  • Good morning folks, Counterfett here with yet another installment in the moderately successful and delightfully mediocre Sci-Rifle countdown! I’m back to morning posting, so as not to conflict with my planned upcoming Examiner post, but whatever. I sometimes don’t feel like posting there quite as scheduled, so maybe I’ll do...

  • I finally got around to finishing the second unit of treekin, they had been 90% done for a while. I based the colours on a piece of bark I found in a nearby wood, which saved me the job of trying to make up my own scheme. I often turn...

  • Can you tell what is it yet? No, it’s not some new super mutant Empire chicken, but a slightly more realistically proportioned member of the avian family. It’s an eagle from the Gamezone range of figures. I have liked their figures for some time, but I have always been a...

  • First unit of treekin painted. For inspiration on the colours I copied a Rowan tree, a light greyish brown bark colour with dappled white highlights. There are also a few patches of green and grey-blue which are quite difficult to see on the picture. The second unit is still to...

  • I have finished building the treekin, two units of three ready for some paint. Not the best photos I’m afraid, but you can see the basic construction work. One unit is loosely based on oak trees, short and solid. The other unit is more slender, not as weedy as birch...

  • I spent a spare afternoon over the weekend taking photos of my Wood Elves. I have decided to play them for a little while, just to get a complete break from the grindfest infantry armies like my chaos warriors and dwarfs. The elves were painted a couple of years ago,...

  • Recently, I have been commission painting some High Elves in an Avelorn theme. It made me think back to my own elf army, started a couple of years back. At that time I had put it on hold because I was unsure how the army would play under 8th edition,...

  • So, I suppose I'm a little bit like Sinsynn in that if I do play a Tabletop wargame, I am immediately attracted to play as an elven faction (In his case, he sometimes goes a tad overboard with his xenos love, but it is something I deeply respect him for)....

  • Not quite in time to be a pre-order review, since according to the GW site these are now available. I don’t know why I put these off anymore, since the hubbub over Dark Eldar releases is pretty nonexistant now, so I don’t have to worry about competing on this headline....
