Title: (Strange Aeons) Fame at last!
Post by: Uncle Mike on December 21, 2008, 04:19:23 PM: Well, o.k. not fame exactly but still! I was featured on an episode of The Circuit in regards to Strange Aeons and all things miniature...I look good I think. And all the footage of me looking shifty has been edited out. And best of all I'm on the same show as The Spirit and Gwar!!! Man I love Gwar...anyways why not watch it and then you could post back stuff like, "I thought you would have more hair" or "Are you behind the shaved gorilla?" ...stuff like that.

Post by: Rhoderic on December 21, 2008, 05:04:46 PM: I might sound really ignorant asking this, and I hope it doesn't detract from your joy, but what's The Circuit? I checked on Google and Wikipedia, and didn't find anything that seemed right.

Congrats none the less :)

May I give you some advice? >:D
...whatever! umm, are those GW brushes? Cause if they are, you should pick up some Rafael Kolinsky brushes!
They are abit more expensive than GW but better quality!

Nice looking minis and terrain by the way ;) :D

Post by: Uncle Mike on January 04, 2009, 03:20:59 PM: Thanx for the kind words all. Thanx to Brett for posting that link. Sorry about the GW brushes but for the price and useability they are great...especially when teaching how to paint. Already have my number one groupie at home so I won't be needing any more and lastly, the beautifully painted fishman (yes with the nice base) that is pictured when I'm talking about, 'ownership and the joys of painting your own models'...is not mine. It was done up by a friend of mine. Ahh tellie.

...still, moving pictures and sound!!! :D

ps. I thot you'd have more hair! haha

Post by: Bako on January 11, 2009, 03:09:16 AM: Ah very nice, now I know whom to look for when I do eventually get my Albertan arse back over there :) (whenever that'll be o.0).

Post by: Uncle Mike on January 13, 2009, 02:42:03 PM: This year I plan on gaining another 20-40 pounds, loosing more hair and growing a silly moustache, so it may be a little more difficult to spot me the longer you wait... :D

Definite addition to my collection for some Lovecraft-esque lovin'.

Post by: Argonor on March 04, 2009, 07:17:49 PM: How's the game coming on? Any release dates, yet?
Title: Re: (Strange Aeons) Fame at last!
Post by: Uncle Mike on March 05, 2009, 01:32:54 AM: No firm date yet. The book will for sure be finished by the end of March (adding more art and photos and rounding it out a bit...changing a few things 'round ect.) and then it will be off to the printers...whoever they may be. At that stage I would hope to have an official 'release date' to share with you all. I'll see about getting some more photos of some of the newer models to whet the ol' eldritch appetites and placate grumbblers. More when I know more...

Post by: Argonor on March 05, 2009, 10:09:30 AM: ;D

Am exited about this - especially as I can use the minis from this game with those I already have for Pulp - and the monstosities also for Victorian Weird Adventure.

Now, back to work.... o_o
