It's been a busy couple of weeks, so not much hobby has been done. However, Barry the Canoneer now has his very own Instagram account www.instagram.com/barrythesigm...

I've also been plodding away on some Embershard Tokens, not finished yet, but already starting to look good!

being creative is not a you have it or don't type of thing.

creativity is a muscle, you must work it, and hone it.

everyone is creative, just some of us are real gym rats about it.

A total fan moment was a big bonus of the weekend not only did we get to play next to the Rascle town 'Bigeture' but also got to chat with @roguehobbies.bsky.social 😮 B brought the Richmond Club mascot 'Shef'.

Lots of lessons learnt and areas to go and think about and practice. But #Gotrek Gurnisson and #Barry need to have a big think about how the let the side down & how they are going to amend their ways! G scored no hits all weekend and Barry only did 2 points of damage! #Aos #AgeOfSigmar #Cities #Fun

First ever GT this weekend. I was aiming at just going & playing and learning but also managed to win one round! A totally enormous thank you to all the tSN team and community & especially to @sixdiceskills.bsky.social for making the boy and me so welcome. 1/2 #AoS #Cities #ageofsigmar

Very odd Friday 😮 1st trip to MacD to drop Boy for work. Then a funeral for a longstanding church member - yes I know I'm supposed to be on holiday! The final push to get everything sorted for our first GT. Not as finished as I would like but it will have to do. #AoS @sixdiceskills.bsky.social

Not quite as much painting as I had hoped for on first day of Holidays. But still progress non the less. Zenestra has been part finished for almost a year! So if nothing else that's a win. #AoS #Warhammer #ageofsigmar #Zenestra #citiesofsigmar

Then a bit of time spent painting and got my Freeguild Cavalier Marshall to a standard good enough for the tournament (I hope) with @sixdiceskills.bsky.social. This takes me to 850 points, will hit 1000 tomorrow as the Cavaliers are almost there. #AoS #CitiesOfSigmar #TempestsEye 2/2

Today's been a mixed day. Rest day so went to visit Hobby Workshop to get Gotrek Gurnisson. Nice lunch out. Then managed to avoid a very nasty accident at 70mph when the car in the next lane pulled directly into us! Quick reaction and a large central reservation left only some scratches. 1/2
