Warploque Miniatures – A comparison between cast and printed miniatures.
Anyone that has received a resin miniature from Warploque Miniatures will know, from the title, that this is a very unfair comparison to put together. There are two casters that I would recommend above all others in the UK – BrokenToad, and Rob Huntley of Warploque Miniatures - I've never had a bad or mediocre cast from either. Nevertheless, I got my hands on my first 3D printed miniatures recently and as they’re from Warploque via their Digital Workshop, it’s a comparison I’m going to make.... -

Review: She-Hulk for Marvel: Crisis Protocol from Atomic Mass Games
Welcome to this review of She-Hulk from Atomic Mass Games! It is my first review for a while (or at least my first review longer than an Instagram snippet) so I'm a little rusty and may well get carried away and ramble in places – apologies in advance.
At the time of writing, She-Hulk is the latest release from Atomic Mass Games for their Marvel: Crisis Protocol tabletop skirmish game. The great thing about The Crisis Protocol kits is that they’re all uniformly...Last edited by Brambleten; 03-03-2021, 11:02 pm. -

Review: Solomon Kane
Introduction FeR miniatures is becoming one of the go-to sites for larger scale miniatures in recent times, developing a reputation for producing stunning busts and figures, and collaborating with sculptors such as Raffaele Picca and David Zabrocki. It is run by the equally talented painter Fernando Ruiz, who in fact painted the box art for the kit we're looking at here. Chances are that if you've seen a historical figure/bust on Facebook or Putty & Paint over the last 12 months, it's from this ... -

Coming Clean: Colours of Battle Paints
Sometimes reviews are just hard to write. Often it’s because what you’re reviewing is hard to define within the scope you’re used to working in; it’s something new, a deviation. But what could be more straight forward than reviewing paints? I’ve done it before, after all. So why was a review so difficult to write? Part of the reason is that, as far as my research has shown, these paints are manufactured by the same company that makes Privateer Press’ P3 line of paints. They’re even in the same... -

WAMP Review: Dark Sword Raccoon Thief
Cregan Tur My wife gave me the Raccoon Thief from Dark Sword miniatures for my birthday a few years ago, so I’m very familiar with the piece even though it still gets shuffled around me lead mountain and hasn’t seen any painting except as a cloth demo on the cloak about a year ago. Really need to strip him down and give him a good paint job… but I digress. If you don’t know what a raccoon is, then you’re not from the United States and have never seen Disney’s Pocahontas. They’re omnivorous rode... -

Male Ranger by Dark Sword
Cregan Tur
The Male Ranger (not to be confused with Male Elf Ranger from a previous review. Everyone still with me? Okay, good) from Dark Sword has become a pretty well known figure thanks to the incredible monotone paint job by Jen Haley that Miniature Mentor made a tutorial for… but that’s an entirely different review. Here the focus is on the miniature itself.
First off, I have to be honest and say that I always thought this guy was holding a hunting horn. Only after... -

WAMP review: Reaper Bugbear Warrior - Bones vs Metal
During their immensely successful Kickstarter project (“Help us dig up all of the bones!”), Reaper got a huge amount of attention for their new miniatures line, Bones. Miniatures of this line are made of a polymer plastic that is supposed to be easier to use as it allows gamers and painters to skip priming and start painting immediately after taking the mini out of the blister package. In addition to that, the prices are much lower than the prices of the metal range.
In this review we wi... -

WAMP review: Guild of Harmony - Maria Poppets and Albert
This review centers on the two miniatures Maria Poppets and Albert, from the Guild of Harmony steampunk collection. Following the well-known story, the two miniatures form a couple and are sculpted as one fitting piece (several parts, mind you). This piece comes as a limited edition resin edition, though maybe in the future a metal version will also be released. One thing to mention is that I personally am a huge fan of this steampunk line and Sebastian Archer’s (owner and sculptor for Guild o... -

In this Hotseat we sit down and chat with thee guys from Demented Games, the Australian company behind the wonderful Twisted game.
Seb, Its almost 11 years to the day we sat you down in the hotseat. Back then there was no Guild of Harmony or Twisted. So how did things pan out in that time to bring you to where you are now? (Read Sebs original interview here: Seb Archer )

Dark Art Studios turns 12 at the end of the year we manage to catch a few words with Byron about the new Vengeance Miniatures range and the new Table Top game from Dark Art – Arena of Doom.
Hey Byron, please tell us about Vengeance Miniatures?
The new miniature range is 35mm heroic scale and will be made using traditional techniques out of an alloy metal which is our own formula.
How did the name come about? Vengeance Miniatures ...-
