Jan 25th: Joan of Arc
I’ve spent most of the month working on my nids for the Warhammer World project I have going on. One of my hobby goals for the year though is taking part in the OTT community painting comp every month.
The January theme was Saints and Sinners and I didn’t really have anything that fit the bill. I was considering buying a Joan of Arc model just for the fun of it and then the universe went out of its way to encourage me.
The Rest is History podcast decided January was the time to release their four part series on her. It is a really interesting little series about someone that, if I’m honest, I knew very little about going in.
I knew that the model(s) I wanted were the mounted and on foot ones from Bad Squiddo. They were, as usual, really good casts with very little flash. They came with spears and two copies of each banner so if you make a mistake, you have a back up.
It is the opening weekend of the World Rally Championship this weekend but it is also my six day week so I’ve been playing catch up on the coverage. It did make for a very fun evening of painting though; a cracking rally and some lovely miniatures. They were lovely to paint and a great break from the army painting of the nids.
