Agram 2024 – A Year In Review

Marko Paunović, 23th December 2024

The end of this year 2024 has come, in which after the chaotic 2023, things have returned to normal again, and in which, in addition to traditional programs, we introduced two new programs and published two new books! The first program builds on the 2023 partnership with Back to Basics and consists of miniature coloring workshops for the youngest that we conducted in the City of Zagreb Libraries, while the second program is the Agram Lego Section. Read about all of this, as well as the two new books, below.

Another novelty is that since 2024, UMS Agram has its own Instagram profile . During 2024, we published around 150 posts and gathered almost 200 followers!

But let's go back to the beginning of the year, which, like every year, began with our traditional Exhibition...

E X H I B I T I O N   O F   M I N I A T U R E S   A N D   T A B L E T O P   S C E N E R Y

We started the year with preparations for our annual Miniatures and Models Exhibition, during which we also organized a weekend miniature painting workshop and, for the fifth time this term, our international miniature painting competition, the Black Queen Hobby and Miniature Painting Competition. As always, the Exhibition presented a cross-section of the work of the Association, its members, participants of its courses and workshops, and members of the Miniature Painters Croatia FB group. In a large number of showcases, there were numerous miniatures for tabletop strategy games, board games, and an entire showcase was dedicated to award-winning exhibits from previous miniature competitions. Several showcases were dedicated to projects that the Association has been implementing for 21 years, such as the UMS "Agram" Library and Reading Room, the Spatial Model Making Workshop, and the Miniature Painting Workshop. The works of our member Ana Polanšćak had a special place in the showcases.

OPEN MINIATURE PAINTING WORKSHOPS

Over the next two weeks, our volunteers held open miniature painting workshops on weekdays from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Miniature painting workstations were set up where our visitors could paint miniatures we had prepared (or their own if they had brought them) using our materials and tools.

During the second weekend of the Exhibition, March 4-5, we organized a MINITURE PAINTING WORKSHOP – Frostgrave.

Click for enlarged picture

The workshop was held over two days (the whole weekend) and participants painted five different figures for the Frostgrave game, which can also be used for DND sessions. The focus of these lectures is coloring several miniatures at once, but the knowledge from the workshop is equally applicable to coloring armies for boardgames and a collection of figures for pen&paper rpgs. Each participant received 1 wizard (male/female), 3 warriors (2 male and 1 female or 2 female and 1 male) and 1 male barbarian. The workshop presented paints and accessories, preparation of figures, several techniques for coloring miniatures from basic to more advanced, and techniques and tricks for quickly and efficiently coloring large quantities of figures at once. As part of the workshop, water-based acrylic paints were used. The lectures are adapted so that the leaders devote equal time to all participants and can be adapted to all categories of miniaturists (from beginners to slightly advanced).

During the weekend, May 4th-5th, we organized a MINITURE PAINTING WORKSHOP – Bretonnia.

The workshop was held over two days and the participants painted a Bretonnian knight on horseback for the tabletop strategy game Warhammer The Old World. The focus of these lectures was painting multiple miniatures at once, but the knowledge from the workshop is equally applicable to painting armies for board games and collections of figures for pen&paper RPGs. Each participant assembled their own knight with a spear, shield and ornamental helmet as well as a horse according to their own wishes. The workshop presented paints and accessories, figure preparation, several techniques for painting miniatures from basic to advanced, as well as techniques for applying stickers, and finally basing the figure. Water-based acrylic paints were used as part of the workshop..

Click for enlarged picture

The workshop included the following thematic units: 1. Planning and preparation and assembly of miniatures 2. Processing miniatures before painting 3. Basic colors 4. Shading and highlighting techniques 5. Placing matte stickers 6. Freehand basics

During the weekend, 21-22.9.2024, we held a new weekend miniature painting workshop called Dragon Busts. Guided by this, the organizers selected suitable dragon busts by the famous miniaturist Karol Rudyk, which all participants painted. Each participant received a unique bust from his set of busts limited to 100 copies. As part of the workshop, acrylic paints were primarily used, but oil effects could also be used.

Click for enlarged picture

The participants learned how to properly prepare a resin figure/bust before painting and then made an inner base for the frame from balsa, into which they placed their dragons at the very end of the workshop. This time, each participant was able to explore various effects through their painting at their own discretion. The choice of “color scheme” or whether they want to use OSL effects or anything else is left to the participant.

As part of this UMS "Agram" project called Agram Group Build which was created after Kruno and Marko talked about joint projects on Wednesdays and how cool it would be to bring more people together on Wednesdays to work on something together. From that came the idea of Group Builds. In 2024 we worked on a series of busts of Musketeers .

Wednesday's Hobby Corner is conceived as a collection of free activities in the space used by UMS "Agram" during Wednesday evening sessions. Most activities are open to everyone, with some benefits for UMS "Agram" members, such as storing miniatures in display cases between sessions or borrowing books from our extensive Library.

During November and December, we organized a program called Advent in Agram, which consisted of interactive workshops on making Christmas balls and shorter demonstration workshops during December. Interactive workshops involve participants making their own models according to instructions and under the supervision of a leader. No registration is required for the demonstration workshops in December, and they consist of a series of separate topics that cover model-making methods, effects, and materials related to the winter period, such as making snow, ice, and the like, which the lecturer demonstrates from behind the desk. As part of Advent, we organized:

The Zagreb Cup, a model-making competition organized by ZMMS, was held this year over two days on May 18-19, 2024, at Family Mall. The organizer asked us to participate by presenting our programs and projects, which we were happy to do.

Svet v Malem, Pivka, Slovenija

Click for enlarged picture

Svet v Malem, a model-making competition, was held at the Museum of Military History in Pivka, Slovenia, on May 25, 2024. We also presented our programs and activities at this competition. For the first time, our Norwegian member, Sebastian, came with us, for whom this was also the first competition abroad in which he participated. In addition to the competition, as is tradition, our Slovenian partner Back to Basics and Miniatures.si organized demonstration workshops on painting miniatures. Our Marko was also invited to hold one – on quick painting of the Bretonnian Man-at-Arms.

“First of all, the venue is perfect for a miniature convention. The Military History Park in Pivka has an interesting story, and learning about its historical and geographical importance, as well as Yugoslav military history in their museum, was certainly interesting, although for me the best part of the place were the large planes, helicopters, tanks and cars hanging or standing around the venue. This provides a perfect complement and contrast to all the tiny miniatures on display. The exhibition mostly consisted of military and historical vehicles, dioramas or displays, but the three of us entered in the slightly smaller categories of "Wargaming", "What If (Sci-fi)", "Movie Scenes", "Bust" and "Figures of All Scales". Even here, there were some pretty good entries. But most impressive of all were some of the dioramas depicting historical military events (also complementing the museum exhibits and several historical artifacts housed there), such as Winter Relax, Alsace 1944, a "Best of Show" from Moson. This large rotating diorama, complete with well-lit interiors and a completely realistic winter scene of vehicles, soldiers and equipment, was so impressive to me that we also awarded it the BEST OF SHOW by UMS AGRAM award and presented it to the author, Giampiero Bianchi.”

On June 8th, we organized an interactive miniature painting workshop as part of International Tabletop Day 2024 in Jalžabet near Varaždin.

Our Mario, with the help of local Viking Sebastian, led a miniature painting workshop that was supposed to last two hours, from 10 am to 12 pm. However, due to great interest, the duration was extended to almost 5 pm.

In parallel with the workshop in Jalžabet, our second delegation headed to Budapest to represent UMS Agram at the international model-making competition PSMK 2024. Our team, Kruno and Marko, headed there on Friday and stayed until Sunday, even though the competition itself was a one-day event.

Upon arrival in Budapest, we joined the miniaturist team for a welcome dinner with Hungarian specialties. Throughout the weekend, it was a pleasure to exchange experiences and knowledge with world-class figures such as Margot Crombeecke, Chloe Plattner, James Zhou and Miklos Bute.

On Saturday morning, we arrived at the competition and set up our stand (which later won a “We Like It” souvenir from the organizers). We then placed the exhibits in the corresponding categories and the competition could begin.

Throughout the weekend, there were large tables where we could all model and paint miniatures, as well as piles of figures, parts, paints, tools, brushes and kitbashing supplies.

There was at least one workshop every day of the Kitbashing Camp. On the first day, Helge (@wilhelminiatures) led a workshop on polymer clay modeling, and Terran (@conjuredcraft) on face modeling for beginners. On Saturday, there was a workshop on experimental painting led by our own Ana, and Arjan (@atelier.ag) on silicone mold making and resin casting of miniatures.

Big Panda and Tiny Dragon, Character Drawing Workshop

Click for enlarged picture

During this year's Interliber, James Norbury, author of the books about the Big Panda and the Tiny Dragon, held several different events and meetings with readers. On Friday, November 15th, I had the opportunity to participate in a workshop on drawing characters from his books. Since James is an illustrator and his works include abstract landscapes, fantasy art, SF and cyberpunk comics, drawings and graphics, it was interesting for me to see how the panda and dragon characters are created using the technique of Japanese Zen painters.

ARTICLES IN MINIATURISM AND MODEL ART

Click for enlarged picture

And finally, our most comprehensive program should be mentioned. The online publication of articles from miniatures and model making that began in 2020 continued in the following years, including in 2024, with over 50 published articles this year. Hereby we would like to thank all members for their effort and commitment in making miniatures and models, but especially for taking the time to photograph work in progress and writing articles for our site.

    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.

    Click for enlarged picture

    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.

    Click for enlarged picture

    I then added chrome.

    Click for enlarged picture

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

    Click for enlarged picture

    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..

    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.

    Then I used the Rust effect from Dirty Down. Once the effect was dry, I sprayed the cars with a clear matte varnish to protect the layer of rust (which is activated when exposed to moisture). After the spray dried, I applied the Scratches and Heavy Chipping effect from Ammo by Mig Jimenez with a brush. After about fifteen minutes of drying, I sprayed the cars in yellow and let it dry for about 15 minutes. I used a brush to apply water over the cars and used a stiff brush, wooden skewer and cotton swab to remove the excess paint that was activated due to the Scratches and Heavy Chipping effects.

    Then came the painting. First I covered all the details that would not be yellow in black. Then I used blue to draw out the reflections on the glass. Added the metal details (engines and weapons). And finally added the chrome effects (using GSW paint). For the very end I left the engine shine effects.

    The painting of the cars for Gaslands is now complete.

    U ovom članku ću ukratko opisati kako sam bojao set od tri autića za Gaslands. Krenuo sam sa crnim undercoatom na kojeg sam stavio srebrni (Leadbelcher) sprej kao osnovnu boju.

    Potom sam koristio Rust efekt od tvrtke Dirty Down. Kada se posušio efekt, autiće sam posprejao bezbojnim mat lakom da zaštitim sloj hrđe (koja se aktivira u doticaju sa vlagom). Nakon što se sprej osušio, kistom sam nanio Scratches i Heavy Chipping efekt od Ammo by Mig Jimenez. Nakon petnaestak minuta sušenja, autiće sam posprejao u žuto i ostavio da se osuši cca 15 minuta. Kistom sam premazao vodu preko autića i tvrdim kistom, drvenim ražnjićem i štapićem za uši sam uklonio višak boje koji se aktivirao zbog Scratches i Heavy Chipping efekata.

    Zatim je uslijedilo bojanje. Prvo sve detalje koji neće biti žuti sam prekrio u crnu boju. Zatim sam izvukao plavom bojom refleksije na staklima. Dodao metalne detalje (motori i oružja). I na kraju dodao krom efekte (koristeći boju tvrtke GSW). Za sami kraj ostavio sam efekte sjaja motora.

    TIme je završeno bojanje autića za Gaslands.
