Armored Brush is a new endeavor I'm starting with my Canadian pal Jason Sao Bento (@Jay21Art). As many of you may or may not know, my style is heavily influenced by my geeky background in wargaming. While vinyl eats up most of my time these days, I've been pushing hard to get back to my roots. Armored Brush is the first step in that direction.

As you can see, Jason has already been busy building our site and doing a couple tutorial videos. Expect more of this from both of us soon. We'll also be doing product reviews, releasing our own base kits, dioramas, and a ton of other cool features. While we're still in our infancy, we already have a plethora of ideas stored up for all of you.

We'll be focusing not only on wargaming, but also on models, kaiju, and any other related hobbies we've dabbled in over the years. Between the two of us, we've learned a lot of helpful hints and tips through trial and error. Now it's time to share those tips.

Yup, been a nerd for a long time haha. Unfortunately I don't have any painted mini pics right now, but I'm working on correcting that. In between commissions right now, I'm working on my first Gundam kit. Figured it was high time I gave one a go. So I'll be sharing those WIP pics soon. But we won't only be focusing on models alone, we'll also be showing fx tutorials and such :) A lot more to come, just finally getting the time to hammer away at it all.

I've got an old school "warhammer" figure somewhere in my attic I think. I hope it didn't get thrown away during my move. I bought it as a kid and tried to paint it. I gotta find it, strip it, and start over. What kind of glue do you use for lead figures tho?

Dude I plan on asking you a lot of questions. My buddies and I sometimes play D & D. Yeah that's right. You may be a nerd but I'm a SUPER NERD! But yea we just got into it maybe a month ago and I'm trying to find some old pieces and put them together and paint 'em.

Nice! I've got a ton of old school GW minis laying around my place. Most of them will become fodder at this point, but there are some that I've held onto for a long time that I plan on doing some dioramas with. For the pewter figs you could use Zap products, most of them will bond just about anything.

Feel free to fire away on the site and we'll do out best to help you out :) Nice man!! Sounds like a lot of fun to me haha. Post some pics when you get started.

Here's today's post "When Plans Don't Go As Planned"
