Alternative armies has a great little selection of character models that I havne’t done justice.  In addition to a nice fat demon lord, I’ve added a NotMing The Merciless and totally not Dejah Thoris to my collection. They also have a fun little collection of elementals.  The air elemental...

The boys in yellow and white are back, and this time they’ve got a few upgrades.  These bannermen come to us by way of Ral Partha Europe, and the wonderful Demonworld line of miniatures.  Their imperial forces can be a bit fantasy cartoonish, but if you know where to...

I don’t often do posts showing the before, during, and after. These three figures took so little time, but I had the attention span and the memory to do so.  You you might want to paint yourself up some of these figures from the Demonworld lineup, available from Ral...

We are going to have so much fun with these little Splintered Light vermin.  The whole pack of them took just under a month to paint up – the glories of 15mm! The yellow primer worked well in the end. The skin tone of these figures has a dim...

  Taking the advice of Vince, from over on the YouTubes, I primed these rat dudes in a rich yellow.  Normally, I go with the black/gray/white spectrum, particularly these days when contrast paints do half the work for you.  But I knew these little rat dudes would be draped...

Army building. We meet again, old frenemy. As a reminder, we are talking about the popular collection of rules known as One Page Rules. In my particular case, the fantasy regiment game called, appropriately enough, Regiments. Let’s take a look and what you need to get started, and I’m just talking about...

It’s been a while since I’ve thrown a game of rank-and-flank fantasy down on the table.  Dragon Rampant is more of a large warband skirmish game, and it lacks the nuance and subtlety of proper blocks of troops maneuvering about the green fields of battle.  Demonstrating the charms of Chainmail...

The last time we looked at Dragon Rampant, we looked at how NOT to use Light Riders. Specifically, we learned that their speed was negated by heavily terrain laden tables. Today we check the null hypothesis, and throw them against the same foes, but this time with no mission...

Splintered Light is such a good miniature wargame company.  Clean scuplts with just the right amount of detail, tons of character, and so many options.  Today I’m bragging about my Dark Elf army for Dragon Rampant. Some time ago, I ordered the guys on the left.  Only painted six...

Dragon rampant has a great little selection of units, all of which are based on how you use them on the battlefield. After seeing how effective Light Riders could be in the Fate of Stormbringer (poor Dubzaron), I wanted to see what a force heavy on the light cavalry...
