Malifaux


A couple pieces for Malifaux. I don't currently offer it - I like to get into a game, do a few test pieces and learn the fluff before I do commissions for a new game.

New Terrain



I took some pictures of some new terrain for the locals, and thought I would share here as well. I will likely post a video soon as well as it's hard to get a good feel for it in these photos.

Tomb Kings style terrain. I will be posting on these again as I was very impressed with them. In the mean time you can find them on ebay and they are well worth the price.

Some new hills.


Ruins of Osgiliath and a swamp. The ruins are a very good deal for the price and its a very sturdy and hefty kit.


Chaos warshrine
Shrine of Slaanesh
Some houses, a mixture of prepainted and resin kits I painted
Another shrine, this one prebuilt and painted.

More coming soon!

Warhammer Collector's Edition

It has it's own box!

Today the FLGS owner had a big surprise for me - the Collector's Edition Warhammer Fantasy rulebook. I was surprised by the packaging, a special cardboard box, but upon inspection of the book I could see why.

It's hefty and almost 3" thick. It is thicker than the standard rulebook due to the thicker rag style paper. I am a sucker for old fashioned books. I own probably a dozen of those boxes designed to look like old books, with the faux leather. So I was very excited when I popped it open. It also fits my game room decor very well.

The clasp doesn't hinge like I thought it did, but that's probably a good thing considering the weight of the book. Its a snug fitting piece of metal that, thanks to a bit of give in the leather cover, holds very snugly.

The spine is embossed in gold.


Just about the most insignificant number possible :) Oh well. It is very cool that they are numbered.

Three tassels for marking pages will come in handy, and the pages are GORGEOUS. The matte finish of the rag paper makes the color of the artwork very rich and antique looking.


Obligatory John Blanche.

Overall I am very happy with my purchase and I went into it with little knowledge other than "it's old fashioned looking." I would no doubt order it again given the chance. $125 is hefty for a book, however I think it is worth the $50 over the regular book. Considering the high class art direction and the quality of the design and materials, I feel it is a good deal. It's almost 3" thick after all!

I look forward to reading the fluff, which is a hefty portion of the book.

(7/5/10) Retribution


Hey everybody!

Well the death throes of the monster called "MOVING" stacked with some family 4th stuff has caused this update to be unprecedentedly late, but as they say better late than never among other corny cliches like you can't rush perfection, etc.

A BIG thank you to everyone who helped with the charity army. The army sold for a tidy $1500 which will go directly to the family and they are very excited and happy and want to extend a thank you to everyone who took part. (And he did here on the blog) They should hopefully be able to rest a little easier for a bit.

See you next (this?) week!

Drivin' Down the Block


Like what else should a brother do
It's Saturday it's Saturday

The heat might smother you


A new meaning to the phrase "delicious Imperial armor."

No update today, it will be tomorrow. I ended up hosting for the first time in the new house, cooking out and starting earlier than we normally do, so it ended up taking the entire day. Had to get a lot of little things you dont think about at first like extra chairs and whatnot.

So back to work on the Retribution today, planning to finish up the last few steps and then photography in the morning. See you then!
