I have been fiddling round with different ways to photograph my minis. I decided to take photos of two of my peasants on a piece of black perspex. I quite like the effect. Minis are available from Rapier miniatures – although the burning torch is a bit longer in this […]
So – I finally got some of my peasants back in metal. This guy is my second sculpt ever – and my first human. He isn’t a happy bunny…. life as a peasant is obviously hard. I painted him in washed-out colours like I would for a dark ages miniatures. […]
When I sit down to sculpt or paint I am often joined by my seven-year-old son. Here is a slug monster that he sculpted and painted. Yes, I am a very proud dad! This slug will be terrorising some villagers in a game soon! Advanced Song of Blades and Heroes […]

The Red Mage doesn’t live in the territory of Highstone. He is one of those called outsiders or fragmen… Not only the impoverished, outcast, desperate and mad find their way into the endless forest – magic seems intenser the deeper into it you go, and therefore those interested in sorcerous […]
The threats of the forest areas of the world in which Highstone is situated are in many ways unlimited. Myths, fairy tales, monsters, nightmares… they all dwell there. From the benign to the outright hostile, from harmless sprites to the great powers whose names are whispered on dark nights… Baba […]
