Sometimes there's other systems and stuff, mainly hobby related. As for my armies, my first love is my yellow-black human army (as seen here) which has … Continue reading Welcome to my blog!
Review: the new Mantic Rabble sprue
Currently, i'm painting up an army of goblins. Once, I vowed never to paint an ugly Mantic goblin anymore, but that was before the new Mantic goblins were released. In this blog post, I'll review these models. The goblins can be built as either rabble, sharpsticks and archers. A regiment box consists of two sets … Continue reading Review: the new Mantic Rabble sprue
December painting
The the winter hollidays over, it's time to see where the last two months of 2022 brought me in terms of painting. I painted up a few additional goblins, still it's a long way to go before the army is finally finished! That said, I did finish quite a few models here and there. First … Continue reading December painting
Hobby updates: goblins are the word!
With the new "red book" in my hards (Clash of Kings 2023 aka Kings of War 3.5) I decided that for 2023, I finally wanted to play my goblins. I started this army in 2018 as an allied detachment to my undead, but the detachment was invalidated before I got to play it. That said, … Continue reading Hobby updates: goblins are the word!
Review: Clash of Kings 2022
So, I went to Clash of Kings 2022. I had a blast, playing many different opponents (of four nationalities, no less) and the athmosphere was great! Look below at the view from our balcony, the huge hall was filled to the brim with gamers! The clash of Kings / Mantic Venue was on the side … Continue reading Review: Clash of Kings 2022
Fleet page – Armada Basileans
Since Armada launched, I painted up my fleet - one ship at a time. Now I recently finished my sky altar and sloop squadrons, the fleet is -for the time being- finished. The fleet consists of two basic sets (I traded my orcs for another set), one abbess ship, a pair of slooq squadrons and … Continue reading Fleet page – Armada Basileans

August hobby update
It's only been two weeks since my last hobby update, so predictable there's little new models painted. I did finish my Goblin horde multibase, which is more than enough for a blog post on its own! Here's them: I love the result. The clear, bright daylight pictures do them justice too! Other projects I also … Continue reading August hobby update
A reaction to Counter Charge 559
Counter Charge ("a podcast to all things Kings of War") is a stapple in my podcast rotation. It's one that I frequently listen while painting, almost like it's been made especially for this! In particular, I like their army reviews. Rob Phaneuf (the show's host) posted show 559 that will spark some discussion, for instance … Continue reading A reaction to Counter Charge 559
2021/22, a good year for my hobby.
About one year ago I restarted my painting tally, keeping track of the amount of minis painted versus those newly bought. Now one year has passed, it's time to see what I did manage to finish. This blog easily shows and it's been a productive year! I have painted a staggering 143 minis this last … Continue reading 2021/22, a good year for my hobby.
