A Brand New Year!



Hey Everyone! Welcome to the New Year post on The Art of Caesura!

 I hope you're having a lovely holiday season - all bundled by the fire (or out on the beach, depending on your hemisphere!). Christmas has just past and it's only a few days till New Year - where did this year go!?

 Long time Caesurians will know that I like to save the annual retrospective for the blog's birthday in a couple weeks, so today we'll look ahead at some of the exciting miniatures we'll be exploring in 2019. 

 I'm happy to say that I managed to paint something from every big boxed game that I got this past year. I also managed to finish off painting all of the models from Silver Tower and am just about done the last few busts from The World of Smog: On Her Majesty's Service, I even started my Kharadron Overlords army with a bang. But before I get too comfortable on my laurels, there's still loads of The World of Smog: Rise of Moloch, Zombicide: Green Horde, Necromunda, Blood Bowl and some new additions:

One can always use more Sky Dwarves (my birthday present to myself)! 



My favourite Necromunda gang yet! 



Can't wait to give the Nighthaunt a go, and learn this (seemingly) great game!



My wife preordered this for my birthday I am ridiculously excited about this game (the blurriness of the photo only helps to demonstrate my excitement)! I love Silver Tower and, from what I've read and seen, am stoked for the changes that have been made here. Plus the models are gorgeous!



So how am I going to accomplish all of this you ask? Why with my wife's Christmas present to me: a snazzy new project box!


 See you next week as we get settled into a new year on The Art of Caesura!
Watching: Homecoming
Eating: Turkey, ham, mince pies, cake...everything really.

 A wolf was no less a wolf...

The Full Stop - Oathsworn: Into the Deepwood

The monstrous Deepwood has consumed the land.  No farms or fields remain. There is only corruption, rot and the endless shadow of the twisted trees. ~ Shadowborne Games Pot's Peace, Oathsworn. Welcome to The Art of Caesura! What's all this then, TWO posts in one day!? Well yes, you see timing is of the essence here. Today marks the 200th post of The Art of Caesura , so if you haven't had a chance to check out the celebratory post, please do so !  There is also a Kickstarter ongoing at the moment, that I am getting quite excited by, but it closes on Tuesday, so if I left it till next Friday to tell you about it...it would be too late! Hence, in a world first, two hits of The Art of Caesura in one day! Now onward, into the world of Oathsworn: Into the Deepwood !

The Full Stop - A Deep Dive into Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol

Welcome to Combat Patrol!  Whether you are a new recruit to Warhammer 40,000  or a seasoned veteran,  Combat Patrol is all about getting your forces  into action as quickly as possible. - Combat Patrol Rules - Games Workshop Welcome back to the Art of Caesura! Recent readers will see that we've been looking at our fun little Warhammer gathering, KillCon over the past few weeks. Two weeks ago I provided a narrative verion of my game of Combat Patrol of my Black Templars vs. Tristan's Tyranids where as l ast week I gave a more "gamer oriented" play-by-play of the game.  Today I want to dive deeper into this accessible and engaging game-type. I want to argue that Combat Patrol is not just for beginners. Combat Patrol in 10th Edition is Games Workshop's new smallest scale Warhammer 40k game type. But unlike in previous editions, where it just meant that both sides took 500 point armies and went at it, in this edition, Games Workshop has changed things up a litt...

"The Skinny" - Scale 75 Flesh Paint Set Review

The complexion of a light-skinned face  divides into three zones: The forehead has a light golden colour  because it's freer of muscles and surface capillaries. The ears, cheeks and nose all lie within the central zone of the face.  Those areas have more capillaries carrying oxygenated blood near the surface, causing the reddish colour... The zone from the nose to the chin (where there are relatively more veins carrying blue deoxygenated blood) tends toward a bluish, greenish or greyish colour. Some artists accentuated this subtle bluish or greenish hue to bring out the reddish lip colour. Color and Light (page 156) - James Gurney Welcome all to The Art of Caesura! So I finished all the models in Warhammer Quest Silver Tower!! Wooohooo!! Now for something a bit different!  This week I'm going to do something I've never done on the blog before: write a review!! I've been wanting to write my thoughts on  Scale 75 's Flesh Paint Set fo...
