Springtime is here, and with it a few cool hobby projects over on www.pinsofwar.net that are worth sharing: Infinity, Hordes and (I think) a Chaos conversion for Warhammer. Have a look and let me know what you think of these! And as always, many thanks to the creators for sharing your hobby work. #1 – […]
Warhammer 40K Rumour Fight – BoLS vs. 40K Radio
I admit, the work of Warhammer 40K (and Fantasy) rumour-mongers is hard, dangerous and thankless. Lots of misinformation, lots of vague wishlists being flaunted as rumours, and very few, if any, good indicators of what is, or could be, a genuine rumour. This January, the Warhammer 40K is treated to a special treat: Two rumours […]

A Short Daemonette History
Chaos Daemons is obviously one of those armies that goes back long, long ways in Warhammer and Warhammer 40K. From the entire range, one of the most interesting (and most susceptible to change) are the Daemonettes. Where, say, the Rogue Trader-era Bloodletters looked essentially like they look today (mini-Devils), the visuals for Games Workshop’s Daemonette went through […]
