Finally get round to finish this off.

Trying to work out what scale these are 🤔

Kyoushuneko miniatures 28mm 3 x Sherman’s and 1 x T34. A little chunky for my liking but on eBay for £20 the lot. ebay.io/m/QHnpK3

15mm Peter Pig British Paras for sale ebay.io/m/lgG4gP

The Army Paint marker is great when doing terrain. Picking out the metal parts

Something bigger on the painting table today

These would be mine

Wash, highlights and decal. Calling this one done.

Base colours down time for wash

Heretic Subjagator

Genesteeler Subjugator

Last unit built for my Rat army.

Meanwhile in the red corner

Definitely a challenge to paint. Using Vallejo’s special box set of paints for the right colours

Next up. Definitely the bad guys

We recently released our new Mediterranean Table Ready Terrain colour printed buildings which you can find over at www.warbases.co.uk

I can see why people collect these. They are just a joy to paint.

Wash applied over night and detail work begins this morning.

Some fiddly gold work but took my time Listening to Rush albums

Pleased with how they turned out.

Although limited painting time these are complete now just need basing and varnish.

One of my hobby purchases at Partizan.

Question for everyone. Any one know where I can get a 28mm Sparticus??

Work in progress

Side project

28mm Warhammer/fantasy ruined Bridge £45 plus postage. If you're at Partizan this weekend you can just collect it. DM if interested!

Some reluctant Roman allies. Had to be done really.

No hobby time this week but did have time to go through my brushes before Partizan. Yes I will buy more and actually know what the gaps in my sizes are now. Some are destined for the bin. How one from beatties will live forever

Manchester trip to IWM

Sunrise over Ashton under Lyne. Weekend break near Manchester

Holy crap I just organised my hobby desk for the next project. 😱

Very productive week in the hobby. 6 death guard and a war hound. Painted, based and now varnished. Who’d have thought I’d be spray varnishing outside on 1/10/2026. Currently 18 degrees of sunshine 😱

Ta da 🎉

Some free style basing.

Application, took a bit to load the tip. Instructions are minimal. Application is very easy, great for edge highlighting as you use the side of the brush. Dots good as no tip spread. It’s a bit big to squeeze into small spaces. Definitely like you can paint none stop. Useful on a big model. 👍

So I bought one of these speed markers at Brit Con. interested in how it covers but more importantly how it lasts. Can you use it infrequently? Will it just dry up ?? Date stamp 1/10/26

Sometimes you just have to stop and walk a way for a bit.

It's the end of the month so it's time for Yarkshire Gamers Monthly Wargames Update and it's been a busy month. New units, buildings and terrain as well as some top games, Tune in to Yarkshire Gamer now 👍 youtu.be/DaOKWNsDOx4?... #wargames #wargaming #hobby #history

Marine juice applied

End of day one for this chap too.

Last two base coats done

Two more finished

Basic base coats on. I do like Army Painter Heavy Metal from the John Blanche range really looks good.

So painting rust blown away. Feel able to tackle this today.

We are delighted to announce a fantastic 15 new Mediterranean Table Ready Terrain colour printed buildings. These are available in 28mm and we will be unveiling their release date very soon!

Start of a new week, two more death guard
