Model Spotlight – The Kaigus Pact Troops Sprue!

The arrival of the Maelstrom’s Edge V2 rulebook was accompanied by the addition of an all new faction to the game – the Kaigus Pact! We’re all very excited about them as the Kaigus Pact are very different to the other models we’ve released so far, with their alien appearance and organic approach to technology. I took a closer look the new Kaigus Pact Troops sprue over on the Comm Guild blog.

Terrain Spotlight: Drone Substation Quick-paint.

I was rummaging through some storage boxes the other day and came across a building that I had assembled a very long time ago and never got around to finishing. And since it has once again been a little while since I played with terrain, that seemed like as good a reason as any to take some time to get some paint on it!

Terrain Spotlight: Tissue Box Building

The big joy of the Maelstrom’s Edge terrain sprue, for me, is that wandering around the house turns up an endless wealth of items just waiting to be turned into wargaming scenery by slapping some bits on it and painting it up. This week, I turned my attention to the recycling bin, where a humble tissue box was just calling out to be saved from the weekly rubbish collection. With a little cutting and gluing, and a lick of paint, I had Atmospheric Modification Plant #14 ready for the table!

Painting Spotlight: Colorshift Shadow Walker

A few articles back, I painted up a Mature Angel using Colorshift paints, as a bit of an experiment. That was actually the second model I attempted with these paints, but I hadn’t been entirely happy with the first one. This week, I had a little inspiration though, and so I dug him out and, with a final tweak to his face, wound up with a shiny green/blue Shadow Walker!
