The Speed Painting Demon behind StormFront Studios, Ben used to be a GW Manager, but don't let that fool you, he's secretly an okay guy. He enjoys painting models, rolling dice, cheating fate, and cackling madly when he thinks nobody is listening.

A Quick Note
Just a quick note regarding a comment I had through Facebook a few moments ago.
Please don't be put off by an article being called "How I Paint..." - there's more to them than just the painting information :P
And now, here's another Dreadfleet based picture. Why? Because I can.
The Swordfysh - Aranessa Saltspite's Ship
Dreadfleet
Blue Orks and Zombie Pi-Rats
The Scabrous
The model above is the Scabrous, my favourite ship from 'Dreadfleet'. I'm constantly being told that Dreadfleet was a flop, too expensive, a crap game... or that the Scabrous is the worst ship of the bunch.
I don't care. I loved Dreadfleet, I still do. I think it's magical and awesome and if you don't like it, then you must have squigs instead of brains. As for the Scabrous, what's not to love about a gargantuan undead electro-whale infested with zombie pi-rats?!

#MiniatureMonday
I'm quite a big Twitter user. Certainly nowhere near the biggest, mind, but I enjoy tweeting and catching up with others. In my opinion, it's closer, friendlier than Facebook, due to things like hashtags joining the communities.

But what does all this have to do with anything? Why am I always excited every time Monday rolls around? Find out more after the jump.

How I Paint: Iron Warriors
Iron Warrior Chaos Space Marines
For the second "How I Paint" instalment I thought I'd continue the Chaos theme by talking about the Iron Warriors that I've added to my Word Bearer force. I know, Iron Warriors and Word Bearers, it's a little unusual, but I have my reasons.
Blood And Pestilence
Ok, so it's official, I'm jumping back on the Warriors of Chaos Bandwagon... Well, I'm not really bandwagon jumping if I already have an army of them, right?? I'm just taking an opportune moment to restart it, I guess...

How I Paint: Word Bearers
Well, here it is, the first of my little "How I Paint" tutorials; though I use the word 'tutorial' loosely, it's much more of a "This is how I did it", rather than a sit-you-down-and-show-you-how-it's-done kind of thing.

I'm also running under the assumption that you either have a copy of "How to Paint Citadel Miniatures" (preferable, and available here or at your local Games Workshop Hobby Centre), or are at least quite familiar with the terms used within this awesome tome of painting. More after the break!
Revisionary
Warhammer Forge - Event Exclusive "Skin Wolf"
I've been thinking about this blog a lot lately for several different reasons.
Firstly, a few of my regular friends and younger customers have often asked me for step-by-step guides (like in 'How to Paint Citadel Miniatures') for various different armies, especially, it seems, for ones I don't do. Yeah, go figure.
Secondly, the recent rise of Tom Fern's rather awesome Calth Burns blog.
