Octoberfest 2018
This weekend I attended First Founding’s Octoberfest in Chessington, South West London.

Work has been insanely busy of late, so I have not found the time to get much painting in.
My cityscape scenery has been left in an almost finished state, but before I move on to more urban buildings, I need to finish a project that has already been started.
Omega Guardians
I have finally settled on a Space Marine Chapter after years of flipping between several.

Orks Tournament List
First Founding Gaming club’s first Warhammer 40k tournament of the year is this Saturday (12th May). Regular readers of this blog should be aware that I am in the process of painting a table’s worth of scenery for this tournament, as such there has been no time to prepare a new army or even new units.
This means that once again, I’m sticking to good old Orks.
