More Might and Melee! This time on top of The Ziggurat (yes, I know it's not a ziggurat, just an excuse to break out the Dungeon in a Box). A resounding loss for me. One guy left the board with a loot token, the other 4 died horrible deaths

Finally finished Ancient Gadriel and Captain Titus for my Fists of Ultramar. It was a paaaain filling in the engraved "ULTRAMARINES" text on the banner so I could paint "ULTRAMAR", but these aren't Ultramarines, so it needed doing!

‘Government needs to recognise failure of water privatisation’ – Feargal Sharkey
We spoke to the singer and prominent environmental campaigner Feargal Sharkey, and began by asking him to tell us more about the campaign to nationalise water companies

It's been a slow (and Fists of Ultramar-centric) painting month this month. But I've completed a Bladeguard Squad and Metaurus, and three of the human staff from the Wardens box

I wanted a Tyranid Prime with a lash whip, so this afternoon I've made a Tyranid Prime with a lash whip. She's a Winged Prime with Ravenor's claw and Warrior's whip

Saw some people posting what they've painted in Feb, so thought I'd jump on the bandwagon! I did a Terminator Captain, Terminator Squad and a Ballistus for my Fists of Ultramar. I also did some ancient Briton ghosts, and a little bad guy squad for 5 Parsecs from Home (I've never played)

Painted up a Captain in Terminator Armour for my homebrew chapter, the Fists of Ultramar. I'm also trying a new camera app so if this looks bad, blame the app. If it looks good, it's all me, babyyyy

I played some not-Battletech tonight, using Xenos Rampant rules. I'm not sure I'd do it again... I found the shooting too generic for mechs, and the one action per turn a bit restrictive. I'll maybe try FFOL: Battlesuit Alpha

I built a board in a photo frame for

using some 3d printed cobbles. I wanted this to be flatter than my last board for placing bigger terrain like ruins or buildings, but to also look cool without terrain. I'm pretty happy with it

Played my first (solo) tryout game of
#greathelm
and I was a big fan. I can see it being carnage with 6 knights per side (and an opponent!) It was fairly evenly matched until it was down to two knights, then one failed a Courage test due to the gore generated by the guy that HE gruesomely slayed!

Finished up some Zoanthropes for my xenomorph-inspired Tyranids. Black with a drybrushing of Death Korps Drab+White, carapace finely edge highlighted with Thunderhawk Blue. Brain bits are Moot Green+Thunderhawk, highlighted with Moot then a bit of white mixed in (for those interested 🤣)

Imagine if in Terminator Kyle Reese had said, "Skynet started calling itself Mecha-hitler." You'd think that was the most stupid thing you'd ever heard. This is our world. We're living in a broad satire. Anyway, I've redrawn an old 2000ad cover.

Moody Raveners pic! I built these guys to join my new 40k Tyranids army rather than as a Kill Team. Aliens (and ant) inspired all-black scheme, using a highlight colour I mixed myself and have now run out of 🙃 Was it Waagh Flesh and Dawnstone?

I decided I wanted a Gabriel Seth so I made one! He's mainly an Assault Intercessor with a Heresy Heavy Chain sword and some Blood Angel Captain bits and a Death Co head. Might run him occasionally as a Death Company Captain too
