After my run on space marines I had the itch to get back onto the fantasy bandwagon. Having painted a pretty simple colour scheme for the SM I thought I’d challenge myself and like a glutton for punishment went straight for the Bretonnians. Like many I have a love/hate relationship with them. I love the… Read More Hobby update – Bretonnians
Warning – will contain expletives! It’s happened, I’ve finally been forced onto the new editor and my god it’s fucking shite. I cannot comprehend how anyone outside of a developer could think the new editor was intuitive. You press return and it adds a new block rather than a new line. I still haven’t worked… Read More Hobby update (Lizardmen, Marines, Assassin) and mini rant about Gutenburg
Space Marine I thought I’d start with something different today. It’s been an age since I’ve painted any 40K, but having split the indominatus box with a club mate, I actually had the urge to do so! The Judiciar was actually the model I least liked in the box. It didn’t take long for me… Read More Hobby update – Space Marine and Bretonnians
Amongst the chaos that is working from home with kids, I’ve managed to squeeze in a bit of painting time (the army book review was mainly a cut and paste so didn’t count as effort 😉). The first model below was actually completed in July but for some reason I don’t like posting single models… Read More Hobby Update – Beastmen and Wood Elves
So the wanderer returns and brings glad tidings. What could they be? The Nurseries have opened. And there was much rejoicing. It’s funny how a simple thing can make such a difference. When they sent round a letter asking if we’d be sending back our daughter, my missies ticked ‘maybe’. I was more adamant. There’s… Read More Hobby Update – Beastmen and Dwarves
Edit: somehow I managed to unpublish this post so apologies if you’ve already seen this It’s been a while since I posted and now I have 3 different painting updates (and apologies for a couple of paragraphs of me going on). You’d be forgiven for thinking I have spare time on my hands since the… Read More Hobby Update – Wood Elves, Dwarves and Beastmen
You’ll all be pleased to know* that I’m not dead yet. I’ve just been really poorly motivated around the blog recently. That doesn’t mean that I haven’t done anything on the hobby front though. Dwarven Miners In terms of painting, I finally managed to finish off the horde of dwarf miners that have jammed up… Read More Hobby update – Dwarves and Blood Bowl league games
Beastmen I’m a bit late posting pictures of the first of the models considering that, for me, I speed painted it in order to field it in my last battle report. Skegi One-horn, the most recent Wargor to emerge from the ranks of the Bestigor, disdains the use use of his own feet and will… Read More Hobby Update – Beasts, Hobbits, Dwarf and opening Blood Bowl game.
Half term week is upon us and with that, it means the in laws have descended so I’ll have very little time to paint. So this weekend I launched a frantic flurry of activity to clear some items off the board. A little while ago I painted up the original Gotrek and Felix models. Off… Read More Hobby Update – Dwarves and a little something else
It’s again one of those months where the moons have aligned and the omens appeared… or I’ve sat down and gone, I need some room on the board, finish off some of those half completed models why don’t you. The first on the list are 4 Bretonnian Knights of the Realm. These very much fall… Read More Hobby Update – bits and pieces.
