    I hardly use it tbh but I will start using it more as I want to progress my painting.

    I find this surprising! It would appear that the Guardian of Paints prefers the old school brush. (I have yet to use my airbrush)

    Cheers bud, much appreciated. I have an Aztek I bought years ago. Not sure how good they're considered these days. I need to possibly pick up a decent compressor in any case.

    Looks really unique, nice color scheme too!

    If I had to guess it looks like the flaming skull hand that comes in the Empire Wizards kit

    Finishing up the Lord Aquilor conversion has taken some time due to needing to make another big batch of bases, but that's done now so I can paint the base tonight and finish him off. Been a fun project. There's still a couple more Order things to get done, but I they are on the backburner for a little bit.

    I accidentally bought a new army... At the start of the week I had zero Moonclan, now I have (or have ordered) the following:

    40 Moonclan Grots
    20 Cave Squigs
    2 Mangler Squigs
    1 Collosal Squig
    1 Squig Gobba
    1 Moonclan command squad (1 Shaman, 1 Warboss on Squig, one dude with a banner, maybe another shaman?)
    4 Squig Herders
    12 Grot Fanatics
    1 Malign Portents hero

    I dunno what happened. I'm also about £60 down on a ton of basing materials including some awesome mushrooms, tree stumps, and some new mixed flock and tufts with wood bits in it - can't wait for that to arrive.

    Test model coming up at the weekend, but have a decent idea on the theme I am going with. For once I want to keep it reasonably traditional with my own twist. Watch this space... Or instagram.

    Lovely idea, I like fanatics and Squigs so much. I'm sure this is going to look awesome… Good luck with that critical mass of stuff though.

    Night goblin command from Forgeworld?

    It's 3 models, I had them they are brilliant to paint, you should have bought the Monstrous squid herd deal, you would have got the squig gobbo and saved around £25 on the package.

    A very very rough rendition of what I have in mind for the colour scheme

    Looks good. I like the coloration of the nose! Red and black will make for a striking army.

    Nice colours, you might want to stick something under the base as I found the model top heavy and always tipping over in battle, to much shroom juice.

    I'm waiting to add allies to my Ironjawz but grots are sooooo cool (why did I sell mine!!!)

    All my bases have metal washers in them due to magnetised transports so not an issue

    I tripped and my card fell into the machine and paid for it all and you can't prove otherwise.

    Not a terrible weekends progress overall, though I was slacking pretty hard. I got everything I own so far built, and made decent progress on the banner dude.
