Just another quick post I am afraid - I promise I have some more exciting stuff coming along in the pipework including my first game of 40k in about 9 months, a completely painted Rogue Trader fleet, and surprise fleet! Ooooh exciting, right? For now though, I give you my recently painted Blackstone Fortresses - [...]

BFG – Arbites Punisher Class Cruiser, Dauntless, and Enforcer Class Light Cruisers – Part 2
Hi guys Back to the little Adeptus Arbites series I have going on here, this time to look at the Dauntless and Enforcer Class Light Cruisers that make up the fleet along with the Punisher Class Strike Cruiser detailed earlier.

BFG – Arbites Punisher Class Cruiser, Dauntless, and Enforcer Class Light Cruisers – Part 1
Hey guys I have recently been reading the Execution Hour and Shadow Point books by Gordon Rennie which are set around the Gothic War and the space battles of Captain Leoten Semper aboard the Dictator Class Cruiser, the Lord Solar Macharius.

Simple scenario - I set up the defences, then Andy and [...]

Just a super quick post as I have been busy over the last couple of days. I finished painting up one of the packs of Defence Platforms I ordered from FW - just a very basic dark gray, silver and gold scheme. The models are great although the joins between the central spire and the [...]
BFG – Forgeworld Escort Carriers and Defence Monitors
Hi guys, Sorry it has been a little quiet lately, holidays = more thesis work unfortunately. Still next up are some more of my recent Forgeworld order (still waiting on some Torpedo platfoms, even after calling and reminding them twice... Not cool FW!). First up are the Escort Carriers - merchant ships that have had [...]
Rocks in space!
Just a quick update. My friend Andy, from Miniature Miscellany,recently bought some BBQ rocks and made them into great BFG asteroids. He very nicely gave a handful to me and I have been converting them into planetary defences / Ork Roks. I have tried to keep them pretty generic so I can use them across [...]
