A photo of the box for Kill Team: Shadowhunt. The box shows a photo of a squad of Sisters of Battle (warrior women in black power armour) battling Chaos Raptors (mutated evil Space Marines in blue armour with gold trim wearing big jump packs). The tag line says "Faith versus heresy in the shadow of alien terror".

Aw yiss, guess who has even more plastic to paint!

This is a surprisingly weighty box given it's only got two squads in it, I guess it must be the tokens and books as well.

A photo of the box of the Voidscarred Corsair squad for Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. They're basically punk space elf pirates, all wearing elegant flowing blue/green armour and sporting mohawks.

I DON'T HAVE TOO MANY MINIATURES, YOU HAVE TOO MANY MINIATURES. 😤

After playing that game of Kill Team the other week and discovering that the Heavy Gunner with the Wraithcannon is actually quite good in the current edition of Kill Team (I had constructed this squad during the last edition when the Wraithcannon was hot garbage so didn't construct it) I figured I'd get another box of Voidscarred and try swapping the Fate Dealer (sniper) out for the Heavy Gunner and make a couple of regular Warriors that I can swap out for some of the close combat specialists. It turns out Games Workshop appear to have stopped printing them entirely so I quickly snapped up a box from the usual place I get my miniatures from.

A photo of the (fake) Christmas tree at my parents' place. It's pretty big, probably close to 2 metres tall, and covered in lights and decorations. Christmassy without veering completely into "explosion in a Christmas shop".

A photo of my Christmas haul: eleven paperback books (mostly scifi), a Fender "Telepath" wireless system for being able to play guitar through my amp without needing a physical cable, and the Ahriman miniature from Warhammer: The Horus Heresy. The art on the front is a Space Marine in ornate red and gold armour with a kind of Egyptian feel going on.

Happy Chrimbo, fediverse! The theme of this Christmas was "books". Plus unexpectedly a miniature from my daughter!

We also got to watch the local kookaburras hanging out on the neighbour's back deck.

A photo of the Kill Team: Tomb World box. There's nothing for scale but it's QUITE hefty. The artwork on the front has four Space Marines in their standard huge armour inside some sort of indistinct structure that's lit with a sickly green/blue glow, with a couple of robot/scarab looking things scuttling around.

Who has two thumbs and approximately three metric tons of new plastic that he really shouldn't start on until he's done with the Hivestorm terrain? THIS GUY!

A photo of the box of the Ravagers squad for Kill Team. The squad consists of five large snake-like alien miniatures, very much in the vein of the xenomorphs from the Aliens universe. Most of them are rearing up, and they all have multiple arms that end in extremely large claws, and generally look extremely unpleasant in a "going to eat you alive" sort of way.

Yessss, plastics for the plastic god!

Looking forward to painting these, I haven't actually painted any Tyranids before except for a single Genestealer over three and a half years ago. I have no idea what colour scheme I'm going to use for these though, I wasn't super-happy with the one I did on that Genestealer.

A wide-angle photo taken looking down a long table of a bunch of people sitting and talking at a pub. There are empty plates scattered over the table, and a big window on the left looking out into some greenery.

A photo of the box of Lhykhis, a Warhammer 40,000 miniature. She's wearing sleek black armour and is partially crouched in mid-jump with a bunch of what looks like lightning underneath her in a partial globe shape like she's just finished teleporting from somewhere else. She has one hand out behind her, the other holding a big sword, two additional mechanical arms coming out from her back and pointing forwards above her shoulders, and ANOTHER two coming out underneath her real arms, and the whole effect very much brings to mind a spider.

I had a (belated) birthday lunch at our local pub today! Great to see friends, the food was delicious as always, and @[email protected] bought me a present, the new Warp Spider Phoenix Lord miniature for Warhammer 40,000!
