The third progress post for Armies on Parade 2017 sees some long overdue work on the guns for my Acastus Knight Porphyrion. Oddly large weapons are one part of models that I struggled with for inspiration. The engineer part of me wants to make sure that the weapon looks technically feasible, but this tends to […]

In the second progress post for Armies on Parade 2017, I focus on the Imperial Knight Bases for my Questoris Household, it’s something I’ve actually put off for quite a while as I wasn’t entirely sure what I wanted to do. Armies on Parade Board I’ve covered this a little more in-depth in a couple of […]
Continue ReadingA slightly belated Happy New Year! In this post I go over progress on my Acastus Knight Porphyrion, putting together my AoS Death army and the plans I’ve got for 2017 – needless to say, I’m planning far too much! I spent quite a bit of time not at home over Christmas, so though I made […]
Continue ReadingThe Forge World Acastus Knight Porphyrion was unveiled at the Horus Heresy Weekender in February put up for sale last week and I can happily say that I have one of these in my hands and what a beast! Weighing in at 1.6Kg and pretty much the same height as a Warhound Titan the Acastus […]
Continue ReadingI’ve come to the conclusion that every six months or so, I have a bit of a hobby wobble and need to give myself both a kick up the backside and a change of scenery. Quite often this coincides with being stupidly busy, which is what seems to have happened over the past month – […]
Continue ReadingIt’s been a frantic few weeks where I’ve been out quite a bit and also been frantically preparing for a game I had with my brother last Sunday. This post is sadly going to have to suffice for the next fortnight too as I’m going to Berlin with work next week. Thirty Years of Space […]
Continue ReadingI seem to have hit a bit of a ‘bloggers block’ recently, so have decided to write about the couple of Space Wolves Dreadnoughts that I’m currently kit bashing. I think this must be the forth attempt to write this post over the past couple of weeks as my earlier attempts were just creating posts […]
Continue ReadingThe last week has been exceptionally busy in the “real world”, so this and a little lack of enthusiasm on my part has meant that the amount of hobby achieved has sadly been fairly low. I have managed to finish the Thunder Hammer on my Wulfen wielding that and Storm Shield. I chose a blue steel […]
Continue ReadingWell Forgeworld are teasing us again with their latest blog post! It would appear that the long awaited Heresy Space Wolves upgrade pack is very soon to be released to the public. If past teasers are anything to go by then we can expect a release the end of this week. Interestingly the old Space […]
Continue ReadingIf you’re a Space Wolves player you’ll likely have come across the Space Wolves Blog over on blogspot. It’s an excellent resource for all things related to the army both in terms of modelling and gaming articles and has a pretty active group of commenter’s both on the blog and over on their Facebook page. […]
Continue ReadingI’m pleased to say that my unit of Wulfen stormed across the battlefield this weekend and caused havoc. I’ll go into more detail of how they perform and a bit of a review on Warzone Fenris towards the end of this post 🙂 Despite my best efforts I didn’t manage to finish painting the unit […]

Continue ReadingThe last week has been a pretty busy one with only a small amount of time for any hobby work. There has been a fairly significant release for the Space Wolves and Daemons in the form of a new campaign pack – Warzone Fenris. This introduces some updated rules for both, some new Space Wolves […]
Continue ReadingWeek 4 #GWfor52 progress on my mechanicum knights and how the 52 week challenge is keeping me moticated
Continue ReadingI’m starting to enjoy this 52 week challenge! Week 3’s targets have been comfortably achieved and I’ve done a few other bits to boot! Firstly I’ve created myself a Twitter account. Although I’m generally against “personal” Twitter accounts where people post up the fact they’ve just made a sandwich or gone to the toilet, I […]
Continue ReadingWell it’s not quite a Sunday post, but it’s a post within a week and quite a long one at that 🙂 Firstly an up to date progress shot of my three Imperial Knights. As you can see (or not, the winter weather doesn’t make it easy to take a photo with a phone camera), the […]
Continue ReadingDo you know how sometimes something you’re working on just “goes right”. You barely put a brush stroke wrong and everything comes together really well. Well I’m happy to say that my Wolf Priest sits quite nicely in that category. For those who aren’t big in the whole Space Wolf ethos and background, Wolf Priests […]
Continue ReadingHi folks, yes I’ve been rubbish at putting anything on the blog. A combination of real life being far too busy and lack of enthusiasm to touch a computer have kept me away from here. Which is actually a bit of a shame as I’ve been progressing really well on the painting front. My Rune […]
Continue ReadingWhat’s this? A second post within a week! OK, I’ll admit it’s me wanting to show off a little as I’m quite chuffed with the progress I’ve made on my Rune Priest conversion. I say conversion loosely, it’s a 100% plastic offering but with a bit of modification. The photo to the right shows the current […]
Continue ReadingWell the last post wasn’t quite two months ago but not too far off. Life is roughly the same, I’m still working very long hours but managing to get a bit of painting done most evenings. I’m continuing to focus on my Space Wolves and this has started to pay off (although it’s really tempting […]
