A short introduction
Alright, let's start with my first Warhammer Blog. Although I've been playing Warhammer for 10 years now.
I still have a Bretonnian and an Orcs & Goblins army. In the last few years I also had a Wood Elf and a Beastmen army.
So why turn to Ogre kingdoms now? Don't like playing Bretonnia in the 8th edition especially because of the steadfast. And for O&G, well they're my fun army with all the random stuff. Didn't give them a Circus theme for nothing
. And I really like the Ogre models, especially the Maneaters, Leadbelchers, Thundertusk and the pets: sabretusks. No not our other pets, the gnoblars. I've been painting so many goblins that I don't want to start painting their relatives yet ;-)
To the Ogres: the theme
The theme of my Ogre Kingdoms, not the most original, but still fun: Pirates. Because I had some nice ideas and we have the best model for it of course.
Painting
At the end of july I'm playing in a friend(ly) tournament. I try to go there fully painted (well, my army). For that I had to speedpaint as nothing was painted (bought the army 2nd hand mostly undercoated). I'll post a few picturse now, taken with my phone. Need to retake them in a 'lone setting' with a black or white background. But I just wanted to show you already.

."We're not playing anymore because where getting older, we're getting older because we don't play anymore." And that's why I still play (from Warhammer, to RPG's and board games)
