Hi all So, finally getting round to consistently painting again (or trying to) after c.15 years out of the hobby. I’ve been lingering again for the past few years and dabbling, which includes foolishly amassing rather large collections of various of the old imperial guard armies. I now have 100+ of each Vostroyans, Steel Legion and Kasrkin. I love all three armies and think they’re all so characterful and brilliant in their own way. Whilst I love some of the new models, nothing quite has the character of these guys, for me. I had a small Vostroyan army back in the day and I held onto the models. I’ve tried to recreate a similar paint job as I did back then, albeit with no idea what my recipes were and with completely different paints. The goal with these is quick and dirty - I know myself, if I don’t get a decent number of these guys done in a short period and to a consistent standard I’ll get frustrated/bored and stop. So just looking for tabletop standard with these guys for now to get my mojo back and then might treat myself to a painting project or too. Would also be nice to have a playable army, in case the world ever gets back to normal and I ever find time/someone to play with! Anyway, that’s the intro. I’ll get some photos uploaded (once I figure how to upload), and also try and figure out the best and easiest way to get some good shots. Thanks for reading! Lorr.

Last bullgryn is done, I don't make a story for him, so just the bonehead. I have a great plan for him but failed due to lacklustre of my painting skills. So I make some bloody mess around. And tried new approach for power weapon with blood. It should looks like field burns blood from maul. Technically squad is done. But I wanna more ogryns and bullgryns. It's like infantry, you just can't have enough. So I'll add more, and each gonna be somehow unique folk.

Now that Tanksgiving is over.... US Customs decided that I could have my Cyclops Demolition Vehicle. Yes. That's the old 25mm based Iron Hand Straken for size reference. Maybe next year.

Not seen this relayed here yet. Source is apparently Mordian Glory. Obviously, rumours so take with (copious) salt.
