What an absolute nightmare of a miniature. I love it! It literally look like something that stepped out of a crazy necromancer’s head, or subconsciousness, and grew organically by its own will. I tried to use the enamel painting techniques that I have been experimenting with…. It turned out fine, but I think I could […]
I bought these dwarves from a kickstarter campaign. I swear I bought three but I think one has gotten lost in all the moving we have done recently :/ Nevertheless, super happy about these two. These minis are so full of character and I am happy with the paint job.
I’ve been wanting to paint a Big Boris from Heresy for ages, but I tend to only buy and paint what I need. However, the Fallen Boris was simply too cool to not pick up, so I did (pick it up). This was a case of “paint and discover” where my idea of how he […]
DM Note, I was so caught up in this game that I didn’t realise we just concluded the two major storyline of our campaign. It wasn’t until Sean, the player playing Alyanys the Warlock pointed it out that I realised that it had happened. Having “acquired” a rope of fairyhair capable of holding anything, […]
When I first saw this Genestealer Magus, I thought she would be a fantastic character for Dungeons & Dragons. But between me buying the miniature and painting her, I learned about Grim Dark and I decided to paint her Grim Dark style. While the result is not perfect, I really do like the look of […]
I first started seeing miniatures painted in the Grim Dark fashion last year and via the help of the Internet, I found a tutorial on how to use Enamel washes, something completely new to me and something that got me really excited. I’ve been painting miniatures since 1987 so this was a fresh new technique […]
This Devil, the mighty Balor, is a Christmas present from my wife (who incidentally is one of my D&D players and regularily gets told off by the other players for buying me miniatures). We haven’t been much in Avernus, but the few times we have been, it’s been fun games so maybe it is time […]
I am super excited about having finished this Griffon! Yes, throwing a CR2 monster against a 6 person strong lvl 8 party is not going to be an encounter worth remembering, but there are a number of reason why I have enjoyed painting this awesome miniature nevertheless. It is a Christmas present from my wife […]
One rare occasions there is a game where it is not that great for neither players or Dungeon Master. My execution of this oneshot, is unfortunately a good example of it. it wasn’t so terrible people walked away from the table, but neither was it littered with cheers and applause. I use these game diaries […]
While the Mountain King turned out to be Somiumanax, the Dream Dragon,Damon the Paladin had vowed to slay, the party decided on discretion in order to secure the Mountain King’s support in slaying the Winter Queen. the Mountain King was confident in his Frost Giants abilities to best the Winter Queen’s army. But frustratingly, the […]
When we left our heroes, they had made it up under the Frost Giant elevator that would (hopefully) take them up to the Castle in the Sky, the home of the Mountain King, who they intended to enlist as an ally in the fight against the Winter Queen. While we are playing online, my wife […]
The heroes jumped through the icy portal in pursuit of the Winter Queen, the alleged killer of the Dwarven Barbarian Grimshaw’s Aunt. As they looked up in the blizzard, they saw a clothed rabbit and an old friend, Feather the Tabaxi Cleric, who sacrificed himself by activating a magical item that rewound time to give […]
