Painted a unit of Plague Monks and a Priest and Warpgrinder to accompany them.

Helping in the recovery and psych assessment of my Soviet Team Yankee commander who, after deciding to start an invasion of West Germany, found him being chased out of Moscow by Germans...

Suffice it to say mistakes were made, lessons will be learnt and its time to draw a line under this and move on...

I'm painting up my first squad of celestial Lion primrus marines. Very excited and very nervous too.

I am sorting through sprues, trying to make sense of what i can use and what i should just toss.

it is a perilous task.

Embedding some magnets into square bases so I can use my round based daemons as heroes in KoW.

About to Undercoat a bunch of 6mm stuff,maybe paint them up later tonight.

I finished my plague monks, now all I need to do is paint the plague priests fur and they'll all be ready for the blightwar.

Loaded more images to Imgur. Did another two pages of one of my PLOGs uploading the replacements.

Worked on two Eldar Missile Launchers that will fit on my OOP Wraithlord.

Did the first layer of splatter camouflage on another Wave Serpent.

I've been working on my celestial Lion intercessor squad. This is my first painting project in like, a decade, and I'm not sure about the final result. Sorry for the crap photo too. Bad camera.

After a lengthy hiatus I finished painting/dipped 10 assault marines yesterday and started work on Jain Zar - will likely work on her today and perhaps finish the marines w/ basing.

Maybe work toward some Chaos Obliterator kit-bashes as well.

Today I'm going to put some more paint on my Bloodreavers, although I'm going to be taking a break from that in the middle of the day to watch the total eclipse. Wish I could find a way to commemorate the event in my miniatures, but nothing comes to mind.

Painted the Russ and hate the paint job - what works in 1:100 scale doesn't work so well at 28mm. Debating if I should bother stripping the paint.

In the meantime assembled another 5 cadian guardsmen. Just in case someone complains about my non-standard guardsmen again and I have to do a last minute swap.

More perililous "whif" models. You start out wanting to make one thing, but then little by little it becomes something else. This time I wanted to make a StuG IV mounting an 88mm gun, then it turned into a Jagdpanzer IV Lang Ausf. E, before becoming a Sturmpanzer III/IV thing. Ah, most people just stick some extra stowage onto their Panzer IVs and call that a conversion.

Making a final push to finish 20 more new marines and reivers.

Loaded a few more of my lost images to Imgur. Did another four pages of one of my PLOGs uploading the replacements.

Made some battletech objective markers.

Bear wizard adventure time

Frostgrave hobby bear update:

the bear ate my apprentice.

Converted a Warmahordes widowmaker to a IG Conscript. Still not certain what to do with his little stick he was holding the rifle up with. Considering turning it into a sign that says 'Ban illegal conversions!' in a tiny, angry font.

Give the bear a hat and teach it some spells. New apprentice.

Did another three pages of one of my PLOGs uploading the replacement images.

Did another layer of scatter paint of a OOP Wave Serpent.

Space Wolves Wolf Guard on bikes. It's almost too much wolf to wolf. Bikes basecoated, everything assembled. The minis are now officially at the part of the process where they kind of look like crap though. Using bits from Space Wolves Pack, Wulfen, Space Marines Bike Squad, bolters & fusion gun bits from ebay for the combi-plasmas.

I just spent so much time seeing if i could find a little lego wizard hat somewhere, that's how much i'm going to do this. I had no luck, but it's still going to happen, somehow.

Today I'll be thinking on the colour scheme for my 7 new Knights Errant. I actually managed to find a box of Knights of the Realm today!

Also considering the feasibility of converting a Bretonnian Lord on a Hippogryph.

Did another two pages of one of my PLOGs uploading the replacement images.

Worked on the first highlight for the top of a OOP Wave Serpent.

Basing 4 Battletech Mechs.

Since I finished these after midnight I guess I add this here. Painted and glued on my Intercessors weapons:



I think at this stage I'm still a bit rusty, but I hope to improve as I paint up more squads.

No One Expects the Imperial Inquisition!

Finished the scatter paint on one of my OOP Wave Serpents. Primed the 6 little jewels that get mounted on the two wings.

Something a little different from me for this thread.

I've finally after 2 years of delays and excuses started making my games/hobby room. Put the shelving up today, I'm hoping to be able to make a start on the table over the weekend provided I can get my bathroom finished first (got to reseal everything). Still need a few bits and piece for the table like some cork to act as sound deadening and a few screws and things like that to hold everything together but the main bulk of the table is sitting in the room ready to be put together.

Once it was built I spent some time this afternoon tracking down all the board games in my house and getting them on the shelves. The next job will be doing the same thing will all my wargame and RPG rulebooks.



I still need to track down some chairs for the room and I might get one of those nice Ikea glass display cabinets to put my painted minis in but it feels really good to finally after 3 years of living in this house and 2 years of having most of what I need to actually have made a start.

Oh I've also been doing some mini painting today. Started working on some minis for Flintloque, got one half of the Bier and Bones starter set painted, I'll base them all once the rest are painted.



Yay for productive time off work.

Spent the last few days working on an Imperial Knight Freeblade, properly painting again for the first time in a long, long time and actually keeping it going, unlike the many false starts over the last four months.
