As I'm working through a fair amount of Imperial Guard at the moment, it's obvious that I need representation and encouragement from the glorious members of the Commissariat. So, part one - I've owned my Guard army in some form or another s…
For no obvious reason, I decided it was time to paint the tech priest I got from a bring and buy some time ago. He actually made it onto the table last weekend, and had a go at surviving his first game, until I flung him into a heroic yet d…

My insane decision to pay for the Premium level subscription for the Combat Patrol magazine has struck again, so I've been forced to paint some more things, and then, much later, take photos of them in suboptimal lighting. The big hitter in…
Here's a piece of information that will interest no one at all. This is the second-longest streak of models for a single force in the Combat Patrol magazine series so far! This is, apparently, a Helbrute. Why is there only one L in the name…
I might not have been on top of blogging about it, but I've been painting things from the Combat Patrol deliveries so I can do a bit of blog admin now. We're now onto Chaos Space Marines! Here's a Dark Apostle, and friends. Given I'm doing
Part of my insane, money-burning approach to the 40k Combat Patrol magazine is the Premium subscription. I pay a bit more for each issue, to then get some extra deliveries with more models. The first of these gave me extras for the Tyranids…

In my last post, I owned up to being behind with my efforts to paint all the models in the Combat Patrols magazine series as they arrive. Now, I'll belatedly make the case for my own defence. Essentially, it's that I was painting other 40k
I'm going to say right off the bat, I'm still on track here, and everything is fine. My goal was to keep on top of the arrivals in the post, now that I have a subscription to the 40k Combat Patrol magazine. This means painting 4 weeks' wort…
I've done another thing, and thus must write another post. These are the rules, as it turns out. This time, the thing in question is 02 Hundred Hours, the WW2 night raids game from Grey for Now Games. I've had this sitting around for 18 mon…
In the summer of 2012, I wrote this post, apologising for an extended period (over 2 months in fact) with no updates to this blog. It was a silly little piece of creative writing which I quite enjoyed putting together, and I was of course i…
