Becasue I don’t have enough to do I’m starting a new blog about painting my Kings of War Undead army from the Mantic Kickstarter here:

Check it out if your square base curious.
And yes I bought them last year before I started my clean slate challenge 🙂
Those of you who have read my blog before will know that the one exception to my spending rule is Salute.
Salute is the biggest tabletop wargaming event in Europe, and a must attend event for everyone interested in any aspect of this hobby.
Go and check out there site, and start planning your purchases and which games you will try out on the day:

See you there April 20th. 🙂
Sometimes I am really glad I’m doing my Clean Slate Challenge, and other times…
if you were not aware of Mantic Games you should be! These guys produce a great range of games and miniatures at fantastic prices. Mantic provide you with a cost-effective alternative to other miniature ranges, and allow you to filed much larger armies for your budget.
I’m glad to say I have a large Forgefathers force (one day I will post some pictures of theses guys), and have some Mantic models on ‘The List’.
I took part in their Kickstarter project for Kings of War, their fantasy tabletop game, so I have loads of Fantasy models to paint as well. I went for an Undead army as I already have an Undead warband for Mordheim, so it felt natural to build on these existing models, even if they were small in number.
In fact it was the arrival of the massive box of Kickstarter models for Kings of War that made me start this challenge in the first place. I really want to start painting these models, but I had so many models already waiting to be blessed by my paint brush I needed to finish my list. Then I could spend the time to paint this new army properly, and not rush them, which is what they deserve.
Any hoo! The reason I’m posting this is that they have another amazing deal at Mantic, their Crazy Christmas Box which costs £25 for a mass of stuff. This is the equivalent of a 70% saving on the RRP, not something you see very often on miniatures.

If you are looking to get some one started in the hobby, looking for a Christmas gift, boost your bits box, collect some interesting models, add to an existing force, get some allies or whatever this is an amazing deal.
But I can’t buy it 😦
Sometimes I hate this Clean Slate Challenge!
