Banditry!

Hello good folk! I’m back with new hobby related things again! This time around, we will revisit feudal Japan in Test of Honour, with some rather nefarious characters I might add! Just one point to add, to use these with the ‘right’ cards, you need to purchase the enemy forces card expansion separately, as thisContinue reading “Banditry!”

Sohei temple guards

Hello and welcome back! Today we finish the Sohei faction troops from the Temple guard box from Grey for now games. This box come packed with bodies to make: The models are Metal, so not much that can be made in terms of equipment or poses. These sculpts are fantastic! The swords are of courseContinue reading “Sohei temple guards”

The Temple Monks

Hey all and welcome back! As I promised, I have expanded on the forces for Test of Honour. This time I have painted the Warlord of Ehrewon box of Sohei Warrior with Naginatas. Interestingly I don’t seem to find them anymore on Warlords homepages, I really hope that they haven’t discontinued the models, as theseContinue reading “The Temple Monks”

Expanding the basic forces

Hey all! Been working on expanding my basic forces, as I feel that I needed some more basic ashigaru troops. This also helps me get through some of the sprues I still have laying around from my first purchase. I really gotta say that Warlords samurai army really is a great bang for your buckContinue reading “Expanding the basic forces”

Sneaky stabby bois

More miniatures painted! Continuing with the Test of Honour game, we have some ninjas to look at. These are the Warlords of Erehwon ninjas, coming with 10 ninjas in the box. The interesting thing with the ninjas is that they are counted to be armed 2 swords, and have throwing weapons to shoot with. TheyContinue reading “Sneaky stabby bois”

Palate clense with swords

The last few models (58 of them!) have been scifi themed, and I thought I’d switch it up a bit. As you all know I also play the game Test of honour (try to at least, trouble to find opponents and time to), a skirmish style wargame set in Snegoku jidai eraof Japan. That meansContinue reading “Palate clense with swords”

Test of honour: Unarmoured Samurai

Hello and welcome back! As the header suggests, this post is related to unarmoured samurai. I finally had time to complete a tabletop standard paintjob to the unarmored samurai included as a bonus in the second edition Test Of Honour Box. In my opinion this is a phenomenal sculpt, as I feel it really conveysContinue reading “Test of honour: Unarmoured Samurai”

Test of Honour: away from the hobby room

Hello and welcome back dear reader! This week I had some time off work (1 week of overtime in 3 weeks of work really warrants some time off..) and me and my SO decided to visit my family’s summer cottage in the Finnish Archipelago. This of course threw a wrench in the hobby time IContinue reading “Test of Honour: away from the hobby room”
