Jason: Well folks, it seems it’s that time again - another issue of Irregular Magazine is

on the virtual shelf, and what a jam-packed issue we have for you all. We have an-

other another supplement, though I let Nick discuss that particular goody, as he was

involved in the writing of it. What else do we have this issue? Another great painting

tutorial by David Heathﬁeld, a new prestige class for Pathﬁnder and another short

story from Taylor, plus a plethora of other goodies including an interview with Nick

Kyme.

So, what have been up to since the last issue? Well I attended a few shows which

included IMP 2010, Euro Militaire and UK Games Day, all of which have articles in this

issue, though not all are written by little ole me. I’ve also started a 12 month mini buy-

ing ban.

No, I haven’t gone bonkers - I just realized that my grey army was getting too big and

so decided on a major challenge for myself. I hit the 40 year mark next October and

decided on a couple of challenges. The ﬁrst is getting ﬁt - yep I did say ﬁt - don’t go

into cardiac arrest folks, just because I mentioned being ﬁt. The other was to paint as

much of my grey army, which can be viewed here, and not buy any new models dur-

ing the following 12 months. I’ll keep you all up-to-date on my progress during the

year, or my lack of it, though hopefully there won’t be a lacking.

What else has been happening? Well, we had our ﬁrst printed issue through Lulu.com

last issue, and few of you bought a copy, which was great. We’ll continue experiment-

ing with this for the time being, as well as continuing with the free PDF.

Next issue we’ll have a Zulu war special in the wargaming section, which will include

an excellent range of articles, tutorials and historical background on the campaign.

The overall theme for issue 7 will be Frontiers, so any potential contributors should

consider that as a guide. Space, fantasy and historical are all potential possibili-

ties. So get the old thinking caps on, and all contributions should be emailed to

irregularmagazine@gmail.com.

Well, that’s all folks, see you next time and enjoy the issue.

Nick: That was a busy few months. For a quick overview, I took part in the Warmachine

European Team Challenge at Maelstrom Games, and helped run the second Irregular

Miniature Paintfest at the end of July - reports on both events are in this issue of the

magazine. Outside of these events, I’ve been working hard on converting the material

my group came up with when we played the Dresden Files into a supplement - while

it is still a work in progress, I hope to make it available during November. On top of

that, there’s been the usual painting and proof-reading going on, so I’m not sure

where the time has gone!

One thing that has been occupying me recently, though, is setting up my new blog

- The Renaissance Gamer. I only launched this last week, but I’ll be adding content as

we head towards the end of the year. If nothing else, you can see how long I manage

to stick with my rationing programme.....

Next issue is going to be themed around Frontiers, and I’m going to be taking a trip

into the ﬁnal frontier as I look at some of the games that have arisen from the Star

Trek franchise. I’ll also be doing a review of the 4th edition of the Legend of the Five

Rings roleplaying game, looking at the core rulebook and the Enemies of the Empire

supplement.

I’ll see you all in the new year.....

Skirmish Painting Competition Results

Back in July we announced our summer painting

competition and it’s sponsor, Dragon Forge Design.

The Skirmish theme inspired action packed poses,

dynamic duels and some classic heroes.

Here’s what the judges had to say about it:

Jason: 9/10 This is a really nice piece, its well painted.

The base is superb, love the tentacle coming out of

the water. A really nice miniature that jumps out at

you, great work.

We had some fantastic entries, from a wide range of

painters and the judges this time around, Nick and

Jason had a tough time calling it on the winner. Each

judge scored each entry out of a possible 10 points,

so there was a maximum of 20. It was really close...but

you don’t want to be kept in suspense any longer, so

here are the details of the winners.

Nick: 9/10 - Nice use of blood effects from the sword.

The base is a little busy for my liking, but the piece is

certainly effective.

Total 18/20

Coming in a very close 2nd place, and winning $30 of

Dragon Forge Design goodies is Kyle Hutcheson with

his Bad Moonz Ork Nob.

In 1st place, and winning $50 worth of Dragon Forge

Design goodies is Andy Mon with his striking Oni

Warau.

Jason: 8/10 - Very nicely done, love the work on the

plinth. This is really nicely presented

Nick: 9/10 - Very nice work on both the skin and the

yellow sections - effective without being garish. Great

detail work on the plinth, too.

Total 17/20

In 3rd place winning $20 of Dragon Forge Design

goodies is Stephane with Convict Gunslinger.

Jason: 8/10 - An interesting piece, nice ﬂesh on the

mini.

Nick: 8/10 - Excellent attention to detail, though the

proof-reader in me is confused as to why ASH is

capitalised when Wastes isn’t. Lovely tones on the skin

and trousers. Good detail work on the base.

Total 16/20

I hope you’ll agree this was a tightly fought contest;

congratulations to the winners and commiserations

to those who missed out this time around - I do hope

you’ll enter another of our competitions to try your

hand again.

Here are some of the fantastic runners up.
