UMS "Agram" : Exhibition of Miniatures and Tabletop Scenery Agram 2021 < Articles < Hobby

Exhibition of Miniatures and Tabletop Scenery Agram 2021

Marko Paunović, 18th March 2021

Our annual Exhibition of Miniatures and Tabletop Scenery Agram 2021 took place this year from 18.02.-07.03.2021. The setup was done on Wednesday 17.02.2021. in the afternoon. Many club members as well as some friends of the club and members of the local FB group Miniature Painters Croatia came by to help, provided their miniatures and helped with the setting up of the whole event.

We held the grand opening on Thursday, 18.2.2021 starting at 18:00. The Exhibition was organised for our 18th birthday, and during the opening we also held the unveiling of our newest books:

- Miniaturism in the Age of Corona (Collection of Articles about Miniaturism and Modelling), Authors: Marko Paunović, Ana Polanšćak, Goran Krunić, Jure Cukar, Matija Koružnjak, Dalibor Čavić i Krunoslav Belinić

- MONOGRAPH: Our First 18 Years, Authors: Marko Paunović, Ana Polanšćak i Goran Krunić

During the entire Exhibition (up to Mar 7) people were able to get the books at a promotional price and financially help the club.

As always, the exhibition showed a cross-section of the work of the Association, its members, participants in its courses and workshops and members of the FB group Miniature Painters Croatia. In a large number of showcases, there were numerous miniatures for tabletop wargames, board games, and an entire showcase was dedicated to award-winning exhibits from previous miniaturist competitions. Several showcases were dedicated to the projects that the Association has been implementing for 18 years, such as the Library of UMS "Agram", the Terrain Workshop and the Miniature Painting Workshop.

During the first weekend of the Exhibition, on 20.-21.2., we organised a MINIATURE PAINTING WORKSHOP – Horses, Wargs and Birds.

The weekend workshop covered the basics of painting three kinds of animals. The main focus of the workshop was painting of the fur textrue, long and short animal hair as well as feathers. For this, the tutors chose some appropriate miniatures of horses, wargs and birds for the attendees to paint with acrylic paints. The lectures were addapted so the tutors could spend equal ammount of time on each participant and therefore could addapt to all categories of miniature painters (beginer or advanced).

First the tutor sitting behind his desk explained and demonstrated each step of the painting on his example. His work was transmitted over a camera and a digital projector onto a screen in the cinema hall. The pupils watched and listened to the tutor but could also stop him/her and ask questions. Then, the pupils paint their own miniatures copying what they have learned while the tutors walk among them and check their progress. The following themes were covered:

1. Horses – short hair and long hair

2. Wargovi – fur and snout

3. Birds – feathers, beak and claws

The club provided all with the necessary equipment, paints, tools, brushes, lighting, glue as well as a set of paints.

Due to the pandemic, the following epidemiologic measures were enforced:

Correct wearing of masks was obligatory. The Disinfectant was at hand for all to use freely. Camera nad projection screen was used to ensure the social distancing while lecturing and separate tables for all the participants moved 2m apart to ensure the social distancing while the pupils paint.

During the weekend of 27.-28.02. as a part of the Exhibition, we held our 15th annual Black Queen Hobby and Miniature Painting Competition!

In 2021 due to the Covid-19 epidemic, we had some changes in the format of the Black Queen Hobby and Miniature Painting Competition. For the first time, the contestants had to pre-register for the event via e-mail. They then received the exact time when to register at the event (from 8:30 until 11:00). This was to limit the number of people at the venue at the same time.

Here is a quick run down through categories at this year's event:
1. Single Miniature (any 28-35mm single miniature)
2. Mounted and Large Miniature (mounted or large miniatures in 28-35mm scale)
3. Unit / Squad (unit of 5+ minis (28-35mm), or exceptionally 3+ minis (trolls, ogres etc))
4. Masterclass (our most prestigious category, anything goes as long as it's a single entry. Previous Masterclass winners can not compete in the first three categories.)
5. Diorama / Duel (self explanatory, two or more minis locked in combat or in any other interaction on a single base (no limit to the size of the base, if you can bring it, we'll display it!))
6. Open (anything that isn't covered in the categories above – primarily reserved for dragons, monsters, warmachines, but also scenery etc)
7. Bust (busts of any size can go in here)
8. Junior (under 18. The Junior entries will be assigned in the categories above as applicable and will compete with the rest of the entries. However, best three Junior entries in the whole competition will be awarded in Junior category.)
9. BEST OF SHOW (this is a new category which will be sponsored by UMS „Agram“. All of the entries will be judged by our own Ana Polanšćak and the best entry will be awarded a special prize!)

Painting Workshops

The layout of the venue at the Vladimir Horvat Gallery makes it possible to hold several workshops throughout the weekend. Therefore, there were three one-hour workshops on Saturday after the official opening of the competition and three on Sunday before the awards ceremony. This year, the workshops were held in the cinema hall in the basement of the venue. The tutor's work was filmed with a camera and projected on the projection screen in the hall. That way the social distancing could have been maintained. Also, this setup means the workshops were capped at 10 people so registrations for the workshops also took place.

ABOUT THE TUTOR:

MATIJA KORUŽNJAK - has been involved in miniature painting since 1998, where, like many, he stepped through the fantasy world of Warhammer. Although painting was an integral part of the hobby, play and socializing were the main motivators for doing miniatures. After a long yawn during college and early youth, he returns to the world of miniatures in 2017 with a desire to reactivate an old hobby. Encouraged by the work of the FB group Miniature Painters Croatia and the lack of organizational opportunities for meetings with like-minded people, the focus of the hobby shifts from the gaming to painting where the last few years he paints regardless of the scale, system or theme of miniatures.

Necropolis Board part 1

	In October we started with our first board for Necropolis, and with an appropriate theme! – the Eternal Autumn configuration from the Necropolis rulebook. The configuration is such that it only requires 3 trees, which we considered too boring, so instead of one tree, we plan to build a cubic lime kiln and 2 streams.

	  

	The board is inspired by Hawthorne's story Ethan Brand, where several characters talk about the unforgivable sin (next to a lime kiln in the middle of an American pastoral idyll). Aesthetically, we're aiming for early fall with rural motifs, along with gnarled trees (ala Burton's Sleepy Hollow) and a few pumpkins.

	  

	For now, we are very far from any aesthetic choices because we have dealt with the basic structure of the board: the housing is made of pine glued boards for the floor and pine profiles for the sides. After we glued everything with Drvofix, the entire housing was finely sanded. The size of the Styrodur board that fits into the housing is 40cmx40cmx2cm (Necropolis standard is 16"x16").

	  

	The placement of the stream itself was difficult to choose due to the peculiar, angular deployment in Necropolis, so we used token strings to try out a few potential streams that would least interfere with the game. Although we planned to keep our forest streams shallow, we still carved channels with a scalpel and a rotary multitool and coated the beds with diluted texture paste. While the paste dried, we added various sizes of pebbles and created a transition across the stream with larger pebbles.

	  

	The trees are actually real mangroves, so they have natural knots and twists. To add a Sleepy Hollow feel, we hollowed out a few holes in the wood to house the greenstuff faces. We propped up one tree with pieces of pine bark so it wouldn't lean too much and interfere with play.

	  

	The next step is to cover the entire board with a mixture of gypsum and sand and make the stove itself.

    ["content_hrv"]=>

	U listopadu smo započeli s našim prvim boardom za Necropolis, i to s primjerenom tematikom! – Eternal Autumn konfiguracijom iz Necropolis rulebooka. Konfiguracija je takva da nalaže samo 3 stabla, što smo smatrali predosadnim te umjesto jednog stabla kanimo izraditi kockastu vapnenu peć i 2 potoka.

	  

	Board je inspiriran Hawthorneovom pričom Ethan Brand, gdje nekoliko likova priča o neoprostivom grijehu (pored vapnare usred američke pastoralne idile). Estetski ciljamo na ranu jesen s ruralnim motivima, uz kvrgava stabla (ala Burtonov Sleepy Hollow) i nekoliko bundeva.

	  

	Za sada smo jako daleko od ikakvih estetskih odabira jer smo se nosili s osnovnom građom boarda: kućište je napravljeno od borovih lijepljenih dasaka za podni dio i borovih profila za bočne strane. Nakon što smo sve zalijepili drvofixom, cijelo kućište je fino izbrušeno. Veličina stirodur ploče koja sjeda u kućište je 40cmx40cmx2cm (Necropolis standard je 16“x16“).

	  

	Sami smještaj potoka bilo je teško odabrati zbog osebujnog, kutnog deploymenta u Necropolisu pa smo koristili nizove tokena da isprobamo nekoliko potencijalnih tokova koji bi najmanje ometali igru. Iako planiramo da nam šumski potoci budu plitki, i dalje smo skalpelom i rotirajućim multitoolom izrezbarili kanale i premazali korita razrijeđenom teksturnom pastom. Dok se pasta sušila, ubacili smo razne veličine kamenčića i uspostavili prijelaz preko potoka većim kamenčićima.

	  

	Stabla su zapravo pravo mangrovo drvo, tako da ima prirodne kvrge i zavijutke. Kako bismo dodali sleepy hollow šmek, izdubili smo nekolika rupa u drvu gdje bismo smjestili greenstuff lica. Jedno smo drvo poduprli s komadima borove kore kako ne bi bilo previše nagnuti i ometalo igru.

	  

	Sljedeći korak je prekrivanje cijelog boarda smjesom gipsa i pijeska te izrada same peći.

	In early October I had the opportunity to visit my neighbors from the Amuletd20 association. This time it wasn't an artsy Turnip28 event, but a huge tournament in AOS and Conquest games.

	  

	Besides the main event, there were tables playing Kings of War, as well as Warhammer: The Old World, where I came with my Chaos Dwarfs.

	  

	Unfortunately, I think TOW was the least represented with four players, but this little community was wonderful! Players helped each other with the rules and the games were very friendly. In addition to my choirs, there was also an army of High Elves at the event, as well as two armies of Brettons.

	  

	  

	  

	I spent my event fighting the noble knights of Brettonia, and I believe that my dwarves were helped by the atypical mobility obtained from the monsters (Wyverna, Lammasu and Bale Taurus) accompanied by the antithesis of HŽ (Iron Daemon) and a spell that increased the infantry's mobility.

	  

	The Kings of War tables were much more dynamic, with more players, more games, and the waxes themselves were far more diverse. I'm glad that the tables were close so I had the opportunity to hang out with the hosts Luka and Vane.. It was definitely a surprise when our Mario visited us and hung out with us.

	  

	I managed to find enough time to walk around the rest of the event - and it was impressive to see so many players in one place. Amuletd20 really did a phenomenal job for their first event.

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	After the event, we went to the association's premises to socialize a little more. And, if you're curious about what it was like there, come to the next Amulet event yourself, you certainly won't regret it.

	  

	P.S. Many thanks to Luka, Vana and Mita for the invitation and hospitality!

	Početkom listopada imao sam priliku posjetiti susjede iz udruge Amuletd20. Ovog puta nije bio artsy Turnip28 event, nego ogroman turnir u AOS i Conquest igrama.

	  

	Osim main eventa, bilo je stolova na kojima se igralo i Kings of War, kao i Warhammer: The Old World gdje sam došao sa svojim Chaos Dwarfovima.

	  

	Nažalost, mislim da je TOW bio najslabije zastupljen s četiri igrača, ali je ovaj mali community bio divan! Igrači su si međusobno pomagali s pravilima i partije su bile jako Friendly, Uz moje chorfove, na eventu je bila i jedna vojska High Elfova, kao i dvije vojske Brettonaca.

	  

	  

	  

	Svoj event proveo sam boreći se plemenitim vitezovima Brettonie, a vjerujem da je mojim patuljcima pomogla netipična mobilnost dobivena čudovištima (Wyverna, Lammasu i Bale Taurus) u pratnji antiteze HŽ-a (Iron Daemon) i čarolije koja je pješadiji povećavala mobilnost.

	  

	Na Kings of War stolovima bilo je znatno dinamičnije, više igrača, više partija, a i same vosjke su bile daleko raznolikije. Drago mi je da su stolovi bili blizu pa sam imao priliku družiti se s domaćinima Lukom i Vaneom.. Definitivno iznenađenje je bilo kad nas je naš Mario posjetio i podružio se s nama.

	  

	Uspio sam uhvatiti dovoljno vremena da prošećem i ostatkom eventa - i bilo je impresivno vidjeti toliko igrača na istom mjestu. Amuletd20 je zaista odradio fenomenalan posao za prvi event koji organiziraju.

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	  

	Nakon eventa, otišli smo do prostora udruge podružiti se još malo. A, ako vas zanima kako je tamo bilo, dođite i sami na idući Amuletov event, sigurno nećete požaliti.

	  

	P.S. Veliko hvala Luki, Vani i Miti na pozivu i gostoprimstvu!

	During October and November, we held our Back to Basics miniature painting workshops for the youngest at the Zagreb City Libraries.

	

	

	The first set of three workshops was held in the Youth Department of the Medveščak Library on October 2, 9 and 11, 2025.

	

	

	During the workshops, our youngest participants painted chibi figures from the UMS Agram line and made a castle from upcycled materials.

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	More photos can be found on our social media.

Gaslands - Tutorial II

  array(10) {
    ["id"]=>

	In this article I will briefly describe how I painted another set of three cars for Gaslands. Same as last time, I started with a black undercoat.

	

	As I decided to keep the colour of the vehicles matt black, I left it at that and proceeded to paint the windshields. Using much the same method I used for the yellow crew, I applied the chosen paint scheme. Unlike blue windshields with the yellow crew, here I decided to use the yellow/red combo.

	

	I then added chrome.

	

	In the end, I added metallic details such as guns etc.

	

	It was time to add the decals. I first painted all the surfaces with gloss varnish. Then I added the decals and after they set properly, I covered everything with Ultra Matt Varnish..

	

	And thus ended the painting process.

	U ovom ću  članku opisati kako sam obojao drugi set od tri autića za Gaslands demo partije. Kao i prošli puta, krenuo sam s crnim undercoatom. 

	

	S obzirom da sam odlučio da ovaj crew bude mat crn, farbanje karoserija sam tu prekinuo i počeo sam sa staklima. Slično kao i prošli put, koristio sam sličnu shemu, ali u drugim bojama. Za razliku od plavih refleksija na žutim autima, na crnima sam se odlučio za žuto/crvenu kombinaciju. 

	

	Dodao sam krom.

	

	I na kraju dodao metalne dijelove poput oružja.

	

	Na ovim autima, odlučio sam dodati i naljepnice. Prvo sam na površine s naljepnicama stavio gloss lak. Potom sam postavio naljepnicce i nakon što su se dobro osušile sam te iste površine prekrio mat lakom. 

	

	Time sam završio posao...
