Armies on Parade 2025 Next monday at 1pm GMT the online competition is open for entries, remember not to submit before this time. You'll have under end of the following Sunday to get it in. #warhammercommunity

Feel this is likely just a tale of X gamers thing but with a common region/setting established and evolved between the hobbyists.

These upcoming kits are a cool start to an Imperialis force OR entire micro heresy force in a box. micro heresy. #warhammercommunity

Soulsmiths of Shiyama With the final 4 models now painted here's my Armies on Parade AOS force for the year, depicting the underworld of the Spirit Dragon, corrupted by Nagashes occupation utilising brass statues animated by traumatised souls. #warhammercommunity #armiesonparade2025 #ageofsigmar

I have about half an idea for a next year project that isn't quite a full one Narrative through modelling, I've realised I dont derived much joy from gaming so want to find players to evolve armies over a year to depict the changing circumstances of a region. #warhammercommunity

Two "Daemonic Power Point" Tokens so far, additional stowed gear helping to make clear the one active face denoting the units DPP. Shelf space for a 12mm dice on each token. #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

As my Soulsmiths of Shiyama run as Helsmiths I need a thematic way of depicting Daemonic Power Points. Since their original purpose was to help souls shed their mortal burdens, depicitng it as an overburdened soul carrying trauma feels best. So here's a Burdened Soul token. #warhammercommunity

WIP Whilst 4 infantry are still WIP I'm trying to plan composition for the entry, there's a limited number of units here so trying to maximise the use of space to leave minimal voids but also provide a couple of visual points of interest (dragon and balloon the most prominent) #warhammercommunity

Working on the last (front) 4 brass statues that form my Shiyaman Infernal cohort. Got the metals to edge highlight and then basing to round out what is most likely my final Armies on Parade unit for the year #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar #armiesonparade2025

Had a great time showcasing this years AOP entry at the local store. I wasn’t eligible for scoring but I did get a participation plaque which is really cool this year! Time to start planning next year!

2 days left on my ebay Auctions (new in box kits) Orrus - ebay.us/m/9FjJiK Gossamid Archers- ebay.us/m/ffLRVJ Idoneth Eels - ebay.us/m/hV3f64 #warhammercommunity

Soulsmiths of Shiyama Having slept on it I'm quite happy with how the head swap and gear accents transform Fusiliers into something more Cathay so they will count as the Helsmith ranged infantry in my project. #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

Armies on Parade 2025 This will be my instore entry for this year whilst my AOS entry will be for the online competition #warhammercommunity #armiesonparade2025

Does a headswap and some Cathay accessories make these fusiliers look suitably Cathay? #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

There is 9 Days until Armies on Parade Online Entries Open, and 16 Days till they close. As boards arent allowed online this year if you've painted an army its well worth submitting! If I can get 4 more infantry finished this will likely be my online entry #warhammercommunity #armiesonparade2025

WIP Second 3 "Brass Statues" for my Soulsmiths of Shiyama About half way through, need to highlight to blues, metals and sort the banner. #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

First 3 Infernal Cohort alongside the War Despot

Soulsmiths of Shiyama The 3 testers of Possessed Brass Statues as infantry are now done, shown alongside some other models from the force do they look suitably the part? C&C welcome The aim is a quick but striking scheme #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

Current WIP: The Soulsmiths use brass statues of the deceased to channel all the trauma and pain of a lifetime into and allow the soul to pass on untethered. Since the fall of Shiyama and the occupation of Nagash these brass soldiers filled with pain have become animate. #warhammercommunity

Worked out a way to make Dominators for my spectral cathay as helsmiths without buying an £80 sentinel each time for the head piece. Nighthaunt endless spells using the skull from the chest (digital mockup) #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

Just over 2 Weeks until Armies on Parade entries close!!!! Still torn between these two, I feel one is a bit more photogenic but hard to tell #warhammercommunity #armiesonparade2025

Soulsmiths of Shiyama Also trying out my AOS project in the new photo booth, these seem to be a touch more photogenic than my 40k armies on parade #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

Auretian Migrations: Testing out the new photography setup to capture my Armies on Parade, turns out I need a taller tripod given the new height of the photo booth but heres using the old tripod #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k #armiesonparade2025

Grandfather - Auretian Migration Originally concieved as a xeno-linguistic codebreaker AI, Grandafather continued to evolve with every civiliations tech he interfaced with. Now far beyond his original core purposes he seems fixated on integrating xeno-tech. #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

Assembly completed, 4 drawers so I can dedicate each one to live projects for sprue storage, tray for paints and tool storage, hanging backdrop in photo booth area and then box storage on top #warhammercommunity

Upgrading the hobby area with a 2 metre (and change) storage/photography area, will have 5 draws on the lower section and as shelf for the backdrop to drape onto for photography

Oh yeah #warhammercommunity

Soulsmiths of Shiyama Aside from basing the "War Despot" (puppetted statue) and "Daemon Smith" (wizard ghost) are nearly finished Does the War Despot sell the brass statue vibe? The core infantry will be cathay infantry in brass with inner glow #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

Work in Progress: War Despot When cleansing souls for the next life the Soul Guides of Shiyama use brass statues to absorb the pain and trauma weighing a soul down. These vessels take on all the negative emotions, now thousands are animated by that self same pain as war constructs. #ageofsigmar

Would I be nuts for debates switching out the 40k project I've been working on for months to put the AOS project I started this month in for Armies on Parade? The two so far for context! (have added to the 40k since but not photographed again_ #warhammercommunity #armiesonparade2025

Soulsmiths of Shiyama Here's the force so far, tempted to swap these out to be my in store armies on parade entry for the year if I can get some infantry done in the next couple of weeks #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar #armiesonparade2025

The first "Daemonsmith" foot hero for the Soulsmiths is now table ready! #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

Second of the Wailing Agonies for my Spectral counts as Helsmith force. Need to finish the basing on the model but now have one counts as for each of the Helsmith artillery. #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

For those who purchased Killteam: Tomb World: How many of you received curved/bent sprues from the packing of the box? Has this impacted build quality? #warhammercommunity

The 3 finished models for the Soulsmiths of Shiyama, currently priming the next artillery piece but so far happy with the theme across these models. #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar #paintingwarhammer

Tomorrow I can order!

Spinny cannon video. This model at the half way point got a bit dicy, I sort of lost definition in the cannon itself in trying to find the glow in the crew. But I'm happy at the end it stands out in its own right. #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

Soulsmiths of Shiyama - Wailing Agonies Happy to call the first artillery piece for spectral count-as Helsmiths force table ready C&C weclome #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar
