What To Do When A Baby Chokes On Phlegm

Games Workshop miniatures and scenery

The blog is the WA forum and the forum, despite its name does not focus exclusively and Cerradicas Warhammer Fantasy or 40K. Fortunately we have much more to talk about in that forum, to be given a tour of all the topics you can talk on this ... yes, we like to paint miniatures and play with them, but we're people like anyone, just that monkeys paint, scale models and other things related to this little art (many are in charge of making it big).

The title of the post leaves the company, company or corporation, I can not define it exactly, that was what brought us this game a while ago. GW bought the rights to a game called Hero Quest (we all sound familiar, even those who never played) in the 80's and with the passage of time and some people have what is now Warhammer Fantasy; More than a game or an RPG, is a completely fictional world, the medieval theme is my favorite for a long time and if you have a little curiosity will realize that every race is a universe immersed in another, for this is that the game and the universe of WF hardly get bored ...

... but if that were the case there is more than armor, swords, shields, axes and hammers, who said we can not use a plasma rifle? (Sorry if not used plasma rifles 40K, I have not played ... yet)

So, besides the knights have 'the future' as we all imagine it's smaller ... or something like that. It's a future a little too conflict but not better or worse than Fantasy, I'm not in a position to judge whether one is better than another and I'm still a novice in the subject, but that does not stop anyone from enjoying a good game of 40K, (if you've seen movies like Back to the Future , Alien vs Predator or The War of the Worlds [classic version, the new is not worth] know what it feels like to see a game of 40K).

And guess what? the thing does not end here. Do you like The Lord of the Rings? There is something for even custom made for you. Could also call him a different universe to those already mentioned, but we already know a bit without us got into the hobby. Tolkien's work in miniatures and models have the advantage that the miniatures of this game are more realistic and less cartoonish than in the other universes (though sometimes not know if that is an advantage because they are smaller than those of Fantasy and 40K).

ended the post by mentioning those who can not miss, Warhammer Historical. Possibly my favorite (even more than my dwarf Fantasy) and that I have not even a piece of them. They have many details and paint me as a real challenge that I intend to win someday. Roman, Napoleonic, First and Second World Wars, Vietnam, and much more.

Anything more? Is not that enough? Broadly speaking, this is the reason why I think the Warhammer as * HOBBY * at the same level as the D & D.

Now, I leave a collection of links that we MUST visit like I did :

Notes:

Why maps?

Because they look like a good way to show how wide is the universe of Warhammer.

Why Roman legionaries?

For emblematic, at least for me ... well to put a world map would have been very interesting to say.

25th Birthday Quotes For An Estranged Son



First of all I would like to introduce myself, I'm Galarion a new contributor to the blog of WA. My blogger alias is different, but that is more relevant.

The reason for this post is also to appear, let them know at all who pass by here a few things that caught my attention a lot of WA forum and my testimony in the community for everyone to encourage all bloggers who are reluctant to enter the hobby.

The Artist's corner is the name of the most visited section of the blog. In this section you can find a lot of things: Stories and competitions (of which was discussed in other posts) as well as sections of thumbnail photos and Model , not everything is set within this forum.

In the photo section you can see the armies of the foreros or just some of the miniatures, you can resolve your doubts about the painting and detailed thumbnails in this section, all the advice given here is worth taking them into account. Very worthwhile to shop around and I can say without the slightest fear of contradiction that the forum we have quite a full-fledged artists, and many people without being artists will leave you with good taste in your mouth after seeing his work . Then I mentioned a few posts that, in my humble opinion, are quite good and serve as evidence to support what I said about the artists we have in the forum:

  • Fire dwarf, is the title of a post Bron-K user. Use dwarf and include not only painting miniatures is excellent also in terms of modifying and creating scenery or say.
  • WIP Wolf Priest, is the title this small set of photos of a SpaceWolf 40k, I'm not familiar with 40K but all the thumbnails I think wolves are the ones I like. TherosSWG We thank you for allowing us to see their work.
  • Our Army, the title does not require further explanation, are photos of the armies of different member, is like a huge gallery of miniatures, almost like walking into a small museum online what if I recommend you join? Sure! Here you will see many more thumbnails just mentioned.

What if there is more? Yes, there is more, only on thumbnail Photo subforum there are 78 pages of items to see, from questions, tips, ideas, or miniature armies isolated. What are you waiting for?!

Now let's talk about another section, the Model. This place is really impressive, if you think you saw all round by the photo section you're wrong, there's more to do, much more. For example:

  • Altar Morr, this is an idea in progress that I think is running excellent. He gratefully acknowledges Williams-Von-Krauss for sharing your idea forera community. It is recommended that you see all the topic and read the comments in order to give a better idea of \u200b\u200bhow it was built around, in addition to the more advanced one in the longer line will be surprised by the photos.
  • 40k metal buildings, the title of one of many works of Pablo_El_Marques. If you like the 40k pays to shop around to this post. They are simple pieces to give more feeling the board and if you pass to see all your gallery, you realize you do not use foreign materials or anything unusual, almost everything is in art stores or modeling.
  • Concerns Model, miscellaneous painting and a theme that I think part of the backbone of this subforum. With over 6 years active continues to talk about and is a place where they can ask your question to the most knowledgeable on the subject to have a better outcome in your projects. Well say there is no experience like their own, but others also helps. Thanks to The_ecleptic_shifty to open the topic.

Now I want to talk a bit about my experience in the forum. In my city few people in the hobby, and most people my age prefer many other things not worth mentioning.

When you start not know anything besides that I had to paint and I did, paint much as I could and were wrong, even though I explained some known as things did not seem to improve, that's when I found the forum and their advice, and took a little more practice, things changed and now I think I have improved my quality of artist a bit.

forum

People are friendly and everyone is willing to help when it hinders you, can not you post a question and never answer you, someone on the forum know how to help. There

experts in the hobby in all its aspects from the thumbnails on the stage to people who can help improve your army for a good fight, do not think about losing The hobby is not your thing all start losing (to date I have not won more than 1 time).

The only thing I regret since I went to the forum is not to be so active lately, which I intend to fix from now through this blog. This was Galarion
