Purple is my colour of choice!

 

Some news from the Cult. Still purple, still mean, a little bit more old school! 

Heroquest with random Dungeons

I had a first try with random Dungeon Generator for Heroquest. I borrowed some ideas from Dungeon Universalis, League of Dungeoneers and Warhammer Quest. My mixture worked surprisingly well and we're going to play in a group with two dads and two 9 year olds quite soon. Fully Co-op, no Zargon needed anymore! 

Battlefleet Gothic: Just another stupid idea

 What to do if you have countless unfinished projects in the painting queue? Start another project from zero! This time I have to do something about that space combat itch! I will surely not play the original BFG rules, bit I aim to have some fun with OPR Warfleets oder Void Admiral. Here is what I have painted so far. 

   

Pulp Alley Batrep - The abandoned Outpost

 

Blog Necromancy - and a Space Weirdos batrep!

I realize that I didn't post anything in over a year... shame on me. Actually, I finished a lot of projects (and started 100 new ones), but I didn't find time to post them here.

Well, better late than never - here's a new batrep!

I tried out Space Weirdos by Garske Games and a lot of fun hunting down some mutants with my Cawdor gang. As always, it was a solo game. 

All the best, 

Skully :)

 

EDIT: Thank you for revisiting the blog and for commenting the post. I tried to answer, I tried to comment on your stuff - IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. Everytime I try to comment something, I have to log in again. Blogger offers me another Google account of mine, but won't let me choose the hobby related one... I don't get it. :(  

Really, I don't get it.

I have checked prices for 3D-Printers recently. You can get the formidable Mars 2 Pro for 130 Euros. That's the price for three Warhammer 40k Codices. It is easy to use. Since I changed scale, I don't paint models, I paint armies. Why on earth do people stick with GW and 28mm scale??

Well, I'm not THAT arrogant. You do whatever you like, of course. But I solemnly swear that I will never paint a "big guy" again. ;)

 

Gloomy Green Coffin Boy

Finished my first Dark Angels vehicle in 15mm. I'm very happy how the print of the Contemptor Dreadnought came out and I managed to paint him in 90 minutes. Always took me a little bit longer in 28mm scale. I will use him for Xenos Rampant. Maybe I will add a Rhino and a Predator as well, next are Assault Marines and Terminators. 

 

 

My eyes may rot...

...but I do see you!

I have to start into 2023 with a big SORRY to some people that have been such great folks since I blog here. I have some really weird problems with my google account that prevent me from making comments on YOUR sites. I can still answer to your posts that you leave here, but I cannot write properly anywhere else. If I try to comment on your work, I have to re-enter my google-account (which works), but the text-box for commenting still doesn't work for me. I have also tried with another account, but that also failed. 

I will see if a new computer changes anything of that, but at the moment I'm just a silent watcher. This goes out to you, guys: Javier, Suber, Allison, Toby, Doc Merkury, Zrune, Mattblackgod, Brazo, Rodor, Mr. Martin and all the other great guys I may have forgotten. I do see you, but I cannot tell you so. Wish me luck, I will try to solve this. 

To start 2023, I chose my 15mm Nurgle Plague Marines, rotten to the core (of course) and 3D-printed as most of the stuff I do nowadays. 

 Happy 2023 everybody! :)

 

 

It's Necrovember, but here it feels like summer!

It is really warm for this time of year and I spent lots of time outside with the kids. But some quick paintjobs per evening for little more than a week gave me a respectable 15mm Necron force. I used the superb Cronz-files from Ankylo Miniatures that came out of my printer in perfect shape. I added a downscaled Skorpekh Lord and now I'm ready to harvest! Can't wait to try them out with Grim Dark Future or Xenos Ramapant, once it is available.
