Back to the Mortal Realms

Last year was great. I painted up a full army, I attended my first and second tournament ever. GW decided to ditch the old persona and began the great process of renewal. My commission painting company grew in clients and painters, all in all things are good. I played more games last year than the past three, but still not nearly enough (there's never enough gaming). After my last tournament I was a little burned out. I cant stress enough I really enjoyed the events I went to and will

Preparing for my first tournament

I've always wanted to attend an event and often between life, money, and kids it's always been just an idea that's never blossomed into a reality. A few weeks back I was casually looking through the events section on this site and noticed a one day 1000pt event in Leeds. Not being very far I mentioned to the wife that it might be cool to go, not really expecting a response (she often goes deaf when hobby is mentioned) she responds with "cool you should go,". I paused expecting some sort of barga

I got wood/woods

Still exceptionally busy with work. I haven't really had the time or peace to sit down and do any of my death or Sylvaneth for myself . I have been able to finish these 3 wyldwoods to a standard i'm happy with  . I'm unsure as to the amount I will need but I think 3 for 1000pt games is enough for now. I promise I will try to post something interesting soon. M

Death to life

I haven't posted for a while as I've been super busy with work and getting married. I've been lucky though and have somehow found the time to get loads of games in with my death army.  I've really struggled with motivation when it comes to the death. I do want to add more units and beef up existing ones, but my limited attention span has been derailed by Sylvaneth. I just love everything about them fluff, minis, rules, etc.... So here's a few pics of some test minis which wil

Mourngul Monday

I finally finished my Mourngul, really struggled with this model due to a little painters block. I'm kinda demotivated with the undead at the moment, possibly due to an upcoming Sylvaneth release . I think its just a phase, as i've done so much using the same palette etc... that I may just need a break before finishing the army. I've still got a few things to paint, Manfred being one of them, so hopefully I get my mojo back and i'll have more to show soon. All the best M

My second post (it's legit now, i'm doing a blog)

Thanks for the comments peeps! No gaming unfortunately this week as my local GW is not doing late night gaming. something to do with manager being on holiday or some other excuse. Commissions wise, its been exceptionally busy with some serious late nighters to try and meet deadlines. This has left me a little burnt out, so personal hobby time might just be a cup of tea and a delve into the Godbeasts campaign book. I have some stuff currently being worked on and a few finished

Prologue

It finally happened. Last Thursday my Gates of Azyr finally opened and I popped my AOS cherry!. It's been a difficult year, if not for illness, deadlines , access to the car, kids extra curricular activities, weather, blah blah blah, I would have probably played earlier. So I drove to one of my local GW stores and played a very enjoyable game against a real person. After the game on the drive home I was surprised how good It felt. It didn't matter that my opponent had unpainted m
