Mandalorian civil war

Recently my gaming group has had a renewed interest is Star Wars Shatterpoint. We saw that Atomic Mass had updated several old profiles of the game and decided to give it a go again with some new players. After some demos, and seing that we were probably going to play this again, I decided to invest some time in painting the remaining parts of my base set that were still just primed.  I had not painted any of the mandalorians on the base set, hoping maybe to sell them off one day, but as the game has not come out with any new base box and everyone playi…

The terror that was prophesized

When I painted my Kurgan warband for Sphere Wars, one model was left remaining. The massive Leviathan miniature. This resin miniature is twice the size of bigger models and it totally dwarfs human sized miniatures.  For miniatures this big I tend to use Army Painter Speedpaints. It allows for great coverage and variations in color and tone with smooth transitions.  The model includes several areas that were supposed to look decayed. I'm not really a fan of the zombie aesthetic, so instead I opted to make those areas look like hair patches, which als…

A tide of Red

Today I bring you one of my favorite projects from this year, a completely customized Redcap army for Warcrow the wargame, based on the Warcrow Adventures boardgame miniatures. The 2 board game expansions come with enough redcaps to field a complete army, however, all figures are monopose so I had to work my way into reposing them to make them feel distinct.  Starting with the Gobblers, these were cut apart to put the shooter in different positions around the rocky environment. I decided to use the original sculpt that is riding the two looters, as the …

Asteroid prospection team

In preparation for the Zaragoza Satelite tournament, I've been painting some extra nomad troops. This in particular are the Rocaworks crew from Tag Raid, the Infinity Deathmatch board game.  The Prospector was one of my favorite miniatures of the Kickstarter campaign, as it gives massive cyberpunk vibes with his metallic implants and his massive gains. He will be used as a Diablo in my Corregidor sectorial force. The hacker from the crew will be used as my Bandit as I'm not too fond of the current Bandit hacker miniature. Bandits have received a…

Beasts from the mystical north

I recently discovered that a friend of mine is one of the designers from the spanish wargame Sphere Wars, that was widely popular during the 2000s. They recently went to Kickstarter to finance a new edition and they asked me to partake in the promotion campaign for the game. I did some lore videos for them as well as some videos talking about the rules and a lenghty interview with the designers to help spread the word about the game.  As part of the promotion materials, the team got me one Kurgan warband, the one that I played on the demos so I could do…
