About this blog

A blog about my miniatures and some of my work related with building, painting, converting and so on.

Occasionally posts might also refer to writing and other topics which have an indirect link with the hobby.

Cornelivs Maximvs

A look on 2022, the current status of 2023 and some plans for the future

While the years before 2022 were mostly focused on building a lot and doing a little bit of painting, in 2022 I focused much of my hobby time on painting stuff. In part it was due to changes in my professional and personal life, as I finally got the chance of working remotely rather than having to change city (or country) every few years and the stability of staying in one place along with my collection made things much easier. Even though the work related change only happened mid of the

Cornelivs Maximvs Allies - Dwarves (count as Astra Militarum)

In the Cornelivs Maximvs books that I have written the dwarves are mentioned as being allied to the imperial forces, so as part of my attempt to build forces that represent my books, I have built and painted some Einherjar from Wargames Atlantic to represent them. In addition, the dwarves have a somewhat symbiotic relationship with a species of sentient giant spiders and they often fight side by side, so I got some of the dwarves to be mounted on giant spiders (also from Wargames Atlantic) for r

Regiments of Abistrev

Surrounded by interdimensional space storms for many centuries, the system of Abistrev was completely isolated from the rest of the Empire and thus deviated from the organization of the forces from the nearby systems. Knowing the storms would end one day, the Abistrevians trained hard, creating powerful and disciplined regiments, well prepared for defensive roles, especially when garrisoning fortifications like the large city-bunkers where most of their population lived. After the defeat

Regiments of Aidaca

A warm and overpopulated planet, Aidaca is the origin of some of the most well disciplined regiments in the region. Their loyalty makes them well suited to garrison all sorts of important locations, including centres of industry and other locations of value. Used to living in places with high temperatures, the regiments of Aidaca are commonly seen wearing long coats over their armour, in order to help them endure the colder temperatures of the majority of the imperial colonies. Although they are

From books to miniatures part 2

While the miniature version of the forces under Cornelivs is significantly smaller in number than what is in the books, it is still a relatively large collection of figures, so I was able to represent different sub forces within those fighting at his side. Today I will focus mostly on the warriors that were originally part of the militias defending some of the worlds where Cornelivs went to destroy the alien cults that were undermining the local populations. The basic look for the mili

From books to miniatures and vice-versa

Beyond my love for reading and writing, I like to build and paint miniatures, mostly 28mm scale models. Over the years, as I wrote the story of Cornelivs Maximvs I kept acquiring and building miniatures to represent some of the groups in books and some physical models actually influenced the characters in the books. The army started with a small set of miniatures from Games Workshop that I decided to use to represent the miners from Airom, Septimus and also some of the gangsters from Rolauq
