Chivalrous Bum! Yes, really.
A free, fast medieval skirmish game we tried last week using my Robin Hood figures. Grab a brew 🍵, a biscuit 🍪, and see how it played out:

Do any of you own the fireforge games dwarf range of minis? If so how do they scale to the Oathmark dwarves?
I’m still listing and selling my Warhammer collection. This week’s batch includes some pretty good deals. Check it out, link in my bio.
Don't forget your first pets name either.

Happy Superman Day!
Look what turned up today!

It’s been a while since I revisited these. The elves are proper old‑school, dating back to the early 1990s, while the knight and dwarf are much more recent sculpts.

A tabletop sci‑fi diorama showing weathered futuristic vehicles and buildings. In the foreground, two yellow, taxi‑branded armored pods with black windows sit on a printed base. Behind them are green and black cargo crates with futuristic symbols, a small standing miniature figure, and scattered sci‑fi accessories, all arranged on a work surface.
Picked up these Micro Art Studio Pepinillo Van kits at #Salute this year. Quick and easy to build, with a great sci‑fi vibe. Perfect for cyberpunk or Mega‑City One, and simple, effective tabletop terrain.

Totally get it from your perspective. What really caught me out were the queues, I hadn’t expected them at all. Definitely triggered a strong sense of FOMO, even when I wasn’t sure what I was missing out on.
A painted tabletop miniature of John Wick standing on a round base, aiming a handgun forward with both hands. The small model wears a jacket and trousers, appears weathered and dusty, and is photographed against a blurred urban street scene with other figures in the background.
A painted tabletop miniature of Zoey from K‑Pop Demon Hunters, posed mid‑turn on a round base. The figure wears a sleeveless outfit with teal, purple, and yellow accents, chunky shoes, and fingerless gloves, with one hand raised holding glowing, crystal‑like shapes. A blurred urban scene forms the background.
Locked, loaded, and tabletop‑ready. 🎯

Like you, I’ve already got loads of dice and haven’t felt the urge to buy more for a long, long time. I just didn't get the dice craze at all 🤷
I really enjoyed the #Salute show, but was disappointed by the lack of historical miniature retailers - especially when the historical tables were such great eye candy. New fantasy and sci‑fi games ruled instead. The dice stalls, though? They clearly had the odds stacked in their favour.
#Salute53
Did score a win with the show freebies though as I ended up with a sprue of Mantic Abyssal Dwarf Blacksouls/Decimators. One of our group didn’t want their dwarves, so they came home with me. About £30 of (20) figures for the price of a #Salute ticket.
#Salute53
Various wargame material - mdf kits, dice tray and resin figures.
My fairly modest haul from #Salute yesterday: ticked off a few items from the shopping list, plus a couple of impulse buys. Slightly gutted not to snag the Army Painter Speedpaint markers - who knew they’d be so popular?
#Salute53
Glad you enjoyed it! The font is Comic Sans Serif - chosen in the spirit of fun. I know it has a reputation… it’s basically the Marmite of fonts 😄
🎨 More hobby ramblings incoming! I’ve been diving into the Perry Travel Battle game - tiny soldiers, big battles, and even bigger delusions of grandeur. Catch the full post on my blog:

A painted 28mm miniature of the stands on a round base, wearing a long tan coat over a red shirt and bright blue trousers, with white shoes. The figure has a dark-toned face and a confident, relaxed pose, set against a softly blurred, warm-toned background.
Fresh off the painting desk: my 28mm Fifteenth Doctor miniature! 🎨 Long coat, bold colours, and plenty of attitude in tiny scale. “I’m the Doctor. I save people.” Ready for timey-wimey tabletop adventures - just don’t blink… 👀 #DoctorWho

Absolutely. We’ve got a guy at work who, instead of typing in Slack like everyone else, insists on sending voice notes. He seems completely unaware of just how frustrating it is for the rest of us.
If you fancy a closer look at my Zulu War figures - including different photos, background notes, and a bit of hobby rambling - I’ve just posted a fresh write‑up on the blog.

This week’s main hobby adventure: painting the Perry Travel Battle boards and tiny 8mm troops. Turns out my eyes weren’t built for microscopic detail, but I survived… mostly! 🔎🖌️🤣 #MiniatureMonday #wargaming #nerdlings #wargames
Three more figures from AW Miniatures for #MiniatureMonday - featuring two characters inspired by 'Zulu Dawn' (Durnford and Bloomfield) and one based on Schiess from 'Zulu'. #wargaming #nerdlings #wargames
4 copies of Issue 2 available in TGJones in Eastleigh. They've been put next to the copies of White Dwarf.

If you want small, here’s small!
These 8mm Perry Travel Battle minis are tiny enough to test my patience, eyesight, and possibly my sanity! 🎨🧐 And let’s be honest, I’m not winning any painting prizes with these! 😂
#Nerdlings #FindFolkFriday #wargaming
Thanks for the insights, really interesting to hear how the distribution works, and good catch on Ogors, not Ogres! 🤦
£6.99 for three is incredible value, especially with the £38 ones being unavailable on the GW site. No wonder scalpers already have Issue 2 up on eBay for £20… unbelievable!
Did my early pre‑work weekly supermarket run. Asda Eastleigh had only two copies of #Spearhead Issue 2. Last week they had 20+ of Issue 1 - so either circulation’s tanked, or Rat Ogres are suddenly the must‑have collectible of 2026.

A tabletop wargaming board composed of small square terrain tiles arranged in a grid, featuring a mix of green fields, dark plowed farmland, and textured rocky or grassy areas. Several winding raised roads run across the board, passing small model buildings with grey or red roofs. Clusters of model trees and foliage appear in two corners, while a few circular tokens with red markings are placed near one edge.
Picked up the Perry Travel Battle set on sale and painted the terrain tiles. A single green looked too flat, so I experimented with varied shades. The result became a patchwork effect - still unsure whether it really works.

Three painted 28mm tabletop miniatures stand on square bases covered with yellow flock and small stones, positioned on grass terrain with a countryside backdrop. Each figure wears a light blue shirt and dark trousers and holds a long pole weapon. The left figure leans on the weapon with a yellow object at the figure’s feet. The center figure stands with one hand on a hip and a pole weapon in the other hand, wearing a textured helmet. The right figure holds a pole weapon at an outward angle and has a strap with a pouch across the torso.
Three painted 28mm tabletop miniatures are positioned on square bases covered with yellow flock and small stones, set on green grass terrain with a countryside backdrop. The left figure carries a sack-like object, the middle figure has a werewolf-style head and is posed mid-stride with an arm extended, and the right figure holds a long firearm while stepping forward.
I’ve neglected #miniaturemonday recently due to work, but here are some AW Miniatures Zulu War figures inspired by characters from the film 'Zulu'. I’m not planning to dive into historical gaming, but I’ve wanted these film characters for a while - more to come.

My latest AAR: A haunted estate, a wild cult, and a summoning gone wrong - all interrupted by the Eleventh Doctor and River Song. 👻🌀 Blaster fire, ghosts, chaos, and one grumpy Time Lord with a scorched shirt. 🔫🕰️🔥

Hours of setup, perfect scenario, everything ready… and then the dice gods shrug, wander off, and turn my carefully planned epic into a one‑sided game that ends in record time.
Asked for a 5. Got 2s and 3s. My D12 hates me personally 🙄
Truly the pinnacle of #wargaming.
