    The Dwarf Runner – The Bearded Bullet of the Blood Bowl Pitch

    Ah, pull up a stool and grab a flagon of Bugman’s XXXXXX, dear reader! Today, we’re descending into the subterranean world of the Dwarf Faction in Blood Bowl. Specifically, we’re looking at a position that is as essential to a Dwarf team as beard wax is to a Longbeard: the Dwarf Runner (or as many old-school coaches still call them, the “Dwarf Catcher”). Now, I know what you’re thinking. “A Dwarf catching things? Isn’t that like asking a brick to perform a ballet?” Well, you’re not entirely wrong. But in the wacky, high-stakes world of Nuffle’s favorite sport, the Runner is a marvel of engineering, stubbornness, and surprisingly nimble fingers.…

    Weekly Waffle #418 – Pocket Rockets and Gridiron Grudges

    2nd May 2026 The Mojo I’ve had another good week again this week even though I’ve been really busy at work so hobby time has been limited. I’ve been cracking on with Blood Bowl and have another couple of minis finished off. I’ve also spent quite a bit of time on the train this week and I’ve been working ideas for a couple of future projects. One is more on the kit bash side of the house with a new Gang for Necromunda and the other is a new colour scheme for an existing Necromunda gang. For the new gang I’m going to have to track down some bits for…

    Weekly Waffle #417 – Blood Bowl’s Mohawked Missile of Mayhem

    25th April 2026 The Mojo I’ve had another good week on the hobby front. Progress has been slow but steady and I’ve really enjoyed my hobby time. On a none hobby front I’m love bike racing, the pedal powered version. And this week they announced the Tour De France Feemi will be coming to the UK for a stage between Manchester and Sheffield. Both are cities I work in on a regular basis and the announcement was done right opposite our Manchester office. Which as something is a surprise. But a very nice one. On The Work Bench I’ve been cracking on with my blood bowl dwarves this week and…

  • Six painted dwarf miniatures in blue armor stand in a row on grassy bases, with name banners reading Underbraid, Grim Tornjaw, Uli Underfoot, Trogan Alebrew, Train Thrice-Cursed, and Barik Farblast visible on the bases.

    Weekly Waffle #416 – The Grumpy, Unmovable Meatloaf

    18th April 2026 The Mojo: Welcome back to this week’s weekly waffle and amongst this weeks updates I am also trying out a little bit of a change to the flow of waffle. Trying to add a little bit of structure to help me keep things on track. But don’t worry it’s not a wholesale change to the content. Just trying to break things down into sections so that it’s easier to read, easier to find things, and easier for me not to forget things. It’s been a good week this week even though I haven’t actually got a lot completed. Lots of travel for work has given me some…

    Josef Bugman the Coach

    In the ever-evolving saga of Blood Bowl, where grit, strategy, and a touch of chaos reign supreme, the Gritty Grumps have carved out a niche as the hard-nosed dwarven team that never backs down from a challenge. Known for their steadfastness and unyielding spirit, they have now taken a monumental step forward with the addition of a legendary figure: Josef Bugman, the famed brewer, and the shrewd tactician, Coach. He brings a wealth of experience and expertise that promises to elevate the Gritty Grumps to new heights. Let’s explore the lore surrounding this remarkable addition, his roles within the team, and how his presence will reshape the Gritty Grumps’ strategy…

    Weekly Waffle #407 –  The Year of the Brush: A 2025 Weekly Waffle Retrospective

    Weekly Waffle #407 –  The Year of the Brush: A 2025 Weekly Waffle Retrospective 10th January 2026 Welcome to 2026 and for this week’s TerminatorTids weekly waffle I am going to start the year off with a wrap up of 2025. It’s been a year of soaring highs, questionable paint choices, and a fair bit of “waffling” about everything from the price of plastic to the best way to paint a bird of prey. If 2024 was about finding the mojo, 2025 was the year I allowed it to trickle out across the pitch, the tabletop, and even the skatepark. Pull up a chair, grab a brew, and let’s dive…

  • Blood Bowl Referee's

    Weekly Waffle #401 –  Whistle Warriors

    Weekly Waffle #401 –  Whistle Warriors 15th November 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I have returned to the world of Blood Bowl. But this time I’ve gone for people on the pitch that everyone loves to hate. That’s right, if you’re a rugby player you will call them sir. If your football player you will call them something I’m not willing to repeat here on a Saturday morning. Which can only mean it’s time to bring out the referee. I had really enjoyed painting the halflings and I brought that sense of fun into this project. From a colour perspective I just went with the box art as my…

  • Blood Bowl Halfling, Cucumber Soakers

    Weekly Waffle #400 – The Cucumber Soakers

    Weekly Waffle #400 – The Cucumber Soakers 8th November 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I’ve finalised this round of sporting excellence by bringing all of the Halflings together as a team for you. It’s been a fun few week’s painting these guys up and brining you some details about the different positions within the team. But now it’s time to bring them all together for a final review. There are some more spaces in the roster that I want to fill over the coming week’s or months but it’s go spot to wrap up this stage of the project. The next bits will take the form of some Treemen…
