Ltd Ed Flint from Guild Ball - A Closer Look

Welcome to another exciting edition of A Closer Look. This week we return to the Guild Ball pitch with the 2016 Limited Edition Flint, who plays for the Masons.


Project Fishermen: Part 5


Not as much progress as I might have liked this week, but I still finished something, let's take a look!

Fillet from Guild Ball - A Closer Look

Welcome to a new style of post from us here at Noobs and their Paintbrush. We like our unboxings here, but sometimes, while the minis are awesome, they just don't quite justify a full, in depth unboxing. With that in mind, you might start to see posts like this one popping up occasionally - just a collection of shots of miniatures we particularly like, straight out the packaging. A closer look, if you will ;)

First up is Fillet, the new Butcher's Guild Captain from Guild Ball.

Project Fishermen: Part 1




I picked up a few bits for the Fisherman Guild (Guildball) at Salute last weekend, and the paint is going on very easily! Let's take a look..

Vapnartak Show 2016 - My First Wargames Show!

Having not long returned from my first wargaming show - Vapnartak - in York, I thought I'd share the pictures I took, along with any thoughts that occur to me while I meander through this. This may be quite a heavy post, as I'm leaving the pictures full size when they upload to hopefully give the best level of detail.

A Black Heart for a Good Cause - Blackheart from Guild Ball

I've mentioned it a couple of times but for the past 6 weeks or so, I've been painting up the limited edition Blackheart from Guild Ball for the Tales of a Tabletop Skirmisher fundraiser - Little Heroes for Little Heroes.


It's taken a while, but the Captain of The Union is finally done.

Cataloging the Collection

This time last month, I detailed my collection of miniatures, which has since been added to. I know most of what I've got in my collection but I thought it would be useful to have a system to identify my painting progress with them.

With that in mind, I've started building a spreadsheet.

The Collection - A Tale of Resin, Metal and "Ooh, Shiny"

I've gained a reputation in some forums for having what some call "an addiction". I just like to think of it as I collect miniatures. I was recently challenged to take pictures of everything I've acquired. To narrow this down, I've gone just for the pictures of things that are either Work In Progress, Built or Still Boxed - Nothing finished at all.


Basius 2 From Wargames Bakery - Getting Started and the Projects to Come

They're here at last! Earlier this week I got to experience the rush that you get when you find a box of Kickstarter goodies waiting for you. In this instance, it was two large resin squares from Wargames Bakery. Well actually, it was two of their new Basius 2 basing mold pads from their Kickstarter that was run between September and October last year. After a few delays, they were all delivered to Mantic last week, and shipped out this week. 



Flask, Mascot for The Alchemist's Guild - Guild Ball

After painting a ball earlier in the month, I finally got my first proper Guild Ball mini painted - Flask from the Alchemist's Guild.


Guild Ball - One down, many to go

It's taken a while, but I finally have the first item from my Guild Ball Kickstarter box finished - a ball!


Guild Ball Tokens Go Up For Pre-Order

First they released what is shaping up to be a really awesome game with some cracking models. Then they decided that we needed gaming mats with which to play the game so Crowdfunded them. Now the team at Guild Ball have joined forces with Frozen Forge to put out a host of Tokens and Templates for Pre-Order so we will have everything we would need to play Guild Ball!

Guild Ball Kickstarter Unboxing - Part 4: Morticians and The Union

This week has flown by! We find ourselves with just two teams left to unbox, so there isn't any point delaying any further!



Guild Ball Kickstarter Unboxing - Part 2: Fishermen and Masons

Now we are at Wednesday in our Guild Ball week, let's finally get a look up close at some models!

Today, as the title indicates, we're going to be having a look at the Fisherman's Guild and the Mason's Guild.


Guild Ball Kickstarter Unboxing - Part 1

Welcome to Guild Ball Week! This little series will run (cunningly) until the end of the working week, and detail everything that turned up in my Guild Ball Kickstarter reward box.


For those that haven't heard of it, Guild Ball is a new medieval based skirmish ball game made by Steamforged Games. Gamers take control of one of several Guilds, ranging from Masons to Morticians, Brewers to Butchers, with the goal of either scoring more goals than your opponent or leaving them in such a shape that they are unable to do the same to you.
