I think it looks terrific and I hope you will as well.I noticed him working on this a few weeks ago while painting […]

Just recently I discovered that a great looking cosplay suit of power armor that I had seen all over the internet (and featured on here) was actually located only a few counties over here in Virginia!

I haven’t seen a revolution in miniatures painting like this since the early 2000’s when Vallejo came along an made us all realize that there were better paints out there than just Citadel.

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 […]
