Hello chaps, last post of 2014 – I got the Tripod finished! There is a tiny bit of detail to finish on the base, but nothing to terrible. I’ve gone for my usual heavily weathered look, with plenty of rust and oil involved. I’ve painted the side hatch closed so I’ll be able to pop it open and add the crewman when I get around to painting him…

40k, Battle Report, Praetorian Imperial Guard

Well, I had (probably) my final game of the year last night – one last match-up between the Dauntless 215th of Praetoria and the dreaded Stormbringers… I have had quite a few games against this particular hoard of Daemons, and the tally is very much in their favour as my blokes have struggled with flying monstrous creatures, buffed invulnerable saves, summoning spam, and all manner of daemonic trickery.

Hail Brothers and Sisters! Wow, I can’t believe that it has been a month since I last posted… My hobby has slowed right down for many and various reasons, but I have finally got around to a bit of painting, so I thought it a good idea to find the time to do a post. I also had my first Apocalypse a few weeks back and my Praetorian Tripod took to the field for the first time, albeit still a WIP. It basically went like this:
