Over the past week I’ve been trawling the lead pile to try and clear out some chaff from my collection. I’ve managed to put the first set of lots up (some of them are near the last 20 hours), and I’ll be putting many many more up over the next few months as I just try desperately to make room in the house.
Now the reason i’m posting this up is the fact that I found an old Blood Bowl Referee who was painted and horribly chipped. So half hour later and some mad pallet mixing work I managed to touch the paint job up and get him varnished and dullcoted.
I wont be adding him to my gallery as the majority of the work was done by someone else(I cant remember who for the life of me) and once again excuse the shite photo, but here he is;
"That's a foul you Goblin douche!"
So if you want to check him out or even buy him click the linki below for my listings.

Its been a while since I last posted due to the family bereavement, but I am back and I have been painting. Once again it’s those pesky GW 40k Orks and i’ve updated the gallery with 2 pictures of the completed Wartrakk thatwas seen here recently as a W.I.P.
Sadly looking ropey due to inaffectual photo skills.
What with having an almost fully painted 1500 point Ork force, I thought I would concentrate on getting the last 9 minis done. So far I’ve actually fully finished 1 Ork Nob with power klaw, got the skin done on Snikrot and 2 Kommandos and got halfway through my Big Mek.
I’ll take a few W.I.P shots when I’m a bithappier that I can take piccies again or get a new camera 
Thanks for looking again and have a very Happy Christmas 2009!

Found out yesterday that my Nan; Florence Bryan died peacefully in her sleep. She had been a staple fixture in my life since I was born and had always been there for me and my sisters. She suffered a stroke a few years ago and was unable to communicate, walk or use her right side of her body.
Even through that she still managed to labour on.
She will be missed dearly by all her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Once again with the crappy camera pictures(this time from camera phone) heres a WIP of my Ork Wartrakk that i’ve just converted. Basically i’ve always hated the old model with old crew and added a new gunnery platform and new crew to make it upto date.

Well its been some time since I posted anything of any nature so I thought i’d share a couple of group pics of my (always) WIP Blood Axe Warband. My photography skills have dropped again and these are the best quality ones I can show at the moment.

Well for the past while i’ve been toing and froing with illness which has partially stopped me from painting. Currently on the chopping block (so to speak) is the newish GW Battlewagon.
I’ve tried a new way around the painting this time so rather than painting the block colours then adding damage and rust, I started with a total rust coat on the vehicle then painted the paint onto that leaving rust parts showing and giving the impression of flaking paint.
I should have some W.I.P pics up over the next few days.
About a month ago I painted some old Heroquest miniatures to add to one of my Heroquest boxed games. I managed to complete the Barbarian, Elf and a lone Goblin before falling ill. SO If I can get a decent picture of them i’ll post them up soon as well.

Over at Frothers Unite Forums, Dagenhameast and Artemis Black are organising a series of in forum charity auctions. They are for Race For Life which is a UK based cancer charity.
Most people have had a relative either suffer with cancer or pass away from it, I lost my Grandad; George Bryan in 1992 to a very viscious stomach cancer.
At the moment I cannot afford to bid, but I have donated my Olley’s Armies Shroud(you can see it in my gallery) to the pile of stuff in the auctions. So far the bidding and donations have been very generous and if you feel like helping out please follow these links;

Alternatively you can donate directly via Dagenhameast’s family’s links;

2 updates in 1 day? What have I done?
Well I sorted out the PDF for the restart of the Wal’s Hole Tribune and also ironed out some creases in the file which were causing extra blank pages to appear. If you want to have a look at the PDF click the image below…
