#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. […]

Bits Box Pox Walkers and a Bit on Having Shaky Hands

I guess this counts as another post on the importance of never throwing anything away. I’ve recently been playing Warhammer 40,000 which to be honest is a bit of a childhood dream come true. I’ve got pretty shaky hands, which doesn’t just affect my ability to paint figures sometimes it also makes it almost impossible […]

Speed Painting Khorne Berserkers

I’ve been thinking a lot about Khorne Berserkers lately and remembered I’d already got 24 fully assembled lads, with textured bases and primed black in a box somewhere. So I pulled the box out and had a look at them: I had an idea as to how I was going to go about painting them […]

Warhammer 40,000 Third Edition Battle Report: Eldar vs Imperial Guard

A dead game or older edition of a tabletop game never truly dies, so long as you have the figures and the rules you can relive and replay whatever you want! Hence today’s post – Imperial Guard (definitely not Astra Militarum) vs Eldar (definitely not Aeldari). Using the 3rd edition rule book which has mini […]

Another Lesson in Never Throwing Anything Away – Tyranids

A Previous Post on this topic. I’ve been enjoying painting my Daemons army up for 9th edition 40k. However it has been mentally taxing as I stare down the next unit and consider how much time it will take to get them painted. So I needed a little break, I needed to get instant results! […]

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 […]

Craftworld Ashon Sen

Disney World was a lot of fun and thankfully we made it home just before all the travel issues Coronavirus has presented. With a few days in the house before returning to work I felt like embarking on a bit of a challenge, that being to assemble and paint a Warhammer Start Collecting box in […]

Killteam

One of the multitude of projects I’m currently dividing my hobby time between is Killteam. Not on the cheap side at least for the initial outlay since I picked up the starter set, but it is good value for money (at least for a Games Workshop product). The set comes with two Killteams: 5 Space […]

Necrons

I’ve been bitten by the 40k bug again, I’m sure it bites most of us tabletop gamers from time to time. So here’s a selection of images from this weeks labours: More Biblical and cheap stuff coming soon!
