It's been a while since I filmed a show so here's the footage of the awesome 40th Anniversary Partizan show. youtu.be/RutSDxf42uA So bits are a little rough around the edges but I hope you enjoy it.

Midgard Moot this weekend. A great event hosted by @mogsymakes.bsky.social. Hosted my “Eagle of the Ninth” game with 1 victory a piece across the day. All finished off with a curry and several drinks in the evening. The Moot is becoming one of my favourite events of the year!

@maraviglia.bsky.social some shots of the Argonauts game from yesterdays game day.

Cracking weekend at Midgard Moot enjoying some awesome games expertly run by the hosts! Great to meet some similar faces and see many new ones. Once again @boardsandswords.co.uk provided a excellent venue, whatever the event it's always a great weekend and my favourite gaming trips of the year.

As we've moved into summer the hobby has massively slowed down for me. However I've got some serious motivation back with this very spontaneous WWI naval project I decided to start. Here's a quick look at the initial ships

@shakosandsprues.com very kindly sent me this MDF kit a little while ago and I finally got round to painting it and adding a few bits and pieces to it 🙂

Another fantastic show this year at Partizan. Some great games and a slightly new layout that worked really well. Loved the mix of participation games. youtu.be/nLHfWaEbNl8

All setup and ready to run some @warlordgames.com Black Seas demo games at #chillcon

This week I needed some movement gauges and rulers for a game of @warlordgames.com Black Seas at the club. I quickly mocked these up in CAD and printed them off. Great to share something with the community rather than just consume. You can find them here. www.thingiverse.com/thing:6950084

Absolutely fantastic game of @warlordgames.com Blacks Seas at the club this week. A 4 player free for all saw the British, French, Spanish and Russians battle it out in an epic naval melee. Boarding actions, broadsides and fires aplenty!

The first show report of the year is a look at the games of the #Vapnartak show. youtu.be/xLUn4EqQBA4

Ah yes the well renowned ethically sourced Deathwing 🤣

The Priming has begun. With the ongoing Vallejo workers strike I've made the switch to AK for this bottle and really enjoying it so far, a very matte appearance and after 24 hours to set up looks pretty hard wearing too

Rubicon Models new M48A3 kit released with perfect timing for my ongoing Vietnam project. Superb kit too, was a joy to assemble and looking forward to painting it up.

One of the most exciting things as a hobbyist has to be remembering you have something stashed away and then frantically trying to find it. Really glad to have dug out this Wargames Illustrated Giant in Miniature. I love the smell of metal in the morning!

I'm loving the community feel over here on @bsky.app and this feels very satisfying

Something a bit different. Last thursday down at the club trying out Mantic Games new Halo: Flashpoint release. Based on the deadzone system it has some really great mechanics that make it a great fun game for the evening, a lot more strategy and depth to it that the quick and simple rules suggest!

Really enjoyed assembling this M113 ACAV from Rubicon Models. An absolutely superb piece of engineering with a very precise fit that made it simple and easy to put together. Not one for those who dislike kits with lots of parts though! #rubiconmodels

Oh dear, numbnuts has caused a major malfunction 🫡 These two rifle barrels where bent back when they arrived and my straightening attempts were unsuccessful. Does anyone have some good tips for making replacements? Brass rod?

In the post today from Empress Miniatures the USMC Platoon Deal that will be the start of the Nam '68 project. An awesome pile of beautifully sculped metal goodness from @hicksy.bsky.social bags of character and some great nods to film. #wargaming

Tonight's rather dull but useful hobby while listening to the plastic crack podcast, reorganising the hobby related bookcase. Half full glass of Vimto and PCP approved Turnip water mug for scale 😆

With more and more fellow faces going us over here did you know it's super simple to setup your BlueSky account handle with your own custom domain rather than bsky.social? bsky.social/about/blog/4...

Fantastic episode on tonight's Plastic Crack Podcast with @mogsymakes.bsky.social talking all things Midguard. www.youtube.com/live/CWg0XEM...

THE VIDEO IS FINALLY OUT!!! This one is for YOU Warhammer fans 🫵 And its about why I want you to try my new favourite hobby (spoiler: its because its dope af) #warhammer #warhammercommunity #gundam www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaoN...

One hobby project I'm planning next year is to put together some forces for whet looks to be another cracking set of rules from Warwick and PSC by diving I to Nam '68. I think I'm going to go 28mm but which range of minis? Love the Empress metals or try the new Rubicon plastics?

It's been a quiet few months hobby wise with quite a few showing taking up my hobby time. My main editing laptop has also been out of commission being in Germany for repairs, it's now back so I should finally get time to edit The Other Partizan video this week 🫡

Quite enjoyed rebel moon, good entertainment and well produced. TLDR: building up for a space seven samurai. I can see how people relate it to 40k but, starwars less so, it feels more grounded. If anything for me it's more firefly meets dune, with magnificent seven thrown in for good measure.

The final post of the festive season has arrived for some holiday season hobby on the Caesar in Gaul project. Merry Christmas to everyone at Warlord Games🎄🎁

On a rather snowy and cold morning this bit of post has just made my day with its awesomeness! Thanks @badsquiddogames.bsky.social for a very cool and perfectly accurate Napoleon!

On @bsky.app at long last, now to hunt down some awesome people to be following. My favourite feature so far, the accessibility section and the option to ensure you add ALT text before posting.
