Jutting from a cliff carved with skulls and decorated with arcane symbols, Skullvane Manse is a forbidding edifice at the best of times. When the stars are in a certain alignment, and the Winds of Magic blow strong, however, the tower attracts eldritch power that discharges around the battlefield.…

So I’ve been going down to my local Games Workshop for a couple of hours every other week, and the result is a near complete set of Realm of Battle Boards! These battle boards are now fully painted and just in need of some snow and ice! They were pretty fun to paint and not too difficult. The more…

So I thought I'd post a quick update as I have loads planned and have bought some really cool bits. Unfortunately between the time I have to paint, and the time it takes me to paint, all these projects will have to be kept for waaaay in the future as I really want to complete my Grey Knight army…

Here is my finished Stormraven. It's been near completion for a while, but I had some problems when after fully assembling and painting it, I decided I wanted to magnetise the wings. Basically, I realised that with the wings attached it is extremely difficult to transport. I assembled it years ago…

My local Games Workshop recently started running a Battle of the Brush painting competition, and I just had to enter. I picked up a Mangler Squigs box being something completely different to my Grey Knight and Space Wolf army which I am used to painting. The model is great and fits in with my Night…
