I got quite into VOID 1.1 when it came out, and had quite a few models (VASA and Syntha mostly, with some others mixed in).
Then, unfortunately the company went out of business, and later got picked up by Urban […]

So, I finished 2012 off by getting a unit of Black Orcs finished off for use in Mantic’s Kings of War.

Then in the new year I dusted off a box of Dwarves for GW’s Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game. These […]

I got the new Osprey ruleset Dux Bellorum by Dan Mersey at Christmas, and having had a quick read through decided to work on a Roster Builder in Open Office.

Actually, it was originally just going to be a sheet […]

Mechaforce by Robertson Games is (surprisingly) a game of Mech combat, similar to Battletech but with less paperwork to keep track of.

It is designed for about 4 mecha per team , but the force […]

I like Mighty Armies Fantasy, it’s a good game and the new version from RebelMinis has added to the original (Mongoose) version.

The new version has a unit builder, which is dead simple, but I was bored one […]

I got a box of Defiance Games UAMC marines. They were originally known as USMC, but apparently the US Army has trademarked/copyrighted that, so they had to change it to “United Americas Marine Corps” […]

Some progress has been made on Shia Khan started yesterday. Base colours are going on and hope to get them all in place today.

After this, it’s back […]

While I’m still on a roll from Salute, have undercoated the Shia Khan models ready to get to work on them.

Took an hour or so to tidy up bits of flash, then glude onto bases. One thing I’m not keen on with […]

Salute was on yesterday. Another chance to meet some friends and pick up some goodies.

Now, I know I’ve not updated this blog for about a year, but this is the start of several new projects, so will try and […]

This is hopefully going to be the year of the blog! Will start with a review of 2011 (got a lot done, but no blogging), and then look at 2012…

Have used Army Painter Quickshade, and impressed with the results, but can be a bit messy and seems hard on brushes when trying that approach.Over on TMP (theminiaturespage.com), it always starts a debate over […]

and Vasa Colonial marines

OK, has been a LONG time since last update! Work and family ate up painting/hobby time until recently. Few days off this week, and managed to get some painting done today.Looking at the pile of part painted models […]
