Good Blogs to follow?
« on: February 04, 2016, 11:35:22 AM »
Anyone have some good suggestions for blogs to follow?  I enjoy all manner of periods and genres.  I follow a number of them, but I'm always on the lookout for quality blogs.

What kind of blog are you looking for?  Eye-candy, or instructional, or people waxing poetic on the theory/culture of gaming?  Any particular theme/genre you prefer?  I find myself listening to far more podcasts than viewing blogs --- but it's nice to stumble on something if a person has a similar interest.

Thanks for the suggestions,  mosstrooper I've added your blog to my list! 

Thanks for the suggestions Atheling

Elbows:  I like eye candy and instructional - I mostly paint fantasy and historical figures (mainly dark ages) but I do have a 40K background so enjoy SciFi as well.  I haven't really caught onto the whole podcast, but I would be interested in some good ones.
