Fantastic result on the camouflage, trying hard to workout the colour combinations. Those gnomes put a big smile on my face. Until, the image of them going up against a dwarf deathroller popped into my head. Do […]

Anyone following the GW 40k ‘campaign’ for 11th edition ?
Not sure if anyone in charge understood what the heck they were doing when they released blue smurfs as a ‘prize’ for the tin boyz winning the first two rounds when the armageddon box itself was covered in…[Read more] -
