After 27h spent on saturday+sunday to get sisters ready for game spent 2h more today putting 3rd layer for last 23 sisters and glue on bases. Now rest a bit and then put red line on bases of celestians to easily identify them mid game until more permanent visual cue can be painted(the symbol on helmet + something else)

Finished my first Kill Team that meets the 100 point limit. A swarm of Nids consisting of a warrior, genies and hormies. Love their base detail so much I might just call it Hive Fleet Oregano!

Painted and added some decoration to some conveniently shaped cork-rock outcrops that will serve as hills.

Our final parcel with Warhammer Fortress pieces arrived today. So tonight we will be making a start on the biggest castle we can fit on a table.

I finally got all the pieces I need to finish that fortress myself....dont inspire me to expand it even larger! That would be madness!

First played first game with pure sisters. Then idiot(me) was careless and box with most of my sisters fell about 1m freefall...This was too much for magnetic transport solution and contents fell around...Picture is after some picking up models so not even worst shape...However it was surprisingly light damage. Only 5 seraphim were off their flying stands, plenty of models were still hanging upside down in magnets and no model was broken except metal missionary...

So rest of evening was spent repairing damage. All done. All in all need to fix some paint work on unfinished bases but all in all hearing miniatures flying inside box I expected lot worse(celestine I was sure would be snapped off...But that one is there as she was originally...).

Working on painting the 2 Obliterators I've been avoiding painting for months. I can't wait to get them done!

around 15-20 hours left on my terrain table for frostgrave - tonight I should reorganize my work area and pick up some more super glue and airbrush medium

Assembled two Van Saar gangers for an upcoming league.

Maybe I’ll put together some Skyfires or Tzaangor Enlightened models.

I received a new set of playtest materials for my dungeon crawl...Version 2! Huzzah! Setting up a dungeon tonight for a game tomorrow.

Painting sisters. Progressing nicely and tomorrow starts weekend! Requested even(and was granted) one day off from work(I have whole bunch of holiday days unspent and boss has been nagging me to use them so...) so 3 days of pure painting ahead. Going to make serious progress with these ones.

Sticking coffee grounds to terrain bases, about time that I got them looking better.

Which will finish off the terrain set I've slowly been collecting and putting together.

Stsrting my 10 Irondrakes and Runelord.

Looks like the cold snap has broken, so I'll be priming as many Sisters as I can once I'm home from work.

Managed to build a Broodlord (to hell with that single base connection point), a Flyrant (with scything talons stolen from the Tyrannofex kit, as they're bigger), a Maulerfiend, another Forge Fiend, and a Venom Crawler to run alongside the Maulerfiend.

Just a Lord Discordant, 15 Havocs, a Carnifex, a Tyrannofex, some Venomthropes, a Helbrute, two Tyrannocytes and a Neurothrope to go!

Going to keep plugging away and hopefully finish my last 5 Mortek Guard tonight.

I want to take my 6 Tzaangors from Silver tower and use the enlightened staffs from the Enlightned/Skyfire kit to make 6 Enlightened on foot. That’s my goal for the evening. My wife is building 4 of my Skyfires today for me (can’t paint right now, but wanted to build stuff).

Finished 12 sisters to stage I can varnish them and then just gold. Will try to get lots to that stage first though so onward to next 12.

Bit more work on an event card app for Android.

Finally got Machina Arcana to the table. Very fun game but terrible rulebook.

took my nighthaunts out for the first time, here they are, looking a bit like lost tourists huddled together in case they see something scary



enjoyed painting them, enjoyed the game as well - 1,000 points v Tzeentch o however you spell the swines.

beat them in the end, just about

Got 12 more sisters to stage before gold(I'll do that for whole bunch of them at once). Next! 2 batches done, 4 more to do. Let's see if I can do another 12 tomorrow and yet another on monday. For the record it's tad short of 30 steps per model plus some more if skin needs to be painted.

Got to play our first game of Kill Team today. My GSC versus my buddy's DeathGuard.

The Lord Discordant is such a fiddly kit.

And whoever designed the Helbrute kits needs a good talking to...

As someone that attempted minor conversion on a lord discordant. The AC/ flamer holding tentacle idea, that person needs a slap, not just talking too but an actual slap.......

Putting a couple of Z scale(-ish) tanks on bases. My two year old says they look like "robot ducks", which I'm actually okay with.

And then once we're done there, we can go find the person who designed the Helbrute kit and beat them until candy comes out.

And then we move onto the sadistic feth who designed the Havoc kit...


I gave up after 4 Chainreaper guys. The rest of my Havocs tomorrow can be my existing Chaos heavy weapon Marines. Didn't get to build my Tyrannnocytes either, so I just built all the Spore Mines and will use Biovores tomorrow and LOTS of Sporemines.

May I humbly request the designer of the Spirt Host kit is added to this list

anyway, back to today, had a run to Doncaster and part of that was to drop into the shop and basically have a look round and pick up a few paints...

Mrs L. in tow, ended up getting that somewhat nice ruined plaza kit because I was told I was buying it, well terrain is terrain so it will be useful so why not.

got the colours I was after, youngest discovered just how expensive a paintbrush is, and why nothing on the shelves seems to have price tags, which is odd

oh, and we got rained on

its grim up north
