I’m so, so pleased that I acted on the motivation to fire up the Design Night stream last Friday, it was really nice to jump back into Sketchup (yes, I know, it’s old and there are so many other good options) and play around. If you didn’t catch the stream, you can check it out […]
I was just going to ignore the fact that it’s now after 9:30pm and just skip today’s article, but NO! Here I am, be committed Viv! I’m not entirely sure what to write about today so this will probably just be one of those “stream of consciousness” type of posts, something to fill in the time […]
Before we jump into todays article I really need to say that I am really enjoying writing these articles. After the first few days I was really struggling, I just didn’t know what to write about, I didn’t know how long it would take me to write an article and I was often leaving them […]
This article is a little odd, it’s not as much about terrain as it is about terrain … well, terrain reference and inspiration. I started wargaming just as the internet was becoming ‘a thing’, well something more than the rudimentary bulletin boards of the early nineties. A lot of my inspiration was from magazines and […]
I’ve had so many people over the years use the Tabula Rasa: Desert Building kits on their Italian tables.

Is the ‘back’ side of your MDF kit badly blackened, charred or burnt? This can happen on kits available from Knights of Dice or any other provider of laser cut MDF model kits. The short answer? The laser bed of the machine that kit was produced on needed a good clean! I wish I had […]
I need to start todays article off with a massive thank you to Jack Glanfield. He’s been a MASSIVE supporter of Knights of Dice from the very beginning, he’s ordered directly from us many times and also from Shiny Games in Nottingham, his support has been legendary and today’s article has been inspired by some […]
I’ve got nothing, hehe. I’m feeling pretty grim (mentally) and I just can’t …. I can’t. A comment on my previous article post on Facebook said: “Written before midnight? Check. Showcases KoD? Check. That’s all you really need.” Thanks Dirk, that was actually a BIG help. I’ve said it many times lately, my mental health […]
I think I’m going to have to make time to write my articles during the day, I did think about it today but did nothing about it. Writing them in the evenings is not fantastic, especially when it hits 10:46pm and I realise I haven’t written anything today! Either that, or I implement some kind […]
