A lot of people these days seem to take it as a bad sign that the Sisters of Battle are currently relegated to an army list published only in an out-of-print White Dwarf, with little to no up-to-date (read: plastic) miniatures to make the army reasonab…
Following the release and relative success of Space Marine there was much speculation about a sequel. THQ & Relic were certainly up for it but the shaky plot and the arguably embarrassing artistic licence taken with some of the weapons probably killed it, despite the obvious opening for a second instalment. It wasn’t helped by […]
Hello all, Here’s a quick update on the Basilisk I’ve been working on for my Rebel Grots. Progress continues to be slow but at least I’m still moving forward. Once the tank is finished I’ll work on the crew. I am at the po…
I mentioned in my previous workbench post about an Obliterator I had mostly complete. I took a few shots of him this morning to show. I just put on basing material before taking this shot so if you see snow on the model that’s why; I haven’…
The Eldar’s Remnants of Glory are a bag of nasty tricks. The Mantle of the Laughing God and Faolchú’s Wing caught most people’s attention early on. As I noted in my article on these two, the game designers apparently made an effort to m…
It has been very much Fantasy around here lately, this one is for the 40K and Horus Heresy fans.It is amazing the sheer amount of projects I have stopped and started these last 3 years and also how much a few bits here and there can completely change t…
With the recent release of Forge World’s Fulgrim miniature, it seemed like a good time to get back into the Horus Heresy series and pick up the next book after The Flight of the Eisenstein. That book, of course, is Graham McNeill’s Fulgrim….
Forge World now releases the miniature for Fulgrim, Primarch of the Emperor’s Children for pre-order. He’s been previewed (and was available for sale) on the Forge World / Black Library Horus Heresy Weekender recently. Now the Phoenician is…

I’ve been reading over Codex: Eldar the last few days and trying to write a couple of different lists so I have some vague plan behind what I end up buying. It got me thinking – how important is the army/faction fluff to the list you play? Phil’s feelings on this is well documented but […]
In an effort to get models ready for an event at the end of this month, I started working on this Chaos Terminator. I did finish off the last Obliterator I needed but forgot to get a shot of him. This model is 99% done, I just have to go…Read MoreThe…
There is little doubt that the star of the recent 6th Edition Tau Codex is the the XV104 Riptide. The Riptide is a great model. It has a great variety of weapon-options, all of them useful in one way or another. It is hard to find a Tau army without a …
With all the kickstarter excitement and work, I managed to steal some time to complete a single miniature commissioned miniature painting. He is none other than Captain Sicarius of the Space Marine. Though I don’t collect Space Marine, I still … Continue reading →
I finished the center piece for the Blue Necron project. There is a lot of going on in there. Both the Overlord and the Wraith are magnetized and removable. They will have their respective wh40k bases done for them too.The client requested that the Lor…
There has been a plethora of announcements smaller Warhammer 40K-based games for the tablets and browser-gaming recently. This one sounds like it could be a bit bigger. Behaviour Interactive and Games Workshop are working together to realize “3rd…
As of yesterday, Black Library is offering a new line of electronic products titled “Games Workshop Digital Editions“. This new line of e-Publications seems to offer very little (usually between 10 to 15 pages) and very basic information (i…
Mormeg podrzucił mi swoje drednoty, które pomalował zainspirowany nieco wpisem, w którym pokazałem swoją trójkę. Pokazałem i narzekałem straszliwie na mierną jakość modeli. Początkowo mój brat sądził chyba, że trochę przesadzam, w ko…
When you become extremely awesome in the Dark Angel ranks it’s time to put on a dress! No but seriously I really like the veterans. They are much more interesting than the regular guys. The squad contains of one medic, banner bearer, a srg with a storm…
A signature addition to all Warhammer 40K Codexes in 6th Edition has been the list of unique Wargear items. Chaos Space Marines got Artifacts. Dark Angels Chapter Relics. Chaos Daemons Hellforged Artefacts. Tau their Signature System. Now Eldar get…
Hello all, It’s been another busy week but I did manage to get a little done on a basilisk I’ve been building for my counts-as-IG Rebel Grots. I finished casting and mounting the track plates and I started working on the armor that is cov…
About a week ago Russ suggested we play Warhammer 40K for our long weekend game, and rather than our usual “big bash” we should play some small skirmish style games. We agreed on 500pts and that was that. Or was it?At this point I started thinking abou…
Today is just a massive host of photo's – all of it is previous work but this time my brother in law Micheal a budding photographer brought his heavy duty camera equipment over and took what I can honestly say is some awesome shots of some of m…
Last week, a miniature painting competition was held in Germany, the Golden Vinci 2013. Lots of awesome miniatures. Lots of deserving winners. To me – judging less the painting quality (for which I would not be qualified), but more the pure aweso…
As (more or less) regular readers of Pin of War will know, I am very fond of named characters. If there is one army in Warhammer 40K that always had far more of those than almost every other 40K army, it is the Eldar. One reason for this is that, in a…
