The last mini I'll be painting for a while as I'm heading to the airport in a few hours for a well-earned holiday. But as a last model, I painted this Tyranid for Hive Fleet Behemoth.
I thought I would try something a little smaller than normal today. I painted some Death Guard Space Marines for Legions Imperialis. These guys really are tiny, but I still managed some edge highlights!
A truly retro painting job today. I painted up this classic 2nd edition 40K Gretchin using everyone's most nostalgic colours. Paint quality may have moved on over the years, but there is a real joy to using these paints.
My current WIP, really happy with how this classic Warhammer Wight Lord is coming out. Always wanted to paint him so trying to give him a very special paintjob
After being busy and not managing to get time at my paint desk, today I painted up an Ent model, really quick easy to paint, but the result is really nice.
Played some Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game. My Hobbits took on the Ruffians in the Scouring of the Shire campaign. At this point in the campaign, it's pretty even between the two sides.
My last memory lane posts seem to have resonated well so here’s another. #CallOfCthulhu is up there as one of the games that I’m not very keen on. This comes from a couple of games (both at conventions with well respected Keepers) where the aim has been to scare the player rather than the characters. This put me off for quite a while but after a good game with someone who was running Cthulhu as their first ever GMing attempt I’m tempted to go back to it. #GamesWorkshop#RPG#TTRPG

I was challenged to paint up a Tyranid inspired by the Xenomorph from Alien, I felt it needed something a bit more than just painting black and some drybrushing.
I'm sure I remember metal command groups £4 plus £3 for the champion (and three metal infantry were £5 in a blister pack). It was around pocket money price.
