  • On The Work Bench 26/05/2016

  • On The Work Bench 09/05/2016

    Not much progress as last week was a bit mental but I did manage to paint up two of the US Army figures which will form the EOD team. The guy in the bombsuit is great but I was more interested in getting the test models painted in UCP. My previous attempt on some of…

  • On the Work Bench 01/05/2016

    So stealing from several popular blogs, I’m going to a weekly post saying whats on my painting table this week as well as any models that have turned up. I don’t plan to buy a huge amount until the painting is done though – the army case is pretty full already. Newly Arrived: Spectre’s Agents…

  • Lead Mountain Update 19

    Sadly, I must call defeat on this challenge. based on the past few weeks I will not have enough time to finish all my models. Its a pain but things happen. Fear not though, I’ll keep writing these posts as I paint models As you might have guessed, nothing much got painted this week. Painted,…

  • Lead Mountain Update 18

    I managed to get a little bit more painted this week – starting on the operators and putting the final touches to the hard suits. I’m not too fussed about adding the wires for the machine guns but I probably will do down the line. Overall, fun kits to make and will be great fun…

  • Spectre Miniatures: First Games and Rules Thoughts

    So after months of me painting models I finally managed to find some guys to go up against using the Spectre rules. Thanks to their speed, I managed to play two games pretty quickly. If you want to go straight to my thoughts on the rules, head down and look for the big “The Rules”…

  • Kickstarter Review – Spectre Miniatures

    Welp, the long-awaited Spectre Miniatures Kickstarter models just turned up today. Before I begin, its important to point out that the guys in Nottingham managed to almost nail the delivery date – the models turned up just under a month later than planned which works out among the better delivery differences than many of the other Kickstarters I’ve…

  • Hasslefree Miniatures – Modern Troopers

    (Apologies for the photos) Back when I was a kid, I used to makes tons of models. Airfix commandos and tanks gave way to Lord of the Rings which for a while traded places with full-blown Warhammer 40k. Tiny soldiers I get to make myself? Sold. More recently, I’ve been flitting around – Flames of…
