I have finally finished painting and basing the first 1000 points for my warmaster lizardmen force. #miniaturepainting #wargaming #nerdlings

I think i can handle a late breakfast here after a late night out

Waiting for #deaconblue to come on stage. Should be a great concert.

Just finished the first 10 night goblins out what I think will be about 200. Not bad for a quick and dirty paint job. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

A couple of shots of a game of #battletech alphastrike yesterday. Clan smoke jaguar vs the combine. Some great moments a blackhawk coring my maruder as a build collapsed on top of it and the elementals learning a building won't protect them from a SRM carrier. #wargaming #nerdlings

I have spent the last couple of days working on some warmaster lizardmen. I think they are going pretty well for a smaller scale. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

I've spent the last couple of days cleaning the painting space at home. It is back in use and i have finished two Austrian officers. ##miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Summer painting binge day 12: the final day. Today is finished off the battalion command group, finishing the Austrian battalion and started work on the brigade command stand. Looking back on the last 12 days I have painted 108 28mm which isn't too shabby. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Summer painting binge day 12: finished another ten Austrians, just the command group to go and the battalion is finished. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Summer painting binge day 11: finished off the 11 elven swordsmen and started on another 10 Austrians #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Dining doesn't get much more waterfront than this

Summer painting binge day 10: finished the 10 Austrians from yesterday making just over half the battalion painted. Well on the way to finishing 11 elven swordsmen. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

I have just done my calculations and I painted 296 miniatures this year. Exceeding my goal of 250 so not too shabby. I think i will aim to cracking 300 next year. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Summer painting binge day nine: finished the 10 Austrians from yesterday with another 10 well on the way. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Summer painting binge day eight: nothing completed today as it was finally swimming weather so we headed to the beach. I did get some work done on my Austrians just there helmets and boots to finish

Summer painting binge day seven: finished 10 more elven archers and started work on some 1809 Austrians for my napoleonic project. #wargaming #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Summer painting binge day 5: finished the early war french platoon with a third squad, VB grenadiers and leaders. Totaling 19 miniatures, taking the binge total to 51 in the last 5 days. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Summer painting binge day four: i finished 12 elven archers left from Christmas eve. And completed another 10 early ww2 french. It takes my painting count for the year to 257 padding my goal of 250. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Finished the first miniatures of my summer holiday painting binge. 10 WW2 early war French riflemen. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming #nerdlings

Packing up for my holiday painting binge. I'm hoping 180 miniatures will last me the next two weeks. #miniaturepainting #Wargaming

That's the working year done for me. Cheers everyone. I hope you all have a great holiday season and get some nice miniatures from Santa.

I have just finished by miniature audit. 2108 painted 28mm miniatures across numerous systems and rules sets.

Playing bloodbowl today for the first time this century

Fired up the new forge today to test it out. 5 minutes and the thermocouple was reading 853c right before it melted. I would say it works. #blacksmithing

Teaching the junior wargamers how to play #chainofcommand this afternoon. #spreadthelard

The new forge has arrived. Just waiting on the right adaptor for the gas then I can get back to doing some metal work.

Spent the afternoon at the Australian Defence Force Academy open day. The photo is of the new recee vehicle on the left next to the M1A2 MBT. It seems strange that the recee vehicle is bigger than the tank.

Just finished setting up the table for some #battletech alpha strike on the weekend. All that time printing and painting terrain has finally paid off. #wargaming #nerdlings

Just finished the test paint scheme for my heresy ultramarines. What do you think 🤔. #wargaming #miniaturepainting

Got home from work to find the boys spending the school holidays learning to play 4th ed 40k. Parenting done right. #wargaming

Finished my grey seer for #AOS a quick paint job that took a bit over an hour to do. #wargaming #nerdlings #miniaturepainting #paintslam25

I have just finished a stone manor house for my barons war project. #wargaming #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Playing a game of #AOS with my eldest today. Things don't look positive for my skaven. #wargames #nerdlings

Just finished my first bit of terrain for #baronswar a whittle and daub building. Not too shabby if I do say so myself. #wargaming #nerdlings

Finished a test module for my planned modular wargaming table. I think it will work well. 3D printed so they should all line up properly. #wargaming #nerdlings

Barons war has arrived. Not that I was planning to start another period. #Wargaming #nerdlings

Democratic duty done time for the democracy sausage.

One suit of armor to rule them all! 🔥

The kell hounds break into the city desperately trying to reach their dependents before they are dragged off by the kuritians. #battletech #wargaming

The kuritans advan e to capture the kell hounds dependents as the hounds rush to stop them. #battletech #wargaming

Table all set up for some #battletech this afternoon. #wargaming ##nerdlings

Just finished the first 3 mechs out of a planned company of Lyran guard. A quick and cheerful paint job which will look good on the table. #battletech #nerdlings #miniaturepainting

The #battletech kickstarter has finally arrived. So much stompy mech goodness.

Finally got around to basing my Austrians just the flag to go. Not to shabby I think. #wargaming #nerdlings #paintslam25

Just finished painting the first ten Anglo-Saxons for my hastings project. Not the greatest paint jobs but should look good with 30 crammed on a base. #wargaming #paintslam25 ##nerdlings

My first batch of 3d printed Anglo-Saxons for my hastings project are undercoated and ready to go. #wargaming #miniaturepainting

This is a great version of a classic song. I suspect it will be on my play list for a while. youtu.be/VtfcZVw2p3E?...

I've been working on getting more efficient methods for storing my ever expanding collection. I think the solution for me is a full 3d printed system with removable magnetic trays. They are fully stackable as well.

Closer photo of ‘Boudicca’ 🎨 I probably spent more time on painting her than I should have, the patterns, tattoos and long hair took the longest. This is my first female bust. I was quite apprehensive at first but now I know I can do this, I am looking forward to painting lots more 😊 (Scale 1/10)🖌️
