My eclectic band of a Dwarven necromancer and his band of zombies, skeletons, and evil hirelings continues to grow. The number has grown well beyond the figure limit of ten for Frostgrave, but when I see an opportunity for a…
When I saw the three-legged spindle drones from 40k’s Blackstone Fortress set, I knew I had to create a cool science fantasy styled warband for Frostgrave using them as my “hounds.” In finding Warmachine’s art deco-themed Convergence of Cyriss faction,…

Initial painting efforts have begun on the the first order from Microworld’s 6mm Renaissance line. I’m impressed at the level of detail the sculptor and caster have managed to capture at such a small size. They are hardly the grains of rice…
