Lately, picking up anything hobby related has felt a bit more like a chore than an enjoyment – part of why the art has been coming thick and fast compared to hobby related stuff. I walk past my Blood Guard army several times a day and each time I feel a mixture of guilt, for…
I\’ve been a bit lax here the past few days/weeks – I think people can understand why; life has taken a hectic turn. Keeping up with everything hobby related and blogging has been a bit more difficult. Juggling personal stuff and home-life had always been a task in itself and adding in a four-year-old into…
These challenges are so much daily updates, but more an as and when I get round to them! Honestly, anything to keep the hobby going and working on different things is all good to me. I’ve had this Ironclad Dreadnought on the go for a while now and figured doing some work on it wouldn’t…

I was waiting to hear some feedback on this from some closer to home sources, but I\’ve been somewhat let down and heard nothing back. This is the first draft of my history for the Blood Guard home-brew chapter and it would be great to hear some thoughts on it. I know of a couple of mistakes in…
