I thought I'd point out this quite novel set of stencils from over on Kickstarter, the TT Combat snappy airbrush stencils. An airbrush is something I've been lacking for a while now, with the old one given up the ghost a long time ago, but I haven't got round to getting a replacement, but with… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: TTCombat Snappy Stencils Kickstarter
Rather than you hear me waffle on, I thought I'd lift this straight from Leon's post from the Pendraken Forum: https://www.change.org/en-GB/petitions/royal-mail-lift-the-restrictions-on-shipping-water-based-paints What is this? Due to recent changes in their shipping restrictions, Royal Mail will no longer ship more than 4 pots of water-based paint per package, with each pot having a maximum volume of… Continue reading Pendraken’s Post our paint campaign on change.org
So, I lead you to my last entry in Zomtober, rather than the usual hordes of dead things, I thought I'd make a little change and shake things up a bit by painting up some survivors instead.

Ok, Ok, so I am quite a tad late with this weeks zomtober entry.

Never the less, I did… Continue reading Zomtober: Week #3. Better late than never….
Hello there everyone, well this weeks Zomtober painting entry is a little late by a day, but here they are. Yesterday was pretty busy, so I wasn't able to get anything done or posted, so sorry my bad!

So, I'm taking part in the Zomtober festivities (see more details on Zomtober here and here) In which all participants must paint up at least one survivor or zombie figure per week during the month. Whilst I think most of us taking part will be 28mm zombie gamers, for myself at least in our house, the apocolypse… Continue reading Zomtober 2013: Grinning Skull gets ready to share in Zomtober madness!

I just wanted to show you my warbands being prepared for some WAR PIGS playtesting, I still… Continue reading Grinning Skull Miniatures: My growing Oggam warhosts…
Following on from the last post, in this part, I'm going to show you how to create a really easy, companion set of ruins using a few waste materials that one might have on hand. From this: To this: Lets get started. The foundation of this model is balsa wood, taken from a horse wooden… Continue reading Terrain Workshop: Ruined Houses (part 2)
So I thought I'd share some stuff what I've been up to for my 15mm gaming, if you've read my other articles previous, then you'll know I have plans for a totally ruined board for post apoc, zombie, and modern gaming purposes, and since I was in scratch building mood I'll try and talk you… Continue reading Terrain Workshop: Ruined houses (part 1)
