6mm Fantasy & Sci-Fi

My chaos dwarfs are a mix of random minis I have gotten in trades or to make up numbers in small orders. No 'true' chaos dwarf (at least in the games workshop/warhammer sense of big hats, tusks, spikes, mechanical beasts and fireballs!) army exists in 6mm yet- the closest is irregulars 'Dark Dwarf' range. They are excellent, some of my favourite models from irregular, but they a visually not much different from 'regular' dwarfs. I'm not much fused about the big hats- so at this scale any dwarf is a chaos dwarf! Though I still hope to see some sculpts for true dark dwarves to one day to be done! I'm quite happy to create what I can from various ranges though, that's the great thing about 6mm. Most models are just a paint job away from being an entirely different race! My test stand for the chaos dwarfs. The stand at the back is from the dark dwarf army pack from irregular . I love the minis in this range, however, some of them do require ...

Epic 40k Painting Guide: 30k HH Emperor's Children

This guide shows how I paint my loyalist Emperor's children for Epic 30k. I'm using Novan Elites from Vanguard miniatures as stand ins for space marines in this force. They are splendid figures and paint up really quick. They are nicely cast and the scale really suits the lore of space marines. (Models are around 7mm-7.5mm tall) This 'Battle ready' paint scheme isn't the most detailed paint scheme, but its extremely fast to paint and the bold colours are striking on the gaming table. I've skipped over the 'starter steps' of painting. This guide presumes you have painted before. If requested, I can go over beginner steps in future guides . On to the painting Table: 1: Once the miniatures are cleaned up (vanguard minis have very minimal flash and mould lines. The shoulder pads on the novan elites are usually the only part that need attention) the models are sprayed with black undercoat. I use halfords matt black, as though I do like the citadel...

10 Reasons Why E40K is Great!

This article was not written by me! Sadly, the original author is unknown to us, but if anyone knows where it originally comes from please let me know so we can link to the original instead! I'm reposting it here, as an easier way to point those that are interested in reading it or for new players asking about the quality of this edition! Having it collected on an easy to link post will save John, from over at Vanguard miniatures , from having to repost it in individual comments every time the 3rd Ed. rules are brought up on the Epic Space Marine 40k Middlehammer group, over on facebook! I've left the list as close to the original posting as it is from the source I've taken it from, though I will jiggle the format where I can to make it fit the blog better, as it was broken up into several long comments on faceboook. I've added my own stylisation to some of the paragraph breaks as well, tweaking them to fit better on the page, as the format was shoddy from copying from...
