I've realised over the past two weeks that the round table is a treasury, filled with wonderful hobby and painting tips.

The links below will take you to some of the best hobby topics I could find, ofcoarse since our halls are vast and infinite there is no way for one person to find them all. Therefor I would like to ask you all to post below the topics you feel are missing and I'll put them into an appropriate section for easy viewing.

Great idea and thanks for the links. It's nice to navigate round these interesting articles without searching for them all.

Well done indeed good sir knight. *claps*

Thanks for the kind words, Luxor. I do realise, though, that this compilation is far from complete. I'm sure there are some great articles out there that are nearly impossible to find save perhaps with the help of some of our round table veterans. Nevertheless, I'll try to undate this post as often as possible.

"A very nice Men at Arms showcase with sculpting tips by quad"

The pictures contained in the above thread are no longer available. Perhaps Quad could upload them to the gallery and relink them, or the link to the thread could be removed.
