Quickly painted my first ever #necron models tonight (just five colors and a @sonicsledgehammer.bsky.social wash over the top).
And for a super quick paint job, I kinda like how they're turning out (though I might tidy up a few areas tomorrow, and then do the bases).
#40k #miniaturepainting
Got some quick paint jobs done this weekend (more chaos cultists)
The two special weapon guys on the left are the new 'damned' models from Wargames Atlantic, and the rest are old GW mini's.
And I think they mix together quite well :)
Next job… finish their bases :)

I'm working on my next project(s) in fits & starts at the moment… which means that it's kinda difficult to set time aside for the making of the actual video tutorial(s).
That being said, I have got some quick & easy barricades done - which have turned out pretty nice I think :)

Another simple terrain idea in the works...

Taking a break to build some junk piles :)

Time for another monthly hobby round-up in the latest newsletter:

Another WIP image - this time for tunnel-like pieces to connect buildings together (like, if you want to make an enclosed compound).
They can also make little porch-like entrances too (like you can see in the picture).
These will be appearing on the channel soon :)

Here's a little personal project I've started - one where I'm repurposing some of my sci-fi designs to make a backdrop of sorts (so this would be the base of a hab-block or similar).
I still need to make several more - but I think this is going to work :) :) :)

As promised... here's the latest terrain tutorial:

I was hoping to get another video out today - but my voice over was thwarted by too much noise from outside
However, here's a sneak peek at the intro - so that you can see what's in store for tomorrow (fingers crossed)

Here's a short newsletter/post detailing some of my hobby projects from last month:

I've caught the sci-fi bug again... and so I've been making some more sci-fi terrain - this time buildings:

(the video above shows how I make 'em)

Here's another puzzle video (albeit a simple one):

Here's a quick look at how the sci-fi hab-units are shaping up.
In the first video/pdf I'll be showing how to make the buildings themselves (in various sizes), and in the second one I'll be adding more details/greebles.
Hopefully it will be worth the wait :)

I've been working on some new #scifi terrain :)
Pictured first is the main structure (which is close to being finalised), and in the second picture you can see my initial prototype (which shows how I'm planning on adding doors, windows, and various greebles

My latest video is live... and in this one I've included a puzzle/trap encounter to accompany the dungeon tiles that I've been making: youtu.be/hlBPxDyv4ro
Hope you like it!

Here's a picture of the 12 episodes that I released over on the channel in 2025 (not including challenges, announcements, bonus videos, etc.).
I also have a couple of pictures of what's coming next in my latest newsletter (if that's of interest):

Following on from my last post, here's a bat-rep style blog post of my first real solo battle using the Age of Fantasy: Quest rules.

I'm playing as an orc patrol in the halls of Moria during Balin's failed re-colonisation attempt.
#onepagerules #sologaming
Gearing up to play some solo games... starting with Age of Fantasy: Quest (by #onepagerules ).
I've posted a quick intro over on the blog...

...with more to follow :)

Here's a quick look (in an attempted 'fly-by' shot) of some of my dwarven terrain (that I've put together for a few Moria-esque games)
Tutorials on how to make it all can be found over on my channel: youtube.com/@CrookedStaf...
(note that it's just paper printouts glued to cardboard)

P.S. if you are a Patreon Supporter / YouTube member, then check the latest post on the relevant platform for this year’s bonus file ;)
Last year I released this bonus video/pdf for my patreon supporters and youtube members.
So, as you can see, this year I thought I’d make it available to everyone else as an early Xmas gift:
youtu.be/0A4DySyehnw
It’s not much – but it might be something you can put to use.
I backed this Kickstarter a while back (from Archmage Press )... and it arrived today!
It's a DMless / solo / co-op adventure for D&D (with some similarities to the fighting fantasy books) - and it also comes with some double-sided battlemaps.
With any luck I'll give it a try over Xmas :)

I think the pdf for my next encounter video is done.
Now, this one does rely on the players keeping a map of the dungeon - but seeing as how that's becoming a bit of a lost art, I've included one they can find (as a player handout) along the way (plus there's space for a few GM notes too).
#dnd
Thanks :)
There’s a good chance that this might be my last video/release of 2025 (how time files 😅)… and in it I’m showing how you can put some of my new (dwarven themed) textures to use:

Seeing as how it's taking a while for me to get the next episode done, there's a little preview video in this month's newsletter (amongst other things):

#ttrpg #dnd #terrain #youtube #miniaturepainting
Here's a quick look at some of the new bits n pieces used alongside some of the existing 'Dwarven' terrain
(there's also a 2nd pic of the new textures)
I hope to film the tutorial next week… but until then, feel free to check out the rest of the range:

Now that I've finished my dwarves, it's time to move on to some Tolkienesque orcs (all of which will be kitbashed/convereted in some way).
Here's a pic of the first batch :)
