Summer cleaning the Cursed City

The first model on my list is Torgillius the Chamberlain.

Theres a wonderful shop in a nearby village called Mirfield Miniatures. If you don’t live close I would recommend the Facebook page.

Anyway, when I was there once I found this battered Torgillius model. So he will be first to be painted.

As bad as I am at taking pictures of my miniatures I can take landscapes, but I digress.

One day in January 2021 I went to Tescos.  There was snow on the ground and there looked like there was going to be an epic sunset, so I went up the old victorian graveyard on the edge of Saddleworth Moor. So sat, in this gothic place waiting for the sun to set I watched the GW reveal for Cursed City. The models looked fantastic. Alas I didn’t have the money to purchase it, and it was on limited release.

So as I said, I don’t own a copy of the game, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t picked up the models here and there.

I like goals with fixed dates to get things finished. Targets is the word I’m looking for.  I find it really hard just to do things with out that focus. Without structure I tend to flounder, and get aimlessly distracted.

With the spring clean challenge I rekindled a love of painting once more and I don’t want to lose that. So rather than paint the 40k models or Malifaux models I play with, I thought why not paint some random stuff, that way you can put effort into them with out the need to use them. Artworks rather than gaming pieces.

So my Summer Gothic challenge was born. Paint the models I have for Warhammer: Cursed City, the only issue is I don’t own Cursed City.
