The PulpRev Sampler

Maybe you’ve been sitting on the fence, not sure whether these loud mouthed PulpRev guys really can back up their pulp talk with a little pulp walk.  No doubt, the crowd has an online swagger and confidence about their understanding of the pulp works and how to recreate the...

Devil Dogs!

Just in time for Halloween, here’s a pack of great big Devil Dogs from Splintered Light miniatures.  They are listed as Dire Wolves, but I decided to give them a considerably more demonic cast....

Halloween – A Christian Holiday

Time once again for your annual reminder that in a lot of ways the secular holiday of Halloween is, in fact, one of the single most Christian holidays celebrated by Americans. It is a unique blend of sacred and civic holiday and one well worth preserving in its most...

Owlbears!

Having fun painting up a few more critters for the tabletop.  Here’s a few fun owlbears for your dining and dancing pleasure.  If you ever wanted to know how big Splintered Light’s owlbears are, here’s your chance to find out....

Why PulpRev?

Late in the most recent episode of Geek Gab, the inestimable host asks (relative) newcomer to the PulpRev a very interesting question: Why Pulp Revolution?  Her answer  (at 35:00) is very telling: “The enthusiasm.” It was great to hear that question asked of Dominika.  Her first novella, I, The...

All Together Now

Time for a table reveal!  Now that the basics of my fantasy table are done, we can see what the whole thing looks like when put together.  Let’s start with a cluttered town setting. Downright bucolic, ain’t it? The kind of streets ready to run red with blood. Nothing...

Space Princess: The Early Review

That all-important first review came in over the transom, and it is a beauty, not the least of which because it came in from somebody who has never read any of my other works: I knew I wasn’t the only Catholic lunatic writing speculative fiction that rests on a Christian...
