No worries from us about keeping it here, or I can switch it up to 'General Discussion' if you like?

One little bit of advice I'd throw into the mix, I'd aim to have all of the 'bulk' of the content, articles/batreps/features, done and in hand for at least two issues worth of the magazine.  News articles / latest releases / company adverts can all be thrown in relatively quickly, but you don't want to be waiting on that one last article to complete the magazine, as it's very easy for people's real lives to get in the way and you're suddenly left short and unable to go to e-print on time.  Missing deadlines and having potential customers/readers sitting waiting on it will very quickly damage the reputation of the e-zine.

And of course, good luck with it and give me a shout if we can help with anything.  I've got some Pendraken adverts I can send through if/when you need them, and we can promote it through the forum for you as well.

Getagrip has brilliantly suggested a heavy metal section of the mag, great idea, im thinking a 2 page centre spread so we can get some larger pictures, would the winners and runners up who want their work to appear forward pics of their entries to me please with your name and/or tag, with preferred scale and rules so I can give you each the credit you deserve. It will be titled
Not so ' eavy metal

Organised by Pendraken miniatures

Thanks chaps
I've been very busy promoting the magazine so here's hoping we get a decent sized audience, There has been interest from a couple of big names in the hobby, suppose that'll help

So I dont get confused this mag is the same as 'SSQ small scale quarterly E-zine' page on FB,
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

It was actually Peter's suggestion  ;)
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

There is a Warmaster fanzine that includes lists of new non-GW 10/12mm fantasy figures.
