Had an amazing weekend at the Shadowcon narrative event for AoS, five great games against lovely people, and lots of fun solving puzzles and trading relics. #ShadowCon25

Lots of effort went into this series, why not give it a click (if only for all the pretty pictures of stormcast and extremely cool header image Rob drew)

Black Library do such lovely work with these limited edition hardcovers and it’s really exciting to see my first in the wild. Abraxia: Spear of the Everchosen is up for preorder next Saturday!

I think the wargaming community need to move past the;

'Don't tell my partner how much I spend on my hobby' jokes.

I mean, dysfunctional relationships are kinda funny, I guess?

Spent some time this week revisiting some of my fyreslayers, which were the first army I painted for AoS, and refreshing the basing and some of the highlights. First time I've gone back to an old paint job, but I'm much happier with them now.

I did a hobby blog covering the mastodon build! Hardship, anger, pretty miniature photos, a brief explanation for why long thin resin parts warp. It's got it all.

My main AoS project this year is to expand my Seraphon army out to 2000 points, this bastiladon is the first new model I've added.

The Kruleboyz terrain piece from Games Workshop. It's a wooden tower with a swampy base. There's a crude wooden face at the top which is painted purple.

Got my Kruleboyz tower painted up, think I'm out of excuses for not getting them on the table now.

I got to paint the new Doom Diver Catapult and Frazzlegit Shaman on War-Wheela for @goonhammer.com! These things are amazing, so much texture and character. Check out my review here: www.goonhammer.com/age-of-sigma...
