It's been over nine years since my last Battletech Classic game and oh boy was this a blast!

Ended the game with an opponent taking a hard critical hit with a PPC to their Centurion's head, and taking the pilot out of the fight!

A Chaos Space Marine Sorcerer I painted a white back. (WIP)

Pretty happy with the overall cartoony style that came out.

Do you all like Necromunda? Probably the best game GW has ever made next to Mordheim.

Here's my Cawdor gang "The Bookburners", inspired *very* loosely by the novel 'Fahrenheit 451'.

A custom Space Wolf miniature I printed and painted up for a friend for a Wrath and Glory campaign we started last year.

Loved how he turned out and the character was excellent as well.

Tyberos The Red Wake.
A miniature I 3D printed and painted for a good friend of mine.

It was a blast painting the colours and details on this model.

Some TTCombat terrain that I've had on the backburner for a little bit, finished up for use in a bunch of different wargames.

I'm aware of the banana colours and embrace it.

My brother taught me how to play Age of Sigmar for the first time and it was a blast.

Apothecary Biologis for my Salamander's 4th Company.

I enjoyed the change of pace with mostly white on this model.

My fully custom 3D printed Lieutenant for my Salamander's 4th Company army. This was a fun project and just reminded me how great 3D printing is as a hobby medium.

My tactical squad and assault intercessors for my Salamander's 4th Company army.

Loved working with both of these kits-as they both have lots of bits for modularity.

My version of the Terminator Librarian in my Salamander's 4th Company scheme. Love how this guy turned out.

My Space Marine Salamander's 4th Company army

I love how these are turning out, but adding to the army has taken me far more time than I would have liked.

The prow of a Viking ship docked in Wolin, Poland. The craftsmanship on the wood was stunning.

One of my favourite shots from a Halloween nighttime photoshoot with my partner.

The stars and small oil lamp really set the scene for this.

A model I've named 'The Archivist'.

My interpretation of an Adeptus Administratum archive seeker, looking for ancient tomes, scrolls, and pict captures, deep in Archivum Vaults.

My full soft kit for 'Viking Era' reenactment.

Based heavily off secondary sources like the Book of Kells illustrations and the Book of Durrow & few Norse finds.

Here I am directing the kids to attack my comrades.

Currently under construction, hope they bring this spooky tunnel back.
