The new home of all things Grinning Skull!
So I'm here briefly to talk about the Draxxion sculpts I sold on a while ago to Roger at Wargames Supply Dump. I've not had much time for the net lately, trying rather to get back on track with stuff, mostly painting and planning designs and such. Roger kindly sent me some finished castings of… Continue reading Wargames Supply Dump get set to release the Draxxon!
So, back to the grind. With events of late, I've been having a hard time motivating myself to complete various jobs that I'm supposed to be doing, stuff like this tends to lack importance compared to when life deals out shitty hands. Still, time dredges on, stuff needs doing and thus, whether you like it… Continue reading Terrain Workshop: WIP 15mm Industrial Zone

My fave things about miniatures, is the fact there are loads of really weird and wonderful stuff to be found, yeah I like the usual stuff too, but I much prefer the more out there and wacky. In fact, the weirder the better! I thought that I'd highlight a few of the more unusual from… Continue reading Miniature Obscura: Unusual miniature ranges you might not be aware of….
To carry on with my 15mm space orc lot, I thought I'd share my latest addition to them, my squiggoth. It's a repurposed scotia-grendel 28mm warbeast (a Kev adams sculpt I think) that I had knocking around. With an added howdah and a large cannon (plus a few random snotlings as 15mm grots for crew,… Continue reading More 15mm 40k Space orc(y) goodness. Squiggoth WIP
Well, it's been a while in the making, but here is a mostly done terrain set up specially for my Grinning Skull Oggum (oggam) figures. I've been meaning to take some pictures for ages, but haven't got round to it until now. My inside lighting is rather poor, so I try to take advantage of… Continue reading Terrain Workshop: The Oggum settlement (part 1)
I've been trying to fit in some miniature painting over this last week, I admit that it's been ages since I've had time to get some colours on any of my miniatures, so with a bit of inspiration from my lead haul I attained from triples a few weeks ago, I thought it was about… Continue reading A bit of painting does you good!
In times gone by when I was a nipper, I remember the old crappy plastic chewbacca costume I used to own. How I'd run around the place pretending to be the famous wookie co pilot of the millenium falcon, I was nuts about Star Wars. As luck would have it, I'm still a fan today.… Continue reading Fan Vs Fan, Tales of Star Wars fandom and extended universes…
Another great looking KS, is Impudent Mortals newest set of 15mm & 28mm laser cut scenery. As ever I fly the flag for 15mm and have to say these are really nice looking and quite reasonable to boot. There's plenty here for players of both scales, and no doubt loads of applications for the… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Impudent Mortal’s 15mm/28mm Industrial Terrain Kickstarter
There's so much cool stuff for 28mm wargaming these days, it almost makes me want to start the switch back over. The choice and availability for the scale seems to far outstrip the rest that for most, it's classed as god's own scale! Regulars to the site will recognise this latest KS from the… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Tabletop Towns – Cargo Containers Kickstarter
