I am going back to some of my old, previously abandoned Lord of the Rings models and refreshing them with the aim of bringing old armies back to the gaming table, please follow along.
TLDR: I'm going to buy toys, cut them up, glue stuff to them, paint them, and hope it looks cool.
First crack at a OTT project ^-^ In v3 I had 800 points of the big 4(German,US, British and soviets) for late war . With the newish V4 book I decided to upgrade my forces! So here are my project […]

This is the project to document my Undead Warband for Saga: Age of Magic. It includes a model from a previous project, my Zombie T-rex (https://www.beastsofwar.com/project/1373509/). The skeletons, I painted about 3 years ago, but I didn't get them based […]
Inspired by the Beasts of War crew. I am re basing my old Chaos army on round bases. Starting with a cavalry unit. Then on wards and upwards! SAGA and Warlords of Erehwon and possibly AoS. Im not sure if […]

Moving Bookshelves, Building a Desk, Hanging Pegboard, Reworking Hobby Bench, generally getting everything back up to workable status!
A while ago now I won a box of around 50 miniatures all themed around Vikings, so given all the love for SAGA at the moment I wondered if I could make an army.
My Spring Cleaning thread is just a bunch of small tasks I've been putting aside for whatever reason. Some rebasing and some repainting for the most part. Nothing too fancy, but feel free to take a look. Feedback and suggestions […]
For the past two years I wanted to get into historical wargaming and I finally did! I bought my first historical miniatures for the Eighty Years War. Never heard of this war? The extremely short description: a war between the […]
Bought some models from these guys at Salute a few years ago. Still finding little gems after moving house. Found the models in a foam case....totally forgot how awesome these models are. I've started painting these guys to try out […]
After finishing the High Elves, I have turned my sights onto taking an old Warriors of Chaos Army, and resurecting it into a Fantasy Knights of the Darkness Army for Sage Age of Magic
I thought I would give this contest ago. This has been sitting on the shelf for years (I think I got this when it came out) and it has been so nearly finished, this is just the spur I need […]
Jumping into the spring cleaning madness with my old Dwarf army.
The first Army (or even miniatures) I ever painted back in 2015 when I got into the hobby was the Elves from the Isle of Blood set (funny enough the Skaven was my second) so for this Spring Clean I […]
With a bit of luck (and the help of a fellow gamer) I now can join this competition. 22 years ago I bought my first White Dwarf and shortly after that my first paint set.
So after many many years the dream is becoming a reality. I finally have the space needed to convert the shed into a man cave of my very own. Its not the biggest but it away from the goblin hoard... […]
Some minis fall out of grace and by the wayside for one reason or the other, not to be taken out of storage until decades have passed. Decades! Inspired by the OTT "Spring Cleaning" challenge, we will try to heal […]
A project to log progress on Wolf Lord Warzan and his Great Company of Space Wolves. Starting from a painted unwanted army, progressing through a Spring Clean to achieve a nice (hopefully) tabletop force for OTT.

With the release of the new Abaddon the despoiler model i had a thought, like any heretic chaos player in the late 90's I had a copy of the original somewhere, with that in mind I searched the house and […]
Spring Clean Hobby Challenge 2022 to deal with a largely unpainted game I've been ignoring for almost a decade: Dreadball. The goal is to get stuff painted fast and to a tabletop standard, not slow and to a high standard. […]
Saga and Warlords of Erehwon have motivated me to break out some old minis from various ranges and build a few small fantasy armies. The first of these, is an army based on GW Fyreslayers. While I like the minis, […]
I love the Freelance Knight that I've held onto for so long. Getting crap out of the Hoard of Shame and actually covered in paint worthy of keeping them around is the aim. My time limit is to get it […]
After Lloyd and Gerry( @ avernos ) went through their armies for Saga it prompted me to look through what armies I have lying finished or work in progress in my multitude of tool boxes and cupboards.
Time to finish an old project....what will it be?
Here I will rake through my box of forgotten projects and paint some of them. I'll even try and find a use for them.
These are the voyages of the Shadespire spring clean challenge. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new paints. To seek out new small painting projects and new warbands. To boldly deviate from the box art, correcting paint jobs that once […]
This is my project for the Spring Cleaning event. I recently bought an Ogre army with the intention of using straight away in Saga: Age of Magic. However, the Ogres were not as good as I first thought so I […]
My attempt to bring Rogue Trader miniatures back to the table and make them a viable alternative to their modern counterparts.

Taking up the gauntlet thrown down my Justin I will be recycling some Wrath of Kings minis into Saga Age of Magic army.
I've been planning this for a while, but when I spotted the Spring Cleaning Hobby Challenge I thought I'd actually move this forward and out of private mode. I plan on plotting the progress of the painting and development of […]
I have a core set, the Pandoras Box, and Echidna's Children expansion and I plan on slowly painting through it, working around or along side my other projects. I'm in no rush to get this done.
So had to build a kill team for my son to play with at school and being the hopeless collector this meant I then wanted to build as many kill teams as I could. Let’s go!
