Finished the #blacklegion Land Raider: ‘Lupercal’s Folly’ for the Broken Crown warband. Went for some option choices on the top hatch weapons.

New #oldworld journal is a good read and lovely artwork as always. Small scale game rules look positive and the lore is interesting. The Border Princes army list could be tempting for a 750pt force. Thanks to @miniature__mayhem for ordering this in.

First coat of trim on the final set of #ærthegn armigars and drybrushed my #horusheresy status tokens for a game next weekend. Nice to be working on new projects.

Started assembling my #transformers Soundwave kit. Very impressed how easily it goes together for a push-fit kit and the level of detail so far.

Something different today. Was given this #transformers kit as a gift. Different to the usual types of kit I work on but looks interesting. Now, if they can do a Grimlock, I’ll be even happier.

Decal night! Last piece to be added to the #blacklegion land raider before final varnishes. Will be glad to clear this off the hobby desk.

The new #horusheresy journal is interesting. The new mission pack looks like it will produce very thematic games and the artwork is gorgeous. Good to see new detachments and the Word Bearer unit is filth. Still not sold on Saturnine armour though.

Finished all the base colours on the #woodelf waywatchers and spellweaver. Next step is the wash and then finishing off the tree stumps before basing.

Great morning at #warhammerworld looking over the #grandnarrative event. The hall looked very thematic with different warzones and lightning plus the warlords looked great. Also got some bonus event-only goodies thanks to my wife being there as well.

Finished the red and black on the #ærthegn armigars armour panels. Need to do the canopies and then move onto the trim. Pleased so far.

Couple more base colours added to the #woodelf waywatchers and spellweaver. Almost there on the base coats and then onto washes and basing.

Started blocking in more base colours on my #woodelf waywatchers and spellweaver. More detail than expected and slightly slow going but it’s only 6 models. Nice change to Astartes.

Got the first wash onto the chassis and completed the red on the armour plates for my last set of #ærthegn armigars. Hopefully get the black on the plates done next weekend.

Airbrushed the base chassis colour on the last of the #ærthegn armigars. Hope to get these finished by the end of the year and then only one Questoris chassis left to finish off the household.

Finished my #blacklegion sorcerer and raptor squad. Adds a bit more movement and it’s always nice to add an extra character.

All I’m doing is using the hotshot lasguns on the Tempestus Scions but cut down to carbines so they look different to the lasguns used by the rest of the army.

Here you go. Rough points costs but this is everything currently built and painted.

Played around with the updated #imperialmilitia list for #horusheresy today. Lots of fun. Only worked on rough points to get an idea but it’s great to see the variety and fun of the army is still there. It will die well.

The list is great. So glad we kept the flavour from v1 and v2 and had some new options added. Can’t wait to plan out what my army looks like now.

Penultimate #siegeofterra map unboxed. Lots of cool little details and nods. Really like this style.

It’s certainly not exciting hobby but with decent weather managed to get my #killteam Hivestorm terrain all base sprayed to work on over the winter. Now to let it cure.

It’s been years since I played or GM’d a #TTRPG but some friends were interested. I’ve had my eye on this from @cubicle7 for a while so was the excuse I needed. Very impressed; similarities with the old WFRP that I used to play but lots of lore and combat isn’t the main focus.

Started building my last project for painting over the winter as it’s still too warm to paint. This will see me add my Wild Riders to my #woodelf army.
