Greetings fellow wargamers! Once in a while it’s nice to break stride to embark on a project just for fun. After all the dice rolling and rules lawyering and back and forth, it’s good to remind ourselves at the end of the day that we are playing with little plastic toys and we’re all just […]

Greetings fellow Wargamers! For your amusement this week are some specialty bike bases I painted up using chalkboard paint. If you’re unfamiliar with this stuff, then the gist of it is:  it’s a paint you can apply to any surface to achieve a chalkboard like finish. When dry you can actually use chalk on the […]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. It’s funny how getting your ass kicked can change your mind about things, gaming especially.So a friend of mine and I play a few times a month. He’s a bit of a power gamer, and constantly reminds me that I am not through his ruthless slaughter […]

Greetings fellow wargamers! A few months ago the latest version of the Chaos codex was released and the newly named Helbrute was dropped in our laps.With the relatively low cost of the Dark Vengeance boxed set, the market was flooded with these outstanding new models. You can pick one up from just about every bits […]

Greetings fellow wargamers! Now that the holidays are over we’re finally getting caught up here in the studio. And man do we have some catching up to do.At WMG we’re always pushing our comfort zone on models, trying to come up with startling new conversions that not only inspire us but hopefully inspire our viewers […]

Greetings fellow wargamers! In so far as I know, I am the only person on ebay selling parasites of mortrex right now. Problem is without any competition on the market, buyers don’t have anything to choose from. Competition breeds demand. So what did I do? I had to figure out a way to compete with […]

Glory. The sweet taste of it is enough to drive men to the bitter brink of sanity. To stand over your enemies victorious . . . . heroes are born in such ways.But how much does it really cost to compete? If you going to run with the bulls, you gotta be able to keep […]

Greetings fellow wargamers! Today I have an unusual conversion for you. As some of you may know, WMG has been working on a studio Necron/Chaos allied army for a while.This army is partially based on the Egyptian themed (well, mostly, in fact) but also because I LOVE aspects of both armies! I really like Thousand […]

Greetings fellow wargamers! A few weeks ago I got a hold of a trove of Daemon Prince bits from an ebay seller. They were mostly old pewter bits and about 6 sets of legs!I’m not sure why they had all these, but I wasn’t one to argue a point. There were bits to be had […]

What’s big and mean and green all over? No, this is not a snappy pun, it’s our custom converted Gargantuan Squiggoth of course!!!!We’ve done our fair share of squiggoths over the years, including this insane Rock Band squiggoth for a most appreciative client. Regardless of which we learned one thing . . . people love squiggoths! Squiggoths are always […]

Caleb here from White Metal Games, with a sweet Daemon Prince Fulgrim for you to checkout!A few weeks ago we converted up a Magnus the Red! It was so coveted it sold in less than a day after being posted on ebay! Our conversion engines were so revved at that point, we just had to […]

Caleb from White Metal Games put this conversion guide together for all those Warmasters out there suffering from a lack of equipment courtesy of Games Workshop.A few weeks ago we sold our first commissioned 40k army. It was a 1500 point list and it was a blind bid. By blind bid I mean we boasted we could do any […]

Greetings fellow wargamers! From time to time I am called upon to build the Primarch of a Legion. I’ve done a few incarnations of Fulgrim now, including this one, and this one, and at least one Angron. Admittedly, not every figure is my most popular model. The Angron and larger Fulgrim figures were just too […]
