War and Death in the Age of Sigmar

Last weekend I had my first taste of Age of Sigmar. I brought to the battlefield my freshly assembled Stormcast Eternal, in all their plastic-color glory. Things got real fast!

Playtest - Thunderdome

Another post that stayed in the draft too long, one of the last game I played before leaving for NOVA.

In another round of playtesting for nova - and most other tournaments as well as this is a popular build - My buddy Arno played a variant of the TWC star.

NOVA GT Armies and Capital Palette Entries!

Pictures of the GT armies that made 1st cut. If you scroll down, I took a bunch of shots of some of the 40K related models entered in the Capital Palette Painting Competition.

NOVA in pictures!

Better late than never as they say, here are a few pictures from NOVA Open!

Invitational Round one. Brad on the left, yours truly to the right. A still sober Nick Nanavati battling it out with Jared in the background. Hit the jump for all the pictures and all the glory!

My Nova Open 2015

I didn’t have time to upload my usual tournament primer- the articles just before I go to tournaments where I share my hopes and dreams- before attending the Nova Open. Rest assured, this did not jinx my tournament going experience - I had a blast! Read on for Glory!

Hammers, Gold and Sigmar

Viewers familiar with my Instagram ( @HELLFIREPAINTING ) will know by now that I'm in an Age of Sigmar frenzy, assembling 3 starter set boxes of the lovely angels.

This is so I can play my first few games hungover this saturday at the LGS tournament. More to come, as I have 4 boxes of content to paint, let alone assemble the Khorne side of things!
