Weekly Waffle #368 – Half the Hearth
Weekly Waffle #368 – Half the Hearth 22nd February 2025 Demi Squad For this week’s Weekly Waffle I have stayed with the Leagues of Votann but moved away from command units. This week I’m bringing you the core of any force, the line troops. In the case of the Leagues these are the Hearthkyn Warriors. And in keeping with these hardy, if somewhat short of stature, warriors I’ve only managed to finish half of the squad. But such is there prowess in combat I’m sure they will serve the Leagues well, at least until next week when I hope to have the rest of the unit finished. I didn’t want…
Weekly Waffle #367 – Champion
Weekly Waffle #367 – Champion 15th February 2025 In this week’s Weekly Waffle I have continued to work on my Leagues of Votann characters. This time going with the Einhyr Champion. I’ve kept the formula the same by starting with the airbrush and then switching to the brush. The big difference, or at least it felt like a big difference when I was painting it, was the overwhelming amount of orange. On the Kahl and the Prospectors the orange armour parts were offset by the dark grey clothing. But this guy is nearly all armour so you don’t get that relief. I do think the base helps to offset things…
Weekly Waffle #366 – The Bald One
Weekly Waffle #366 – The Bald One 8th February 2025 This week’s Weekly Waffle see’s us staying with the Squats but this time we have moved away from Necromunda. I’ve kept the same colour scheme but have had to change the colour placement a little. But I think it still works well. The reason for the change is because I haven’t decided if I want the troops to have helmets or bare heads. And seeing as how the Kahl only comes with a bare head I had to do something that brought the blue into the top of the mini. Which I think this does nicely. It’s not quite the…
Weekly Waffle #365 – The gang is al together
Weekly Waffle #365 – The gang is al together 1st February 2025 For the Weekly Waffle this week I have switched from Infinity back to 40k. Or more accurately in this case Necromunda, with the last of my Iron Head Squat Prospectors squad. I’ve really enjoyed painting these guys and will be looking to expand the gang in the not too distant future. There are some really nice Forgeworld, or at least what used to be Forgeworld, as I’m not sure it even exists any more. Anyway there are a few different characters that would fit in nicely with these guys. I may even look at another box to expand…
Weekly Waffle #364 – Looking Invincible
Weekly Waffle #364 – Looking Invincible 25th January 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I have jumped back on the Infinity band wagon. I have lost a bit of my mojo in this space because I’m still dealing with the lost minis I was telling you about before Christmas. Royal Mail have admitted to me they have delivered them to the wrong address but I’m now caught between a rock and hard place with the shop because Royal Mail are telling them they have delivered them. That means I’m currently out of pocket and have no minis. Well no minis isn’t quite right but the irony is that minis that…
Weekly Waffle #363 – Little Prospect
Weekly Waffle #363 – Little Prospect 18th January 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle I have decided to stay in the vertically challenged world of the Squats. Or at least I have in terms of content I can share with you. To keep the mojo flowing I have also done some work on my next batch of Infinity minis, all three of them. But that has been more about cleaning them up and getting them primed. The jobs that always seem to take way longer than I anticipate. So working away on these bits whilst working on the rest of the squats is my way of trying to plan ahead.…
Weekly Waffle #362 – Vertically Challenged
Weekly Waffle #362 – Vertically Challenged 11th January 2025 For this week’s weekly waffle we are back to what I would consider to be normal. Or at least as normal as I ever get. I’ve had a nice relaxing break and then back to work and it’s straight back to the carnage. Lots on with lots more in store. But I’m setting my store out nice and early by using my lunch time to get a bit of extra hobby time in. But to be able to do this I have had to make a couple of small changes. My desk can quite often be quite unorganised so I’ve got…
Weekly Waffle #361 – Retrospective
Weekly Waffle #361 – Retrospective 4th January 2025 For this week’s Weekly Waffle I’m starting by having a bit of a look back on last year. Then I’ll lay out what I have planned for the rest of the year. I’m going to start by summing up last year as a hobby success. Now I will clarify that a little bit by saying that I’m not defining that success on quantity or quality. But rather on consistency. I managed to bring you a newly painted mini for every update. That doesn’t quite mean every week because I had a few trips where I deliberately didn’t do a post on the…
Weekly Waffle #360 – The art of stealth
Weekly Waffle #360 – The art of stealth 21st December 2024 This week has seen the end of the evaluation phase of the project at work so I’m hoping to get a little bit of time back so that I can do a little bit more hobby. So this week’s weekly waffle has managed to keep the run going of having a new mini fully painted to show you, and yes it is an Infinity miniatures. I do tend to through myself into something and then run with it for a while until jumping over to something else. I’m hoping to stick with a combination of infinity and ork’s for…
Weekly Waffle #359 – The Last Invincible
Weekly Waffle #359 – The Last Invincible 14th December 2024 This week’s Weekly Waffle is once again a little light on the hobby front because I’ve been really busy with work. The work front is due to calm down a little bit next week. But then I’m expecting to be tasked with Christmas related jobs so I may still have limited hobby time. But I will be working to bring you something new. For this week’s hobby I’ve really just been trying to finish of the last of my Infinity test pieces in the form of an Invincible. Although it think I called them Immortals last week. But regardless of…
