Winter break

Hey everyone! Over winter break I was slightly hard pressed for time due to work and other fun things. However I did not let that slow me down and was able to work on my skills as a painter. I am notorious for starting and stopping projects to work on different techniques or ideas that… Read More Winter break

PARTIBUUUUUUUUUUS

With Adepticon coming up, Andrew and I have been working on the Partiboys for a while now for the Bolt Action Doubles tournament. He’s posted some great progress on the infantry for WIP Wednesday but more work needs to be done. As part of the creation of the Partiboys, we discussed how we were going… Read More PARTIBUUUUUUUUUUS

Eversor Assassin

Another entry, another completed Imperial assassin. With the release of the Imperial Agents codex there is now a convenient single source for the Assassins, as well as providing a player like me who doesn’t have an extended history of 40k with the Inquisition material. After getting a few games in with the Culexus I realized… Read More Eversor Assassin

You can’t stop the parti

In the three weeks since my last WIP Wednesday there has been serious hobby progress on the Partiboys. Not only are 24 models finished (besides basing) but both Rubicon Opel Blitz trucks have been built (one still needs an MG gunner), 52 more Partiboys have been built and primed and the list has been refined… Read More You can’t stop the parti

Sylvaneth (Start Collecting box)

Hey everyone, I am very excited to be a part of the Chicago Dice team! For my WIP I am currently working on my Start Collecting! box of Sylvaneth.

WIP Wednesday – Partiboys and US Airborne

The past couple weeks haven’t seen a ton of painting or hobbying from me. I’ve been starting up on the Partisans, but definitely lagging behind Andrew, who has been working like a madman! I have a lot of free time coming up in the next week or two though so I should be able to… Read More WIP Wednesday – Partiboys and US Airborne

WIP Wednesday – Enter the Partiboys

For Bolt Action Doubles at Adepticon 2017 Ben and I will be running a never-before-seen-team: The Partiboys. What exactly are the Partiboys? Well, simply put, the Partiboys are the hardest hitting, filthiest, most WAC army on the Bolt Action tournament scene. Or not. Partiboys is the affectionate name Ben and I have given our Partisan… Read More WIP Wednesday – Enter the Partiboys

WIP Wednesday – Death Korps and Assassins

Unfortunately I have been pretty busy so I knew that I needed to really manage my time to get much done this month. I kept focused on two projects – continuing to get my DKK up in to shape, and painting a single Culexus Assassin. Airbrushing lends itself really well to doing vehicles, and so… Read More WIP Wednesday – Death Korps and Assassins

WIP Wednesday- American armor and planning the Partiboys

Not a huge update this week for me. We received our kits from the Trenchworx Kickstarter campaign last week, from which I received a pair of M18 Hellcat tank destroyers. I reviewed the kits in an article on Sunday. I’ve got a tank-hunter bundle on the way from Warlord in which I’ll be getting a pair… Read More WIP Wednesday- American armor and planning the Partiboys

The next three Bolt Action releases. Any guesses for Q1 2027? Armies of the Allies? China? A massive Partisan book?? New Painting Guide up on the site (link in bio) - colors used and steps for the lovely BEF from @wargamesatlantic. Big shout-out to @sonicsledgehammer and @chrishindmarsh for the inspiration! Handful of photos from the 4 Star Open 2025 - The Final Star hosted at the world-famous @dicedojo in Chicago.
