Everybody in teaching knows this teacher and knows that 'cheeky and silly' means 'casually racist and homophobic'

Lots of progress on these guys today. I might finish Bjorn tomorrow, I’ve not touched Logan’s head so he’ll be a job for next week.

Took my traditional looking for problems photos. The face isn’t great and I’ve spotted a couple of touch ups needed but not bad overall.

Terminators done, For Russ and the Allfather and all that.
They are really lovely models to paint, my ‘method’ is still evolving and I spent some money on a Patreon which really helped with the power weapons. I’ll get some individual shots when I’ve painted the rims of the bases.

Bloodclaws finished, they aren’t perfect and I learned a lot painting them but I’m pleased with how they’ve turned out. Now I just need to find snow that doesn’t turn green.

Question for the folks taking decent pics of their minis - how do you get good squad pics?
Nearly done with my blood claws, pretty happy with how they’ve turned out so far. Just need to hose them down with varnish when the basing stuff has dried.

First batch of blood claw heads nearly done, I couldn’t resist a green haired punky chap with a tat (which does translate if you’re bored)

I thoroughly approve of the way these heads sit on the sprue. I also can’t help wondering why so many 1/35 plastic heads are so naff when GW can do this in 28mm

I think because I’m used to big vehicles and such the batch painting approach works for me. I’m a bit envious of people who can paint multiple figures sequentially and get the same result

Again inspired by @owolf.bsky.social I’ve tried to up my photo game, this time showing Thunderwolf Cavalry attacking along with a couple using arty lighting (night attack and dawn attack I think)
