Went all-in on the first Kickstarter a couple of years ago. Did a little bit of painting after playing the first game (I know it's a sin to play with unpainted minis). The second game I had some minis painted […]
Previously planned to paint my Mythic Battles Pantheon set in a style like 300/Sun City (comic) It contained mainly black and white minis with only 2 colours added to the mini. This worked fine to a point and looked great […]
I love the imagery of the dark age of sigmar so I'm breathing life into my old bretonian force to create a small skirmish force for Age of Sigmar.
Clearing the Flames of War debris from my desk I realise I have a chance to get on board the Spring Cleaning Challenge. Looking at my choices I realize that pretty much everything I have to choose from is spring […]
I've been part of this glorious hobby for a rather long time, and I've never really gotten an army painted...until now! I have been working on this for a while, so there is plenty of stuff already done, but there […]
When notice of Battlefront's Fate of a Nation book was announced I decided to try my hand at an IDF army. As with so much of my building and painting that army is still mostly just a pile of shame. […]
Can you clean a wasteland? Not sure but I certainly can paint the backlog of Fallout terrain I’ve been accumulating since the game launched! I’m looking to create options to make tables for thematic Fallout scenarios for Fallout Wasteland Warfare, […]
A while back I brought Imperial Knights Renegade (two 40k Knights for the price of one!) but never got around to building let alone painting them. So I am starting one now. I've got an idea that somehow an Imperial […]
I'm working on a Belgian army for early war World War II. It'll be used for Bolt Action and Chain of Command primarily. I am painting the following units for it: Four squads of ten regular infantry (one is completed […]
So I have had a large chunk of my Rohan Army built yet un painted for the last 5 years. 1. I had 1/2 painted my Royal Guard 3 years ago so that became my initial focus over he last […]
A couple of models from Rude Minis' "Make Your Miniatures Collection Great Again" Kickstarter. They arrived in early 2019 and it's about time I got some paint on them.
Going through and finishing some projects, kickstarters, boardgames etc.
My Space Wolves 'Rhino Family' From my current attempts to create a Space Wolves Great Company that was started in about 2009 (yes 2009). I work offshore so my hobby time is limited, I have a bad habit of starting […]
I try and unbox and rebox a bunch of old projects and build 22 kits at once!
Inspired by the Spring Clean idea, I explored deep in to the man cave and discovered a forgotten purchase, the Red Veil box for Infinity. I've looked at this game so many times in the past, but never actually played […]
Spring Challenge 2020 COVID19 Edition. - Clearing out some old boxes of my pile of shame!
HeroQuest is a much loved game in the family and we play it often, I have for quite some time now tossed with the idea of painting it and given the spring clean challenge and the lockdown now seems like […]
Lockdown and holidays. No better time to clear the shelf of shame. I'v had this Renedra barn getting ready on the "to-do" shelf for two years now. Two of our gaming buddies went away (one in the South-West, the other […]
Brisket Bust by Broken Toad: Lawnor’s first ever bust (& a cheeky attempt at winning the Spring Cleaning comp)
0I've had this bust for 6 months and been avoiding it. Busts are intimidating. I've cleared a lot of my backlog and the KS project I want to be working on is trapped in France (I think) due to Coronavirus, […]
To date, I have only painted one 15mm figure and he has been over-used in the project photos. I thought I would take a break from the JOA terrain painting and draft in a few peasants and their livestock to […]
So, I won this scenery from a Weekender at the end of last year and never really got to it as there was always something else to do. However, with the Spring Clean Hobby Challenge in effect, I have set […]
Now that the JOA Castle is 'done' I wanted to start getting the some of the other buildings painted. For this project I am going to use mainly Contrast Paints to see if I can get quick but decent effect […]
This is my go at assembling and painting the characters from Knight Models' Harry Potter miniature adventure game. I like the universe and cannot find too many related projects or painting tutorials on the interwebs. If all goes well, I […]
My "stay sane during the lockdown project".
Many moons ago, I backed the reboot of the amazing game TORG Eternity. I backed it at a level that got me the miniatures for the game. Here I will chronicle me pulling them out of storage and putting them […]
I fell in love with the minis and the lets plays on this site for Guild Ball. I started by priming, painting the balls and mascots and then tried to explain the rules to my son to play with the […]
Hobby Challenge 2020, looking through my many (many ?) options for the spring clean and landed on the latest iteration of my original army Chaos Dwarfs! Everyone has that army that is theirs, whether it was the first or the […]
Last year I started to paint up the 15mm Joan of Arc Kickstarter. I wanted to start on the terrain bits first as I haven’t done a lot of painting for a while and have lost a lot of confidence. […]
The Spring Clean Hobby Challenge has been accepted and it will bring to light an army that goes right back to the initial inspiration for me to get back into the hobby. I'll go through the whole process from inspiration […]
Skullsplitter here from the SF Bay CA, Wargamer, boardgamer, and Goblin Standard bearer for the Epic Fantasy Metal Band WarTroll. https://wartroll.bandcamp.com/ During the summer we did a purge of old games and toys to the Goodwill. My son had this […]
Tarting up some 15mm MDF Terrain
This is hopefully going to be the year that I finally finish painting the Warhammer Quest game I bought many moons ago. I remember coming home from school and ignoring my home work completely as there was a big box […]
Sylvaneth - they have seen many battles but are still in bare plastic, however! Since they've been winning many battles I think it's time they recieved a lick of paint. This is a step by step of my process for […]
Shortly after Wargames Foundry established itself back in the 1980s, I purchased a sample pack of their ECW figures and I loved them. So, I thought, why not build two armies (I'm a solo player) and set about looking at […]
Decided I'd add some knights into my Death Guard army. Not for a competitive build, but because I loved the models. Two converted Armiger Warglaves using bits of various chaos gubbins including left overs from a Great Unclean One. For […]
This is esoteric cleaning, as won’t actually clean my closets of unpainted minis or unfinished terrain, here I will grapple with all the techniques, materials, ideas and inspirations I always wanted to use but never did. I don’t know what […]
After 4 years finaly hoping to complete my (Beyond) Red Veil miniatures.
In early 2019 I started building a Home Guard army for Chain of Command. While researching, I stumbled upon the above photo of a British Home Guard armored train. How cool is that?! I had to build it. The parts […]
So…I've fallen in love with the world of Infinity. I've acquired a boat load of their metal. I've assembled quite a bit of it. I started and finished painting up most of the Aristeia! minis. However, to date I've not […]
In October 2016 I bought this awesome looking big Jean Hoefler 1970s castle toy from my oldest brother who collect old toys. It was just laying on a shelf, so I asked my brother if I could buy it from […]
