Crazy about Slaves to Darkness. Maybe a bit too crazy. Player for Team Sweden at AoS Worlds 2024, 6-Nations 2024 and Worlds 2025.

Haha, I was trying to figure out how I’d ratify my work. 😅
Thank you!

Yes! Attending a tournament in Malmö next weekend which has a mini-painting competition with a few different categories. 🙂

Just signed myself up for a painting competition for the first time ever.

Here’s hoping my Keeper got what it takes. 😬

It sure is a relief to not be playing 40 wardens anymore. Tonight I had a game where I didn’t fight for my life for 5VP.

Two things. I get that Vhordrai is a big kit. But four units in a ’battleforce’ is a bit lame.

And haven’t we already had this Sylvaneth box? Why are there only 1st edition or older models in that box?

This is insane.

After two games of playing until the clock runs out I get to play vs 7 stonehorns. Finally, a quick game.
Nope. A grueling slog which ends with me losing by 5. 40 wardens is too many. I’ll never recover from this.
But at least these guys are happy. 🙂

Game 2 vs SBGL was another nail biter. Worst 2-0 so I pair down into Felix’s ogors. Finally… not a match where both players will clock out.

First game was a BRAWL. Barely pulled out the W and I’m rewarded with Dennis & his Soulblight.

Crypt Flayer* Don’t roast me. 😅

We’re running it back. Game 1 is Liferoots. Local RTT so unpainted is permitted for this one. Forgot Eltharion at home though so for game one a varghulf believes he’s him.

It’s bitter sweet to look back at the first units of any army painted compared to the last. Knowing you have improved… but also some of them don’t look quite on par.
Looking forward to seeing those knights. :)

First tourney of the GHB on sunday. Got five more bladelords to paint up and YEP.

More wardens just arrived.
My back is going to hate me.

Rasmus Hellkvist @rasmushellkvist.bsky.social · 8d

That bronze is crisp. 👌

I think these are some of the coolest models GW has ever made, and I don’t even play Horus Heresy.
Yours are looking great!

Sadly I’m two meters tall so after one game my back is cursing me out. 😅
Years of only playing 30-model Slaves to Darkness armies has ruined mr.

Rasmus Hellkvist @rasmushellkvist.bsky.social · 9d

Might genuinely be better. But I refuse to move 60 of these bastards!

Made the terrible choice of fielding a horde of wardens today.
Back did not enjoy.
And maybe it’s just me but is it just my Sevireth which explodes before doing anything every game?

Adore that model.
If only it was any good… not too sure why it went up in points.

Rasmus Hellkvist @rasmushellkvist.bsky.social · 11d

Think I got my mojo back. Tournaments on the horizon means I gotta paint. That’s a grand total of two this month. 😅

I’m of the opinion that Age of Sigmar needs more standard bearers.
But it already takes 1000 hours to paint varanguard you say? Don’t care. Should have a standard bearer because it looks dope.

Sweet. Congrats!

Rasmus Hellkvist @rasmushellkvist.bsky.social · 13d

That’s epic.

Rasmus Hellkvist @rasmushellkvist.bsky.social · 13d

That’s awesome! Congrats!
