Magnetising the Somethingagore

Table is ready for transport on Waitangi Day to Nick's place for some gaming. Free Dinner table and some MDF board screwed to the top. Fits snugly in the back of the people mover too. We ended up playing about a dozen games between all 5 of us on the day in practice for NZTC.

...And some pictures of magnetising I did for Fern's Somethingagore. I used 1mm by 2mm magnets with one for the head and 2 setas for each of the arms as they were too heavy for one. Overall came out pretty good.

Somethingagore ready and prepped.

Just because you wanted the miniatures to paint

Have you ever bought miniatures justy because you wanted to paint them. Not just play...paint.

Wrath of Kings

A few months ago I opted in with a mate of mine to back Wrath of Kings kickstarter and I went in for Teknes faction. It seems they are releasing some aboslutely fabulous miniatures. one of the most recent updates has some awesome miniatures. Probably wont play the game but love the minis.

Warmahordes, Puppet Wars and Malifaux WIP post skitterleap

It's been a while since last non - warhammer post and we're fully into Warmahordes at the moment. It's turning out to be a blast and Chris Otton is running a Journeyman league at our club.  This is what is on our painting trays at the moment post Skitterleap.

Fern's Ogryn Spears (I call them all James Hetfield).

Fern's Forsaken, Lilyth and Carnivean

Fern's Shepherd and 4 Rippers.

My trollbloods getting a lick of paint and some tartan. Just waiting on Fennblades, Trollkin Champions and Krielstone.

Ashely's Circle coming along nicely.

Malifaux Entertainers, Pandora, Candy and Undead whores getting first coasts and washes/inks.

More of entertainers, mannequins and undead whores. It's nice to paint some dresses occasionally. chose nice bright colours. Not sure I will ever play the game but I have Perdita's crew as well to assemble.

Puppetwars coming along nicely and a reaper bones mini... and yes that is two more Seamus's

4ground laser  precut and prepainted house for the club donated by John from Pukeko Games.

The Legion are coming...

So, once again, the wifey has stolen the blog, since Sam's so busy over at Kiwihammer nowadays.  And I have a new pet project, to give me a break from painting the 160 Skaven sitting on the painting tray at the moment.

Yes, I have started collecting Warmachine: Hordes, in preparation for starting our local gaming club's Journeyman league next week.  And even better, my daughter has asked for Hordes minis for her birthday and is going to jump into the league herself.

So now to assemble, paint and learn the rules for my brand new Legion of Everblight faction, as well as the basics of Circle of Orboros (to teach my daughter).

Gotta love a hobby that drags in the whole family and gets us hanging out together.

Love to all till next time,
Fern

Wifey's monstrous goodness

Someone on Twitter was asking Sam just how large the Reaper Kaladrax & Nethyrmaul models were...  And as he's a Brettonian and VC player, I decided to stage a couple of scale shots for him :)

So, here's to you, JW

Cheers,
Fern

Haven't heard much about raging heroes kickstarter but just early days yet. They are 3d sculpting from what I gather. Dark Elves for Games workshop are rumoured for 2 months so RH might kick off their next Kickstarter then.

Mierce next kickstarter is on the 16th September it appears. Hmmm.
