Six US Seventh Cavalry for the Plains War, painted for my local club for a show game they are putting on this year. They will be based three to a 50mm round base. Painted with mostly Vallejo, and GW paints for the skin, and AP for the metal parts. It was fun to get back into historical painting.

For sale in the UK, an early to mid war German Army by Crusader Miniatures, nearly all unpainted and based. All the infantry had been previously painted and stripped. The MMG and Mortar are new and untouched. 48 Infantry and 2 Weapons Teams. £65 for everything including postage to a UK address.

Amazing table.

Instead of working on minis I need for this month I painted this #oldhammer #WFB Empire musician in Nordland colours. I did enjoy painting him though, and tried out a new blue and yellow colour scheme which worked out well. He is a thank you gift for a friend who gave me a horse miniature I needed.

Someone posted needing help to identify the troll from the Battle of Skull Pass box in an oldhammer identification group and I nearly crumbled to dust.

Mirliton Fantasy 28mm Barbarian Command Group 2 (ex Grenadier Fantasy Warriors miniatures)

"But Minas Anor endured, and it was named anew Minas Tirith, the Tower of Guard"

Can anyone help, I'm after some 25mm round bases but by Dice and Games (D&G imprinted on the bottom). They have a number between 1 and 16 printed on them, and I'm after some with '3' and '4' on them. Can anyone help?

Work in Progress Wednesday. I'm not far from finishing classic Empire model 'Boris Todbringer' who will lead my Saga Middenheim army. Just a few details on Boris, then the shield and castle motiff on the barding to finish him. #wip #wipwednesday #wfb #warhammer #paintingwarhammer

Slightly diminish a band. Manic Street Sweepers.

Me waiting for a release date for Saga Age of Caesars.

First game of the year, Saga Age of Vikings against my regular opponent Chris. I had Vikings and Chris Anglo-Danes. We played Feasting and Piliaging the objective being to capture three objectives markers (along the centre line), and then leave the table with them, as well as keep our armies alive.

Three Empire Middenheim Ogres to use in Saga Age of Magic. This is the eighth unit in a challange with a friend to paint an army over the year. Painted with GW colours, Vallejo GC Ghostly Grey and MC White, and Army Painter Gunmetal and Plate Mail Metal on the metal parts. Next up Warlord on horse.

These were the last miniatures of 2025. Really enjoyed creating this little vignette, especially the chap holding up the severed head with a smitk on his face. As usual lately the shields are hand painted, the figures are Footsore, Victrix and A&A and the backdrop is by @handiworkgames.bsky.social

This weekend I forced myself to do some painting for the first time in months. I've had Josef Bugman sat on my desk for a while, so he seemed the perfect choice. I'm pleased with the progress made and I hope I can stay motivated to finish him soon. #WarhammerCommunity #Warhammer

Did anyone play 'Theme Hospital'? I bought this in very late 1998, or in 1999 with one of my first pays and loved it. Spent hours playing it, and after seeing some videos on Facebook I'd love to play it again.

Looks like I'm going to sack off watching the end of Stranger Things to watch Top of the Pops from 1999 to see why everyone is complaining.

Hobby goals for 2026 are to paint two units a month, finish units which I start, and to share my gaming online. I'd also like to try and paint a character figure each month and make and paint some terrain, but only if I have time. I also want to paint more historical figures in 2026.

2025 has generally been a good year for me, except for losing my Aunty early in the year. I paid off my debt from the start of 2023 and on top of that my income has been greater than my outgoings. I've also done more painting than in the last few years before. Hoping to paint more in 2026.

My December painting was a bit of a wash out. Nothing finished due to a lot of evenings working late to help my work meet a handover deadline, or just ill or too knackered. Hopefully I will get some painting in tonight, or more likely just watch Stranger Things.

362. Seaman Goodman with cutlass, from 18th Century Sailors, in North Star’s On the Seven Seas range. All done in Army Painter paints.

Another #FinishedFriday, another base of 3rd Century Romans. All that's left to do for now is the Leaders base. Also tried my hand on a @andreasefternamn.bsky.social style action shot. Quite like it. #Wargaming #HistoricalWargaming #MiniPainting #MiniaturePainting

This is really exciting news. Not only will I go see it, but I'll take my son (who will be six) to see it. He'll get to see the film I saw as a child but in the cinema (I saw it first on television).

It's the start of a new month, and I'm hoping to paint two units this month as well as finish an additional unit previously started.

Progress at last! At least one of the half finished bases cluttering up my desk got finally finished. Figures Victrix with Aventine heads and Gripping Beast casualty. Only wish those Victrix capes weren't so 'flowy' #Wargaming #HistoricalWargaming #MiniPainting #MiniaturePainting #Midgard

As it's #DoctorWho day, but also the 20th anniversary of the series revival I watched 'Rose' the first episode of the new series shown in 2005. I was excited for this having heard it was coming back in 2003, then reading Doctor Who magazine for teaser info about the new series. Finally the trailers

Beautiful painting.

Does anyone have a complete warhammer Tomb Kings screaming skull catapult for sale? A friend of mine is after one but its not in stock at GW.

Post your favourite Star Trek character. Wrong answers only.

Does anyone have any GW 25mm square bases with a slot in them spare that I could buy? Uk based.

Still after one warhammer metal plug in halberd from the Imperial Foot Soldiers if anyone has one spare.

Me waiting for series 16 of Bob's Burgers to be added to Disney plus UK.

Eleven Dark Elf Executioners for #TheOldWorld for my Corsair raiders themed army. Two characters, and three units done now. I'm playing a friend at Warhammer World in just under two weeks, and I have two units to paint, a unit of Harpies to tidy up, and two Bolt Throwers to finish. #warhammer #wfb

It sounds like at least one, maybe a couple more, missing #DoctorWho episodes have been found with an announcement to come. It's supposed to be big so either something from an enturely missing story (such as Marco Polo), or maybe completes a partially missing story. Hopefully we will hear soon.

My copy has arrived, I look forward to seeing what the changes are and writing some lists.

Seleucid Argyraspides with "Bonus" Antigonus Monophthalmus For more pictures, please see my Just Add Water Blog here: justaddwater-bedford.blogspot.com/2025/02/sele...

Played my first GW game in ten years last Thursday night, a game of Old World. It was fun and I'm enthused to play again. It had the bones of old WFB but some noticbly differences. It was nice to get an army out that I used as a young adult.

Perry Miniatures Desert Rat Vignette Quite a few years ago now............ I painted the miniatures, the rest was up to the genius of Michael Perry Link to my blog (more pics on my blog): justaddwater-bedford.blogspot.com/search?updat...

Twelve Empire Middenheim Archers to use in Saga Age of Magic. This is the seventh unit in a challange with a friend to paint an army over the year. Painted with GW colours, Vallejo Game Colour Ghostly Grey and Model Colour White, and Army Painter Gunmetal and Plate Mail Metal on the metal parts.

Finally knuckled down and got one of the bases finished I'm currently working on. 3rd century Romans again with hand painted shield and JH backdrop. Figures are A&A, Victrix and Footsore using Aventine heads for some of them #MiniPainting #FinishedFriday #HistoricalWargaming #MiniaturePainting

As I prepared the table for the continuation of Kampfgruppe Von Luck, I took the chance to snap some photos of my completely finished British Airborne unit.

I'm literally the Walrus.

Dark Elf Dreadlord or Master for #TheOldWorld, the next unit in my raiding army. I used a Corsair champion as I wanted my general to be a Corsair Captain leading the Corsair unit. Painted with GW colours, Reikland Flesh on the skin, and Army Painter gunmetal and plate mail metal. #warhammer #wfb

Eight Empire Middenheim Halberdiers which will be a point of warriors for my Saga Age of Magic army. Painted with GW colours, Reikland Flesh on the skin, and AP gun metal and plate mail on the metal parts. No washes or contrast on the metal parts this time. #warhammer #oldhammer #paintingwarhammer

Looks like everyone was at Colours 2025, bit gutted to have missed it now. I used to go nearly every year since about 2000, but after moving to Coventry I haven't.

Avengers: Age of Gary.

I'm looking to buy 3D printed buildings for WW2 Arnhem/Netherlands. I know about Patrick Miniatures, Sabotag3d, and PaintandGlue but I wanted to see if there was any others out there.

Empire stuff for my slow build Saga: Age of Magic army. Not a fan of the blue on Knights Panther, so went for the classic John Blanche artwork colour scheme. The other knight is a Raging Heroes model from years ago that I've finally painted, plus a Marauder Dwarf. #sagaageofmagic #miniaturepainting

Just seen that former #DoctorWho script editor and writer Christopher H. Bidmead has passed away. Quite sadden to hear this as I always enjoyed lisyening him talk about Doctor Who on the DVD extras.

At the cinema to watch the original 'Jaws'.
