Zine Contents, WFRP art, and Imperial Outpost figure

Hi All,

I'm probably a little behind on the zine but here is what's in the contents so far.


Obviously the page numbers past Old Met'l are bunk and I have to nudge things around some more. I also hate the white frames around the pictures, so I'll be changing that. Serif has some useful features, but I hate most of their picture frames. For some things I need them though.

J. Brisken was at it again and made this sketch of the climactic battle from the end of our last WFRP adventure.



We see Vincent delivering the death blow as Leopold reels back to dodge the acid spurting from his one successful attack.  I've been dragging my feet on spending his xp on his next career. I need to get on it as we are playing this Sunday.

Lastly, here is the figure I'm set to paint for the February painting contest at Imperial Outpost, my local game store, about a 25 minute drive from my house.


It's a Herald of Vulcanis from Super Dungeon Explore by Soda Pop miniatures. I must paint a chibi for my crimes. Anyway, I'llcheck in periodically with this guy as I paint him. I already have a scheme in mind. I won't start him until Wednesday, since it's supposed to be a monthly contest.

Wish me luck with all this.

    1. Thanks Airborne, I am still following the advice that Michael "Millsy" Mills gave me. Better to be late and good than on time and crap.

    1. Hi Ray, cheeky as ever. ;) I believe it's supposed to be that skirt that the Romans wore. Maybe he needs one that dangles a tad more.

  4. Zine page looks great so far mate. I've no submission for this one, depending on topic, hope to offer something to include for the next issue.

    Chibi... ugh.

  5. Thanks Dai, don't sweat it. I think the topic may be specialist games or a game in particular. Yeah, chibi was definitely not what I expected.

    1. Thanks Hugh. Yes, it can seem daunting at times. Hopefully it can be kept up. I'm hoping to get more people to help me out with things. The main thing is that people get encouraged to do the hobby and share the fun they are having with the rest of us.
