Miniature hobby stuff is mostly what we do here. We all love gaming, but we all spend more time building armies, and painting them, than we do playing. That’s the beauty of a game like Warhammer 40K, it’s an all-encompassing hobby from modeling, to painting an army, to playing the game.

Using a wet palette will really change how you paint your miniatures. It’s something I recommend everyone use. So, I’ve put together a tutorial to make your own DIY wet palette at a very affordable price. It’s not the cheapest method, but it’s a great quality and still very affordable.
Hello all, Last week I posted pics of models I painted to a low tabletop standard for the sake of the Standish Standoff. Although I didn’t get them where I wanted them for the event this does leave me with… Read More »Rebel Grots (Imperial Guard) Platoon Command Squad Finished!
