Hello hello hello, you magnificent bunch!

It's NEW VIDEO MONDAY (that's not a thing)

I've had a wild couple of weeks! After lots of back and forth, chatting to the folks at TTCombat about a potential collaboration in the form of MY VERY FIRST PAINT SET, I went on a little (900 mile) business trip to actually meet them in the flesh, see their operation, and get a gauge on who they are, what they do, and how they do it.

Honestly, I was blown away!

It's something I've been working on trying to bring about for almost 5 years now, and have spoken to so many different paint companies and distributors I've almost lost count... so seeing the finish line in sight is, well, it's incredible. I'm really excited to share more news about that, but I thought I'd take the "final draft" set for a spin on some awesome, fun minis... and also cover a game I've been wanting to for a while now.

In this video, I talk about what Rumbleslam is, share my history and passion for pro wrestling, and show you how to get the minis included in the starter set all painted up, quick and easy.

I'd love to hear what you think about... well, anything I've said! Exciting times.

I LOVE YOU!
