After a fair bit of lurking, list-reading, and quietly nodding along at other people’s excellent paint jobs, I figured it was time to start a hobby log of my own here on Bolter & Chainsword.

This blog is mainly intended as a running record of my Warhammer journey: building, learning, painting, and occasionally questioning my life choices while staring at half-assembled sprues late at night. I’m relatively new to the hobby, coming at it as an adult with limited hobby time but a strong appreciation for Space Wolves, plastic heresy, and incremental progress.

The plan is to use this space to post photos, painting updates, lessons learned (often the hard way), and general hobby milestones. I’m very much learning as I go, so constructive feedback, advice, and suggestions are always welcome—whether it’s about techniques, colour choices, or how to avoid repainting the same model three times.

This will be a slow-burn project rather than a rapid army dump, but the goal is steady improvement and enjoying the process. Feel free to follow along, comment, critique, or simply use this as motivation to clear your own backlog.

When i first started i bought Space wolves and then got hooked and wanted to also be able to try painting something with less armor plates so i bought into Orks. 
Here is a couple photos of where I am at now when starting this blog. 

With that said—onward to the plastic.
