  • SITREP: Hint Dropping

    Hmm, this blog has been far too quiet this week, maybe I need to drop a hint about that I’m working on… Okay that’s less a hint and more of a preview. But expect a post soon about some of these fine figures from White Dragon Miniatures. It’s actually been a nice change, jumping around…

  • Battle Report: Operation Rubicon– Ultramodern Chain of Command

    Well it’s finally here. After almost 6 months of pondering, mulling over ideas, hunting through forums for tidbits of a hint of shadow, we finally put figures on the table and played a game of Chain of Command in an ultramodern setting, using forces from the ChargeReal setting I’m working on. And oh boy, we…

    Well I finallly did it – I finally a printed the Typhoon MRAP. This is was on of the vehicles on my wishlist when I was looking at the bigger printer, inspired mostly by my trips to Tarkov. But with the real vehicle being 9m long, it was way too big to print on the…

  • SITREP – Big Printings Pt.2

    And there we are – all 5 walls from the Vae Victis advent calendar printed. I still have the damaged wall to repair but I’m very happy with how these giant pieces of resin have turned out. There will be a little bit of clean up before undercoating (mostly clipping off the chunks of raft…

  • SITREP – Winter Churchills

    In preparation for tomorrow’s Big CoC game, I needed to get my Churchill tanks painted up and ready. As my British Infantry are designed for late World War 2 mud snow and horrible times, so must my tanks match the colour scheme. I originally had planned to just do them in green and then add…
