Not really an opinion, but I feel like this type of post fits in best under this category. Happy Thanksgiving to all of my readers! I appreciate you guys coming here, leaving comments, and just generally sharing this hobby.

Review | Battle Systems Fantasy Village - Great Coverage for Cost
I've been on a bit of a terrain bender recently. It's a nice break from all of the fine detail painting with miniatures. I have terrain of all sorts, from plastics and MDF to paper. But I came across a company, Battle Systems, that creates terrain made from a dense cardboard material. I decided to give it a try, and you can read on below for my Battle Systems Fantasy Village review.
WIP | Untamed Beasts Paint Scheme
November will be a relatively slow month for the Space Dinosaur, as I'm heading out for a two week adventure. I am, however, working on a couple things that should pop up either this month or in December.
Hobby | Knight of Shrouds (Spooktober)
Before the month completely closes out, I had to get a Spooktober post out, as is tradition. I haven't done much in the way of mini painting recently, as I've been focused on terrain, but I managed to get this one finished. In my army, this model serves as a Knight of Shrouds. In reality, this is a limited edition Bladegheist Revenant named Garkorr.
Tutorial | MDF Fantasy Terrain for Beginners
Are you interested in having a full tables worth of terrain for your wargames? Does the cost of Games Workshop plastic make you consider otherwise? In this post I'll guide you through the in and outs of using MDF terrain for your fantasy tabletop games.
Tutorial | How to Take Photos of Your Miniatures
I have a bit of a love hate relationship with miniature photography. On the one hand, capturing the details of a well painted mini is absolutely important, and requires a white or black background to get those crisp photos. On the other hand, that background is boring as all get out. Minis are cool, but minis belong on the battlefield looking cool. They are part of the scene, and that conveys a story to the viewer that you don't completely get from a static, solid color background. In this post, I'll show you how to take cool miniature photographs, even if you don't have your own studio.
Tutorial | How to Make Raised Platforms for Mordheim or Warcry
For about the past month I've been toiling away at creating some raised platforms for wargaming. This is terrain suitable for Age of Sigmar, Warcry, Mordheim, Frostgrave, you name it. I wanted to add some verticality to my games while holding onto some modularity so that my game boards don't all look the same. I've included some WIP pictures in previous posts, but I have now fully built, painted, and photographed my platforms. I have to say that I'm really happy with how they turned out, and now I'll show you how I made them, plus some glamor shots at the end.
WIP | Elevated Terrain Tiles and Battle Systems Terrain
This last month has been rather quiet here on the Space Dinosaur front. Ordinarily, I prefer to share my hobby stuff here once it's completely done. That works for smaller projects, but right now I'm working on some bigger things that are eating up some time. So, in the spirt of keeping my blog active, here's a sneak peek of some of the upcoming posts.
Review | Dungeons and Lasers III Stretch Goals
Welcome to another review here on the Space Dinosaur, where I'll take a deep dive into a product, game, or technique and offer my opinions and recommendations. Today's post will look at the most recent of Archon Studios' kickstarters to ship, Dungeons and Lasers III.
Hobby | Converted Stormcast Eternals Knight Vexillors
Get your brushes and clippers, and welcome to the Space Dinosaur Hobby Table, where I cover what I've completed recently in the Age of Sigmar hobby, along with a mini-review of the sculpts, how easy they're to paint, and any tips or tricks I can pass on to make your life easier. Today I have not one, but two Knight Vexillors for the Stormcast Eternals.
