The christmas holidays have been productive from a hobby perspective. There's something end-of-yearish that encourages hobby time. Maybe it's the long, dark, nights, but spending the night underneath a daylight painting lamp is oddly pleasant. First of all, I rebased a horde of foot guard. I wanted to show the unit marching over a roman-type … Continue reading Hobby update – christmas holidays
I painted up a brock, part of a brock rider regiment. One. A singular Brock. He's the guy in the header. And he's painted. By me. While I wait for the world to aplaud this great achivement, let me explain the why: A mate of mine has had his army in boxes for a few … Continue reading Tutorial – painting the Brock
A few months ago (somewhere after Clash '19) I painted up a giant. The story's here: He's been used only a few times and needs to be rebased after KoW3. Since KoW3, the Giant is on a 75x75 base. I understand the giant base size for the Mantic giant, but my reaper bones giant looks … Continue reading Hobby update – rebasing the giant
Recently I discovered (after a query on the KoW forum) that the pictures of my zombie trolls weren't very good. Yesterday I had a moment to spare, so I took a few new pictures. This blog post also aims to tell where the miniature parts came from. Anyhow, there's 3 hordes of the Z-trolls which … Continue reading Showcase – zombie trolls
EDIT: The below models have found a new owner! original post: Recently I replied on the KoW forum that I have models laying around that I am willing to part with. (as so many wargamers, I own many more models than I'd ever paint) In this Blog Post, I'll show which models need a new … Continue reading Cleaning out the closet / models looking for new owner

In the background is the orignal regiment, they combine into a horde, as pictured below. I'm really happy this one is finished.

With all the 3rd edition hype, there's little hobby work done. Most available time is spent reading the actual book, and both life and work are busy this time of year. That said, a few minor things have been completed. Here's my 2nd mincer! The first one (in the background) was completed quite some time … Continue reading Hobby update – goblin mincer
I painted up a pair of Trolls recently. My Goblin detachment (it's not really an army, nor will it be anytime soon) urgently needs some unlockers. The best unlockers in the goblin army (without having to paint 30-ish more gobbos) are trolls. Frankly said, I only painted these because I need unlockers. They are reaper … Continue reading Hobby update – Trollin’ around
We started Gloomhaven recently. (for those who don't know, Gloomhaven doesn't have anything to do with Kings of War, its a cooperative board game with legacy features) I like it a lot. So much that I spent some time painting the character I play, a Savvas Cragheart. see here -> The Gloomhaven models aren't the … Continue reading Gloomhaven Cragheart – hobby update and analysis
During the summer months, only a bit of hobby work has been done. as there's a new editon is looming on the horizon, I don't want to start a new army project. Probably there'll be a lot of inspiration as soon as 3rd edition hits. That said, my goblin detachment is in a sorry state … Continue reading Summer hobby update – Goblin expansion
