It's been a bit of a rough week, but I'm back with a HAZOP with a Spike Rifle.

I really liked this model. Gungnir is such a weird but cool helmet. I also really like the shoulderpads on this one.

Here's my JFO with Target Locator. I experimented a bit more with the expansion Spartans since I didn't have to indicate they were on any specific team for demo play.

Needler Brawlers wrap up the core set Spartans. I've got some more Spartans coming up from rhe Wargames and Fireteam Cerberus boxes. Don't forget to check out the other models from the core set that I posted earlier!

Halfway through the core set Spartans now. I really like the Deadeye helmet a lot. Out of these 2 the one on the left is my favorite.

These are the 2 DMR Deadeyes in the core set. Halo is one of many franchises from my teenage years I've been falling in love with again this year. I've really been enjoying replaying through all the games, and reading the novels.

Here's the other 2 Spartan Mark VIIs from the Halo Flashpoint Spartan Edition core box. It's definitely taken over as my current hyperfixation. I really enjoy how fast and punchy it feels to play.

I got a bit overwhelmed this summer and stopped painting as consistently. Going to try and post more consistently again. Still have a bunch of projects I'm working on though, as well as a few new games I started. Like Halo Flashpoint, where these Spartan Mark VIIs come from.

Got the last 2 hunters for the Monster Hunter World Ancient Forest core set painted up. Next on my desk to Tobi Kadachi.

I got the Dual Blades and Bow hunters for the MH World board game painted this week. The bow hunter's sculpt was a little disappointing. Her face was smooshed in and a lot of the fur texture was muddied. I might try and define the face more later.

Last week I received a copy of the Monster Hunter World board game as a gift and it has completely derailed my current painting projects. The minis in the Ancient Forest box are going to be my main painting priority for the next month or so I think. First up Great Jagras

I actually didn't get a mini done this week. RIP. Oh well, I'll just double down for next week. I received an unexpected gift that drew a lot of my attention away and I kinda forgot about working on my current projects lol. More info on that next week I think.

Another Rebel Trooper done for this week's mini. I've been slowly making progress on batch painting my Aquilons for kill team, but these rebels are easy enough to get done so I can keep up with my 1 mini/week challenge.

I didn't have much in the way of energy this week, but I squeezed this rebel trooper in before my weekly deadline.

Test model for my Tempestus Aquillons is done. Now to start the batch painting process. I'm going to get everyone else basecoated at the same time, and then paint them in groups of 5, and 4. I'll probably paint the sentry separately.

The current state of my Tempestus Aquillon test model for this WIP Wednesday. They're mostly done but I need to do some details and highlights and work on defining some things a bit better.

With that, the Vespid Kill Team is complete. Time to move onto the Tempestus Aquilons.

It's WIP Wednesday, and I've made some good headway on my last 2 Vespids. Base coats are done and the wings are mostly finished. Looking forward to wrapping this kill team up.

This week I decided to power through 3 more Vespids. I only have 2 more to go until I can clear this kill team off my to do list. They've been a real slog just cause I'm not really invested in them. There are some areas I might revisit at some point to fix some things.

Had a very busy week but still squeezed this guy in. This is one of the wizkids blister pack minis for D&D, a gnome cleric I think. Using him as one of the enemies for Deth Wizards.

Took a break from social media last week, but didn't stop painting. This is my Vampire for Deth Wizards. I've been painting my warband in a Mörkborg inspired color scheme. I noticed some areas I need to touch up, so I might improve it later.

I got to play a couple games of Cyberpunk Red Combat Zone with a good friend of mine, this past weekend. We had Zoners vs Bozos on Corporate Ladder, and Tyger Claws vs Edgerunners on Turf War. Our 4 faction campaign is getting a bit top heavy with Zoners at 5 Street Cred already.
