My Flames of War Panzer Lehr force is growing in size, so I decided to take a few minutes to take some pictures. I have loads of things to paint, but an armoured heavy mortar platoon is probably next on my list. Owen

My newly painted Cryxian force faced off against Phil’s Protectorate of Menoth tonight. Phil is an old hand at the Protectorate and I’m relatively inexperienced with Cryx. We are, however, both very experienced at playing Warmachine, so I knew this was going to be a challenge. We decided on a simple 500pt kill the ‘caster [...]

This is not a general purpose article on how to photograph miniatures, despite the title. It is a guide to how I shoot ‘quick’ photographs. By quick I mean picking up the camera, grabbing a sheet of A4, placing the miniature, turning on the lamp and then shooting. Post editing is optional, but worth the [...]

This two-battle campaign describes the events of the following day, when the 501st, 502nd and 506th PIR encountered the German counter attacking force consisting of paratroopers and the 17th SS Panzergrenadier Division to the southwest of the city.

My Legion of Everblight photographs. I’ve plenty more painted – I just need to get the camera out and take more pictures. Owen

I’ve been painting these for a long time and the photographs represent what I’d painted up to the end of 2007. There are a few more bits painted. I’ll hopefully photograph them soon. Owen
