Quick update. Didn't really enjoy Grizzlor much. Too few vibrant colours, which is my jam. Given up on trying to finish everything before Archon delivers on their crowdfunder as it appears they're gonna be early, which is kind of unique.

Still, I think he enden up okay and won't mind fielding him. The crossbow on his back was a pain and got in the way during painting.
Sorry I didn't do a sub-assembly there.

Brilliant stuff Voivod! How many more do you have to paint? How are you finding the game? Does it have good replay value? It’s seems you and Daeothar have enjoyed it so far, it looks to me to be a more fun version of Warhammer:Underworlds (not a bad game but the early version was quite repetitive).

Thanks. I think I have less than 10 mini's to go right now, and I have the complete range.
Archon is going to send me about 20-something more in a little while.
I don't play nearly as often as I wish, as per usual, I think, but the game has plenty of replay value for me.
You need about 4 mini's a side, 5 or six if you go minion heavy, so there's plenty of room for list building.
The only real gripe I have with the game is I don't particulary like building fate-decks. I just feel like it's to complicated for too little gain.
The models are great and I think good value, compared to a lot of stuff on the market these days and they don't pump out expansions in a rediculous rate. It feels doable to keep up.

Characters have enough flavour and different abilities to make adding them to your force open up new strategies and tricks.
The different forces also feel different enough.

You'd think receiving a large box of goodies would put some fire in me, but my painting has been on an absolute zero the last few months.
Archon's crowdfunder was fantastic and I reveived an amazing ammount of goodies.
I also realised harder than ever my collection is reaching a point where I really need to make some decisions. For now Battleground is still firmly one of the games I'll keep working on.
Hordak has been on my desk half-finished for ages and I noticed, thus far, I only really enjoyed painting She-Ra's mounted version.
The model is great. Hordak's mantisaur is a lovely weird creation. It just had so much NMM and unreachable parts.
It took me ages and I'm happy it's finished. Hoping to focus on some simpler projects for a while.

Even if it was a bit of a struggle, the end result is more than worth it.  Lovely classic animated series vibe.
Your collection is outstanding.
