I need a new game like I need a hole in my head. However, Over the past few years I have found that I really enjoy painting Atomic Mass Games' Shatterpoint models, and it's also my current favorite miniatures game […]

Mid-1980's country bumpkin wandering streets of Edinburgh, trying to get to a university lecture, finds himself staring into a shop window filled with D&D figures. Intrigued he steps inside and before you know it he's leaving the shop with a […]

For 2026 I wanted to focus on painting with purpose and actually playing games, so I've moved away from a catch-all painting log in favor of doing a separate project for each game so I can combine painting and prep […]

Na na na na na na na na na na. Painting tiny objects.

Unable to find a skirmish game that ticked my boxes, I decided to write one myself!

I had the great pleasure in attending Salute 2026 and have filmed a few interviews with stand-out...stands on the day.

I have a lot of painted miniatures from a productive couple of years that I have not shared. So here we go.

In the words of 10CC : I don't like cricket. Unlike them, I don't love it either. But I do love a mini with a cricket bat. I've bought a few over the years, I even bought a VBCW set […]

Spring Clean time again, which means a good excuse to paint up a few figures that don't belong to any particular project I'm working on.

After painting a halfling bust last year I seem to have gotten hooked and found myself looking for my next fix. I have discovered a couple that make me want to paint them and decided I could probably get a […]

Ever find yourself staring at a half-painted miniature, a complex rulebook, or a campaign map, only to feel your brain start to fog over? You’re deep into your hobby project, but focus is fading and frustration is building. We’ve all […]

Documenting my random hobby progress over 2026

This will be a general overview of my projects throughout the year of 2026.

For years... since X-Wing first came out... I have been meaning to build a battle board using a vinyl mat. So it's about time I got around to it. The plan is to make it multi-purpose as it's a 3x3 […]

I realised that I often don't post the things that I paint online. That might be because I'm not happy with the painting, or I can't think of anything to say about them, or (most likely) I forget to snap […]

Just somewhere to dump photos of my hobby progress for 2026

This is where I'll keep track of my painting projects for this year. I tend to paint a variety of models.

Come listen to two aging nerds chatting over films that have some link to the tabletop hobby

I have a chance to go to Warhammer World under the weak guise of work but I want to make a bigger deal out of it. What will I play? What do I need to paint? Will I be able […]

My second project of the year will be focused on everything Tabletop related. It's gonna be a place for me to use as a catch-all to upload all of my hobby projects! As I always have a million projects in […]

Another year, another project to pretend I'll be organised or remotely focused.

This will be images of completed projects and miniatures painted throughout 2026.

I will discuss here why i think women don't seem to be interested in miniature wargames.

Just happened to jump on some terrain ideas and realised it is Terrainfest season. Will probably be jumping from project to project and genre to genre on this.

I have used cheap plastic boxes for years. As most of us have done. Now I caved and bought 5 RUBs. This is their story.

I will discuss here when and how our hobby will be affected by generative A.I.

This is something I have wanted to do for quite a long time and I have spent the last few months preparing for the launch of Terrainfest 2025. Over the years I have invested quite a lot in scenery, but […]

I have a stack of unbuilt terrain for a multitude of different genres and scales that require building and painting. I also need to scratch build some hedgerows, fences, ploughed fields and rivers.

I have a few bits planned for this year’s terrainfest. The main thing is a 3D printed cargo ship that a friend gave me. It’s a hefty beast, and will be used as terrain for my future sci-fi skirmish project […]

Tackling a big army paint can be a grind for some people,yes I banged out a starter army last week. But I don't want to do that level of intensity every week. So I decided to take a different approach....

Hello and welcome to my project with Highlights and images from Warlord Games Open Day 2025.

I have decided to help keep my motivation, to do a weekly update of what I have been doing. This will hopefully stave off the fatigue of the never ending pile of potential, and also reassure me that I am […]

In May of 2025 I needed to find a new place to live after being in a one bedroom apartment for the last twenty years, ten of which I was a caregiver for an elderly friend next door. I also […]

It's that time of year again, ORKTOBER! Whatever is on the workbench get put on hold for the month while I add something to my ever growing hoard. This year, the project is smaller than usual, a five piece group […]

I decided as a white man it was my duty to create a podcast because it's very important that people hear what I have to say. Or. I just felt like it and thought it would be abit of craic.

Much like previous years, for this year’s Spring Clean challenge, rather than a single project, I will be working on various pieces that have either been languishing on my painting desk, waiting for a much needed refresh, or just grabbing […]

A log of all the stuff I get done this year

My buddy @144Artist is super active. I dip in now and again. I’ve got a spring cleaning project of clearing all those misc stalled painting projects that have been taking up space on my workbench.

First time getting into a miniatures game that requires terrain, painted models and a decent sized table. Using this project as a way to keep myself motivated to complete it and to gain any advice or knowledge from onlookers. Hopefully […]

After 30+ years in the Hobby and having moved house last summer, two things have happened: 1) from feb '24 - feb'25 I painted a grand total of 14 models (all for Salute '24), all 10mmm scale. I usually aim […]

I thought I would just do a general project of my 2025 hobby activity this year. So I will try to load up what i have done each month.It will be a miss-mass of projects through out this year.
