    Quarter 3, Week 6 Update: Traitors, One and All!

    Hello there, traitorous scum! Welcome back to week 6 of the third quarter of Hammer the Backlog, the weekly tabletop wargame and mini painting accountability and productivity blog.

    Welcome back to the fourth week of the third quarter of the first year of Hammer the Backlog, the painting and accountability blog that is keeping track of my foolhardy quest to get all of my existing tabletop wargaming and boardgame miniatures painted without going mad.

    Quarter 3, Week 1 Update: We Fear the Enemy!

    Hello and welcome back to Quarter 3 of Hammer the Backlog, the relentless Warhammer painting, accountability and productivity blog, where all of the targets are SMART, even if I’m dumb as a brick. A nice little throwback to Dark Omen there in the title, for the real deep cut nerds among us. As this is…

    Welcome back to the final instalment of Hammer the Backlog Quarter 2, where this week we learned the real value of rocks and the absolute dread of a corrupted SD card.

    Quarter 2, Week 10 Update: Never Smile at a Crocodile

    And never underestimate the work it takes to paint a Saurus Warrior, even if you are doing a Warhammer mini painting, accountability and productivity blog.
