Since my blog post then, I painted 145 miniatures. They add up to: 94 goblins, mawpups and … Continue reading 2022/23 painting tally

A few months ago, I had over 40 halberdiers printed and painted a test model. Content with the quality of the print and painting, … Continue reading Summer painting
First things first! I completed my goblin army! YaY! For this, I only needed my 2nd regiment of fleabags. Here's them finished! It's six original fleabags plus one mounted flaggit from vanguard. Apparently, I forgot to finish the basing in this picture, something I have remedied later. Together with my original fleabags, they can be … Continue reading Painting without focus

This week, I nearly finished the above model. It only needs highlights, a base, crew (in progress too) and assembly. … Continue reading MonsterMarch, week 2&3
