Speed Painting Adeptus Mechanicus

I suppose for some folks out there ‘cheap’ might not necessarily be about money, but has more to do with time spent. On the odd occasion that I build and paint something from Games Workshop, I normally go for the ‘cheap’ speedy option. My Thousand Sons tutorial is one of the most popular pages on […]

Chaos Cultists

Chaos Cultists are a problem, and they have been for a very long time. This is a bizarre problem for the biggest wargaming company GW to have. Cultists are a basic infantry option for arguably the second most important faction in Warhammer 40,000. That’s like Warlord Games announcing Bolt Action and then saying they’re not […]

Pounds Per Point – Racing to 20k

I’m not only attempting to paint all of my Chaos Space Marines I’m also plotting to build more. Obviously with GW’s price rises I’m being money conscious, the whole point in this blog is that wargaming is affordable for everyone after all! So based on One Page Rules points system I’ve taken the cheapest option […]

Discount Titans

My friend and I are working our way towards a very big game of Grimdark Future, hopefully 20,000 points, which should pit his entire Blood Angels army against my entire World Eater army (plus some allies). This year so far I’ve already managed to add 1000 points to my force with a box of Horus […]

Grimdark Future

I haven’t been posting as much as I would like lately, although that’s not for a bad reason, it’s for a very good one (albeit a gaming one). A major distraction from my usual repertoire of Deathzap, Bolt Action and whatever other strangeness I can play with has been Grimdark Future from One Page Rules. […]

Easy Terrain: Craters

Good for Bolt Action, 40k, especially good for Lunar if you skip a step, and of course good for Deathzap! Start out with a foil pie plate: Then mash it into your basic shape: I then coated the entire thing in texture paint. Mine is home made and hard wearing. It’s a mix of filler, […]

#NewYearNewArmy

Games Workshop have been pushing #newyearnewarmy on Instagram, and I’ve been complying with my latest effort in 40k. Of course though, because it’s me and because I hate building kits where I have to follow instructions my effort this year is going to be a Slann army. Slann are the lizardmen or Seraphon (if you […]

Baba Nurgle

I wanted a new Daemon Prince for my Death Guard army after seeing how effective they can be in my last game of 40k (long time ago now). Despite having a drawer full of official Daemon Prince models I set out to essential scratch build one with my bits box and a small baby doll. […]

Froggy The Chaos Predator

I began as just a man, a man with a dream, a dream to combine a plastic frog skeleton from the Halloween section of a Super Market with an old and dusty Chaos Rhino to make a Chaos Predator. I went through several iterations of combining the frog with the tank and landed on what […]

Death Guard Update

So I’ve been yearning to post on an unwieldy number of projects lately, I’m suffering from a little creativity overload which happens from time to time (at least for me it does). It’s when you keep starting and getting excited about so many new projects you never make too much progress in any single area. […]

Painting a Fiend of Slaanesh

So I’ve been experimenting lately with acrylic inks, mine are from Daler Rowney. I’m aware people definitely don’t use them in the way I have, however I’ve found a little method that works for me. I’m a big fan of Games Workshop’s Contrast paints and as someone who prefers to paint quickly how could I […]

Chaos Daemons for 9th

Is there some irony in a person hoping to become a Church of England Priest collecting Daemons? Chaos Daemons have always been a favourite army of mine. It’s probably down to how bizarre many of the models are, how the range stays close to its roots and even newer models are very close in appearance […]
