In the world of ridiculous WWII stuff today I've been having a go at making a Jagdpanzer 38 (d) - the German built version of the common Czech 38 (t), known commonly for the "Hetzer" derivative. Whilst starting out with some spare Hetzer parts I realised that I couldn't use any of them. The tank's completely different in the smallest of ways (glacis angles, distances between components). It'll be fun to stick a regular Hetzer next to it when its done to compare the two.

Sounds like an awesome little project Wyrmalla, some of those obscure German WW2 prototypes or low run vehicles can be really weird.

Today I'm painting the other half of the Flintloque starter set, doing more stuff in the games room and making some scenic items on my 3d printer.

Glued on the 6 little jewels that get mounted on the two wings of the FW OOP Wave Serpent. Need to get this one finished for a game on Saturday otherwise I have to amend my list.

Did another two pages of one of my PLOGs uploading the replacement images.

Assembling a whole set of penal legionnaires. Assembled a 5 set of female cadians but realized that they are significantly smaller than their male counterparts. Enough that I'm worried its going to be noticeable.

Once it was built I spent some time this afternoon tracking down all the board games in my house and getting them on the shelves. The next job will be doing the same thing will all my wargame and RPG rulebooks.





Pssh, you only have the basic Catan game? Go buy yourself a couple of expansions...

Today is a day of relaxing, yesterday saw a couple of games of DBA with my New Kingdom Egyptians - easily the most ancient of the ancients armies at FLGS.

Thinking I need something even more ancient...

House move essentially complete, modelling stuff on hold for a bit until I unpack, but hoping to actually play a few more games now

Hmm, what exactly is DBA? It sounds like something I need...

As for me, I've been building some more wraith guard for my eldar and another tactical squad for my Thousand Sons (also working out what to order from FW, the Castellax Achea are simply beautiful). On top of that, my skaven plague priest has finally been painted (after almost exactly a year of battles as a grey plastic figure :( ), so now all I need are a bunch of Fenrisian Wolves to convert into beasts of nurgle and the new snail guy and my (ch)AoS army will be done! Except for the second batch of plague monks AAAAND the beastmen guys I want...

I played a game of pandemic, which i have somehow never played before, in spite of the fact that i love cooperative games. We won, but it was on beginner mode.

I have also painted a spear wielding soldier for frostgrave. She shall serve the Bear Wizard well.

Today I made a start on my gaming table. It's going to be a very simple design, 2 kitchen cabinets placed back to back with a 4'x4' top. I'm going to cover the top with cork or thin foam sheet to act as sound deadening and then have card table felt on top of that. Got the first cabinet built, going to do the second tomorrow and see if I can do the top either later in the week or next weekend.

A Protoss colony world

Today I'm going to finish off my Khorne Bloodreavers, ready for use as Berzerkers in my Chaos Space Marine army. A week after I had hoped to have them done . Oh well, they were a lot more detailed than I thought at first; doing ten in a weekend was an unrealistic goal, especially for me. Honestly, doing them all in 8 days is pretty good, so I can't complain too much. Once they're all finished, I'll put them in my blog and get back to my Primaris project now that the burnout on those has worn off some.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/1/23, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~15000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Adeptus Custodes: ~1900 | Imperial Knights: ~2000 | Sisters of Battle: ~3500 | Leagues of Votann: ~1200 | Tyranids: ~2600 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000

Just finished emergency postertacking 10 penal troopers and inquistorial acolytes. Meant to have them painted and assembled for tonights game, but I've been too lazy.

Did some painting in the great outdoors!

Only a single mosquito bite was suffered!

Unfortunately the weather meant my paint was drying out on the palette and the brush far more quickly than I could handle; the resulting miniatures are pretty crappy and I think I trashed a couple of brushes, but it was worth it for the sheer joy of painting outdoors without being eaten by insects!

(was painting horses for the record; 5th ed bret horse bodies with 6th ed empire knight heads)
