The High Elves have heard the call to Saga Age of Magic, they are now getting a spring clean!
A few years ago I started a Medieval army with the aim of playing Lion's Rampart but I relocated and in my current gaming club no one plays Medieval historical. So I decided to Spring Clean the army into a […]
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 […]
I'll be teaching myself how to play and playing some games alone
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, […]
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.
Spring Clean Challenge. If the challenge is about revisiting projects, there are two warbands gathering dust and I have been putting off for ages. I started both primed Mournfang Brown and struggled like hell to get the flesh parts (the […]
Two years ago Gerry (@Avernos) gifted me the most wonderful D&D miniature red dragon ....... My favourite colour being turquoise we decided on the spot to paint in that colour. The plan for the dragon is to paint it and […]
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.
Combining some of the nice game mechanics from Sharp Practice with the Warhammer game to test it's applicability for small scale, solo and narrative style play.
Taking up the gauntlet thrown down my Justin I will be recycling some Wrath of Kings minis into Saga Age of Magic army.
I made a painting guide to paint a slave (Rashar) from the new 2 player Carnevale box. This to give people ideas because there are not a lot of tutorials or guides for painting Carnevale miniatures. I will try to […]
Inspired by Justin's challenge, Ben's love of Dwarves and Gerry's love of Saga/Historicals I have dusted of a couple of projects from the distant past. I recently decided to time my painting, particularly batch painting and I have roughly a […]
The painted models for the board game Perdition's Mouth Abyssal rift.
I made a painting guide to paint a lesser ugdru from the new 2 player Carnevale box. This to give people ideas because there are not a lot of tutorials or guides for painting Carnevale miniatures. I will try to […]
From of the 2 player Carnevale box de popular Gondelier. This to give people ideas because there are not a lot of tutorials or guides for painting Carnevale miniatures. I will try to do this for all miniatures in the […]
This was because I missed paying it forward and one bad idea turned into the next and before you know it a couple of weeks was gone. And at this point I am procrastinating on my main project but this […]
I've been building my army since my Soulwars box. And tested several lists. I found a list I like, but they all need a specific army colour scheme.
Next up a female civilian of the 2 player Carnevale box. This to give people ideas because there are not a lot of tutorials or guides for painting Carnevale miniatures. I will try to do this for all miniatures in […]
With all the fun new fantasy skirmish games coming out (Warlords of Erehwon, Saga, Age of Magic and Dragon Rampant) I new I wanted to add a big monster to my undead forces. This Zombie T-rex was a perfect fit.
So a friend of mine has recently started getting into Blood Bowl via the computer game. He's never really been a tabletop gamer but after challenging him to a couple of games online he's keen to try out a game […]
Working alongside Lance, Sam and Ryan to bring to life a Warhammer Underworlds Warband to use in games when I get over to them at HQ!
With the glorious re-assurgence of Runequest and Glorantha (I will be purchasing the slipcase edition tommorow) I will be painting and converting models building scenery (two boards worth, one based on a Dark Age style settlement to represent Sartar and […]
I saw Laughingboy's Vermintide post and it inspired some kit bashing. I think I will make a few survivors, but never playing Vermintide or Mordheim etc. I feel I need to do a little research before I look at a […]
My project for the office Shadespire gaming.
A friend of mine dropped off a few models some of which are characters from the Vikings TV series and asked if I could put some paint on them.
Last fall my LGS convinced me to build battle boards and terrain for their new store. It was a project that went from ‘a few boards’ as we ordered our first pints, to a monster undertaking where I somehow agreed […]
When the Skaven ascended on the town of Halfont the Mayor turned to the closest group of Mercenaries he could find. It just so happened that the closest Mercenary Group was damn good at their job. The Starlight Company will […]
hi everyone, i finally got my 4 year old daughter interested in some hobbying, but as soon as she discovered painting miniatures she was hooked, and i had to find some minis for her to paint. she kept asking for […]
Making terrain pieces for Warhammer Underworlds
Some of us here in the office have become trapped within the cursed world of Warhammer Underworlds' Shadespire city and are putting together our own warbands to see who will reign supreme. I chose the warband Mollog's Mob. Centred around […]
During a discussion on the forums about how cool the 80s were, we discussed lots of things from 8-bit computers to TV shows. A few clicks later and I had half a dozen MOTU minis ordered from Quest Miniatures on […]
I've started this blog to track the progress of my Gloomspite Gitz army as a test out what I like and don't like as I look to create a list I like as I go along. I'm mainly a painter […]
Gloomspite Gitz are the silliest faction in Age of Sigmar. So why not theme their army after the silliest evil animated creatures ?
Here I will collect a bunch of my finished (speedpainted) 3D-printed miniatures and terrain. I include som old posts from my blog themountainsofminis.com as I have printed a lot of stuff, but not really built nor painted much of it […]
My Brother bought me a copy of the latest Blood Bowl for Christmas! ( DAMN IT! AS IF I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TO PAINT...) I've decided to paint the teams as those shown on the box art.The Reikland Reavers and […]
My take on the gorgeous Dunkeldorf miniatures from King Games.
A place to drop plenty of different projects which I'm working on right now, exploring different ranges and one-off miniatures.
This was created mainly to show Torros pics of Magister Militums Gobbos and Dwarves. The plan is to use "spare/unutilised minis for Rick Preistly's new fantasy set Warlords of Erehwon.
A long term project to produce some warbands and armies for the current GW offerings...
This project is to chronicle my character in our current campaign of Dungeons & Dragons 5e. I will try to include most every aspect of my character, such as backstory, character build, his adventures, and hopefully, work on a miniature […]
