Grimdark Future - Alien Hives (Tyranids)

 I blasted through the unpainted/bits box recently and knocked out all of (well, nearly) unpainted genestealers and tyranid gribbles to use with Grimdark Future.

As it stands I've got 3 units of 5x Soul Snatchers (Genestealers)

2 units of 5 x Grunts (Termagaunts)

1, yet to be painted brood lord or hive tyrant.

This will give me just over 1000pts which is another nice wee army for smaller, kitchen table games.

I've also got a bunch of spore mines, and objective markers, which will work for Epic too.

Really basic speed painting, but happy just to get them in a playable state.

And if anyone had a sweepstake going...

My first and second miniature purchases of the year...

A box of Sicarian Rust Stalkers for my Ad-Mech/Machine Cult.

The full GF9 set for Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps... :D

I FOMO'd this one, learning that the license was lost, meaning this game will either disappear and become rare as hens teeth, or will end up in a bargain bin!

I'm quite happy, the price for the game plus all expansions was less than a GW big box release, and the game it's self can be played solo or co-op which should be perfect for the perpetual lockdown.

Grimdark Future - Tanks!

 I built and painted these at the start of the month, utilising Predator and Razorback kits, plus a plethora of bits.

As usual, I couldn't go vanilla and had to make some conversions. The modular nature of the Rhino allowed me to create some different loadouts, including magnetising all of the 'out of the box' stuff, and scratch building an Anti-Aircraft unit and Mortar module. 

I've also launched a YouTube channel where I hope to do more builds like this and record them.

Next up - Genestealers! Finally clearing my storage boxes of my unpainted Space Hulk Xenos and Battle for Macragge 40k Starter models.

Grimdark Future - Scouts and Machine Cult

 More progress through the big box of gifted minis...

I'm calling the Space Marine/Battle Brother Scouts done, and the same for the Ad-Mech/Machine Cult troops.

I would have spent a bit more time on them but I've been feeling ill the last couple of days and just wanted them off the table, plus in game I expect them to be squishy, so don't want to pour too much love into them to see them destroyed :D

N.B. I will go back and tidy them up when I feel better as I can see some annoying stuff in the photos now.

Grimdark Future - Ribbits!

 Happy New Year!

I've cracked into some more of the Warhammer 40k Christmas haul to paint up some Ad-Mech to use with Grimdark future, and some additional Space Bros, which are works in progress.

At this rate I'll have the whole lot done by the end of the month!

In other news - my gaming buddies and I have a new podcast discussing all things RPG and Tabletop, which might interest some folk!
