Finished a glow-up and some rebasing of older orc models. I don't paint orc skin like this anymore, but I wanted to keep these models, so they will be a different tribe in my Midgard army. #oldhammer #midgard #spreadthelard

Here's an Akuma AKU-2XC, a 90-ton BattleMech from the BattleTech: House Kurita Command Lance Force Pack, painted in the colors of the 1st Sword of Light, Draconis Combine. If you would like to know more, take a look at my Instagram. www.instagram.com/ginoxy1140/ #BattleTech #MiniaturePainting
I've added a couple of new tutorials to OSHIROblog; both using buildings from the Peninsular range. Hopefully they'll prove useful for your own builds. They’ll no doubt appear in battle reports soon enough 😊 www.oshiromodels.co.uk/blog/categor... #oshiromodels #wargaming #nerdlings #sp2

Me, to my wife: "I refuse to watch this awful half-time...Holy shit, there's Muppets?"
An incredibly useful comparison if (like me) you find yourself wondering how Dark Ages plastics compare.
Missed this earlier? A new blog explores Dark Age plastic miniatures for Scots and Irish warriors, comparing Gripping Beast, Wargames Atlantic, and Victrix sets. Discover compatibility, customisation tips, and hybrid creations. https://tny.app/6r0s4nfm #wargaming #wargaming
New #Battletech Alphastrike #ScouringSands campaign game #battlereport: tabletopstories.net/language/en/... As always, available in German and English. Hope you enjoy the article!
This image on the Epic 40k box was my first introduction to miniature gaming, Warhammer and Blanche's art. A classic.

We've just launched the Beyond Boreas Kickstarter for a range of 28mm Mythology miniatures! These were part of our Ironclad acquisition and a share of the funds raised will be going back to John for his retirement. Take a look here and please share this about: www.kickstarter.com/projects/pen...

Wow.
Midgard Moot this weekend. A great event hosted by @mogsymakes.bsky.social. Hosted my “Eagle of the Ninth” game with 1 victory a piece across the day. All finished off with a curry and several drinks in the evening. The Moot is becoming one of my favourite events of the year!
We're back for our 3rd Napoleonic crowdfunder campaign and it's our biggest one yet! Over 100 codes of Russians for the full 1805-1815 period, as well as French, Prussians and Saxons too! Head over to our Forum and add your support! www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/to...
Chronicles of Midgard the campaign supplement for Midgard Heroic Battles is out on pdf! #spreadthelard
In between prepping for Midgard Moot and other jobs, I’m grabbing some quick shots of the Wargames Atlantic 10mm skeletons that I finished last week; very appropriate background from Jon Hodgson Backdrops (Ruins & Tunnels A3 book). #wargaming #miniatures #spreadthelard #nerdlings #jhbackdrops
I originally painted this model not long after it came out in 1997. Recently rescued it from my parents' house, repaired it and tarted it up slightly (wash, slight highlight). Also based it for Midgard. Great model that still holds up! #oldhammer #midgard #spreadthelard
Not sure if Traveller is for you? We have a Starter Pack that is completely free, gives you all core mechanics, and comes with two adventures ready to dive straight into! Nothing to lose, and will be a nice bit of Easter gaming! www.mongoosepublishing.com/products/sta... #ttrpg #TravellerRPG
15mm sci-fi. 'Blue' platoon finished. (There's another 30 in the varnishing queue). More papercraft terrain. 'Antares' drop pods are by Dave Graffam. He does some really good stuff if you want terrain that you can't be arsed to paint.
The Chronicles of Midgard pre order has gone live! Full details and links for orders are here: mogsymakes.net/midgard/ Awesome cover art and layout by @handiworkgames.bsky.social #miniatures #wargaming #nerdlings #spreadthelard #midgardheroicbattles #jhbackdrops
Some hairy arsed Barbarians. Figures are Victrix and Footsore in front of a Handiworks Backdrop. Went for Decals for the shields this time. Not sure I like it. Overall I definitely prefer painting my more uniform Romans.
For those who’ve not seen it, news from Too Fat Lardies about the issues affecting the TFL website and delaying the pre orders for Chronicles of Midgard. #spreadthelard
