Something, not completely, different. Still sci-fi but much smaller now. A 3d printed dropship, 6mm/epic/1:300.

Tonight I played a game of Midgard with @jurdj.bsky.social. Orcs versus Dwarves as practice for a game at Clog Lard 2025, 5 april. #spreadthelard #midgard #cloglard #murpysheroes

I have painted 2 more Komodo mech suits in different colours. Each photographed in front of a perfectly matching John Hodgson background. I decided the colours first so the perfect match is a wonderful accident.

Continuing the theme. Komodo armoured suit. Painted orange to get away from the dull greens I used on previous power armours. Another one from the pile of Shame. The model is now available from @heresyminis.bsky.social, but I got mine from the previous manufacturer ages ago.

A theme seems to be developing🤔. 3 new figures in powered armour painted. Anvil Industry Ajax Exo-mechs armed with heavy grenade launchers.
January 24, 2025 at 5:25 PM
Finished the last of the Hasslefree Lobo Powered Armour figures. 8 Figures from the pile done. (According to the wargamers ratio of 2 unpainted versus 1 painted figures I can now go and buy 16 new ones.

The Grey Mountain Collective Dwarves facing the unruly dead horde. #Midgard #MurphysHeroes
January 18, 2025 at 8:36 PM
Tomorrow I hope to play my second game of #Midgard.
The dwarves of the Grey Mountain Collective are going to meet and hopefully crunch some undead wandering about in the valleys between those grey mountains. #SpreadTheLard #MurphysHeroes

28mm escapee from the pile of shame. This one must have been in the pile for at least 15 years before finally getting a paintjob. Hasslefree Lobo class powered armour. 1 down 7 to go
January 10, 2025 at 11:17 PM
Drop troopers finished. Still have to find the perfect game to use them in. Probably something like What a Drop Trooper #SpreadTheLard
January 8, 2025 at 4:23 PM
Saturday we played a game of Sharp Practice at the club #MurphysHeroes. A force of French and Italians will sweep a small hamlet to find a deserter and an escaped spy. #sharppractice #spreadthelard

Drop troops in powered armour, painted for the Winter painting challenge #murphysheroes. 3D printed models by Anvil Industry.

Last saturday we played a game of Hypersteel Nightmare. 6mm platoon level scifi. Where my lovely tanks were jumped and torn apart by mechanical horror spiders😭 #6mm #hypersteelnightmare #scifiwargame
December 29, 2024 at 4:25 PM
2nd day of Christmas I painted a ... sea lion? 54mm Briskars mini.
December 27, 2024 at 9:41 AM
At Crisis, formerly at Antwerp, a friend suckered me into starting with a French fantasy skirmish game, "Briskars", and into painting the miniatures by the End of March 25🤦‍♂️. So here is the first, a 54mm anthropomorphic walrus shaman. 1 down, 11 to go🥺.

Introducing a new player to Sharpe Practice. Austrians encounter Italians ~1809 69pnts aside. The new Grenzer see the elephant. #SharpPractice #SpreadTheLard #TooFatLardies
December 21, 2024 at 10:27 PM
It took a while to finish these Grenzer for #SharpPractice #TooFatLardies. Finally matching my Italians for number of skirmishers
December 19, 2024 at 6:20 PM
Sharpe Practice ~1810 game with Italians trying to intercept the British carrying of an important prisoner. #SpreadtheLard

Just before the cat started helping. Snow troll on a lead, led by a 15mm dwarf.
December 15, 2024 at 10:50 AM
Cat helps out. Go do something useful, I need this corner of the table😺
December 15, 2024 at 10:46 AM
The start of our first attempt at a Midgard game. Dwarfs versus Dark Elves, 15mm figures #Midgard. Draw with both sides loosing 3 units. The Dwarvish militia was mauled by Heavy Cavalry but the Heavy infantry took out several units of Dark Elf archers. Out of the box for the first time in 15 years.
