Showcase: Space Wolves Long fang pack 1
A recent commission of two long fang packs, the first for horde control! 2 Plasma Cannons and 3 Heavy Bolters. While I’m not a huge fan of the newer cartoony Space Wolf kits, I’ve got to confess I had great fun mixing and matching to…
Review: Ott-Lite Task Lamp
I’ve been meaning to try a new light source for a while. I thought I’d give the Ott-Lite Task Lamp a go. At £32 (plus £6 shipping) it wasn’t going to break the bank even if it wasn’t suitable. Full review after the jump. So…
Chat: 25 years of 40k
So who made it to their store yesterday for the 25th Anniversary celebrations? I for one did not, though I have heard from a number of sources that queues were backed up for long distances and that they ran out of stocks of celebratory goodies…
Chat: Airbrush & Hobby Setup
Last year I was very nearly forced to quit the hobby. Find out why after the jump. My family and I recently moved house to a pad with no spare room/loft space. Combined with the fact that the children are still pretty small and inquisitive…
Tutorial: Rev’s Caestus Assault Ram
Here is how I painted the Assault ram. Full tutorial after the jump. 1) First of all you need to consider whether you want the inside painted or not. Of course, if you’ve spent over £100 on big lumps of resin, chances are you’re serious…
Showcase: Caestus Assault Ram
Finished, and what a kit. This is the biggest FW kit I’ve put together, not yet being in the Titan club, (I’m in the ‘where would my wife let me keep it’ club instead). It wasn’t too bad actually, compared to the AWFUL Mk2b Landraider…
Showcase: Eldar Skimmer Army
I rocked the tournament scene with this army a few years back. Since then it’s gathered dust on my shelf (apart from a brief outing into the warhammer world display cabinets) so I’ve decided to put it on Ebay. I ran it with Eldrad, 3…
WIP: Caestus Assault Ram #2
By popular demand, another (gasp!) WIP post. It’s the assault ram again, which is in fact very nearly complete. In this picture you can see that the ‘sponge’ method of weathering with charadon granite and boltgun is complete and weathering powders have been applied. The…
Showcase: Blood Bowl Lizardmen
I’ve got to admit, of all my teams THIS is my favourite. I love Lizardmen. I love the Kroxigor (Helldorado mini), I love Saurii and I love skinks. I love this team. My tactics involve run, run, run – attempt to pick up – then…
Review: Bugman’s Fatbloke Burger
This is quite a week for me. Not only did I produce a WIP post, but in addition I’ve got a hobby review for you. I was in Warhammer world today collecting two armies that I’d had on display in the miniature hall cabinets. As…
