Jentastic's Drunken Brush Goop

I have been doing a bit of painting of late and came across something that I thought people may be interested in for cleaning their brushes.

It's called Jentastic's Drunken Brush Goop and supposedly it works really well at cleaning them.

Christmas 28mm Miniatures

For the last 10 or so years I have been collecting miniatures for a Christmas game that has yet to be played.  Earlier this month I scored a huge Chaos Dwarf army that was painted.  I got it for $250.  The cool part was the painted figures replaced all the unpainted Chaos Dwarfs I had collected over the years.  I was able to sell 5 lots of them on Ebay for $260, meaning I got a fantastic painted army for free. :-)

Now I am on the hunt for some Nutcracker figures that would work with all the other figures I have collected.

Clockwork Goblin Games | Konflikt 47

Clockwork Goblin Games will at some point resume their 15mm line of what is now 28mm for the game Konflikt 47.

The 15mm range will 'mirror' the 28mm range, so the newer, stronger designs will be shrunk back down to the 'correct' scale


Here is a sample shot of the 15mm vs 28mm scale.

Victorian Sci-Fi Wild Wild West Tank

In the search for all things Victorian Sci-Fi | Wild Wild West I came across a rather cool vehicle from the movie Wild Wild West called the Derailer Tank.

Here is an excellent conversion of the tank.

Konflikt 47 Resurgence


Just received the Konflikt 47 Resurgence Rule book.  Looks really nice.  They are introducing Japanese and Finish armies.

I don't have any of the 28mm figures, but I do own several of the Clockwork Goblin 15mm figures, which are essentially scaled down version of the 28s.



Here is a good review of the ruleset



Here are some of the upcoming Japanese units

Dystopian Wars Spartan Games Closes

With Spartan Games closing shop it is interesting seeing how much people are paying for their last Kickstarter figures.

$610 dollars for a figure set.  Really...really.  Obviously there is still demand for Dystopian Wars, at least  on Ebay.



If you are thinking about picking up a miniature line, Dystopian Wars might not be a bad move.  The figures are super cool, they have a ton of detail and look great.

I am actually surprised that Spartan Games couldn't pull this off.  I guess having so many different figures and such can take up a lot of resources.  Still I think if they had made a better ruleset for their figures, they would still be in business.

Gear Krieg

Back in 2013 Dream Pod 9 discontinued their weird war line called Gear Krieg.  It's a shame really, the vehicles had cool designs that oozed weird war, but IMO their pricing scheme, lack of variety and the fact that they were all metal just didn't appeal to many players who like doing plastic or resin conversions.  I never played the Gear Krieg rule system, but the artwork always looked pretty slick. 

The models fit in really well with Clockwork Goblin Miniatures, Battlefront - Flames of War and Forged In Battle.
