I recently reviewed these figures on my blog: http://corvusminiatures.blogspot.com/2010/06/review-red-box-games.html I think these are great miniatures and want to know what you think of the company and the figures.

I don't know the exact name, but I hope you understand what I mean. I'm looking for one of those revolving desktop storage things for paint bottles, typically for Vallejo. Anyone knows where I can order them online and ship them to Europe? Thanks! -Corvus

If you don\'t know Mantic Games: check out my blog post here. In this thread I will log all painting projects which are related to Mantic Games. Since their first release will be Elves (being released late September) it\'s what I will be painting first! So I got this spearmen preview sprue in...

In the past 2 years I didn\'t really painted anything up to showcase level: mainly did gaming and medium quality stuff, so this is really getting used to again :) Some areas can be improved: the NMM, the blendings on the skin, etc. But in general I\'m very happy about this paintjob, and also of...

I want to buy a batch of display plinths to base all my showcase minis on. This shouldn\'t be too expensive, the plinths shouldn\'t be painted. I think resin is the cheapest material? A basic shape like square ones is ok, maybe some cylindrical ones. Does anyone know of a cheap online store...

Check out this entry: http://www.coolminiornot.com/224667. I want to know how the ground cover has been done. It looks like some scatter material, but I think it is painted. What is it?

Just played my first game of 40k in 5 years (a few games of 3rd edition back then), and it\'s amazing how fast someone can forget about the rules! :) But in general I think the new edition of 40k is much easier to play. My friend and I are having some doubts on how to roll cover saves. For...

Painted this warband for a customer. He wanted to have some jade color incorporated into the warband, for the rest of the colours I was free to choose. So I decided on this mix of the original studio paintjob and some jade accents. I think it turned out quite good. The goal here was to create a...
