I’m super pleased to have finished Lady Olynder for my Nighthaunt army, it’s a great miniature but was quite fiddly to paint with all of the delicate and thin areas to be mindful of when holding it.
The two heralds/handmaidens were also quite tricky to attach to the main body of the miniature as they have very small contact points which are not easily held together.
Overall it’s definitely not my best work but I did enjoy painting it and it will be a great addition to my Nighthaunt army, the Grand Procession of Nagash.

Huguenot infantry, War of Spanish Succession
Ebor Miniatures
August 2025
Here we flit back to the early 18th century and the War of Spanish Succession, with these Huguenot infantry from that period. I realise I've had to take quite a bit of creative license with these uniforms, as historical sources for them are rather few and far between, given that the Huguenots would often be incorporated into - and therefore wear the same uniforms as - their Protestant allies. I must admit I'm rather pleased with the way they've turned out; I have a tendency, when working on made-up colour schemes, to make them too colourful and therefore anachronistic for their chosen time period, but I think I'm getting there with these. Figures are once again from the masters at Ebor Miniatures in York (who else?).
Last model of the 2025, a M2 Bradley in 1/72 scale by Revell.
Let me preface this with one thing;
Fuck track link assembly. Fuck that shit so hard.
Beyond that little annoyance, which ended up making the model slightly wobbly, it was a breeze to deal with otherwise. Beyond me managing to get glue into one of the rear door hinges, but seeing as there isn't any interior anyway, who cares.
I nearly lost a teeny tiny part that was meant to go on the turret, only for the part to reappear moments later when I went to grab a sprue. So I would like to imagine it wanted to go home again.
Painting was snap too, followed the steps from an old Pete the Wargamer video (before he went all in on just converting space marines, yawn) for the base colors and some weathering tips from Sonic Sledgehammer that I've used before for previous vehicles.
Although I realised, after I had varnished the model and was on the verge of falling asleep, that I forgot the wash stage.
Oh well, might not even have been necessary at this scale anyway, so no big loss.
I wanted to give it a muddy road base, to eliminate the slight wobble, and frankly it would've just looked more suitable on one. But I don't have any grout, nor did I want to buy a 3kg bag for just a tiny project.
The downside with finishing this one is that I want to paint more tanks. To the point I've been side-eyeing the old Flames of War starter box that I can get for really cheap, just for an excuse to paint Sherman's. (There is no way I'm painting panzers, yuck.)
But at the same time I also want to paint cold war/modern tanks. While I do have an Strv 122 in 1/72 as well, I also dread trying to paint Swedish splinter camo, with or without an airbrush. Not to mention it's a Revell kit so it will also have that incredibly frustrating track link assembly. And I don't have room for 1/35 vehicle kits for that part.
Annoyingly the Team Yankee boxes I want go for 40-50 bucks.
Phooey.

I wanted to briefly share some pictures of the tiniest little guy I've ever painted! My wife got me a 1:72 scale Y-Wing this last Christmas, which is a very exciting model that I expect to be chipping away at for the rest of the year, and this teeny dude is the pilot!
I based his helmet on one I found in my big book of Star Wars costumes (also a very excellent wifely gift!) which it turns out actually belongs to Wedge Antilles, but I hope you can forgive me a stolen lid. It's so very very small.
Btw did you know that Yoda originally had a first name?
