RuneBrush's Painting & Miniature Blog
Myself and many other Khorne players are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the new Blades of Khorne Battletome this weekend (8th April). The announcement came in the middle of March that we were getting one and we got a bit more information this Saturday when pre-orders went live. Needless to say, we’ve had a number […]
Continue ReadingGames Workshop are certainly running in top gear at the moment. The early hours of Tuesday morning saw a surprise preview of Duardin Kharadron Overlords, a new Starter Set game in the form of Thunder & Blood, Warhammer Underworlds: Shadowspire, an Age of Sigmar competitive game and Shadow War: Armageddon which is based on the original […]
Continue ReadingSo my Khorne Bloodbound has begun to grow from it’s small 1000 points and last Friday I began to put together a second unit of Blood Warriors, though this time armed with paired Goreaxes (which allows me to re-roll To Hit rolls of 1 in combat). My original intention had been to assemble five of the box […]
Continue ReadingTransporting miniatures is probably one of the most frustrating elements for gamers and even more so for those of us who use public transport to get around. There are a plethora of miniature carry cases on the market which include offerings from KR Multicase, Battlefoam and Feldhur who provide a range of different transportation options.
Continue ReadingOK, I admit it – 2016 was a year full of blogging and 2017 has been rubbish so far! I could hide behind a number of excuses but primarily it’s been a lack of time both for writing and visible progress being pretty slow on projects. Currently I’ve got three main projects on the go: […]
Continue ReadingIn less than a couple of weeks, a few hundred die hard fans will be heading to Nottingham for the Horus Heresy Weekender 2017! This event has rapidly become one of the highlights of the year for fans of the heresy and this year I’m sure will be no different. So this post has been […]
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 – […]

On the 15th October was Armies on Parade 2016 and I took the plunge and entered my Khorne Bloodbound into the Swindon Warhammer store. I didn’t place for a medal but did get 6th place out of 15 entries which I’m fairly chuffed about. Armies on Parade 2016 Having never been to an Armies on Parade event before I […]

As I planned a few weeks back, I took a small hiatus from my Slaughterpriests and put some work into my Realm of Battle boards. I’ve had these boards for at least five years now and have had to contend with models slipping and sliding all over the place when I’ve used them to game […]

This week has seen me start of painting up two of the Khorne Slaughterpriests I’ve got, which seems to be a common theme due to the one being given away for free on the September 2016 issue of White Dwarf. Because I’ve no real time constraints or pressures I’m spending a bit longer on painting […]
Continue ReadingI’m very pleased to say that I achieved my goal of getting my Khorne Skull Cannon painted! I’ve got to varnish and sort the base out but in principal I’ve another unit to add to my Goretide – which actually would transfer over to 40k too. So in a change from my regular procrastination this post […]

Continue ReadingScarily we’re now a week into September and already the nights are noticeably drawing in and the temperature chilling down – autumn is well on its way and I thought it was a good point to go over my plan for the Goretide over the next few months. Apologies that we’re a bit “picture light” […]

After the frantic amount of painting undertaken in the lead up to the Seeds of Hope campaign, I’ve been taking things a bit easier and been painting up a Khorne Skullcannon to add a bit of ranged firepower to my Age of Sigmar army. This “hobby light” period has been intentional to prevent any potential […]
Continue ReadingWell the dust has settled from the excitement of the Age of Sigmar Open Day at the weekend and I’m finally back in the land of the living. So where to start – the beginning is probably a good place! Firstly, here’s the link to the photos I took: https://flic.kr/s/aHskGy8eeZ With most events at Warhammer World I […]
Continue Reading“The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry” I think this saying pretty much sums up my progress over the past week for my Khorne Bloodbound. I had originally planned that from last Friday when I got home I would have a pretty clear run of hobby time with nothing to stop […]
Continue ReadingHot on the heals of the Forge World Open Day, the next bit of excitement has been the release of the Age of Sigmar Generals Handbook! I headed over to my closest Games Workshop store (Swindon) and managed to pick up one of only 12 copies the store received. I’ve said it before, but I […]
Continue ReadingWith each event I attend of Games Workshops’ the quality and organisation continues to improve. It would appear that the events team have managed to shackle the unruly organisation beast and now making it sing to their tune. Myself and Penddraig arrived at Warhammer World for the Forge World Open Day around 9am and the […]
