A matter of balance and an idea.

Lately it seems , my every minute is accounted for. Between home renos, starting a family and gaming, my world is busy, busy and busy. Does this mean I should stop one or the other? No. I just have to slow them down untill I can catch up or find my balance.

Warzone Resurrection - Imperial Starter




The old
Back in the 90’s an excellent artist named Paul Bonner left 40k and moved to a new  game called Mutant Chronicles. Paul Bonners exodus peaked my curiosity. Following the success of the RPG a table top game called Warzone was released and I played it for a time. Warzone lasted for a few years before disappearing. So to my surprise and delight a kickstarter was created and very successfully followed through on. I've had a poor experience with kickstarter, but in my hand is proof that it can work.

-][- Inquisition HQs -][- Part 1


Inquisitors Karamazov and Coteaz


Once again games workshop gets it 80% correct. It just seems to me, they start out with a great idea and then some execs kid says "put a giant eagle on this arm that would look cool!" Well today we will be fixing a few inquisitors.

Ork Trukk - Rat Rod conversion part 1



I have never liked the newer(don't forget I started in the rogue trader days) Ork trukk model. To me it looks too awkward. what I mean by that is all Orky vehicles look awkward but they still have a flow or design that screams I belong to this army. The Ork trukk model never spoke to me. Then one day while googling Ork conversions I saw a beautiful low-rider chopped and rat rod masterpiece.

Ork Land Train Project



Hello friends,
It has been just over a year since my last post. A lot of thing have happened since then. I married the love of my life, gained two fur babies(dogs) and moved into a new place with very little room for building models. That said, its such an exciting time for the hobby I just had to come back.

I really like the new Ork codex and I am looking forward to building some plastic MegaNobz. the formations look like they would actually be beneficial for once.

I hear dat train a coming,,,,


Beginning this week I will be starting my series on making an Orky land train( this will consist of a bunch of converted Ork Battle wagons). This is a project I've had in mind for some time now but have been to busy to undertake. Well, ...its time.

On the other side of the coin we have the fiasco that is Robotech rpg tactics.  the whole situation had lost Palladium many of its supporters. About 30% of the backers are so pissed they are just going to dump the product on eBay to get their money back. Seriously I've never seen any project handled so badly. but I digress, this subject is an article all on its own.

Hope you've had fun and looking forward to seeing you in the 4x8 arena.
