Well, here we are. We made it – everything is in the shop now and we have lots of things cooking between here and Christmas. It’s been a tough couple of years for everybody, but while the world has been sleeping we have been busy. We officially started up last September, but have been taking our time to get things right, messed around with a few things to see how we could do them better, or if not better, cheaper and more affordable.

Here are quality modelling products and figures, at decent prices. Some are even our own brand. Our resident Paint Pixie, Charlie has spent the last few months getting our range of technical paints, glazes and terrain materials ready with her assistant Lurch in the backroom. We’re chuffed to bits with the results, and we hope you will be too. And we’ll be adding to our already growing range as we go along.

Please follow our blog, spend a bit of time on the site if you like – we stock all the staples, from tools and materials, to finecast resin figure brands, somewhat lesser known than the Games Workshop range which we don’t stock. Why? Well, it would be a Busman’s Holiday for us. We love their stuff, it’s partly why some of us got into wargaming and modelling in the first place. Our ranges are deliberately geared towards the heroic scale of figures, so we consider the GW pantheon to be the benchmark. And to that end we’re amiably running parallel to that, with products that both add to and equal GW in range, quality and value.

So in short, we like to offer alternatives to the Plastic Crack brigade. We have sourced some fantastic brands, the indy ranges that are of beautiful quality, can be played on the table and painted the same way in their own right, or even played and integrated into GW armies either as a kitbash or as a dispossessed army in its own right. That might be controversial in some circles, but hell, that’s the way we roll. All are welcome.

So, that’s who we are. We live, we’re on social media in the usual fun places (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram), and you can subscribe to our emails for details and updates of what we’re up to, what’s new and sometimes, the odd blog from us if we find or try something worth sharing. So enjoy, sit down, have a cuppa, browse…and welcome aboard!
