Is it spring yet? Well,
it seems this blog has confused the seasons and was hibernating during all of this beautiful
summer. I often thought about posting, but real life was extremly busy - a little
future wargamer has arrived in our familiy and my doctoral thesis has reached its
final phase. Under these circumstances hobby time is
extremly scarce, so I had to decide whether to actually paint and game or just
to write/blog about it.
While
the volume of what I get finished these days is insignificant when compared to
earlier times, I still got some projects on the way. The most important of which does appear on page 60 of the current issue of Wargames Soldiers & Strategy (#69), and I‘ve
enjoyed this very much.

I‘ll
come back to other projects I‘ve worked on in later posts but want to use this
one for the question what acrylic paste or sealant to use in the mat building
process. I couldn‘t post a link to Amazon in my article in WSS, but I‘ll post
it here (no, I don't have a contract with Amazon, so please go ahead and buy it wherever you like).
So if you want to (considerably) dirty your hands with your own gaming
mat - workshop, I‘ll recommend this product (if you are ordering from Germany
or don‘t mind oversea postage):
An
alternative from Amazon UK which sohould work fine, too (although I have not
worked with it myself) is this product:
If
anyone uses it, please be so kind and give me a feedback if your content with
it.
I
guess there will be a follow up article in WSS, but first I‘m looking forward
to see this one in print.
Best
regards to all of you and thanks for your visit,
Tobi
