6 'Coriscan Rangers' from Perry Miniatures that I picked up at Vapnartak this year.
I used a few videos from @sonicsledgehammer.bsky.social as pointers on how to paint them, I'm not sure that I would've been brave enough to tackle them otherwise.

Question about wargaming/tabletop gaming conventions, why are they almost all in the first 1/3 of the year?
Vapnartak, Hammerhead, Salute, Beach Head, AireCon, ChillCon. UKGE in June, are there any big conventions after that?

Annie, I am placing an order to hopefully pick up at Hammerhead or Partizan, however the website just lists Vapnartak. Shall I just put Vap down?

Went to #vapnartak with @stormofsteelwargaming.com yesterday. Here are a few pix. Bit of a weird vibe this year with noticeably fewer traders and punters :(

Great day at Vapnartak yesterday as the 9th Legion Hispana attempted to fight its way through the snow bound hills of Britannia and not lose its eagle! 4 back to back games and loads of interest for Midgard. Looking forward to Hammerhead next where I join forces with @glenbrookgames.bsky.social 😬
