Fortress of Redemption
I finally finished painting the Fortress of Redemption. I know I have a ton more figures to paint, but this giant building was just screaming Paint Me! So I did. It seemed like it wouldn’t take too long once it was primed black. I started with a fairly heavy dry brush of P3 Paints Bastion [...]

Painted Rhino
I painted up the exterior of the Rhino Transport last night. The entire process took about an hour. I think it turned out pretty good. This is my first vehicle paint job. I have learned some lessons on this one, I hope I get better from here. I started by priming the Rhino and a [...]
Building a Rhino
I put together the Rhino from the Space Marines Mega Force box last night. Here is my build notes: First, there are so may options! What kind of vehicle to build a Rhino or a Razorback? Where should I put the gun? Hatch open or closed? Space Marine out almost all the way, or just [...]
Speed Painting: Terminators

Building a Building
I put together the Games Workshop Shrine of Aquilla building yesterday and took some pictures and some notes. This building is quite a big bigger then the last two I put together. It came in fewer pieces, but was still a bit difficult to assemble. The main difference being that the walls are quite large [...]
GW Building Tutorial
I showed a picture in one of my earlier posts of the Games Workshop Manufactorum assembled and ready to paint. I painted it last night, and I think it turned out better then the first building I did. The big difference was the drybrushing. Let me first say this about the GW buildings. They are [...]
Games Workshop Realm Battletable: Tutorial
I am working on the rather large, extremely awesome Games Workshop Battle Table. For those who aren’t familiar with the Battle Table, it’s a plastic molded table. It’s 6′ x 4′ and comes in 6 tiles each 2′ x 2′. I read the GW article on how to paint and put the whole thing together, [...]
