Pins of the Month – October 2013

Pins of War

Keeping up the tradition (I hope it will be, I’m horrible with serial formats) started last month, here’s a selection of miniatures added to www.pinsofwar.net this month, that deserve to be seen! #1 – Infinity Goodness by Studio Giraldez Not a month, not a week actually, without another absolutely stunning Infinity miniature on display from Ángel […]

Kickstarter & Licensed Intellectual Property

Licensed IP Kickstarter

Mantic Games is getting ready to kickstart a new miniatures board game: Mars Attacks. And doing so, they may well herald a new chapter in the miniature wargaming industry, or at least the Kickstarter-driven side of it. Mantic is now combining two ends of the wargaming industry I would’ve thought were polar opposites: Crowd-funded games […]

Unboxing – Valdis the Witch from Norsgard

Norsgard Miniatures Witch

Just after Christmas last year, I was one of the lucky few to win a miniature of Valdis the Witch in Norsgard’s Facebook naming competition. This week, the postman came knocking with a package from Poland. Inside, of course, a brand new blister with Valdis the Witch from Norsgard. Many, many thanks again to the awesome […]

Unboxing: Heroic Ashara from Raging Heroes

Raging Heroes Ashara Anniversary Edition

A long (long) time ago, I wrote a short blog post about Raging Heroes Sci-Fi Blood Vestals.

Kickstarter is Entertainment

Kickstarter

If you visited my blog before, it should be no secret to you that I am quite a Kickstarter  (Indiegogo, Peerbackers, etc..) enthusiast. Not only did a number of awesome miniature projects recently launch with crowd-funding help. Crowd-funding sites themselves are a phenomenon that is, for lack of a better phrase, still in the process of […]

Unboxing – Kingdom Death Twilight Knight

Kingdom Death Twilight Knight

Kingdom Death – and the game’s Kickstarter success – have kept my busy blogging for some time now. The one downer of the KD: Monster Kickstarter is that the game and miniatures won’t ship until Christmas next year. A long wait. To satisfy my curiosity in the meantime, I ordered one of Kingdom Death’s Twilight […]

4 Amazing Painted Kingdom Death Miniatures

Kingdom Death Flower Knight

Kingdom Death took Kickstarter by storm. I didn’t even quite realize who I was interviewing when I sent Adam Poots an email with questions some time ago. Since then, I kept an eye open for Kingdom Death miniatures. And I have seen amazing things. I created a Kingdom Death category on PinsofWar.net. If you paint them, feel […]
