The new home of all things Grinning Skull!
Just want to let you guys know about a cool little facebook comp from Rovanite (From over on the Board of the living lead forum), the very kind chap from Grekwood Miniatures, who's running a lucky sweepstake to win one of the above miniatures (or 3 if you were to win and choose C, the… Continue reading Grekwood Miniatures Facebook Giveaway Comp!!
Darwin Games new KS is now live, and I for one really dig these great looking mini's. Sculpted by industry veteran Bob Olley, they are highly original and fun. Note to self: add some of these figures to my wish list. I did have a look at these before and thought they were fabulous figures,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Dawn: Rise of the Occulites Kickstarter
It seems that modular terrain is the soup of the day at the moment,and that everyone's at having a go at making sets for us to spend their money on. The only problem I can foresee like I mentioned before, was that you need to sell some internal organs on the black market to be… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Mythical Lairs Kickstarter
Absolutely stunning stuff here from Manor House Workshop, 28mm terrain at the top end. I fear that most of us can only dream of a custom set up like this, but one can dream! I'm pretty surprised that they have only raised a bit so far, as a lot of what they are offering is… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Manorhouse Workshop on Indiegogo
Now, I am a real big RISK fan, so when I saw this project, I really want to get in on the action! Not only do they have a wide variety of different themed boards and accompanying card sets, but there are options for custom etched wooden boards. Normally I don't buy download type stuff,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Havoc Risk Boards Kickstarter
Now, somehow I don't think this will ever catch on, but at first look at the graphic for this board game, I did think that for some reason this project was something to do with a biblically themed battle (Given the fact it's called "Surrender", quite a dynamic name for a wargame, don't you think?)… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: SURRENDER the Bible Board Game Kickstarter
Today, although I have a few posts to make, I'm keeping it brief, if you haven't noticed (a bit of flu I'm afraid!) On to another great looking project is the new baby from Sandy Peterson (of Call of Cthulhu RPG fame) this time with a game called Cthulhu Wars, and as you an guess… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Cthulhu Wars Kickstarter
Here's a good one I forgot to mention, aftermath modular terrain. Looks like a nice simple system that is ideal for all manner of modern, pulp and scifi gaming. Although its a 28mm set, I'd like to imagine that they would consider a 15mm or 20mm version in the future. There's lots of potential here,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Aftermath modular terrain Kickstarter
So, the day has come for my very own miniatures range, Grinning Skull Miniatures to be available on general release! It's been a long journey to get them from their humble beginnings to the fully fledged range as they are, and I'm really glad that this project has bore fruit! The excellent team at 15mm.co.uk… Continue reading Grinning Skull Miniatures Released Today!!
What I can say, is that it was a great day, and my thanks to the guys there for making me and my kids very welcome for the duration of our stay! My kids loved it, as did I and I managed to get myself a few choice bits off my shopping list (more about… Continue reading Grinning Skull Reviews: Triples 2013 photos!
