Hobby Round up Week 41

Its all a bit quiet in the hobby front, but here are some pictures to keep you excited.

Elliot has finally finished his Nurgle Blight Knights, with a lovely splattering of blood on the snow. Shame their on the wrong shape bases ;)

Neil has painted Surtr the legendary Fire Giant, he will be used in his Norse for 'Of Gods and Mortals'

And finally some work in progress, Chris has been working on two Hellflayers for his Slaanesh Age of Sigmar army, with the chariots and Seekers done, and the multitude of Daemonnettes on their way.

Hobby Round up Week 37

Hey everyone, we're back!

After a quiet week with nothing to report, and some illness, its time to post some more hobby updates


Elliot has began work on some Nurgle Blightkings, I'm sure he'll see sense and put them on round bases soon enough.

Frazer has continued work on some Malifaux Ten Thunders for Dave, going for a vibrant yellow and blue scheme

And finally for this week, Big Papa has been beavering his way through his 15mm Guildball project.
The Fishermen are progressing nicely and the Butchers have just been started. They also have a pitch ready to play on once they are finished.

Hobby Round up Week 12

It may be 24 hours later than usual, but the wait will be worth it!

First this week are some more pictures of the Nurgle Chaos Warriors that Neil has been working on over the last few weeks. Seven models are now there or there abouts

 

 

 

Simon has been busy again, not only with his own stuff, but with some Chaos Marines for Next Door Matt.

 

Simon has continued work on his Space Wolves and now has some more Terminators that are ready for the table top.

 

 

Si loves to build the models that others hate, and even those that they don't!

 

He has been recently been building Chaos Space Marines for Next Door Matt, with a Lord, some foot sloggers and a Rhino (not pictured) now ready for some paint.

 

 

Hobby Round up Week 11

Happy Mothers day!

 

Not a great deal of hobby to report this week.

 

First up, Neil has continued to plough through some Avatars of War 'Nurgle Warriors'. Having built them last week, now they have a white undercoat and in some cases a myriad of different inks

 

 

 

Simon continues to beaver away on his Space Wolves. His Terminator squad now has a few more colours on them.

 

 

Finally for this week we have Frazer's efforts. He continues to plough through the large amount of Dark Elf Witches he owns, but inches ever closer to bringing them to a Wednesday game.

 

Frazer has also continued to work on some Lonewolf Terminators....

 

 

... and whilst hunting through the garage, unearthed some of his Chaos Marine collection that will be hitting eBay soon.

 

 

Hobby Round up Week 10

Welcome to another visual feast of hobby updates!

 

First up we have some Wolf Guard from Frazer. Many years ago, we created a squad of Space Wolves converted to look like members of the club. Back then we were all in power armour, but now after taking part in many battles, the most decorated of us are being immortalised in Tactical Dreadnought Armour.

 

First up are Si, Neil and Dave.

 

 

Next from Frazer's work in progress pile is some Dropzone Commander vehicles that he is painting for Dave. As you can see they are resplendent in an urban camo scheme

 

 

Simon is next and contrary to the photos he is not a hobby vampire, just appears to prefer taking photos in the dark!

 

First we have some more Space Wolves, this time for his personal force.

 

 

Simon is our resident Bob the Builder, helping out those of the club who are unable to or prefer not to build their own figures.

 

This week he has been helping out Next Door Matt by constructing his Forge Fiend. He has gone the who hog by magnetising the head and weapons.

 

Neil, with a bit more time on his hands at the moment, has been working on some Avatars of War Corrupters, which are lovely models but a beast to glue together.

 

He has done a test scheme on one of them, using a white undercoat and a selection of different inks. For the observant of you, no that isn't the original head, but in fact a Heresy miniatures Blight head.

 

Oh and he also drew a face on a sqush... say hello to Sidney...

 

 

Finally this week, Chris has finished his first 10 Martians from Mantic Game's Mars Attacks game. He will go back to some of the bases in the future and add some trash, with ideas of how to do discarded fizzy pop cans top of his agenda.

Hobby round up 2015 week 3

Week three already!?

This week its all about building things.

First up we have Simon, who has been building, err... buildings...

 

At last years Salute we spent a large amount of the club funds on some 4ground buildings to increase the amount of scenery in our WW2 games. Once back home in Bristol we gave them all to Simon who built them all for us.

 

This is the Hotel complex, including Stables which he has recently finished.

 

 

Next on his building list, is this Norse Longhouse, which we'll be using when we begin Elliot's Saga campaign.

 

Talking of Elliot, between writing the rules for the campaign, he has been building some reinforcements for his Warriors of Chaos Nurgle force.

 

 

With The End Times introducing some beautiful new models, a few of us have invested in some figures, which will hopefully hit the battlefield soon

Hobby Round Up 2015 Week 1

Welcome to the first Hobby Round Up of 2015. After a quiet last few weeks of 2014, some of us have been busy over the holiday period.

Frazer has been busy finishing off Matt's Modern British Paratroopers to be used in Skirmish Sangin.

 

 

 

 

Frazer has also been working on some 15mm tanks, hopefully we'll see them finished and on the table soon.

 

 



 

Chris got some new Dark Eldar models for his birthday in October, and the first one, a Voidraven Bomber, is finally finished.

 

 

 

Chris has also done a test figure in preparation to adding 1000pts of Nurgle Warriors of Chaos to his Nurgle Daemons. This is a Nurgle Ogre and was mainly an experiment in using the Games Workshop technical paints, namely Typhus Corrosion, Ryza Rust and Blood for the Blood God.
