Age of Sigmar – Kruleboyz Swampcalla Shaman with Pot-grot

In issue 09 of the Stormbringer subscription, we get one of the first characters for the Kruleboyz, a Swampcalla Shaman with Pot-grot.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar Stormbringer Issue 09

This miniature was initially released as part of the Age of Sigmar Dominion boxed set (the 3rd edition starter set from 2021), just like the Lord Imperarant, and now is available through the Stormbringer magazine for 10,99 EUR or from Games Workshop directly for 32,50 EUR.

Both miniatures fit inside a single sprue, and are currently the only regular sculpts for this unit on foot (the other one being the named character Gobsprakk on Killabeak, and Mugruk da Watcha, which was a 2022 event exclusive).

Intermodellbau 2025 Part 1

Last week, from Thursday to Sunday, the Intermodellbau in Dortmund was held. The World's largest trade fair for model building & model sports.

Intermodellbau Dortmund 2025

The Intermodellbau is a show, that covers various aspects of the model building hobby, from RC cars to model trains, model kits build from paper, plastic or metal, in all different scales from z-scale to full-scale replicas. It is not a wargaming event but due to the proximity with building models and painting them, we want to give it a try and show you our event coverage on here.

The venue, the trade halls and Westfalenhalle (often used for concerts and other cultural events), are located next to the football stadium Westfalenstadion (home of Borussia Dortmund) and the ice sport centre, and sport a large area for parking as well a good connection towards the highway. The show itself spreads out across six of the eight halls of the venue.

Intermodellbau 2025 Part 2

As we took more than 300 pictures of which over 100 made into the coverage on Intermodellbau 2025, we continue with part 2 here. We went through Halls 3 to 5, and now arrived with the big vehicles and trucks.

Hall 6 - Car model making & Large scale function model building

Once we entered hall 6, we saw an incredibly large display by IG Modellgiganten Stephan Grabs, where huge RC models in 1:8 scale were shown and a great highlight, especially for our youngest, was the chance to take a ride in one of these. A huge thank you to the hosts for this stunning exhibit.

Deth Wizards – The Stitcher’s Warband Pt 1

I have prepared my Undead Warband (which needs a better project name) for Deth Wizards, and now we can start painting.

The primer was touched up with P3 Thamar Black and the miniatures (with the exception of the Skeletons) got a quick drybrush with Army Painter Matt White.

Deth Wizards - Undead Warband Pt 1 Deth Wizards - Undead Warband Pt 1

To get started, or better said in preparation, I made a moodboard with pictures of the painted miniatures, as an orientation where I wanted to go. I usually put them on my smartphone or tablet, so I can look them up while painting, zoom-in and such. I think this is practical.

Deth Wizards – More Scatter terrain

Busy days ahead! My vacation started yesterday and I have already applied some base paints on the buildings (I'll show the progress in a post of its own). But we're still missing some more scatter, so I went back and pushed some resin through the 3d printer. And after a few days, I had this nice assortment of bits and bobs.

We have some pre-designed barricades and smaller items to build these myself.

Age of Sigmar – Stormcast Eternals Gardus Steel Soul

We're doing smaller unboxings and reviews along the line of the Stormbringer subscription. Back in the shipment with issue 14 to 19, we got the 2021 Stormcast Eternal Character of Gardus Steel Soul.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar Stormbringer Issue 19 Warhammer Age of Sigmar Stormbringer Issue 19 - Stormcast Eternals Gardus Steel Soul

The miniature as part of the magazine series is a proper steal, as the regular price is 34 EUR and it is currently more or less Mail-Order exclusive, so not much you can do about a discount. But at 10,99 EUR it is very solid.

Gardus Steel Soul is a Lord-Celestant of the Hallowed Knights Stormhost, and their silver and blue armours provide a bit of variation to the poster boys of the Hammers of Sigmar. The artwork you can see on the cover of the magazine comes from the Black Library novel Hallowed Knights: Black Pyramid.

Stargrave – Even more Sci-Fi goodies

As Miniaturicum is a not only distributor but very often on board with the Nickstarters, I had the chance to pledge to the starter and get some freebies, along with a few blister packs for review purposes to show you. This was a while back and simply got swamped in the backlog, but here it is.

  • SGV101 Biomorphs
  • SGV115 Veterans
  • SGV205 Specialist Soldier Medics
  • SGV201 Specialist Soldiers Hacker / Codebreaker
  • some loots from the first Nickstarter - Loot markers, D20 and a Rogue

Stargrave - Even more Sci-Fi goodies Stargrave - Even more Sci-Fi goodies

The miniatures are cast in metal and usually single pieces. They do not have tabs or small "hills" on their feet, but are "barefoot", so you can freely put them on the bases you intend. Each blister comes with a matching number of 25mm round bases by Renedra, and each pack is 7 GBP (around 8,50 EUR on the European market).

March 2025 review

A quarter of 2025 is over. Lets do a recap.

Asmodee Germany sent me these boxes for Marvel Crisis Protocol and Star Wars Shatterpoint. During Adepticon they gave a great update on the roadmap for the two games (have to be honest, the X-Men starter caught my eye), as well as the Outer Rim Outpost terrain kit for Shatterpoint, along with Star Wars Legions (with the strategic token set coming in 2026...).
