Hmm. Didn’t quite realise I had as many of these as I did. Putting them into storage for the moment but there some useful kits amongst these that I will return to. #40k #aos #WarhammerCommunity

Knight Errant Abrecan piloted by Precentor Cynewise of house #ærthegn is finished. This is the last of the knights for my household force. I will try to get a family shot at some stage. #questorisknights #30k #40k #warhammercommunity

Managed to acquire this old #40k supplement to help round out my 5th and 6th edition collection. Always wanted this book of missions and might look at adjusting some of these for Heresy. #WarhammerCommunity

That’s the #killteam Hivestorm box fully painted. Really got the taste for scenery painting now. Got some other plans in the works. #40k #WarhammerCommunity

Been a rough week health wise but have managed to get the #genoeightnine base colours finished on the recon squad. Was hoping to get them further than this but it isn’t a race and sometimes you need to rest. #40k #astramilitarum #nerdlings

Darren @penddraig131.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

#1ksons completed. This rounds out the #boardingactions force. I may add a couple of units in the future to bring it up to 1000pts with some options. #40k #WarhammerCommunity

The #newportopen was excellent, especially the #40K Narrative. A special thank you to @nickbayton.bsky.social for bringing it alive and keeping hope for the cavalry charges success. #astramilitarum are definitely in a tough place but always fun. #WarhammerCommunity #warhammerevents

Darren @penddraig131.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

What a great 2nd day and weekend at the #newportopen. Won the first game this morning and lost the second leaving me on 4-1 but completing 4 agendas overall. Also won a special prize for ‘bringing cavalry to a gun/tank fight’. More thoughts later. #warhammerevents #warhammercommunity

Darren @penddraig131.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

First day done at the #newportopen narrative event. 3 great games against some great guys but 3 losses. Had lots of fun but Guard without armoured support are in a tough place right now. Melee is so powerful and shooting is weak. #warhammerevents #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

Darren @penddraig131.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

Arrived at the #newportopen for the #Narrative40k event. Picked up some swag and had a quick look around. First impressions are really good. Looking forward to the weekend. If anyone has a Sons of Horus badge or patch to swap, DM me. #WarhammerCommunity #warhammerevents

Finished building a recon squad for my #genoeightnine. Love these sculpts and really fit with my light infantry theme. Hoping to get these mostly done before an event at the end of the month. #40k #astramilitarum #imperialmilitia #nerdling

Got the new MkIV infantry so of course I dig out some of my reserve #Forgeworld upgrade bits to make them fit with the rest of my #sonsofhorus. Let’s rock it like it’s 2016! #HorusHeresy #30k #nerdlings

Some more art from the #sabbatworlds crusade book. Today it’s the forces of Chaos with the Blood Pact and Sons of Sek. Much more scary when Chaos forces are disciplined and effective. #40k #gauntsghosts #chaoscult #warhammercommunity

Trim all finished on the #ærthegn armour panels. Just needs the decals and final small details adding and then glue them onto the chassis. #30k #questorisknights #40k #nerdlings

More art from the #sabbatworlds crusade book. Love the different Guard uniforms and shows the diversity that can exist beyond the usual Cadian and Krieg looks. Shows how we could use so many model ranges out there. #40k #gauntsghosts #astramilitarum #WarhammerCommunity

Artwork showing the development of the Tanith First in the #sabbatcrusade book. Interesting to see the subtle changes as they get new intakes. Always love to see units in camo cloaks. #40k #gauntsghosts #warhammercommunity

Got myself a treat from #blacklibrary. The re-released Sabbat Worlds Crusade book. Really has the feel of the old Forge World Imperial Armour books and has loads of lore and great art. #40k #gauntsghosts #Warhammercommunity #nerdlings

Last block details on and washed ready for varnish and pinwash before final details. Hoping to get these done over the next week so I can start something new. #genoeightnine #40k #astramilitarum #nerdlings

Venator Sicaran is now starting to look like a vehicle. Few awkward build places but the sub-assemblies go together well. Good to have a bit of a break from the guard. #horusheresy #30k #sonsofhorus #nerdlings

On a bit of a vehicle kick currently. From recent games of #horusheresy it’s been clear that I need some more anti-tank. To help keep with my army theme, I picked up a Sicaran venator. Progress is being made. #30k #sonsofhorus #warmongers

Been a while since I did any terrain but have completed the first of my #killteam volkus ruins and begun the next one. Took a while to decide how to do the floor as felt the base spray colour was too blended with the rest. #30k #40k #terrain #nerdlings
