So thought I would take a couple of hours out to build this old WW2 Howitzer for the Black Museum Desparadoes... Only 9 Hours later!

Rebel Guard of the Black Museum Desparadoes

Using a mixture of Cadian battleforce, Forgeworld renegade bodies, Pig Iron heads and backpacks, The Gasmasks from Maxmini.  The Miners of the Black Museum come to life on the battlefield. Dealing with Xeno and Unbeliever with the same unyeilding force. Just lucky they dug up all that old Plasma technology... Now if they can only keep it from Blowing up.

Sounds Like War

From the dawn of time, armies have marched into battle to the sound of the drum.

Today we go one step further....

Spotify Playlist - 'Music To Battle To'

(warning: included lethal sound effects- and Namby Pamby Ponsy music for the Eldar);

Gas Masks skulls and 40k keeps the doctor away.

How do you keep a bunch of unruly militant miners in check?

Black Museum Desperadoes

Putting together a Renegade imperial guard group. A mining colony that discovered an ancient underground city. Empowered them with the words from a book written a multiverse away about how the Empire came to pass. They fight to tell the truth that they discovered and how man lives enslaved by Emperor himself, they believe they have been told of a better way.



All the defenses of the planet were ravaged by a nasty bit of Zombitus. Instead of Conscripts the Black Museum Desperados have Zombies that they herd towards the enemy.

Welcome to a whole world of geek

I got a new camera, making even the most shoddily painted figures look badass.Got a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 bought an extra copycat battery as well. Be warned they no don't work as Panasonic has updated their software to scupper them. Means you have to pay £40 for an extra battery... Grrr but spent fortunes on stupid tanks anyway.
