So yeah.. haven’t updated this thread in a while. But I have been painting, so get ready for a photo dump!

First a small continuation of the Troll Horde. Needed more banners in my army for a tournament, so I build a Goblin BSB on “Giant Spider”:

That’s the Trolls done. They’re back in storage, then in was time for a 40k Teams tournament!

So I finished more Orks!

10 Gretchin (all metal, cost me a fortune!) and some crew for a Mek gun:

A “Token” to show there’s minis in my Trukk:

3 Deffkoptas:

And some army pics from the Tournament! On it also a couple of Buggies and some more Warbikes added.

Because it was a team tournament I made a little fluffy marker to show our alliance. According to the Gorkamorka fluff this was place of a Necron Tomb on the planet, and sometimes there were alliances made..

So that’s it for the army stuff:

Another post for the more random stuff ;p

I had this Gambler model for Kingdom Death on my desk for years, finally painted him:

The maker of Frostgrave came out with a Halfling party-esque game (Hairfoot Jousting) so I couldn’t resist buying some lovely metal models:

I also recently got back into playing X-wing, and couldn’t resist painting up some custom models.

Mando’s Naboo Starfighter:

And a LAAT Clone gunship with the design from the Tartakovsky cartoon.

And then I across this lovely 54mm Inquisitor Assassin. I have loads more 54mm stuff so I might finally paint those!

Now we’re up to date again and we’ll see if I can keep this updated a little better!

The minis are super cute, but I haven’t had a chance to play the game yet… Looks like a fun short popcorny game.

Another random model:



So yeah, a friend gave out some Pez dispensers as a painting challenge. I decided to make mine into a cute little Squig.

Random model of the week!

Another 40k campaign and I’m playing Tyranids, but I had a hard time writing some fluff for my army.

So I dug through my bitsbox and found an emmisary!

Had some fun making pictures. Still need to work on focussing my camera.. :")

What’s this? Something that’s actually relevent to this site?

Yes! I’ve painted some Chaos Dwarfs!

A friend is hosting a Blood Bowl 7s tournament next weekend, and although I already have 4-5 teams ready to go, I decided to have a rummage through my bitsbox and managed to dig out a usable Chaos Dwarf team from some scraps.

My favorite model is my converted Flamesmith:

Unlike my Chaos Dwarf army I painted these in some brighter Old Skool colours. And it was so fun, it makes me think about repainted some more stuff…

But that’s for the future, first these guys need to perform!
