RuneBrush's Painting & Miniature Blog
I 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’ve just had a brilliant gaming weekend up at Warhammer World on their 8×6 tables. One being a Tau fortification and the other set up with city fight terrain. I’d also like to say that the food up in Bugmans Bar is amazing! Going up Friday with my brother before anyone else meant we could […]
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 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 […]
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 […]
Continue ReadingBeen a little bit since I’ve posted because I’ve been struggling to get anything approaching a half decent photo because it always seems to be dark. Thankfully the mornings are getting light enough that I can take a few snaps before I go to work. I’m changing jobs the end of the month which is […]
Continue ReadingWell although I didn’t get onto anything much early on this evening, I’ve just finished a quite productive session with the airbrush. Below is a (rather crap) photo. Everything has received a coat of The Fang, the minis that haven’t been shaded have then been shaded. Most of the tank has been sprayed but one […]
Continue ReadingWell the weather outside is awful today, despite yesterday being quite pleasant (though quite cold). Although I’ve been putting it off, I’ve now started the fur pelts and decorations on my Blood Claws. I’ve never enjoyed doing these as I’ve not really found a way that I like of painting them, however it’s a necessity […]
Continue ReadingDespite the lack of posts, I have been painting recently. I currently have a conga line of miniatures in various states of being painted. Annoyingly I’ve one Grey Hunter that I need to finish airbrushing, which is why there are only 8 of them!
Continue ReadingAlthough I still have my drop pod to glue together, on Wednesday my other half wanted some company whilst she did some bits on the PC so I did a bit of airbrushing. I have now managed to base colour another block of Space Wolves, including the remaining 7 Blood Claws of the large pack […]
Continue ReadingNot sure what happened but everything seems to have “come together” over the weekend. I’ve done all of the edge highlighting (and pushed that further than I normally would) and got a coat of varnish on everything. I spent a bit of time yesterday evening gently scraping the two pieces where the fins slot in […]
Continue ReadingWell the drop pod is almost at the point where I can begin to assemble it. All of the blue has been airbrushed and just needs some edge highlighting with a brush. The fins has have their red tips airbrushed and again just need a edge highlight. Once the edge highlight has been done I […]
Continue ReadingAfter changing my weekend around so that I had a bit more painting time today, I’ve ended up spending that time masking off the fins on the drop pod… The doors aren’t all masked yet either. However, here is a wip shot
