When the Ork codex drops and I get my grubby mitts on one I won’t tell people, but there will be signs…

So, End of Oak Street. That was actually a pretty good film? Like, it had slight Cabin in the Woods energy, just sort of unexpected and quirky, one minute funny the next gut wrenching, and ultimately a fun film. And also neither a sequel nor a supers movie, something standalone so hooray for that!

I was on holiday when it dropped. I have now been able to pick up my box. Result: very happy Andy

Second batch of Freebooter Beast Snagga Boyz painted, which means the mob is done! Waaagh!

Kap’n Grimmbad’s Halfskullz, all done and dusted complete with the ship’s Wurrboy, Gitfrazzle

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 13/06/2026

Still WIP. Basing paint just went on, and each model needs individual treatment for rust, stripes, glowy gubbinz and weathering, then the entire mob needs its basing finished. BUT the second 10 Beast Booterz of my mob o’ 20 are nearing the finish line!

Some space-piratical, beast snagtastic, still quite WIP Orks

Labour of love these ladz, but my Freebootin’ Killa Kanz are finished at last!

Holiday to Wicken Fen was very photogenic (and an amazing rest in nature)

Around the point we saw an owl wing past

This was the day we saw an actual formation of cranes fly overhead!

My view straight up right now… spring’s definitely doing its best!

Lovely blue sky (appropriately for this site!)

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 21/03/2026

This game is winding toward its finale and I think it’s teetering our way… Waaagh? Waaagh!

Freebootin’ Beast Snaggas show up from reserve and psychically frag some missile launcher teams (not pictured because fragged)

3rd Helbrute done and he’s my fave of the bunch

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

Blood Bowl tonight! Second outing for Grail Madrid, vs Skaven this time. I predict a fast moving and violent game ahead!

The full squad ready to rumble (chivalrously)

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 12/02/2026

Grail Madrid are finished! Bit of a labour of love and I’m not painting that scheme again in a hurry, but I’m pretty chuffed with these - zoom in for a proper look, I am bad at mini photography 😂

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 05/02/2026

Bretonian Blood Bowl team still WIP, but I’ve been able to make some progress today. I’m particularly chuffed with Squire Hugo’s belter of a black eye.

Something of a shiner on the lad but he’s still swinging!

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 27/01/2026

Test model finished for my new Bretonian Blood Bowl team ‘Grail Madrid’. Meet Guinevere.

Another Sunday morning, which means coffee, lovely winter sunrise and writing!

Now with 200% more arms (and a whole lot of dakka)

Helbrute complete with some hefty firepower

Back on building Word Bearers in time for spooky season (I reckon they count, what with the daemons and such)

We only went and won favourite opponents of the weekend! 😊

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 06/09/2025

Game two was a messy scrap against Knights and the Lion plus chums… brütal stuff!

Chaaarge! (They didn’t live long enough to)

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 06/09/2025

It continues to kick off as we approach the end of game 1

Game one of this weekend’s event - unleash the cultists!

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 05/09/2025

At risk of reposting recent stuff, this lot sure are short and mighty

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 04/09/2025

I am enchanted with the tiny sentinels. They are my new favourite thing. They’re also painted!

Smöl Ogryns are smöl (and finished!)

More recent additions to my Vordekh Jaegers - I’m actually really enjoying painting the tiny infantry now I’ve got into my stride

090

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 20/08/2025

Another squadron of Vordekh Jaegers finished. Thoroughly enjoying myself!

A squadron of rather traitorous Leman Russ Vanquishers

Today it is going off in Grimtoof Valley!

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 15/08/2025

Legions Imperialis painting progress so far… cracking on!

Leman Russ strike squadron, Lasrifle Tercio and their Dracosan transport

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 09/08/2025

Boom! Finished my 1st squadron of my traitorous 9th Vordekh Jaegers (‘The Dire Wolves’), turncoat Imperil Army Auxilia. This is a hella quick scheme too. I can’t wait to see Baneblades in these colours

A strike squadron of Leman Russ ready to do some traitorous stuff

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 07/08/2025

One project ends (for now) and another begins: Cultist Firebrand means my Word Bearers Chaos Cult sub-army is complete. Meanwhile, got the basic scheme figured for my traitor Imperial Army for Legions (some details still to paint, this was a quick and dirty colour test).

And the tiny wee Leman Russ from the other side

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 29/07/2025

So many to choose from! This was a tough ask…

Sunday afternoon painting sesh, good times

When you absolutely positively have to stop the witch elf scoring (using a heap of bacon-smeared bodies)

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 20/07/2025

That’s the last 10 cultists painted for my Word Bearers, which brings me closer to getting my event army ready - just 10 Beastmen and a Firebrand left to paint!

0240

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 14/07/2025

That’s the Treemen finished. Jollyvale Jawbreakers reporting for duty (or at least for the half time snacks… and the pre-match snacks… and the post-match snacks…)

0231

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 13/07/2025

Finished this page-turner this weekend and I can heartily recommend. Was it a bit pleased with itself in places? Sure. Was it a bit predictable here and there? A bit. Was it enormously fun regardless, and also very empathetic, cinematic and deserving of a sequel? 100%. Fun, funny, horrid & charming.

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

Just the treemen left to paint now, then that’ll be the Jollyvale Jawbreakers ready for some gridiron action

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 11/07/2025

Colours look a bit weird thanks to my camera, but: two things I have never painted before today are a red squirrel and a bone China teapot!

Andy Clark @andyclarkauthor.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

Also just finished this absolute banger by @aptshadow.bsky.social and if you haven’t read it, do yourself the biggest favour of the week and pick up a copy. Wry, deeply human, intelligent without once weighing itself down, and a smashing story that builds very satisfyingly indeed!
