Episode 72 - Art Attack

Iain has gotten Ben Porter from the Unlucky Frog round for some painting and decorating, but has rather misunderstood what sort of thing Ben paints. He joins the team to discuss the latest news including Wizards of the Coast looking at NFTs, Christian T Petersen buying up Fantasy Flight property, Games Workshop Supply issues, pokemon cards and much more. In our interview with Ben we look at the world of commission miniature painting and what brought Ben to setup his own business.    Headlines RIP Robin Wood https://icv2.com/articles/news/view/48169/r-i-p-robin-wood   Wotc makes up 75% of Hasbro https://icv2.com/articles/news/view/48207/wotc-segment-75-hasbro-profits-q1 https://www.dicebreaker.com/companies/hasbro/news/magic-the-gathering-nft-earnings-call   Christian T Petersen Company buys Fantasy Flight Games Centre https://icv2.com/articles/news/view/48174/christian-petersen-company-buys-fantasy-flight-games-center   News Games Workshop hit by supply issues https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/04/18/our-pre-order-schedules-changing-a-bit-heres-how/   Monster Hunter World Board game cuts in retailers https://icv2.com/articles/news/view/48165/steamforged-games-reveals-retail-referral-program   Pokemon Finance news is back https://www.dicebreaker.com/games/pokemon-trading-card-game/news/incredibly-rare-autographed-pokemon-card-sold-tsunekazu-ishihara   Vampire RPG gets TV series https://deadline.com/2021/04/world-of-darkness-film-and-tv-in-development-eric-heisserer-christine-boylan-hivemind-1234744965/   Interview   Ben’s Links https://ashenholdart.co.uk/ https://www.instagram.com/ashenholdart/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/AshenholdArt   Jamie who did Ben’s new logo https://thenobleartist.com/ Patreon Shoutouts Shaun Newan game-a-lot.fun/en facebook.com/gamealotboardgames Our Patreon https://www.patreon.com/thegiantbrain   Support Us https://giantbrain.co.uk/support-us-new/   Metallic Dice Games https://metallicdicegames.com/ Promo Code: ROLLWITHBRAINS Outro   DBZ Cluedo https://theop.games/2021/04/clue-dragon-ball-z-available-now/?utm_source=Master+media+List&utm_campaign=8bfc92f2e2-Dragon+Ball+Z+Clue+Available+Now+%28Press%29&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_c1d1e7b85b-8bfc92f2e2-356660665&mc_cid=8bfc92f2e2&mc_eid=093cc94f5b   Unlucky Frog    https://www.unluckyfrog.com/   Our Links   Thanks very much for listening.
