For years... since X-Wing first came out... I have been meaning to build a battle board using a vinyl mat. So it's about time I got around to it. The plan is to make it multi-purpose as it's a 3x3 […]

I realised that I often don't post the things that I paint online. That might be because I'm not happy with the painting, or I can't think of anything to say about them, or (most likely) I forget to snap […]

Just somewhere to dump photos of my hobby progress for 2026

This is where I'll keep track of my painting projects for this year. I tend to paint a variety of models.

Come listen to two aging nerds chatting over films that have some link to the tabletop hobby

I have a chance to go to Warhammer World under the weak guise of work but I want to make a bigger deal out of it. What will I play? What do I need to paint? Will I be able […]

My second project of the year will be focused on getting my boardgames ready for the table. Hopefully this will spur me on to complete and play a bunch more games this year, as I generally do not like to […]

Another year, another project to pretend I'll be organised or remotely focused.

I will discuss here why i think women don't seem to be interested in miniature wargames.

Just happened to jump on some terrain ideas and realised it is Terrainfest season. Will probably be jumping from project to project and genre to genre on this.

I have used cheap plastic boxes for years. As most of us have done. Now I caved and bought 5 RUBs. This is their story.

I will discuss here when and how our hobby will be affected by generative A.I.

This is something I have wanted to do for quite a long time and I have spent the last few months preparing for the launch of Terrainfest 2025. Over the years I have invested quite a lot in scenery, but […]

I have a stack of unbuilt terrain for a multitude of different genres and scales that require building and painting. I also need to scratch build some hedgerows, fences, ploughed fields and rivers.

I have a few bits planned for this year’s terrainfest. The main thing is a 3D printed cargo ship that a friend gave me. It’s a hefty beast, and will be used as terrain for my future sci-fi skirmish project […]

Tackling a big army paint can be a grind for some people,yes I banged out a starter army last week. But I don't want to do that level of intensity every week. So I decided to take a different approach....

Hello and welcome to my project with Highlights and images from Warlord Games Open Day 2025.

I have decided to help keep my motivation, to do a weekly update of what I have been doing. This will hopefully stave off the fatigue of the never ending pile of potential, and also reassure me that I am […]

In May of 2025 I needed to find a new place to live after being in a one bedroom apartment for the last twenty years, ten of which I was a caregiver for an elderly friend next door. I also […]

It's that time of year again, ORKTOBER! Whatever is on the workbench get put on hold for the month while I add something to my ever growing hoard. This year, the project is smaller than usual, a five piece group […]

I decided as a white man it was my duty to create a podcast because it's very important that people hear what I have to say. Or. I just felt like it and thought it would be abit of craic.

Much like previous years, for this year’s Spring Clean challenge, rather than a single project, I will be working on various pieces that have either been languishing on my painting desk, waiting for a much needed refresh, or just grabbing […]

A log of all the stuff I get done this year

My buddy @144Artist is super active. I dip in now and again. I’ve got a spring cleaning project of clearing all those misc stalled painting projects that have been taking up space on my workbench.

First time getting into a miniatures game that requires terrain, painted models and a decent sized table. Using this project as a way to keep myself motivated to complete it and to gain any advice or knowledge from onlookers. Hopefully […]

After 30+ years in the Hobby and having moved house last summer, two things have happened: 1) from feb '24 - feb'25 I painted a grand total of 14 models (all for Salute '24), all 10mmm scale. I usually aim […]

I thought I would just do a general project of my 2025 hobby activity this year. So I will try to load up what i have done each month.It will be a miss-mass of projects through out this year.

Got some stuff off Amazon, FDM printed 3D terrain

A quick experiment I tried that I thought others might like to see!?

Kirriemuir Wargames Club meets at the Guide Halls the last Sunday of the month January to November and the middle Sunday of December at 10am. Targe, their annual wargame show, is the first Saturday in November. These are my continuing […]

One of the prime advantages of being a Tonbridge resident, has to be that we graciously accommodate the far flung foreigners from Royal Tunbridge Wells, in hosting their annual Wargames Show 'Cavalier! The show is well run and and friendly, […]

Building carry case for miniatures.

When I did this last year, I wasn’t sure if it would be a good idea to lump all my miniature painting for the year into one massive year-long project. But it seems to have been received pretty well, so […]

A log of all the side quests and tangents I end up on... there are so many

This is where I'll keep track of my painting projects for this year. I tend to paint a variety of models.

My 2025 hobby, WIPs and progress.

A hobby log to track the year of The Project Project. Trying to break my habit of leaving projects half finished in my wake... can this old dog teach itself a new trick?

This is the year long project for Collins. It will show the new years resolution and show whether it is stuck to though 2025.

My hobby goal for 2025 is to play more board games again, having taken a break from them in 2024. I play solo, long content board games, such as Aeon Trespass Odyssey, Tainted Grail, and now Heroes of Might and […]

Random Half-Baked Idea #463132154-A: What if all the studios that make all the shitty Xmas movies engaged in the highest levels of espionage and warfare? ------------- Beneath the glittering facade of holiday cheer lies a battlefield where studios, political factions, […]
