Paint All The Minis Paint Ramble

Hey there! I sit and chat with a wide ranging set of individuals from both inside and on the outside of the Tabletop/RPG/Boardgame industry about their experience, insight, & motivations. Put on a show whilst you are painting and hear the stories behind your fellow geekers and the people that created the games you know and love. I hope you enjoy.

Ep 222: Robert Salters (Battlespace, Rusty Dagger, Heroes Among Us) 07/09/2023

Ep 222: Robert Salters (Battlespace, Rusty Dagger, Heroes Among Us) In this episode, I speak to Robert Salters who writes mini-agnostic rule sets. You hear about them in the show, but the one you may know of most is Battlespace, an ultra-modern solo/co-op rule set with some interesting mechanics, which you will hear about in the chat. It was fun to talk to Robert, and I thank him on our behalf for taking the time to chat. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/27409152

Ep 221: Dave Taylor (The Art of) 05/05/2023

Ep 221: Dave Taylor (The Art of) In this episode, I speak to Dave Taylor the Publisher extraordinaire. Dave finds miniature painters who are interesting and who he feels are deserving of a spotlight in which to express their ethos and skill. These books are called The Art Of and you can do a bit of a search for them if you want and see if they tickle your fancy. I think Dave is an interesting guy and it is an interesting concept so check it out if you want. Check out ep 177 for a little more insight into Dave and his history, we dont talk about it in this show, so maybe refresh by listening to that before you slide the whip off the underpants of this episode. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/26752698

Ep 220: Hobby Chinwag (Matt McLean) 04/30/2023

Ep 220: Hobby Chinwag (Matt McLean) Yo, Just a bit of hobby chat. A hobby shart of a convo fer'yer. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/26693265

Ep 218: Travis H of Tabletop CP Youtube Channel 03/30/2023

Ep 218: Travis H of Tabletop CP Youtube Channel In this episode I speak once again to Travis from the Tabletop CP YouTube channel. Travis is a friend of the show and we spoke in Ep 160 about Travis’ love for Chain of Command and also about the early years of Tabletop CP, so you can listen to that first if you would like. In the episode we chat about Bond, hobbying, his love of painting horses, and general health & diet, plus also plans for Tabletop CP. I enjoyed my time talking to Travis and appreciated him coming back onto the show! /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/26388561

Ep 217: Casey "Ya'Boi" Madden (Fellow Nerd) 02/10/2023

Ep 217: Casey "Ya'Boi" Madden (Fellow Nerd) In this episode I speak Mr Casey Madden, a hobby nerd just like you and me. We shoot the breeze about being an average nerd, about completion, and about items we use. Always fun to chat to a fellow nerd and it was a blessing to speak to such a stand up fellow such as Casey. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/25886334

Ep 216: Scott Radom 10/03/2022

Ep 216: Scott Radom In this episode I speak to Mr Scott Radom, a long serving Paint All The Minis page member, awesome painter, and positive contributor. We talk about his roots in Canada, his early playing & tournament experience, his move into trying to paint his minis at a higher level and most, most, importantly his profile picture. It was a pleasure talking to Scott and getting to know someone you have e-known for such a long time but never had a super long actual conversation with. Its a bit weird at times in the modern world isnt it. You can end up with friends who you never never physically seen, with names like Swampwombat34 or whatever. So it was nice to talk to Scott for a full episode and pad out more of the fuzzy image I had of him. I hope you guys are all ok and doing well. Dont forget to reach out and message if you feel the need, its always nice to connect with you all. If you want to have a sniff around our Discord server then just email and you can come and participate in our weekly quiz, weekly online league, monthly painting activity and loads more. Its the full package of caring for our fellow nerds. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/24561432

Ep 215: Dave Baker Trenchworx 07/07/2022

Ep 215: Dave Baker Trenchworx In this episode I speak once more to the awesome Dave Baker of Trenchworx. Trenchworx work out of Utah in the US and A and help companies create and produce minis for their games along with doing an awesome range of their own. If you want to hear more about history and initial steps from trenchworx then go back to Ep 120 and you can hear from Dave when we met for round one. In this episode we talk about their new venture into releasing STL files for 3d printing and also 3d printing in general. 3d printing is a new thing for me that I very recently started to discover. I will be doing some episodes over the next weeks and months talking to people in this area as it is an area that has been growing and developing over recent history and its pretty cool. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/23664362

Ep 214: Thinking about and ACTUALLY playing more 04/22/2022

Ep 214: Thinking about and ACTUALLY playing more Hey, In this episode a joint venture with Matthew from Bedroom Battlefields ( ) we chat about common reasons why we cant play and some things we can all do to play as we see fit. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/22873835

Ep 213: Opinions on Kickstarter with Zach 03/10/2022

Ep 213: Opinions on Kickstarter with Zach We talk about our feelings and observations about Kickstarter, we recorded this on our PATM discord server (email if you want in to this) and my job in the chat was to voice my own ideas on KS but also to play devils advocate at times and tease out Zach’s ideas and views. It was an interesting conversation and one I feel we all need to have with ourselves if we havent already as personal control and knowing yourself is critical if you are going to make more decisions that you believe to be correct than otherwise. Knowing what you like/dont what makes you feel good/doesnt is imperative so that we aren’t used as a tool by others for their own intended aims. We tried to make the chat balanced, positive, and insightful, giving us both, and possibly yourself food for thought about your own antics and actions, but that is up to you isnt it. It doesnt matter what I say and do, that doesnt affect you, it all comes down to you, and if you are happy then do that, if you aren’t then try something else. I will leave it there as I dont want to tread on the episodes toes, as mentioned already if you want to talk about more stuff like this then grab your space hopper and bounce on over to the PATM discord as I always value external input when figuring out my own direction on things. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/22401746

Ep 212: Kelly B 03/03/2022

Ep 212: Kelly B In this episode I speak to Kelly who talks to use about DnD, about character creation, evolution, and representation on the tabletop. This is another show I recorded ages ago, sorry to Kelly for how long it took to come out, it bears no reflection on my enjoyment of the conversation. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/22320974

Ep 211: Nick Komarev 11/19/2021

Ep 211: Nick Komarev Hello and welcome to episode 210 of the paint all the minis paint ramble podcast. The show where we strip everything back and just have a relaxed chat with someone who’s as into the hobby as you are, In this episode I speak to Nick Komarev a normal hobby man just like you and me. We talk about his hobby journey and his love of Star Wars Armada. I’m releasing this now as he just posted about his vasectomy on our discord, so I thought he can listen to this whilst his nads get better. Put some ice on them Nick and all will be well. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/21220634

Ep 209: Andy 'The Beard' The Beardclipper YouTube channel 10/15/2021

Ep 209: Andy 'The Beard' The Beardclipper YouTube channel In this episode I speak to Andy, aka the beard, aka The Beardclipper of the beard clipper YouTube channel. Its a YouTube channel that genuinely reflects one man’s journey into and through this amazing hobby. The best chats I have are always with people of genuine care and passion and Andy is certainly one. The intro is brief as I wont lie, this episode has been sitting in the podbank for aeons and its about time it has its 10 minutes in the sun, I must apologies profusely to Andy for not releasing sooner, it is no reflection of my thoughts on his episode, I just stepped away at the time it was due to be released. I hope you enjoy! /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/20827472

Special wee prezzie episode : A good old ramble about time...time, and content consumption... Heyyyyy, It's been too long, you bunch of Mother'lickers!! Matt hit me up to have a chat on his show about our hobby time, how we find it, when should we hobby, and how much. Thanks to Matt for the invite plus also suggesting we could put it up on our regular stream too. You can find his podcast here: If you want so save yourself some time then: Find the time as you can, make yourself do it, unless that harms you, in which case dont do it, but dont then moan! haha, but ultimately just do what you want. Oh, I also have a bit of a vent on content production, whilst also being incredibly respectful of how hard it is to create content and also who am I to poo poo it! Enjoy, hope to be back chatting more in the future, I miss you all, but not you...you I dont miss. Dan.xxx /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/20226383

Ep 205: Foust (VFI Asia: Making games you love more accessible around the world) 04/16/2021

Ep 205: Foust (VFI Asia: Making games you love more accessible around the world) In this episode I speak to Foust the creator of VFI a company that works with games creators and publishers to make Asia and other places around the world more accessible for their games. In kickstarters especially it is sometimes a drag to get the games you want because of shipping costs, customs paperwork, and taxes. Foust is working to alleviate a lot of these issues and allow more people to play more games for less money, a modern day super hero!!! We have the usual chat about hobby and background along with insight into what he does, why, and how. It was a pleasure speaking to him and getting to know him, just today infact I received a new unmatched expansion and some Stormcrow Dervishes for A Song of Ice and Fire, thanks! I hope you enjoy the show. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/18748904

Ep 204: Brian (Weird World War II Youtube Channel) 04/02/2021

Ep 204: Brian (Weird World War II Youtube Channel) In this episode I speak to Brian of the Weird World War II YouTube channel. Brian is a big fan of what he refers to as ‘Free Range Gaming’, which is in essence making the game fit you instead of you fitting to the game. It is a refreshing concept and his whole demeanour is one of positivity and experimentation. If you havent checked out Weird World War II as a YouTube channel then do so if you listen to Brian and appreciate his ethos. We have the usual ramble around the hobby and it was a fun chat, we both hope you enjoy. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/18578828

I must take some time to thank Mike for appearing on the show once more, it was a fun chat. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/18008198

Ep 199: Paul Beccarelli (War gamer & Hobbyist) 12/25/2020

Ep 199: Paul Beccarelli (War gamer & Hobbyist) In this episode I speak to Paul Beccarelli aka Beccas about his personal hobby journey and a little about his Youtube channel. I’m not sure how I first heard about Paul but at every interaction he has shown himself to be a positive and caring member of the world hobby community. I enjoyed finally getting the opportunity to talk to him about his journey from humble beginnings in Bull Bollock Australia to where he now lives in Perth. In the chat Paul and I discuss a number of topics on our meandering chat, I hope you enjoy it, the chat was recorded with a live audience on our Discord channel and we rolled right over into a live post ramble ramble, so stick around for that if you’d like. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/17325572

Ep 198: Pete The Wargamer (Youtuber) 12/18/2020

Ep 198: Pete The Wargamer (Youtuber) This episode I have a second chat with Pete The Wargamer. Pete is probably my favorite YouTube video content producer, I just love his style, his method, and his content in general. Plus he is a fun and interesting guy to boot. We talked back in ep 31 so if you want a bit more of an introduction to him and his channel then you can go and listen to that first. In this episode we delve a bit deeper into his craft, his evolution, and peripheral bonuses that have come his way, plus also a chin wag about a great many other things. As ever I am thankful for the opportunity to have spoken to Pete and I hope you enjoy the show. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/17245598

Ep 197: Thibaud (Triton Noir) 12/11/2020

Ep 197: Thibaud (Triton Noir) This episode I speak again to Thibaud de la Touanne of Triton Noir. Triton Noir produce the excellent V Commandos game, the upcoming Assassins Creed: Brotherhood of Venice….AAAAAAANDD the upcoming V Commandos deluxe edition coming in the first half of 2021. I spoke to Thibaud back on episode 128 where we talked about his personal history plus a little of V Commandos and Assassins Creed. This time we catch up with what has changed for him over the last year along with developments in Assassins Creed and finish up with some details about the nw 3d and gameplay elements being added to V Commandos. We also take some time to chat about inspirations and ethos when it comes to games design, I always enjoy those parts of the chats most. So if you are here to listen to juicy details about a new Kickstarter then PATM is probably never for you. Its about the stories and backgrounds of these things. Loads of people would do a much better job than me talking about the campaign. I must thank Thibaud for taking some time to talk to me about himself and his company, it is always a pleasurable experience. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/17153915

Ep 196: Matthew K (Fellow Nerd) 12/04/2020

Ep 196: Matthew K (Fellow Nerd) This episode I speak to yet another fellow nerd in the form of Matthew Kozikowski. A while ago Matthew was a founder member of Dark Omen, and a podcast called Forgot to Feat. Matthew and I talk banana bets, clam chowder, nut meggers, along with his hobby journey, his family life, and how he is more and more drawn to both mini agnostic games, and dead games which are no longer supported by their founding companies, such as GW’s Warmaster game. It was a pleasure speaking to Matthew and getting to know him and there are certainly other podcasts to come to you from him, I look forward to them. I hope you enjoy the chat…. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/17062853

Ep 195: Hubert (Fellow Nerd) 11/27/2020

Ep 195: Hubert (Fellow Nerd) This episode I speak to Hubert, a native of Poland and a member of our PATM discord server. I am going to keep it very short and sweet this week as the charm of this episode was simply getting to know him, his opinions, his history, and other peripheral parts of him as a person and how he fits into our hobby. It was great talking to, and getting to know him. /episode/index/show/patmramble/id/16973120
