A unit a week 2 – More ghouls!

Yes, more ghouls for the ghoulkin!

The rules of my weekly challenge state I can split large units into several weeks, as long as each entry meets the minimum unit size. Wanting to pace myself, in order to allow any other available time be spent on building and sculpting, I'm doing another 10 ghouls for week 2.

A unit a week? Ghouls!

In an attempt to find new motivation, I've signed myself up for a couple of year-long projects. One is the Gathering of Might at Ammo Bunker, which is loosely paint an army in a year.

Secret Santa – Skaven

A little bit of festive filler! Every year, those so inclined to spend a little time building and painting a model for a member of our club get together and secretly draw a name. So far we've managed to keep this up for 3 years running and have seen some lovely and crazy miniatures produced!

Warhammer: Battle for Tamworth

To celebrate the release of Warhammer's 8th edition, I decided to set up a small close-ended campaign at my club. Based roughly on the Risk map and reinforcements system, theÂ campaignÂ is a simple territorial map with ranked armies and ownership. Making the map a little special and personal, I've based it on our local town, Tamworth:
