More stuff I really do need and a trip to the other moor

 After the game of HotT a few weeks ago I felt that I might need some more wolf riders (I don’t but) … so did the usual thing of scanning through eBay and Etsy to see what was available. Highland miniatures do a nice line in Hobgoblin wolf riders …

So, I thought get 6 for a unit picture above … however, I managed to bugger up the order (seller was a top chap) and 6 became 12 (2 units). Really nice prints and I like the look - the other unit has a couple of bow armed riders - although all have quivers none have a visible bow (apart from those actually shooting), so an thinking of adding them.

Also beer for a nice walk on Exmoor - a lovely day, a bit of cloud and rain.

But turned into a lovely afternoon in the Doone Valley. 

I did think that I should do some local games, the Doone valley reminded me of the Monmouth Rebellion… and I’ve just read about the 1549 Western Rising …

Da Boyz - first Orks painted

I have managed to complete the first of the GW/Mantic Ork/Marauder mashups.

Overall pretty happy with the start of the kill team - although I think the boots are overly detailed, with lots plates and some pouches. I’m hoping the basing will hide some of the fudging there. 

I have gone for a uniform appearance for these Orks - which just makes sense to me. 6 more to go and some dog things and a couple of goblin types. Might have a go at another Drakon rider next. 

Always too many figures and not enough time.

Some finished things and a trip to moor

I have managed to complete the bases on the miniatures I have been painted over the last few months. 

The fantasy figures - and the first use of the flowers. 

The 40k minis - my first set off Mantic GW kitbashes and the commander of the custodes …

A weekend on the moor - Watern Tor and sunrise towards Postbridge from Holming Beam. 

The end of the walk was around Hucken Tor. Vixen Tor in the bottom right. 

I do like the moss over the rocks and trees at Hucken - puts me in mind of Fangorn forest.
