Longest-running tabletop wargaming podcast on the planet!
This is the video that Youtube removed claiming it violated one or more of their community guidelines.
See for yourself how objectionable it is.
We also apologize for the audio quality halfway through. Our audio came through Joerg’s speakers and then it was picked up by his mic to feed it back into the livestream.

We all have projects we started and then ignored for awhile. My biggest issue is when I put a wash on something and wait for it to dry overnight, only to immediately start on something else and ignore the first project. This is one of the reasons why when I’m painting my D&D monsters and NPCs I stop after the wash and simply seal them. I don’t need to have a top notch paint job on a monster who will hit the table once or twice, so it’s base coat, wash, heavy varnish since it’ll be abused, and shoved in the plastic tubs I keep them in.
Unfortunately wargamers are basically hoarders. Every single wargamer that I know, and role player for that matter, has piles of unfinished projects, rule books and instruction sheets from everything they’ve ever done. 14 pairs of spare arms from a finished box of plastic infantry? Better keep them, you never know when you’ll need 30 left arms that only hold a specific SMG!
This is part 3 of my multi part series which will cover the basics of miniature painting from the materials to finishing. The month is painting the eyes.
Supplies have been bought (Part 1) and prep is complete (Part 2). Now it’s time to get some paint on that mini! Let the fun begin.
Where to begin on this blank canvas…I mean mini? Look no further than painting the eyes.
