Random Musings About Me!

I have been painting for a few years, nothing like some people who’s blogs I have read, but I have little spurts of enthusiasm before it inevitably tails off again.

The vast majority of my work has been on GW products, but the most fun work has been painting my completed Imperial Assault Wave 1 stuff!

Now I adore the time I spent with the early editions of Warhammer and 40k and I am very partial to the recent Idoneth and Stormcast releases.

I have fond memories of my Skull Pass Dwarves, the first fully painted army I had, and had some cool games with them where their legendary toughness and my uncanny knack for superb cannon shots made my name at my club!

But that was an old life and people sadly no longer in my life.

A bout of personal idiocy, homelessness and a spell in a mental health institute, I am now back to painting and making some effort to complete the projects I start.

I am hoping that regular-ish posts and reviews will help with the quieter patches and if I make a habit of this I can end up with a place to put my thoughts straight.

Thanks for reading and please feel free to comment below 🙂

Castigators WIP

Hi friends and my apologies for the absence.

Sometimes you just hit that hobby block.

This was my progress last night and I really was not enjoying my work I had done.

It wasn’t until I painted the weapons that it all fell into place and the joy returned!!!!

Once these are done I shall be attempting the Nightgaunt 👍😋

Sequitors WIP

Top pic is the paints used and I have referenced the painting guide for an idea on how I want to paint these.

The plinth is painted ash grey, the surround and rim is dark stone, the comet sigil in weapon bronz and the leaves army green.

The only other feature here is the skull, painted in skeleton bone 😉

Next is dry brush and wash 👍

Sequitors WIP

Ok I’m now ready to start tackling the bases for my Sequitors…

I have removed the models from the base so I can at least make a half decent job on them!

Also I have used little blobs of blue tack to cover the glue points. I have made sure the primer coat is complete. I have used Army Painters Uniform Grey 👍
