I'm Callum. Painting wargaming minis occasionally and hoping to play a game or two.
I have lacked the motivation to work on anything recently. I have managed to build these 2 though.
1 more to go and then maybe we paint?

Broke the chariot last night trying to tweak the banners (glue came out lumpy and I hadn't noticed until the primer was on).
Pivoted the idea and now have this. I quite like how it's coming together and will have a different silhouette to my other chariots now.

Working on a base for my dragon. It will look like someone got burnt whilst trying to steal the dragon's gold.

12 out of 16 warriors built. These models have been a bit of a pain. They'll probably need some gap filling. Pure nostalgia fueling this project.

I am liking how this chariot is coming together.

Today I worked on my sorcerer's new chariot a little. I kept catching the decorations on the poles so they came off. I need to find something to replace them now that won't snap as easily. Something more sorcerous

Super pleased with what I've got built tonight.
Frog for scale

Galrauch update: pushed through and finished the build stage! This thing is ridiculous and I love it, even if it's mostly paperclips and baking powder at this point.

Galrauch Update: the metal spines have all been pinned. Drilling these holes was time consuming and probably overkill, but I enjoyed the process.

This was much easier to build than the metal Galrauch I'm working on. This thing looks very cool

The heads and arms have been pinned. Will need to fill some gaps.
The spines are giving me some pause. Not sure whether to pin them or not. Also not sure what order they go in or where. No box art or instructions. Webpage pictures aren't clear either.

It's been a fun build so far though

Galrauch update: assembly has begun. Pinning each bit together and adding some baking powder to set the super glue in the joins is taking time, but it feels a lot more secure (I'm still trying to be gentle). This thing will be hefty once it's done.

The main takeaway from my first 2 games of old world is: use movement trays.
Spent my lunch putting these together to use whilst I learn the ropes (I might need a 6 wide one for the warriors).

I've not had to assemble something like this since I was a teenager. Always wanted a Galrauch though. It was released around the time I bought my first white dwarf. They were doing articles on each of the chaos gods.

Progress update: Khorne's newest good boy has it's head attached. I think the green stuff work is done. Really happy with the jaw muscles as I haven't tried that before

Working on a chaos spawn for my warriors of chaos. Built from a gorebeast, some skulls and... a big tongue

In addition to The Old World, I also started kit bashing a mini for Trench Crusade a week or so ago

Bought myself a little treat after listening to an interview with one of the authors on a politics podcast. Never really read any Dredd before, but enjoyed the two films.

Had my first game of The Old World at Element Games last night. Really enjoyed it and even got to set my Giant against a Hellpit Abomination!
