The life and thoughts of a Jenn
Book Reviewer, Artist & Hobbyist Miniature Painter
I have felt my hobby inspiration leaning more towards Age of Sigmar as of late – mostly due to reading more fantasy books than 40k ones. Rather than make up my own Stormhost I thought I’d look for an official one. When looking through a list of Stormhosts, I found one called the Stormblood Guard…

I thought I’d share my more recent hobby attempts! It feels like it’s been a while again and, as always, trying to get back into the flow of hobbying. Daemons of Chaos I got a test model done for my Tzaangor unit; these are allies for my Daemons of Chaos army – which is added…

A slight break from book review posts! I’ve been working on this big beastie the past couple of days and finished him off today. Lord Commander Eloth took the day off for the kiddos birthday and we had a good old fashioned painting session while he was at school. I am overall rather chuffed with…

Instead of spending time with Sharpe, I thought I’d fit a bit of painting in today, instead. I’ve been livestreaming a little bit while the kiddo is at school and it’s been helping to motivate me painting through the backlog. Today I picked up the Gryphon again for my Cities of Sigmar army and did…

Cities of Sigmar Just a quick update from last night. I managed to get the layers on one of the remaining Demigrpyh Knights. I’ll do a bit of work on the layers of the remaining Knight today and hopefully get them based and finished off soon so I can photograph them all together as a…

Well, half term week is finally over and as such I feel like I can sit down with a brew and update the blogs again. Hobby stuff has been a bit thin on the ground, mostly because the kiddo has been off school and as such I’ve had to spend a lot more time entertaining…

Finally took the plunge into putting some paint onto my Sisters of the Thorn for my Cities of Sigmar army. I’ve been hesitating on these models for months so putting some base coats and washes on the rider (The deer have been painted for a while now) The only thing I’d like to change on…

I managed to get a ‘test’ base done for my Demigryph Knight/Cities of Sigmar army. After deliberating and twiddling my thumbs over how to do the base since I started the army, I finally took the plunge and gave one a go. I think it turned out rather nicely, if I do say so myself!…
