Well it’s Halloween so I wanted to show off this spooky crazy Steam Punk Transport. YepImadork made this to carry around Ramos and his crew for games of Malifaux, and it’s a pretty sweet conversion! Jump below for a closer look. The conversion itself is pretty basic, but it’s just done and themed very well, […]

As I write this parts are drying to feverishly made repairs to my Stormtrooper armor. You see I was a big dummy, and left the armor in the store window for the summer, and well it took some direct hits from UV. Apparently its pretty hard to get out UV damage from molded PVC plastic, so […]

My buddy Beef (hold the cheddar) stopped by the other day with a new WIP, a Ravenguard Dakka Dreadnought. He converted this puppy up good, with a bunch of solid true scale aspects, heck you can’t even tell those are sentinel legs till you see it from behind. The model kinda almost reminds me of […]

A little while ago I did a tutorial on my Pre-Heresy Iron Fists Army, but I left one model out- my Librarian. Today we’re going to take a look how I made him, and how you can make your own (as there is no model for the Power Armor Librarian right now- sad pandas) Back in the […]

The other day I was cutting up some bits, and a sweet conversion idea hit me outta the blue. Come see the custode conversion that appeared out of thin air.

Here is another custom FRAG! conversion from YepImadork. This guy’s definitely got some character, eh?  I for one have no idea how he opens doors, unless he just saws them in half, lol.  Jump below the fold for all the details. So for those of you not familiar with it there is an old board game out […]

Well Jkin has been at it again. He’s taking a small break from his Thousand Sons army and working on something new. Now instead of making some Astartes look noble,  he’s afflicting a their vehicles with Nurgle’s Rot. I’m sold, because boy does it look good so far! He’s gone to town on this thing, […]

My buddies YepImadork and Seppuku made the shop a pretty sweet terrain table a few months ago. They packed in a ton of detail into the board that really puts it over the top both in terms of play-ability and appearance IMHO. Here’s a brief summary how they made the board.  To start, they used 1/8″ thick plastic […]

Hey guys welcome back. Today I’m going to go over step by step how I painted up my Chaos Space Marine Death Guard models for an upcoming Apocalypse Game.It was really simple and took about 4-5 hours total for each squad of ten, which I thought for the end result was great.  Keep in mind […]

So I cornered Jkin the other day, to get pics of his Pre-Heresy styled Ahriman for his Scarab Occult army, and boy does it rock. Check out this bad boy below! To kick off this project he started with a just normal Grey Knight Terminator (for statue he’s still “in power armor”), and just went […]

Welcome to Armies on Parade, where I display (in hopefully good detail) some great looking armies from major tournaments all across the United States. If you click on the Armies on Parade label you’ll be able to scroll through some great looking armies, all at once. It’s like you were at a major event yourself, all from […]

Mechanized Imperial Guard has been a strong build pretty much since it’s release. I started running it shortly thereafter with my Looted Guard, and did very well with the army over the past few years (most recently going 6-1 and winning the American Team Championships). In this  new competitive era of win/ loss and Primary Secondary Tertiary objectives at tournaments, I’ve had […]

Welcome to a guest post by TerranRaida. I asked him to do a review on the new Liquid Green Stuff, and he begrudgingly obliged me. You can catch up with this Master of the English Language over on his blog C.R.E.A.M (Change Rules Everything Around Me).Two days ago, bloodshot eyes at 2AM listening to Dr. Know and debating about what video to […]

Way back in the day before Pre-Heresy was “cool”, I attempted an ambitious project: a Pre-Heresy Iron Fists Army. Unfortunately for me, my painting skills weren’t quite up to the task and I couldn’t quite pull off painting yellow then. But I certainly had fun converting the army, and that’s all that counts. Eventually I went back and started painting them green for […]

This was my old Daemon army I recently sold on eBay. I never really 100% finished it, and just kinda lost interest in them I guess.  Hopefully their new home treats them better than keeping them boxed up all the time. Sometimes a project just falls to the waist side.  I think next time I do Daemons […]

So last time we talked a little about the current Grey Knights Meta.  Now lets take a look at some anti Grey Knights tactics, and see how I’ve defeated them using Blood Angels. For a lot of players Blood Angels may not even be a consideration in this current world of Space Wolves, Imperial Guard, and Grey Knights, oh […]

It seems everywhere you go these days it’s Grey Knights all the time. Why? Well lets face it, they have a very broad appeal and in the local environment they seem to be easy to win with. Casual players may not have adapted to their tricks and tactics yet, and the GK’s can win just on their […]

Welcome to another great work in progress post on Jkin’s Pre-Heresy Style Thousand Sons. He’s really putting a lot of work into these guys, and it definitely shows. It’s nice every once in awhile to see a hobbyist doing something for the love of the hobby, rather than what plays well- or is considered the […]
