Age of the Emperor

After a few games of 40K I have found the new edition understandable, playable and so much less of a grind than it's previous (7 lets be honest) incarnations.  However it still isn't quite nailed on for me and I find Age of Sigmar a better game.

So, with that in mind, I present the following variant to 40K.  Obviously this is just the start and I might have another think about it after a few games but here you go, just click on it for a bigger version:


Happy Christmas all! Emperor bless us, everyone.

Did me some photos

Inspired by Iron Sleet's excellent guide and helped by those most brilliant of people Curis and Tears of Envy I made myself a light box out of card and sticky back plastic and tried to actually get some shots of my models I don't hate.

The set up (I soon moved the lamp away from the edge)

 My first shot. I brightened the shot and fiddeled around with the Cast setting*

Tech Gangers!

Some ne'er do well Marines.
This morning I was thinking over the photos and now I am actually more inspired to get back painting than I ever have before! A success in my eyes.


 Looks it is like White Dwarf and everything! Many thanks to Curis for the background.

*I have no idea what that means.

All quiet in the Underhive

It can be a lonely place down here...bring a friend.

A hectic work life at the moment means my hobby is taking a bit of a kicking but I planned for this and actually, a 3 week gap means I am really keen to get down with the paints and glue as soon as I can. 

 In the meantime here is a shot from a Necromunda game I played earlier in the year, seems to be the season of the Underhive at the moment so thought I should join in!
