RuneBrush's Painting & Miniature Blog
I’ve been merrily assembling tiny tanks and marines for Legions Imperialis over the past five weeks or so and in this (second) post, I show my progress so far. My first post covers a review of the box and some concerns I have over the longevity of the game.

On occasion I come across a website that makes me sit up and go “how have I missed this?” and those were the words I uttered when first came across ‘Eavy Archive.

And another three weeks have vanished but I’ve clocked up a whopping 89 hours worth of hobby! Project wise I’ve finished my Legions of Nagash army and now taking a break by painting up some old Warhammer scenery pieces that I’ve had for ages. Since my last post, we’ve had the “Beast from the East” […]
Continue ReadingI may have underestimated quite how much time 60 Deathrattle Skeletons were going to take to pick out the belts and random bits of cloth and other details that festoon these models! I’ve managed to clock up a massive 27 hours this past week, despite not having much time over the weekend. What I have […]

So week 4 has come and flown past in a flurry of bones as I’ve worked on the Deathrattle Skeletons horde for my Death army, with the aim of fielding them as part of a new Death army I’d like to run in a tournament the beginning of March. Because I’m pretty tight on time, I decided […]
Continue ReadingThe second week of #52wkhobby has flown past and my Bloodthirster is almost complete. I did have an unplanned diversion though and started playing with some Deathrattle Skeletons… Apologies on the slight delay on getting this post up, I wanted to pop up a photo of the wings and it took me an age to take […]

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 […]
Continue ReadingWell that’s another week gone and we’re now past the longest day and almost half way through the year. It’s been a pretty crazy year so far in the real world and the hobby world has been an exciting one too and not showing any signs of letting up with things like the Age of […]
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 ReadingI’m pleased to say that my Wulfen should be bounding across the tabletop this weekend
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 ReadingI have a somewhat smug feeling currently having quite comfortably completed my Week 2 goals! All three Imperial Knights chassis/skeletons have been finished as far as I can without the armour plates in place. On top of this I’ve managed to magnetise the rocket pod onto the back of one of the carapaces. I ended […]
Continue ReadingKeeping motivated is probably one of the biggest challenges people face in most walks of life. For somebody like myself (and likely you) who paints and models, it’s very easy to get distracted by a new iOS game (I’m looking at you Freeblade), long running favourite game (Elite Dangerous for me) or other real life […]
Continue ReadingWell the festive season came and went in a blur. Sadly a combination of having to work between Christmas and New Year and various family commitments has meant two “missed” blog Sundays and a reduction in general painting time, but such things happen. In an effort to rectify this I will be doing a mid-week […]
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 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 […]
Continue ReadingI can’t believe it was March when I last wrote a post. You may recall that I was starting a new job and may also have guessed that this has been in some way related to the lack of posts – you’d be correct in that guess 🙂 I’m leaving home before 7am and not getting back until […]
