Painting Tips: Simple Plasma Effects
Painting the glow on a plasma weapon is a real challenge for me. This video shows a simple and fast technique that should yield good results. We’ll see how it goes…
Some Orky Fortress Inspiration
Rumlar is on the way back. After a very long hiatus from gaming, the GM and the Gaffer are back at it and Fiscal Year 2022 (for you adminstratum types) will be bigger and better than eva’ to make up for lost time. We’ve got a number of […]
Turning characters into miniatures
TheGM: Over the past year, I’ve created two characters inspired by the comments and input of two followers of this humble narrative campaign: • Lecia Athena (alias “Ath”)—A freedom fighter (or traitor if you’re Imperial authorities) who is working with the Tau to overturn Imperial rule on the […]
New mutant units for Morkai
TheGM: This summer, I added a lot more combat units to the Imperial and mutant armies that are fighting on the desert world of Morkai. In fact, I’ve more than doubled the point size of each army. I thought I’d share some of my work on the mutants, […]
The Great 40k Terrain Challenge #9: Shuttle
Quite often we’ll have some terrain sitting off board just to look nice and a large Thunderhawk would be nice to have on the table for eye candy. (Especially if there is one available and is sitting in a box somewhere.) With the Orky Air armada growing, one […]
Admin Project 1: Organizing the Tool and Supplies Drawers
Things have gotten out of control in my workroom. Taking a class at night, along with the end-of-fiscal-year madness took a toll and pretty much kept me away from the hobby most of the summer through mid-October. We try to work on several projects at a time in […]
The Great 40k Terrain Challenge 10: Platforms
TheGaffer has been off-line for quite a while working, drum majoring, working, bagpiping, and working. It’s been quite a long time since we’ve had an opportunity to play regularly, build terrain, or post to our blog. Freshly returned from Historicon, we’re jumping back in. Also, stepping down as […]
Shorehammer Report: A terrain cargo box
Although I haven’t written much about my preparations for the Shorehammer Convention later this year, I’ve been pretty busy building terrain, painting figures and—tah dah!—a new cargo box to make transporting my convention games a tad easier. It’s called my Shorehammer Cargo Crate. Some time ago, I reported […]
Building a mutant army vehicle is fun conversion
I’ve been slowly creating a mutant army as part of the narrative story of the desert world of Morkai. Already, there have been a few military clashes between the mutants and Imperial authorities, and I’m thinking of expanding Morkai’s troubles with a full-scale civil war. As part of […]
The Great 40k Terrain Challenge 7: Numinous Occulum
The GM had built up quite a few gothic style ruins by way of GW and Pegasus kits. I’d like a different look for my table, so decided to go with the Age of Sigmar and Lord of the Rings kits to get started. Before we got too […]
