Welcome back to Mini of the Week, where every Friday I will find a miniature from around the web that exemplifies an aspect of our hobby and share it with you.

Mini of the Year Voting

Every Friday I have my Mini of the Week post, where I find a mini from around the web that I think stands out as exemplary or just catches my eye. 2015 was the first full year of this feature, and to celebrate it today I have the first Mini of the Year contest! You, the viewer, get to pick your favorite mini from this past year and see if it can win out as the top mini from 2015.

TUTORIAL: Two Tone Feathers

While I'm painting models I come across random little techniques that aren't used very often. With my Carrion I had decided to create a two-tone feather once I decided the black on its own was to plain and boring. This technique is a great looking, and quick way to add something characterful to any model with feathers.

REVIEW: Seraphon Battletome

The Seraphon, or as we used to know them as, the Lizardmen, are the first returning race in Age of Sigmar. Everything up to this point had been entirely new, or mostly new factions, but now we had true survivors of the World-That-Was. So how were they handled and how do they fit into the new Mortal Realms?

GALLERY: Tomb Kings Carrion

I've had these models for awhile now, having picked up some old metal ones off of eBay. I had been continuously putting them off since they didn't seem like they would be the most fun to paint. With the AoS Singles Tournament at Adepticon looming though, it finally gave me the motivation I needed to get these guys finished.

REVIEW: The Lords of Helstone

The first Age of Sigmar audio series continues with its third installment, The Lord of Helstone. The first two audio dramas dealing with Lord-Celestant Taursus' search for Nagash in the Realm of Death were great, so how does the second to last one fare?

Age of Sigmar: Vital Objectives Rule Set

It's been awhile, but the sands of the Endless Desert beckon once more. Today I have the next installment of my unofficial Age of Sigmar rules supplement, Vital Objectives. This provides you a dynamic and fun new way to play your games of AoS.

2015: A Year in Review

2015 has come and gone and there have been quite a few big moments in our hobby during the year. This has also been the first full year of Mengel Miniatures doing three posts a week, my first "real" year of being a fully functioning hobby site. With that in mind I took a look back at the top 15 posts from 2015!

REVIEW: Khorne Bloodbound Battletome

The Khorne Bloodbound Battletome presents us with an interesting look at how AoS will be handled going forward. It is the first book to deal with a familiar faction, but spin it in a new way for the Mortal Realms. So how do Khorne's favored fare in their new book?
