Scale comparison: New Space Marine Scouts
The new Space Marine Scouts from Kill Team: Salvation are now available in a box of their own.

Short review: Legions Imperialis Legiones Astartes & Solar Auxilia Support
With the Stormvault Skirmish Case, Games Workshop is redefining miniature transportation. Instead of traditional foam inserts, they’re introducing soft silicone bristles for a secure grip. Is this a brilliant innovation or an overpriced gimmick? We’ll find out in our review.

Review: Warpaints Fanatic by The Army Painter – best paints in the world?
This is an honest and unbiased review of the new Warpaints Fanatic. If there is one thing that The Army Painter is good at, then it’s generating buzz on social media. However, I found that their quality control can be hit or miss. Over the last couple of years, I tested all major miniature paint ranges, so I have a really good idea of what acrylic paint can do these days. I tried all 216 colours of the new range, and I’ll tell you if The Army Painter can live up to their promises.

Review: AK Interactive Deep Shade acrylic washes
A lot of people didn’t like it when Games Workshop changed the formula of their Shade paints and reduced the size of the pots. So that’s why I’m always on the lookout for better and cheaper alternatives. The new Deep Shade washes from AK Interactive seemed promising, but when I put them on a model, the results were not what I was expecting at all.
