Twas my birthday this past weekend, and we had a quietish one!
On Saturday we went to Newcastle and I was able to hang out with some of my nephews and share a hot chocolate with them, whilst also popping into Warhammer for a bit of paint and for Lindsay to buy me a present, plus got the model of the month!
Sunday, we went to Megans parents, had a lovely beef dinner and some jam rolly polly!
My presents were nice, and I had a really nice weekend.
What I Am Modelling
This Captain was pulled out of a DOOMBOX and got painted up for the Blood Ravens, was a limited edition Captain, and had to be rebased onto a 32mm base as he was on a 25mm one
I printed out this Mortificator for the Word Bearers, and painted him up, to give myself a dude to prod around the dreadnoughts
And a Tactical Squad of Ultramarines I have had sitting in my pile of shame for well over a decade, they probably don’t have much of a life left in 40K, but hey, at least they got painted!
They came out of the DOOMBox and were also on 25mm bases and needed putting onto 32mm ones
Also coming out of the DOOMBox was Cypher, Lord of the Fallen
What’s next in the painting plan?
- Blood Angels Land Speeders
- Myari’s Purifiers
- Tempestus Aquilons x 11
- Red Brigade Warband
- Death Korps of Krieg Engineers x 6
- Dark Angels Firestrike Servo Turrets x 2
- Veletaris Section x 10
- Grey Knights Librarian and Brotherhood Terminators x 5
- Dracosan
- Heretic Legion Warband
What Tabletop Games I am Playing
Played my next Combat Patrol League game against Dave and his Arldari, and yeah that was a big loss because the Eldar move very quickly and my dice rolls were terrible
What Video Games I Am Playing
Still deep into Cyberpunk 2077 and I have now put in 84 hours and other than finishing the end of Kerry Eurodynes story, I am about to go to the point of no return!
Also still streaming Assassin’s Creed Syndicate

I am listened to The Traitors Hand by Sandy Mitchell in my quest to do the Cain stores again, and that was as good as I remembered!
What I Am Creating
We published the Raven Guard Painting Video
