I’ve always been a fan of pButcher, but have yet to try his epic version. I painted this model up a while ago, but didn’t get around to taking decent photos until recently. I procrastinated a long time before painting this model, but I’m not sure why. He’s easy to paint and even the base [...]

This is a quick overview of a game Phil and I played (on VASSAL) using the Apprentice Warcasters that I mentioned previously. The idea behind these guys is that we wanted a commander for small forces where it didn’t make sense for a full blown Warcaster to be in control. Khador have some options in [...]

I’ve been painting a Ravagore for this month’s “Paint the Target” challenge from Lost Hemisphere. I decided to paint this guy at them same time. He turned out pretty well. Owen

Phil and I are about to kick off another ANNIHILATION campaign on VASSAL and we thought it’d be a bit of fun to have a couple of small games as a prelude to the campaign. We didn’t really want any warcasters involved as such powerful characters can overwhelm a small military action. We decided we’d [...]

I completed Samael Hopkins ahead of a game tomorrow. Here’s a couple of photos – I painted this model using a variation of the underpainting technique. First it was undercoated white and then washed with a watered down codex grey. All of the colours were applied as washes (apart from the flesh and the metals). [...]

I like Malifaux. I like the fiction. I like the models. I like the mechanics. However, I’ve only played 3-4 games. The problem is that it was the new shiny a while ago, but now it is somewhat out of favour. Quite a few players still have sizable collections and I think all it would [...]

Paul and I are planning a mixed Flames of War and Nuts! Italian WWII campaign based around Solerno over the summer. These are the first of my 28mm Bolt Action paratroopers from Warlord Games. Owen

The site has been under the weather for the last couple of days with a hard to track down piece of malware. Thankfully the Ravagore (and its Eyeless Sight) chased it away (or maybe it was me after a lot of cursing!) Owen
