Imperial Knight progress
Last time.i posted about the knight I had the legs and a couple of other bits built. The project went in to a bit of a hiatus as I waited for the magnets that I ordered to arrive. Once they did, I was already working on another project and the knight took a bit of a back seat. Now however it's at the for front of the paint bench and after magnetising up all the various parts, I've been continuing on with the painting. Once it's all done I will lay it all out and show all the magnets that I have added, plus some pinning as the waist magnets weren't as good as I would have liked, but that was a me issue rather than a magnet issue.

Tyrannic War vets
These are some old metal models that were part of the haul I brought last year. I do love the old metal models, as I still think that they are characterful and detailed, maybe not as crisply as modern plastic models but more so that the equivalent aged plastic models.

Statue and Assassins
So, I have quite the back log of posts to get through. As I mentioned previously, while I haven't been posting very much recently, and I certainly haven't hit my self imposed once a week target, I have been busy painting and modelling away in the background. First up are.my assassin models and the sisters statue, which I think we're first featured back in August 2023! That's 6 months ago! They have been painted up for a while, especially the statue, but just not posted up here.
First up however, is the Vindicare. This has always been one of my favourite assassin's, and even when separated from the rest of the diorama he still looks good. The fact that his gun is pointing downwards is irrelevant as he will always be posted to a vantage point somewhere.Friday 2 February 2024
Hero Quest
This post is not about 40k or any other project that I may have on the go, which is none, but is actually about that classic RPG Hero Quest. My son received a copy for Christmas this year, after becoming obsessed with it on our Orkney. He has also set himself a challenge to get it all painted, something he is making quick progress on!
He has painted up over half the minutes now and has been actively recruiting players from our house and his friends, some.more.willing than others! I have contributed by painting the doors, or the boring bits, as they were going to be to repetitive for his liking!
Here are a few in games from a game he played with his friends.
