Thanks all! And @JTSleep for the pile of likes! ...also finished some Castellax robots to add some variety to my heresy force. They are Iron Hands after all, so they definitely have a bunch of robots lying around in the legion storage lockers. Spoiler: Legion Castellax They are dreadnought-base sized, nice to have some more walkers walking around. Need to work on some other dreadnoughts!
Had fun taking pictures of my legion Esoterist! Spoiler: Legion Esoterist I also was experimenting using different color lights to take photos, came out pretty cool! Spoiler: the war room Lore for this guy us he is a secret Alpha Legion infiltrator who has gained the ear of the warband's Iron Father. Exactly how his manipulations will bear fruit remain yet to be seen...
Wow its the last day of the year over here in Minnesota, hard to believe as 2025 was both tough and flew by. Very happy with my hobby progress, I painted a lot of stuff that I had lying around from 2024, and bought a bunch of new stuff at Adepticon this year (that I still have to work through!). In total I painted 245 minis and pieces of terrain. Didn't photograph the terrain this year (and forgot one infinity robot ) but the minis look great! Projects included: Infinity Nomads/Xmen, Aleph, and Haqqislam Turnip28 Frostgrave Warband War of the False Primarch Flesh Eaters, Jade Talons, Iron Guard, and some Imperial Guard Necromunda Ice Squats 30k Sons of Medusa/Harbingers of Taelus The game matt is one of my Christmas presents very cool cyberpunk-Infinity game matt. Lots of proto-Sons of Medusa for 30k this year: Spoiler Many more projects- Turnip28, Infinity, and War of the False Primarch. Spoiler The Flesh Eaters were one of the coolest things I worked on this year, really enjoyed weathering these guys. And my growing Infinity Nomads/X-Men force, of which I have plans to paint more this upcoming year. I also got these two Maghariba Guards completed, after having them sitting in my pile of shame for two years. Glad they are done, and I have been enjoying taking them to games! Spoiler Bonus photo of some overly-photogenic Ice Squats!: Glad to have made it this far. These pictures mean a lot to me this year as even though the past few weeks (today in particular) have been challenging, I decided to rope by 6-year-old along with helping me photograph these minis this year. She was SUPER excited and came over to help me line them all up, then grabbed her ipad to take pictures. And you know what?! Some of the picture she took turned out better than mine! A bunch of the ones I posted above were hers, along with this last one. She did a great job, I hope we can hobby or game more together in the future. While the entire family has been battered down by Nurgle in the last two weeks of the year, here is to a good 2026!
Oh yeah and before I forget, here were the last minis I painted in 2025, some Infinity nomads! Mr. Sinister (converted Posthuman to use as an HVT): Spoiler: Mr. Sinister Meteor Zond, one of my favorite minis of the year: Spoiler: Meteor Zond With his two robot buddies: And last mini for 2025, a tiny Tinbot in the fashion of my favorite X-Man: Spoiler
