Lady Nkiruka - Star Child and Herald of the Emperor's Coming

Thanks to the motivation of Chico's Sci-Fi based weekly challenge, I have actually painted a model!

Introducing Lady Nkiruka - My Sensei for the 'Quickening" event at BOYL:

Underhivers usurp ratskins

Well, I was going to paint some ratskins for BOYL and Asslessman's Confrontation event. But.....

I was up in the loft after struggling to decide which ratskins to use when I saw these:

Small Steps to Sensei-dom

Just a quick update on my progress with Lady Nkiruka and her band. Tonight saw some filing, pinning and basing.

Tomorrow will see them undercoated. 

(The observant will notice a missing character. He has a non-slotter base to be filed off and as surplus to my BOYL needs, he can wait.)

Sensei, Ratskins and an old find

Well, my order from Hasslefree miniatures arrived (including a free mini, as I ordered just before they started their 20% off for May [How great is that company!!!]) So I am getting ready to paint my Sensei and her band during the next month or so.

The Sensei and Her Pack

In the centre is Lady Nkiruka, her companions are a cantankerous old Squat, an Ex-Imperial Guard Officer and the Mangrel Pug Brothers.

Going Sci-Fi with a Sensei

This is very premature, but when Asslessman on the Oldhammer forum suggested an immortal game using Sensei at BOYL2014, I couldn't resist rolling a Sensei band.

Here is what I rolled: 

Finally some progress on my Nurgle Warband! (Only 3 months behind schedule!)

Well I have finally got my warband to the point where it should have been for the first games in February.

As you can see I have completed the 4 Pestigor that my champion Started with as followers. It is a shame that 2 of these are already dead in the game!

Dwarf! - or spent too long looking at minis online!

Well I spent some time looking at Hasslefree miniatures website, particularly the fantasy dwarves. 

Needless to say, I now have future plans for a dwarf army (very long term plans). 

Well, after this I had a class doing a test and couldn't resist doing a doodle, so here is my 1hr and a half sketch of a dwarf.  

He's not great, but for the time taken, I'm quite pleased with him.
