Some time ago, you may recall (If your a regular reader that is...) that I showed you a 15mm sci-fi building terrain piece entitled "The Black Dog Salvage company" which I made for games of the free wargame, Salvage Crew. Due to lack of space, I am reluctantly having to let it go. Sure I've… Continue reading For sale: 15mm Black Dog Salvage Co. model terrain up for auction!

Time for another heads up over on KS, with these lovely laser cut Necromunda-esque scenics from T.J.H models. Very nice it is indeed, although a bit pricey for me, and obviously the wrong size (ahem...15mm anyone?!:)) But regardless, it's a very cool looking set that would be ideal for loads of different sci-fi games. There's… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: 28mm Laser Cut 3D Terrain, T.J.H Models Kickstarter
I recently managed to get hold of a bundle of vintage "Starblazer" comics to help inspire me with a bit of retro sci-fi for my projects. I did bag them at a pretty good price, considering that I see them about individually for up to £3 a piece, 15 for just over a fiver is… Continue reading Ooooow, you cheeky Starblazer you!
A while ago a few of us were working on a campaign system and universe for 15mm gamers to inhabit and allow cross overs from the different scifi 15mm manufacturers miniatures with other games and rulesets, and so forth. The project stalled, probably due to the amount of work it would have taken over time… Continue reading It’s time to open the Book of the Draxxion!
Having pushed myself to find some painting time in the last few days, I managed to get some 10mm Sci-fi minotaurs done for entry to the Pendraken painting comp. Although these are for use in 10mm, they scale perfectly to 15mm as bovine beastmen types in my scifi games. I can recommend these little fellers… Continue reading 10mm Pendraken Sci-fi Minotaurs
[TMP] CP Models Release 28mm Sci-Fi Avians. If anyone missed this release news of CP models new 28mm avians, I thought I'd just point them out in case they went under the radar. I really like these weird looking monsters, shame they are 28mm and not 15mm (If anyone from CP are reading, get some… Continue reading CP Models Release 28mm Sci-Fi Avians
So you may recall me going on about a sculpt that I did last year being cast up. I thought that I would show you a first paint up of my new figure. Its a Criat Mercenary in 15/18mm scale for sci fi battle games. As you can see from my scheme, I chose a… Continue reading First Look: Finished 15mm Criat Alien Mercenary miniature
So, off my workbench I have another bunch of new sculpts of 15mm sci-fi goodness, the latest Oggam and a few other odds and sods. First up the Ogs, the latest in the League of Anthracks troops, an Oggam Storm trooper, which I would love a few units of these alone, painted with star wars… Continue reading More 15mm sculpts for your perusal….
So, since my kids broke the mobile internet dongle yesterday, I used my time wisely to get some more Oggam made up. this time I made a couple of league Of Anthracks troops as well, to see how they go. I really like them, so far, there will be a full set of them done… Continue reading New League of Anthracks 15mm Oggam Greens, plus engineer and trooper
