  • IMPORTANT NEWS: Portal Magazine

    I wanted to make you aware of an important development regarding Portal.

    After Decembers issue of Portal Shane will be stepping down from the magazine and as moderator.

    I would like to say thank-you to Shane for his hard work and dedication over the 30 months he has put Portal together. He has been a real driving force behind the magazine and helped make it the No1 free monthly magazine dedicated to Miniature Painting.
    So thanks Shane and on behalf of Wamp I wish you all the best.

    Unfortunately it also means that as things stand the next issue of Portal will be the last.

    I would like to see the magazine continue as I believe in it and its place in the hobby. Its widely regarded around the world and each month its download numbers increase. It helps bring a lot of awareness to Wamp which in turn helps the forum to flourish.

    What I want to try and do is put together a team of people that could help produce Portal every month.

    What I am looking for is people that can commit each month and are enthusiastic about Portal and Wamp. Whilst a part of the team would need some experience in designing and laying out the magazine (CS5, Adobe Creator,etc) I also need others that could help collate content.

    Each member of the team would receive a percentage of the revenue from each issue of Portal.

    If you are interested in getting involved please pm me.


    I won't lie, it's been a very hard year personally and Wamp has had some bad luck (losing 90% of its income because of Maelstrom and Wayland situations) and now this on top. I have seriously considered shutting it down!!

    I do however hope that this development can be used as an opportunity to create an even better Portal Magazine but I can't do it alone. Wamp is full of enthusiastic and generous people that give so much back to the community and I hope a few of you could come together with me and keep Portal going. If not well Bon Voyage and thanks for the memories!

    Thanks

    Brett

  • The Hotseat: Demented Games
    by Darklord

    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 )

    (Seb) Wow 11 years - yes, things have certainly changed a lot in that time! Last time...

  • Warploque Miniatures – A comparison between cast and printed miniatures.
    by Brambleten
    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
    by Brambleten
    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...

  • Review: Solomon Kane
    by Darklord
    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 ...

  • Taking on the Dark Arts
    by Darklord
    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 ...

  • Coming Clean: Colours of Battle Paints
    by Cregan Tur
    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...
