March 2020: This turbulent year has been a busy one for me. Most days I've had less time and less motivation to hobby. I've done almost no hobby work this last twelve months. Almost none, but not entirely none. This […]

While I’ve had a bit of time on my hands, I finally managed to get around to photographing this army (for the purpose of selling it)! I took so many pictures and enjoyed the nostalgia of seeing it again after […]

Just getting started.

I'm getting into kings of war - and do do so I'm pulling on a random grab bag of minis - starting with my WHFB 3rd edition goblins!

For some time I’ve wanted to get started on a Last Alliance Army. Have always loved that opening scene of them marching on Mount Doom. Figured it was high time to dig out all that I had collected and get […]

It's August 2020 and the end is in sight. Out of the 2200ish models I own I only currently have 63 left to paint, so why not share the final push with everyone and watch me accidentally buy and print […]

Inspired by the Warhammer 40K Dark Heresy Role Play tome ‘The Radical’s Handbook’, I’ve decided to finish off a project I started ten years ago but failed to complete with any real focus. My Spring Clean 2020 project ‘13th Armoured […]

Hi, I backed the Maiden Pledge of the Joan of Arc Kickstarter. Playing and painting this set has been on hold since arrival. JoA still hasn’t finalized its rules. I have been wanting to introduce RanknFlank to my son who […]

This is possibly the cheekiest Spring Clean entry but bear with.....

After me yapping about wanting to do an ACW army a few of us decided to paint up a few regiments for a game of Black Powder, the idea being to come together with a brigade each for a battle. […]

I am painting up a set of wargames atlantic raumjager to use as steel legion in Warhammer 40k, this project has been on hold for a while but I'm starting up again for the spring cleaning hobby challenge, in the […]

So during Lockdown I was 'encouraged' to paint up the miniatures I already have. Looking through my draws of shame I remembered backing the Mercs: Recon back in 2016 (http://kck.st/20M9Vsd). I looked through it and whoa that's a lot of […]

Me and my girlfriend are building and painting the battle of berlin bolt action set and extra terrain and minatures. It is her first piece of painting and building and soon gaming she has done.

Basically, this is me using my furloughed time to paint minis, build and paint scenery some from scratch some from kits, and generally catch up on all the stuff I hadn't had time for before. The Shrine was built from […]

My "Rangers of Shadow Deep - solo campaign" project is growing too large. For this spin off project I will be looking at a different warband to take into harms way. I read the fluff and found that there are […]

Come one, come all! See the most vaguely inconsistent extravaganza that no one really thinks about but if they did they'd be mildly misanthropic about it! Slow off the heels of my last adventure comes a tale so confusing that […]

I dig out one of my long neglected minis that I meant to put on display (purchased 2008?). Here I take Mebh the Ice Witch from Celtos and turn up the heat to create a basing scheme befitting the humid […]

After my relative success last year at Armies on Parade run through Games Workshop Uxbridge UK with my 3rd Armoured Division Savlar Chemdogs, which was my first ever project initiated through Beast of War and encouraged by the Spring Clean […]

Very late Spring Clean.

I received a letter from the NHS last week saying i am at high risk and should self isolate till mid June, So here I am self isolating in the attic bedroom/hobby room away from my wife and kids. since […]

This hobby space project began while attempting my first spring cleaning challenge with my Tomy train conversion. Unfortunately a large tea incident involving glue and paint put hold to that project temporarily while I committed to creating a hobby space. […]

It's my only hope...

Make diorama for the Spring Cleaning Hobby Challenge made only from bits that i have from my various bits boxes trying my hardest not to use parts from complete kits just old models and cast offs from previous builds. Ok […]

Nearly ten years ago, I hacked open a K838 digital photo frame and used the screen to create my own battery-powered pocket device. I turned it into a golf-score keeping gadget for my son-in-law (I don't play golf) and was […]

Having these lovely models either painted up or half painetd up, I'm planning on finishing and finally basing this army. Some of my best work at that point, but I was allways taken aback by how to base them.

I initially started these guys as a way to test out the GW Contrast paints with the intent to use them for AoS and for Saga Age of Magic. I ended up stalling a bit while trying to work out […]

With the release of Blood and Valor I have revisited my old collection is Great War miniatures originally used with Warhammer historicals Great War ruleset and giving them a spring clean and looking at the difference between the two systems

As many of you who have been around for a while, will know I am a big fan of Dropzone Commander. It's one of the best gaming systems I have ever played. However with the community for DZC going into […]

My stumblings into the ancient world of the Greeks and Persians.

A big push to get my 40K Orks army over the finish line and how i got myself to stay on track mentally...

It took me a while to decide what project I was going to tackle for the Spring Cleaning Challenge. Flames of War Afrika Korps or maybe rebase some of my Hail Caesar or my Dwarves for SAGA Age of Magic? […]

After being a Judge Dredd fan I couldnt help myself when I saw 'I am the Law' by warlord in my nearest hooby store.

It's been over a year since I last painted anything, so figure why not go big and aim to get all of the various Sisters of Battle from the new plastic range that I've been building since December painted? I've […]

I didn’t do the spring clean challenge last year but it inspired me to resurrect my Warhammer High Elfs and rebase them into a Kings of War army. I got a 1500pts force done. But haven’t done anything more since […]

This could be technically a Spring cleaning project if it wasn't for the fact that it has been a part of my hobby desk for as long as I can remember. 🙂 Time to get the Space Hulk set painted […]

So here I would like to present to you my new or better said old army which I have been pushing for 6 years. The new Flames of War book for the Waffen SS is coming soon. And in the […]

It's the perfect storm; lock-down, working from home and a Spring Clean Challenge. What better time to dust off some minis that have been sitting around for years and expand an army?

Finally. As many of you I have finally found time to do some hobby as I don't have to work from home anymore. I have had painted more than half of my Wolsung models from bootcamp and all stuff I […]

I brought some two Pendraken Warband armies about two years ago - built one and the other is still in their bags! I have decided to build the remaining models, paint them up and play a few games using these […]

This is my spring cleaning hobby challenge and a source of some amusement among my friends, due to timescale so far, and an embarrassing quantity of un-built, hidden away models. I will start with where i am up to, will […]

The goal for this spring clean hobby challenge is to make a roster of two kill teams plus options and a drop pod plus som other fun stuff related to the Space Marine White Templars chapter!

Renovating the chainsword I found on a carboot a few years ago. Who knew inquisitors had garage sales too? 🙂
