Happy New Year everyone!

May this one bring you all joy and happiness!

…and now to the Warhammer stuff!

Here’s everything I painted this year, and a few favourite pieces!

Thanks to my wonderful brother and partner, I now have a magnifying desk lamp and airbrush!

I’m going to have to rework my entire work area for the airbrush (and I’ve never used one before XD), but these should both help me get my minis up to the next level!

Also planning on working on learning how to properly magnetise my models, and I’m going to put time into learning new basing techniques and texture paints.

Hopefully it’ll help me clear through these two very full stacks of very full boxes of models 😅

Realised I hadn’t posted any shots of the completed Diorama.

“Scavengers” A Kroot warband scavenging the wreck of a damaged and abandoned Rogal Dorn battle tank.

This was a really fun project that had been sat in my head for nearly 2 years. It was a challenge learning all the military modelling techniques that I needed to get the tank looking like it had been burnt out by shell fire, then abandoned by the crew during a beach landing. Lots of inspiration from the Sherman’s abandoned on Saipan beach.

This was also my first proper resin pour so i decided to use a deep poor 72hr cure resin so I didn’t have to colour match the layers! The waves were then carved into the top using a grinding bit in my dremmel. Then some snow terrain paste to represent the breaking waves and a coat of gloss varnish.

I’m really happy with how this turned out and it’s taught me a lot I can use on future dioramas

It’s Orktober!

…actually, the last day of Orktober, but still.

Here’s Orks!

We have: ‘94 Kommandos

A random broken Nob!

Tankbustas!

2000’s Kommandos!

A Warboss!

A big mek!

And a Killa Kan!

Still got some stuff left to paint, but that’s all the orks this year so far!

Oh, and here’s the whole desk so far

Hey hey!

Guess who’s been forgetting to update this again?

(Sorry, brain has been all over the place lately)

This is just a quick update too - here’s my current painted collection for the year!

Over the last couple of months, I’ve been making a huge effort to focus on getting Kill Teams painted - I’ve managed to get my Inquisitorial Agents complete, my Sister’s of Silence, and a couple of Night Lords and Scions. I’ve just started work on my Navy Breachers, and I’ve got a bunch of others built too!

Oh, and I’ve painted up most of the Darktide board game too!

(Annoyingly I’ve only got work in progress pics here, but they are done, I promise!

Yesterday my partner and I went to London to see Spirited Away on stage!

It was absolutely beautiful - never seen a production like it! Such a wonderful feat of theatre!

I've just discovered there's a reddit user that's editing warhammer into historical art peices and photos that Tumblr deserves to see

Credit to u/TheTwist, please check out all their edits, and if you have a reddit account, tell them what you think of their work.

and my personal favourite

they also have a series on warhammer characters in dresses titled "the prittiest X"

I finished the Kroot mini of the month just before the end of the month!

Well, gonna put a tuft of dried grass on that base when I find my basing kit out XD

Bonus: guess who’s on anti-depressants now!

Apparently collecting and painting too much Warhammer is not a healthy way to fight depression! Who knew?

[daemonstalley]

A bit late, but I painted the Warhammer Mini of the Month for June - an Age of Sigmar Marauder!

Still need to base her (need to find out my basing stuff from storage first though XD)

I picked up the Kroot today - probably finish that in about a years time XD

good news for trans women: kamala harris is not, in fact, a vicious transmisogynist. the actions of her office and of the california department of corrections were wrongly attributed to her and her alone by people who wanted someone else to win, and when harris did become involved in the cases, she rewrote the entire policy for dealing with trans inmates so that they would get the care they need.

So I'm currently at this Lego exhibition in Dublin, by Brickman. I wasn't too impressed by anything I saw until-

RANDOM LEGO NURGLE ENCOUNTER!!!

Look at this guy! He even has skulls on the hilt of his sword. Probably the coolest custom Lego creation I've seen in a good while.

(Plus bonus Battletech Mech for the five fans who'll see this post)

Actually painted something properly for once

My shift at work was changed without me being told, so I sat and sketched a while.

This is Kugori-chan! She popped in my nightmare a few nights ago. Maybe she’ll pop up in yours?
