I am. It is hard to come up with a fresh interesting non-controversial question everyday. W.O.O.F takes over tomorrow. All Hail W.O.O.F !!

GreyHawk/Oerth for sure, Ravenloft, Mystara—I guess that is the name of the planet?—probably. So three, perhaps four, if there is one I am forgetting. 

 

Homebrews were not really part of this question.

No, I could not, but several of you have been extremely helpful with getting a list together.

I once converted one to be an old forum Avatar—but I never got round to painting it. Which boils down to no.

28: Yes-ish.  The end of February also means the end of non-playoff hockey.  I like hockey, and am not eager for the regular season to end.  The end of February also means that mowing season is just around the corner.  I don't like mowing.

 

29:  Oerth, Sigil (Planescape), Athas (Dark Sun), Ravenloft, and Mystara--and that's about all I can name.  I only know Eberron, Faerun, Kara-Tur, and Krynn beyond that list.  

 

30:  Not yet.  I did an idealized (skinnier) HeroForge version of myself more suited to a post-apocalyptic game, but have yet to paint it.

Yes and no.  Yes because tax return is that much closer, no because February doesn't really phase me in any particular way.  It's winter here, just wish it was more consistent.

Question, Feb 27th—

Miniature Monday: Minis often need bigger, better, or different bases: did you know that the Base Boss 2 Pledge Manager closes down tomorrow? (on the 28th!) Are you locked in? 

 

 

I am now.

 

Full disclosure: I kinda did this question as a reminder to myself to get this done. But also as a PSA for other forum dwellers.

Never saw an announcement or banner about it on the forums [?] @Reaper_Jon ?

It was mentioned in Update #16 on Kickstarter - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/reaperbones5/base-boss-2-new-bases-and-base-top-inserts/posts/3734681

 

11 days of notice.  That February 3rd update they referred to in update 15 sure was late getting posted though (it was posted February 17th, which means they skipped a planned update)

Feb is so-so. But I get paid the first of the month, so I'm glad the month's over for that reason.

 

I don't dnd.

 

I did take a selfie of my eye and put it through power palette to paint a mini eye beast.

28 - Indifferent, it's just another Month.

 

29- I only play pc games, dabbled in a handful of Warhammer and Heroquest in my youth but nowadays I only paint and build for fun.

 

30- No, but others painted the Glitterwolf and send it to me and I did paint Brutus my Boxer dog and Odin my former Boxer Dog as minis and even a bust for Brutus.

The Glitterwolf was painted and gifted by @knarthex, the Glitterwolf Pendant was painted and gifted by @ub3r_n3rd!

I was blissfully unaware of Base Boss. I do have quite a lot of Reaper plastic bases, but lately I have been using LITKO wooden bases.

I am also a big fan of Litko.

-- None. Zero. In those early days we made up our own worlds. 

I made a. few of those too. I think more than the TSR places I ever wandered into.

I'll try anything on a cheeseburger, as long as it's something I can eat. The more interesting stuff the better, as long as it doesn't get so big I can't fit it in my mouth.

One of the more interesting cheeseburgers I ever had involved grilled beef (open flame) blue cheese, some other white cheese, a seared grilled slice of a green apple, and diced grilled onions. Don't remember if it had a dressing.

Apparently Inky would hop out of his tank and go on a hop about most nights and be back in his tank in the morning,  We moved the tank and added an insurmountable obstacle to stop that.

What are we going to do tonight? The same thing we do every night Inky, try and take over the world !!

 

 

Speaking of which, new month, new thread: ALL HAIL W.O.O.F !!
