Truescale Titans

12 April 2022, 2:44 am

Way back in 1988, Games Workshop released a game called Adeptus Titanicus. It was set in GW’s Warhammer 40,000 setting (which was only a few years old at that point), but rather than being set in the ‘present day’ of the setting, it was set in a ‘historical’ period, during a civil war called the …

Blood Bowl Goblins

7 February 2022, 11:35 pm

Another month, another Blood Bowl team. This time it’s Goblins. Goblins are not a very effective team in Blood Bowl. In fact, according to stats from tournaments and online play, they’re the worst team in the game, and even in the 2016 edition or the CRP, the are firmly in the bottom tier of teams. …

Blood Bowl Orcs

19 January 2022, 4:08 pm

I first posted photos of my Orc Blood Bowl team in April 2008. The team was already a few years old by that point. I think I originally put the team together in around 2003-2004-ish; possibly earlier. At the time I wasn’t very keen on the Orc Blood Bowl models available at the time (oddly …

Blood Bowl Chaos

11 January 2022, 1:46 pm

Back in May, I started painting a Chaos Chosen Blood Bowl team. As with the Skaven, it wasn’t long before I had enough models painted to field a playable team, but after that I slowed down a lot. In particular, I switched to focussing on the Skaven team again, although I also just slowed down …

Blood Bowl Nurgle

31 December 2021, 3:52 am

Two years ago, I had three Blood Bowl teams: Humans, Orcs and Elves. I actually had a fourth (and still do), but I tend not to count the ‘Wicked Elf’ team from Shadowforge Miniatures. The figures are actually fairly nice but a fetish-themed Dark Elf team isn’t really one that I want to be using …

Blood Bowl Skaven

23 November 2021, 3:55 pm

Last year, I painted up a Dwarf Blood Bowl Team in about a month. This year I painted a Slann team. That took me a bit longer: around three months. One thing that delayed things was that before it was finished, I started work on a Skaven team. At first, it seemed like the Skaven …

Blood Bowl Dwarfs

11 May 2021, 12:10 am

So, as I mentioned in my previous post, last summer I painted up a Dwarf Blood Bowl team. I started in late June and finished in late July. But although I took a quick snap of the team to share on Facebook, I didn’t get around to properly photographing them until now. But at last, …

Blood Bowl Slann

8 May 2021, 1:36 am

Well, this is the first post I’ve made in quite a while. The last few months have been a difficult time for me. I’ve been going through some very unpleasant personal upheaval and it isn’t over yet. One of the things that have helped me to get through this time was throwing myself into a …

Epic Marines

9 July 2017, 7:39 pm

Way back in the early-mid 90s, when I first started playing Warhammer 40,000, Space Marines were my first army. Originally my army was from the Ultramarines Chapter, but a few years later when the third edition of the game was released, I changed it to a successor chapter of my own invention: the Stars of …

Imperial Air Wing

1 June 2016, 3:15 pm

As well as the Chaos army, I also finished another — significantly smaller — Epic painting project recently; my Imperial Navy Air Wing. One thing that is conspicuously missing from my Titan Legion is any kind of air support. This is because I wanted to paint my Imperial Aircraft as a separate force. Then not …

What’s all this, then?

This used to be a personal blog where I would post general updates about my life, but now it’s just a hobby blog where I post pictures of the models I’ve painted along with details of any other hobby projects I’ve done.
