Last week I finished painting all those knights, so this week I started building the actual multibase. The general idea is to build a bridge over a river which the knights are crossing. In that way, I can also justify using them as redemption knights in Order of the Green lady, hence the water theme! … Continue reading MonsterMarch # 3 building the base
This blog post is a sister post to this one, where I discuss why I like the Abbess over the Elohi battleship. In this post I'll show how I did convert my 4th Elohi ship into a 3rd Gur Panther. Both ships are already quite similar, as both are medium sized and have the same … Continue reading Armada – converting an Elohi into a Gur
Last week, I posted about my pledge for MonsterMarch 22: a horde of knights. While a few of these knights were painted already, exactly half of them were not. Swordmaster (the gracious host of this challenge) posted that the full model count for a horde of knights would be be 32. That might be a … Continue reading MonsterMarch #2 – speedpaint those knights!
Last few years, I joined Swordmaster's MonsterMarch. You can find my contributions elsewhere on this site. I painted up a vampire on undead dragon, phoenix and goreblight respectively. Yearly disclaimer This year, like all years before, time is tight again, as I just started a new job and have to commute more again. Still, that … Continue reading MonsterMarch again
Playing Kings of War Armada is a boyhood dream. I love the age of sail and always wanted to try out a Black seas battle, but have never been able to find an opponent. Since Kings of War Armada uses the same ruleset, boarding this game is a no-brainer to me. On this blog, I … Continue reading Armada – Elohi vs Abbess
Almost a month ago, I posted my current projects - a regiment of knights. By now, these are finished: Other pictures at the end of this blog post. I really dig the yellow on steel-with blue ink, a distinctly different colour scheme which does tie in with my army by use of the yellow. As … Continue reading January hobby update – knights
Before I played the tournament in December, I had to finish the Monarch. With about 2 days to spare, I finished her. Just after the tournament, I stopped painting for a few weeks to focus on other stuff. Now the dust has settled, I restarted some old projects and started a few new bits and … Continue reading Hobby update – bits and pieces and pasticard vanguard terrain
Recently, I participated in a tournament. I loved the people, the ambiance and the games I played. The sight of fully painted armies on the tabletop is always great and the people were great sports! Thanks for the organisers for hosting this! here's my army facing off against my first opponent, E. Fielding a nicely … Continue reading My tournament list and why I stopped playing it
As posted last time, I wanted (no: needed) a model for the monarch, the new Kingdoms of Men titan for Kings of War. She's been finished a week now: I love the print, the model and the paint job, so I'm pretty content with the results. Here's the queen herself in close-up. The model is … Continue reading Hobby – all hail the queen
First things first. I finished the mawpup launcher I started painting last week. Here's the result: I love the little model. It's gorgeous and the raft-on-the-water does it justice. It's a lovely addition to my goblin army. But enough goblins for now. Queen Mismeria Recently, I finished a Lost Kingdoms swamp queen. In that blog … Continue reading Hobby hype – Launcher & Queen
