Miniatures

The second Geek Girls Rule! Podcast: An interview with Sherry Yeary, Privateer Press President.

We talk about the history of the company, their new product Monsterpocalypse, Hordes, their female characters and minis, and the furor over the Agonizer.

So, I didn't really know where to place this. Is it a blog entry? Is it a story? Who knows.

At any rate, I wanted to ask the Gamer Chicks about painting miniatures. How many of you paint your own minis? Do any of you have a company you prefer over others? How long have you been painting? Are there painting tips to offer? Do you have a book title or two to throw out to the newbies (i.e. me).

I am very much inclined to like Privateer Press for many reasons, great games, wonderful customer service, high quality metal minis, and last but certainly not least, the Page 5 philosophy. It's what really won me over to Warmachine.

Now at first glance the Page 5 philosophy feels a bit misogynistic, and makes Warmachine out to be a boys only club.
