With this Female Custodes thing. I think GW has a way better handle than they think.
IMO they are going to let all the right wing,woman fearing berts get up in outrage and get more new eyes on the product.
They know the same people ain't bailing cause their personality revolves around the hobby.

First attempt at an Eldar model in a very, very long time!
Primed in white and used BA red hoping I could avoid needing to apply a wash.
Dry brush of evil sunz scarlet and edge highlights with wild rider red.
The gun was black legion and a dry brush of mechanicum grey.

So I'm seeing people from the Martial Arts world saying things like.
'Regardless of his beliefs, Tate deserved respect for stepping in the ring.'
Actually, he doesn't. He's had numerous fights and loads of experience.
He thought he was getting an easy fight and was found out. End of.

Putting this here so I can come back to it in 2026.
Before Jujitsu my earlier MMA career focused on my kickboxing having competed as a jnr and snr.
Luckily the gym has had a few like minded souls and been kind enough to help me get back into a rhythm again.

Today was our Winter Grading 2025.
Made the move from 🟣 to 🟤.
My routines changed a lot after making the transition to purple and I feel out of competition so missed a vital stage to test myself.
Here's to stepping up to that challenge and making the most of it. 🙏🔥

It ain't much, but it was hard work and it didn't last very long! 😅
Been playing 6V6 duo's with another and managed to reach my highest rank yet.
It is kinda cheap too that it's done with one of the most spam tanks 😂

Climbing update.
First V3 of the new problems. Looking back on this, it looks pretty straight forward but the initial holds and high leg were a tricky start.

When I started the last Terminator box, I foolishly lost a leg of one of them.
So decide to turn the remainder of the box into a veteran sergeant and all the weapons options.
Here's Term number 3, equipped with a Cyclone Missile Launcher.

Our gym has done a reset on the boulder wall so a whole new set of V3 to V4 problems to tackle.
Sceptical on how much progress I'll make over the next 6 months considering this was a V1/V2.
The problems this time round are going to be a challenge.

Another Terminator completed. Made the error of losing a piece from the box set 'a leg' lol. So the remaining miniatures will be built to be each heavy weapon option. Here's option one. Assault cannon.

Not been playing overwatch as much but when I do, I normally main tank and support because it's the least mechanically demanding for an old man. Sharing this here for retrospect.
Recently been having a lot of fun choosing violence though over keeping players alive 😁

So, I absolutely hate having to do technical documentation and thought I was spending some solid time making a Lucid Chart for a pretty complicated workflow.
Lucid Charts reminds me after a good few hours or work that I'm out of shapes and need to take out a sub.
Eventful start to the week lol.

Rarely ever get to included any vids or updates around JuJitsu, so here's some simple back and forth between myself and great consistent training partner and friend from a short time back.

Popped round to the home of a mate's brother, who is also a huge 40k nerd specifically Space Wolves.
This has made my day, week and maybe even the month!

I used to own loads of Terminators as a teenager. Coming back to painting them recently and I put a lot of effort into this one. Please with how it turned out from a painting progress standpoint but seeing so much more that could be improved on!

More climbing progress.
Steadily getting to the last two holds on this V4 but making some mistakes on foot placement.
Someone in the gym had remarked about people who rarely post their failures.
I think this was easily over my 10th attempt as this problem lol.

Got my first V4 on video.
Glad I finally got this recorded after so many failed attempts.
The hardest part of this problem was painting footing and balance while not scraping any of the existing holds on the wall.

Completed all the V3's at our local boulder wall and managed one V4 (no video evidence yet lol)
Been wanting to place some vids of Jujitsu but it's much harder to capture the progress there than here with wall climbing.
Can't wait for the hands to heal and get back at it 🧗🔥
