2025 Update

It's been, uh, a few years now... a lot of things have changed! I did a lot of kitbashing during the pandemic and it really helped to de-stress me during, well, stressful times. Nowadays, I've sold pretty much everything I was working on - all my Necromunda, Blood Bowl, and Titanicus... gone - and I'm pretty happy about it to be honest!

I'm currently working on building a small 3000pt army to play Horus Heresy with a friend of mine and... that's it. A single game, starting small, and I've enlisted my wife (something else that's changed since this original post, ha) to make sure the collecting doesn't get out of hand/overwhelming and that I finish what I start.

I'm also a little more relaxed about how I'm tracking my various projects. I've always been a list-maker and love being able to check things off as I go but I also recognize that if you make a list with too much on it, or make too many lists, it can feel overwhelming, so I'm shaking up how I'm posting to this thread and just doing it all willy-nilly more relaxed. No need for a TOC for a forum post - I'm just here to share my modelling adventure with anyone who might be interested.

Cheers!



So I decided that, to keep track of what I'm thinking about working on, what I'm actually working on, and what I've finished (each list smaller than the last sadly...), I'd do the Yak-thing and start a blog.

I am not a painter and, until the summer of 2021, was not a miniature gamer. Now I have multiple models for Adeptus Titanicus, Necromunda, Blood Bowl, and Core Space. I'll try to break down each one below and link to a new post when I make one. Here's hoping I'm able to stay on top of this thread better than my model backlog!

Before you start to try uploading lots of pics of them all, make sure you use a Photoshop app or some such to shrink them. I didn't know at first till another yakker let me in on the secret ;) good luck with the blog and look forwards to seeing some pics of the kitbashing and painting.

You’re still a “new member” so a lot of stuff is locked up to prevent Spammers. A few posts will make you a “juvie” and some functions will unlock. Subscribing to the Tribe unlocks more functions and gives you a bigger size photo gallery.

As Bran said, using a photo editor to scale down your pics will save you loads of space so you can upload even more pics.

Ah, that makes sense - and good to know! Preferably, I'd like to add a post-reply to this thread for each project then link to that reply above in the main post, like a Table of Contents, to make it easy to go through.

Then again, if my ambition for a thread is as great as my ambition for assembling and painting minis...

At first I was all “I like the hooded look” (like they were Cawdor or something…) but then I realized those aren’t hoods…. Are they Eldar helmets?

And now that I'm a Juve... I can edit posts I've made!

Also Imgur is great for offsite hosting/resizing - quite handy!
 
Your ogryns look like they'll be a lot of fun. Is that a re-purposed Marvel Juggernaut figure in the middle?

It's an Artel model, not even modified. They have a few more superhero "proxies" but this one just looked like he'd make a great gang leader for Necromunda sooo... ta-da!
