WIP: Falchion and Stormtalons

Just a few snaps of what I am working on ready for Saturday and AOP.  Getting there...but not much time left and it still feels as though there is a lot to do!





It's looking good but the oil wash takes an age as does the chipping....times-a-ticking!


Heat effect and OSL on the top cover worked well - nailing that process now.





Interiors done on these 2 as well.  I only need one for my AOP board but would love to have them both finished by Saturday.  We shall see... HTB.

    Love the heat staining on the muzzles on that tank! Can you do a tutorial? Always love to see someone take the time to do cockpit interiors on the flyers rather than making the canopy opaque.

Tale of One Gamer: Pure Primaris update

My Primaris Army is taking shape and whilst incomplete, it has been tested in two tournaments – GW’s Heat 2 and the Derby based Blood and Glory back in 2017.   Whilst Primaris are good, there are some significant gaps in capability.   I am really enjoying the new models, the building and the painting.   I am pleased to say certain elements perform really well.   In this article I hope to showcase some progress made in part-one, and some of the sneaking ahead I had to do to make competitive lists function.

House Cadmus Imperial Knights

This post has been sat in my archive for far too long. I am not going to pretend it is new work - it has been up on my Instagram for some time but I thought I would show you some WIP photos and talk through some tips on making what is a very large project manageable. Hopefully of use to someone out there! Three Kinghts is a decent amount of work - but to be fair, you pretty much have an army once you are done.  To keep me motivated and to make the project achievable I broke it down into stages: 1. The Metal Skeletons 2. Panel Work 3. Bases 4. Weaponry. This approach will save you time and will help you get 3 Knights above table top quality quickly and efficiently. It won't feel like it as you go - but trust me when you reflect, you will have saved yourself some serious time.  There is also a uniformity you can't replicate from doing 1 then adding 2 later on... Take the pain and work in multiples....read on... 1. The Metal Skeletons: Army Painter Silver Rattle C...

Space Marine Redemptor Dreadnought Points Analysis

I have promised Rob ( Spikey Bits ) at least twice now I would return to blogging but have failed miserably until now! I am on holiday and getting my ideas together to partake in my own White Dwarf "Tale of Four (one!) Gamers" style hobby challenge to get a Primaris force table top ASAP. There seems to be a gap in the market (soon to be filled by the hobby blogs and Podcasts, not least the Long War and Forge the Narrative ) so having done my own research to shape my army list, I thought I would share build ideas and the points rationale behind it. Here goes... Initial thoughts It is good - not broken, not excellent but good. Toughness 7 is a slight issue given everyone trying to focus on being able to deal with this value. Maybe 8 would have been nice. A 2+ would be too much, but T8...hmm.... we will see. I think it is good anyway.  One concern (demonstrated in the Table Top Tactics video) is the degrading effect and impact on shooting once it goes to half health.  He ...
