Greetings cattle thieves and vagabonds! Welcome back to another article covering the muster of my Scots warband for SAGA. In the previous part I covered the bulk of my army, namely the Kern and Irish runaways, seeking fame and fortune within the ranks of a Galloglass raiding force. In this article I will show you my first unit of painted Galloglass, as well as talking about the material culture of the Scottish mercenaries roaming the countryside of Ireland and the Hebrides.

Greetings and welcome back to the Den of Procrastination! Some years ago I set out on a journey to paint and collect a new SAGA army of Scots. I even blogged about the plausability of a high medieval Scottish army of rebels in this post but failed to summon enough Mojo to carry through. At least in the sense of completing the army within reasonable time. Fast forward a couple of months and there’s still no army to be seen – but I HAVE been stroking along on a miniature-by-miniature basis. In this post I’m going to revisit the Scots project and showcase some progress of my redshank troublemakers.

Good evening wargaming narcos and welcome back to another post from the metal mini connoisseur! Last year I backed one of the most exciting Kickstarters I have ever seen in the world of miniatures, namely the Baron’s War by Andy Hobdday and master sculptor Paul Hicks. In this post I’ll show you some of the figures from the range, as well as sharing my thoughts on the range and what’s to come. So stay a while and listen…

Greetings plastic perverts and welcome back to a new year here on the blog! As some of you know I’m an avid collector of unique and beautiful terrain pieces. I have several of the famous Tabletop World fantasy buildings, and have kept an eye on this Watch Tower from Cerberus Studios for a long time. During last year’s Black Friday I finally hit the big red purchase button! In this post I’ll show you some close up shots of my latest piece of resin terrain.

Welcome back traveller! Things have been stirring in the plastic barrows for some time. Miniatures from a forgotten age have been restless for too long, but with the release of Age of Magic new gaming adventures have started to unfold. After a good amount of playtesting it was finally time to blow the horns of battle and rally the dwellers for a good ol’ showdown in the dungeon! In this article I will recount some of the experiences from organizing my very first AoM event, as well as sharing some pictures of cool fantasy models.

Good evening reader and welcome back! The nordic autumn is upon us, but there’s no excuse to lay down neither brush nor dice.

So buckle up, check guns ‘n ammo, and get your Fritz on!

Welcome back rogue painters and resin haulers! The past weeks have been busy for me as the prep work for the Lords of War 40k tournament intensified once my summer vacation kicked in. Last weekend saw the fifth installment in the event series, where we invited twenty players to kick each others asses, drink beer, and move their grown-up-dolls around our beautiful gaming tables. In this article I’ll share som post-event thoughts, as well as some of the pictures I took during the weekend.

Greetings tabletop dwellers and welcome back to the oasis of wargaming inspiration. Historical gaming seem to be on the rise again in my gaming cult, and I fielded my German Afrika Korps for two games of Bolt Action (of which one was a demo) last week. Me and Herman have been growing and painting up our desert forces and are currently turning up the notch to reach 1000pt armies – parallell to this I have been working on some terrain on my free time. In this article I will guide you through the process of making a desert themed orchard that will suit most historical contexts set around the mediterranean sea.

Greetings pilgrims, and welcome back to another SAGA article! Over the past weeks I have delved deeply into SAGA 2nd edition in order to practice for an upcoming tournament. Transitioning my Crusader army from the old edition meant I had to paint up some additional miniatures, and in order to get used to the new battleboard I played around 10 games – mostly against the Islamic armies, vikings of different flavour, and the Greco-Roman chads of the Byzantine Empire. In this article I’ll share my thoughts on the Crusader army after snagging a first place with three straight wins at a small tournament held at the local club here in Malmö, Sweden.

Hello again and welcome back reader! Here’s a little treat for your lunch break. While browsing for inspiration I found out that there was a complete lack of good reviews and close-ups of this kit, so I decided to make my own. Unfortunately I managed to cover up my mic while recording – which means that the voice over volume is quite low for the most part of the video. At least you can enjoy watching the speed build from sprue to the finished model!
