A Rather Pink Update…..

Well, after a telling off from our Editor in Chief I’ve cracked out the camera to produce some sub standard finished pics of what I have been up to on my weeks off and show the Pink Kriel off fully!

Hordes Genesis: The Pink Kriel Cometh.

Well it’s day 2 of the Barbed Thorns Hordes coverage and it’s the turn of the Trollbloods. Now in case you don’t know, becoming a Press Ganger means you lose your gaming prowess (your’re next Jase!) so playing isn’t really my strong point. I also tend to put lists together by ‘ohh that’s pretty’ rather ...

Red Knickers and Great Racks are now in fashion!

So Mr Neil has decreed (despite my pleas for Zombie Pirates) that the Skarre list be the winner, so the Skarre List is now my Cryx army of choice. However the Skarlock is being swapped for Blood Hag for the sake of getting her painted with the full list.

So now I have the challenge I think I need a ...

Yeah, Ok, I know this is a bit of a Band Wagon jumper but I need the help, the encouragement and the pressure to actually finish an army. So we have another Challenge!

I am really into my Cryx at the moment and with the Forces of Cryx being out, and having snagged most of the ...

Lich Lord Venethrax, Done.

Started last night (thanks to Jase Jamersons prompting!) and finished tonight while watching The Mentalist on the telly (and totally missing the news!)

After his stunning performance on his first outing on the table he got bumped up the painting ladder. Plus being metal, it was quite easy….

Enjoy.
