This is last year’s Red Gobbo model. I pre ordered him, but he only showed up in the middle of January, and it felt a bit weird painting and xmas model so early in the new year. So I saved him for this year!

I have had this miniature since it first came out. A regular opponent of mine had an Ork army, and as soon as I saw his charging across the table top, I knew I wanted to paint it.
So I bought one.
Sadly, like so many projects, he was built, undercoated, and then forgotten about. I actually thought I had lost him. Just the other day, I was tidying up my Games Room, and I stumbled across him once again. He has taken a little damage here and there (he was stashed away in a bag with a bunch of other classic metal minis), and he needed some other bits of cleaning up around the edges. But I finally decided to paint him. Just 20 years or so after he came out.
I have painted this as a favour for a friend. I wouldn’t say he put pressure on me to do it, but any time I posted a picture of a model that wasn’t this, he made “friendly” reminders under that post!
Belting kit though, looks really good on the battlefield.
My lad wanted to add Aun’Shi to his T’au army when Games Workshop put him up for made to order a while ago, and he finally arrived a week or so ago. Naturally, he had to get painted pretty quickly.
It’s been quite a while since I painted anything for my Ultramarines, and playing Space Marine 2 inspired me to get one done!
Another addition to my Old World army, a Dark Elf Assassin, and what a belting addition it is. Such a fantastic model, with so much action and drama!
