Progress Update

So It's been a while since I posted one of these but I suppose it's time to post another update of what I have managed to get done over the last couple of weeks (which isn't a lot really). Having been working on some single figures I haven't been cracking down and churning out models for an army (which will probably change in the next couple of weeks), but without further ado let's get into the pictures.

Weekly update...?

So this isn't as weekly as I would have liked but I have managed to get a bunch of stuff done since the last time I posted. Managed to get some bits and pieces done for my talons force, built some Age of Sigmaer for the up coming Daughters of Khaine releases and started a new painting project.

Weekly update

So I have no major break throughs of the new year so far but I have managed to get some bits painted and have started some new projects. So I thought I might as well do some kind of an update in the mean time. So what have I been doing since I got back to hobbying after the holiday break.

First game of the year down at the club

A look back on 2017

So I thought I'd look back at what I've managed to do over the pervious year, projects that I have started or finished, the models that I have painted, the events I have attended, my first major forays into the hobby social media world and a little round up of my time working for GW. Warning: this will probably be a long post, with plenty of pictures to break it up, but a long read non-the-less. 

Most of my space wolves as they stand at the end of the year

The Path to Path2Confrontation: part 3

So with 2 weeks to go and with the end in sight I feel like it is time for another update. I haven't got very much to do left (which I am glad about). So what exactly have I been getting on with around moving into a new property.....

The painting pile last week

Blood Ravens

So when Dark Imperium was announced I decided that I wanted to go back and do some space marines and edge highlighting after my Talons of the Emperor. I also decided that I needed to do something than Space Wolves, both paint scheme wise and basing wise. So I settled on Blood Ravens on a desert world. So without a further a do here is where I am so far with the army and some bits and pieces that I am still working on.

The Path to Path2Confrontation: part 2

So I've been cracking on with the painting since the last post about about Path2Confrontation. So I thought I would give you all a little bit of an updated in the progress. So far I've managed to finish, Russ' base, a whirlwind scorpius, and the lascannon arms for my mortis contemptor.

The Path to Path2Confrontation

So at the beginning of November I am taking my space wolves to the Emperors Paths Heresy one day event. So I thought I'd document a little bit of the journey over the next couple of weeks as I bring my force up to what I want it to be for the event. So without further a do lets get to it...

Looking Forward to June

Time for another update about some upcoming bits and pieces. I'm attending a couple of events and meeting with some people in June so have a whole bunch of bits to finish off for that plus obviously painting up a new army for 8th edition and deciding on an Age of Sigmar army to actually finish off.

New Army - Custodes

So I thought I'd do a little writing about my newest army the Talons of the Emperor, or more specifically the Custodes part of that list. I have just shy of 1500pts at the time of writing (although I have some upgrade packs coming in the post which'll bring it to 1750pts). So Below are my thoughts on how they work and why I'll run them they way I'm planning on running them.

Regaining the Hobby Mojo

So first post in a long while. To be honest although I have been hobbying I haven't really felt the desire to interact with the community or post photos of my work as I haven't really felt inspired in any real way, plus I've had life things to sort out. But now the life things have been sorted and Inferno has now dropped plus a couple of other bits and pieces I thought it would be worth writing some more bits and pieces. So without further a do lets get on with it!

Army I took to the Warhammer World Heresy Doubles event

The Mechanicum are coming

So for a while I have been working on a smallish mechanicum force, well I've finally got the motivation to finish it off and add to it to bring it to a 3k list. There is the doubles event which is at the end of the January and the Escalation painting event in April and as I wanted a changed from the Space Wolves for a little while I thought I'd get some mech stuff done.

December Update

So I've managed to once again neglect making content for the blog or being active on social media as life (as it has a habit of doing) keeps getting in the way. So I thought I'd do a quick one today about what I have done recently and do some more in depth articles over the Christmas Period.

Space Wolves for the Shadow war

Today we are going to be looking at the army that I'm planning to take to the shadow war event at Warhammer World at the end of October. Also warning massive block of text ahead! So without further ado lets start at the beginning...

Note - this isn't the army I'm taking

What I'm working on next

So I'm back from my holiday (which was awesome) and have been thrown straight back into work, however this has been the perfect time to get some old projects finished, start some new ones and set myself some challenges. So without further a do here is what you'll be seeing from me in the next couple of months.

The Hobby Butterfly Strikes Again!

So as you may have noticed I've been quiet for a couple of weeks and that is unfortunately due to non-hobby related things needing to be done from both a personal and work side of things. I've started a couple of new projects and am keen to get some old ones finished, I just need to find the time and space to do so. Hopefully I'll have something to show later this week (when I have a chance to write it up) but there will be no proper update this week. Below is a photo of my finished 'Aard Boy tester model to whet your appertite until I can get something more concrete together.

Orruks and War Storm

I'm back again, a little bit later than normal but I haven't had time to write during the rest of the week (downside to having both a job and a social life) but I've managed to get a little bit of painting in and a whole bunch of reading.

Orruks, Gates of Azyr and Armies on Parade

Time for this weeks updates. I've been doing some background reading as, painting both for work and personal as well as a new idea that I've had for armies on parade this year.

New Job, New posting schedule and Ironjawz!

So any of you who follow me on twitter will have realised that I have a new job, a job at Warhammer Southampton. Now this means that yay more money for hobby stuff but boo a full time job means less time to hobby. So I'm going to change the blog schedule a little bit. I'm going to try and post every Wednesday and if I get the time do a second, likely to come out over the weekend but this will be less regular. I'm hoping that having this blog will make sure that I keep on hobbying and actually get things done. 

So onto the main meat of the post today, Ironjawz!

I'm Back!

 

So after a short hiatus due to having to finish off my dissertation and do a poster presentation I haven't had the time or really felt like doing even more writing than I had to, so the blog got put on the back burner for a while. But I'm back now and have a number of projects I want to get finished, including some raven guard, my ordo reductor, two different age of sigmar armies and finishing painting what I have for my space wolves. So hopefully there will be more regular posts in the next couple of weeks. Also if any one was an army they want showcased then feel free to message me in the comments, by email (hobbyfromtheaett@gmail.com) or over on twitter. 

So hopefully we'll see some more posts coming out in the next couple of days and weeks.
