Trolls, jætter, ogres...

For some time now, a friend of mine has had a topic on the danish hobby forum Powerfist.dk, about his sculpting and conversion of ogres into trolls or in danish; "jætter" (aka giants) I've been talking to him about how they should be painted and he has asked me to paint one of his characters. I think they look awesome so I willingly agreed. Yesterday I picked it up, here it is:

Here it is and I am looking forward to be painting the monster in all sorts of screaming colours! ;)

Painting Crusade 2014 Belgium

This weekend I was in Namur, Belgium for my first time ever participation of the Painting Crusade event. We were 4 people from Denmark, my two friends, Mikkel and Kristian and me participating in the painting competition. Jakob being one of the judges of the competition.

It was an awesome event and we had great fun all weekend, talking about and painting, models. I think the crew for a fantastic weekend were I learned a lot from all the more experienced painters who all came with a lot of comments on my painting

Here is a link to their facebook profile.

And here are the pictures I took. Its only a small digital camera I am packing, so not the best miniature pictures, they are more ment to give a general idea of how the event felt.


Hope I'll be back next year.

Thats a bad mailman :(

Back in January I placed and order for the "Macragge's Honor" from Black Library Its a huge illustrated novel with gilded pages and it cost €95.00. The book was only being printed as they received order so the eta for delivery was 6-10 weeks. I placed the order the the 3. January and received the book in the mail last saturday. Now, Denmark has the national royal postal service and usually they are great. Much more reliant then UPS or GLS. Thus I requested that Postdanmark would handle the postage.

Last Saturday, I finally received the model. I wasn't home but my girlfriend was and she could text me and show me how the mailman had forced the package down into the mailbox:

I came home and gently pealed the wrapping of the book. Fortunately Black Library knows how to wrap their expensive books and thus it was limited how much the book had been damaged.
As mentioned, normally I always used the danish postal service but this time, I am really disappointed with the mailman.
The book itself is amazing. A huge book, true quality paper and amazing graphics. Bad thing is, its too short. The story tell the fate of the Ultramarines battleship Macragge's Honor while hunting Kor Phaeron on his battle barge into the void, after the ambush committed by the Word bearers.

Daemon, henchemen and my first ever empire miniature

This post is something specielt. It contains my very first ever Crazy Goblin Miniatures figurine.

We start out with my first ever empire miniature painted. Its a requested job I did for free mostly because I wanted to practice some freehand.

I also got to finish another of the henchemen for Hector Rex:

And now for the big reveal. I am proud to present my first ever Crazy Goblin Miniatures model, sculted by a good friend of mine.

Though it was one of the first casts and it had some faults in it, I enjoyed it immensely and hope to paint many more of Bents sculpts.


Till next time, take care.

The weekends work at a trip to Horisont Silkeborg

This weekend I went to a danish convention in Silkeborg; Horisont. It's a convention about all the different board games and miniature wargames out there. Of course there are people present that knows about Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40k, but those games are actually not represented the whole weekend... besides from be painting Games Workshop miniatures.

Its a weekend where a lot of people bring a lot of different games and present them to anyone interested. Its cheap to participated and you can try all the games you like. There is almost everything from Star Trek board games, over 2nd WW games to historical battles between crusaders and arabs from the dark ages.

I like watching other people playing games, but I really suck at playing strategic games and also, I dont feel like I benefit from playing a game when the host is telling me everything I need to do. So I'd rahter see people who know the game play it, and when I didnt do that during the weekend, I was painting on my toddler Russ and other projects. Here goes:

In the breaks between painting the toddler, I worked on my kitbashed black templer assault captain. He is still not completely done but here at some WIP pictures:

Now, I just stated I am bad at playing games... well I am but I do find a few of them fun to play. One of them is Blood Bowl. I have a skaven team, but when a friend asked if I wanted to join a league, and couldnt pick skaven because he was going to play that team, I chose the trusty dwarfs. I dont have a dwarf team but my friend had recently bought a dwarf team and as a thanks I've started to paint a few of them:

Let me hear what you think. Cheers
