Weekly Update

Last Week at Wargaming Tradecraft

Happy Canada Day and (early) Independence Day!

Not much going on yet, was kinda sick last week and visiting family this past weekend BUT I have started working again.. on some Hordeblood painting and terrain, as well as finishing my detailed water tutorial. Expect some updates this week. If you've been following my Facebook or Twitter, then you also know about some of the awesomeness that I created this weekend.

I've also made a few tweaks to the Network page and it is open for business, so take a read and sign up!

Also, I'm nearly caught up reading all my blogs since the Headshots charity devoured my time... so for your viewing pleasure, here's a bunch of great links... Next week I'm hoping to be fully caught up, and maybe even have a chance to go through all the art updates on DeviantArt.
