My MESBG table has been great, but I've always felt that it could use something to fill a gap(other than some ground cover, which is something I'll need to sort out at some point too). Someone on the Australian MESBG […]

After many years I am returning to The Lord Of The Rings and the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game. We're starting with The Fellowship but, much like a road, there's no telling where we'll get swept off to.

With all the excitement over Vampires from GW this year I decided to start a Vampire Count's army in preparation for the return of the old world.

I started designing 'Raiders of Éireann' almost two years ago, when I'd recently become a father. I had come to feel that I would never have any time anymore to play any wargames, so I set myself the task to […]

A new KoW army for 3rd edition, started in August 2021 and with a provisional deadline of 22nd October 2021

With Broadside 2021 scheduled for the beginning of December it is time to get on with preparing our club demo game for the event. We've put on a game for (I think) every Broadside game show and so this year […]

Starting to build and paint a Oathmark army

So thanks to a rather tall n hairy fella showing his own Moonstone minis off on a recent weekender, Moonstone the game was put on my radar. Never really heard of it before and wasnt really looking for a new […]

I have a copy of Warhammer Quest Cursed city and there is a card marker for a suffocating grave tide in the box. I decided to get creative and make my own by raiding the bits box and seeing what […]

Painting up my minis and terrain for upcoming Frostgrave games

This blog details my attempts to reduce my own ‘pile of shame’ which is totalling 100s of miniatures that need constructing, basing and painting. The blog will focus on 25mm and 28mm fantasy minis from Reaper, Dark Sword, Diehard, Dunkeldorf, […]

Games Workshop were amazingly generous to send me a copy of the new Age of Sigmar boxset, Dominion. So, I guess I should probably do something with it 😉 This project will track my progress painting up the box and […]

After watching the play throughs of this, I backed the arising kickstarter but couldnt wait an grabbed a few miniatures off their store.

I wanted to improve my NMM so I painted the Aries Knight from Kingdom Death.

I had been sitting on the original starter set of GW’s Warcry with a second set of terrain for sometime before I received the catacombs set for Christmas. I knew how I wanted to tackle the massive amount of terrain […]

Gaming, Saturday, can't talk now, need to paint!

Words and stuff to go here, when I can be bothered

With pandemic lethargy setting in (I'm still not comfortable attending gaming clubs) I was looking for a different style of project. A also wanted to use my resin printer more. Marrying the two I decided to print off all the […]

So I am really enjoying painting up smaller projects at the moment and it turns out I have a bunch of Warhammer Underworlds warbands. This is them as I complete them. I do have some old ones completed so I […]

My attempts to get back into war gaming after a good 4 year break (a bit late on the path)

Uncle Adam (of early Beasts of War fame) has co-produced a game and I jumped in with both feet. I will make two Cabals. One from mostly models I have previously painted (That might get a bit of a spring […]

Moonstone was tempted to me by Gerry, and the whimsical tone and wacky characters had me sold. I was so tied with what faction to pick. The fairies look incredible... they all do. But thanks to Mr Tumnus, I do […]

Project blog following the creation of a small diorama using miniatures from the Arcworlde game by Warploque Miniatures. No specific contest or aim in mind beyond challenging myself to develop my model making skills, particularly around creating realistic terrain elements […]

A very rough account of our heroes and their adventures in their bold attempts to fight against the forces of darkness. There will be pictures of the action, and a word or two on their deeds for good or for […]

Had this game for a while but since playing in a tournament it has found a new lease of life, so thought I should get the heroes painted up.

Sometimes you just don't want to paint what you need to paint! I've loads of stuff to paint up for games and systems that will be hitting the table soon but I just didn't fancy painting any of it. A […]

Blowing the dust off an oldie and adding some new shine to it

A little bit late to the Spring clean challenge this year. I started going through some of the plastic backlog and meant to put up a project, then ended up moving house in the middle... Battle for Skull Pass goblins, […]

I got this through the door a few weeks ago and I figured I should paint it. The first few posts are what I've done over the past couple of weeks before starting this project log. Thus far this set […]

I managed to get hold of a copy of Warhammer Quest: Cursed City. It seems to have given me my mojo back when it comes to painting and I wanted to document the painting of the different figures in the […]

After collecting Frostgrave miniatures for years and printing myriads of building for the Frozen City, I decided to bring these items to life and build and populate Felstad.

Late to the spring clean challenge and following this week's indie of the week (23/4/21) I've decided to attempt to paint my 105th rifles for Flintloque

For my 9th birthday my mum and dad got me the Stormcast eternals paint set this is journey of building and painting them.

Here I will be posting photos of all the vintage figures I will be painting this year.

I have recently discovered Alternative Armies and the HOTT (Hordes of the Things) army packs they produce. I plan on collecting and painting a horde of these 15mm Fantasy miniatures so I can use them in games of HOTT which […]

Now that I have nearly finished my first band of adventurers they now need somewhere to adventure in. I've dug out a load of old terrain I had accumulated and now need to turn it into the Frozen City.

I will be slowly working my way through painting the League of Infamy Kickstarter. As well as using the League of Infamy miniatures to play League of Infamy I intend to rebase the minis to Vanguard and Kings of War […]

I'm aiming to paint up everything I have for Frostgrave. Once we can start meeting people indoors again, a few friends and I are going to dip back into the gaming side of the hobby with second edition so it […]

I've had a weird enjoyment from halflings for years, similar to how certain people like dwarves... One thing I had wanted was some Roman-style halflings, big shields and all. I couldn't find any, so I set about making my own […]

Painting new plastic crack from the GW dealers

Printed & Painted the bloodbowl board from Kraken Studios. Resized the board and printed it flat. Was completed around the same times as the path of conquest 2020

Many years ago in 2003 "me thinks", GW released battle of the five armies independent miniature game. To this day this has been one of my favourite ever GW games but mostly one of my favourite ever plastic box sets […]
