Quarter 1 Week 13 Update: Skin of the Teeth!

Hello and welcome back to the final update for quarter one of the second year of Hammer the Backlog, my ongoing project to clear my unpainted backlog of Warhammer fantasy and 40 minis before the plastic in them breaks down and they disappear harmlessly back into the atmosphere.

Quarter 1 Week 8 Update: The Lost Leopard Legion

Well hello there. Welcome back to Hammer the Backlog, the weekly Warhammer mini painting, productivity and accountability blog.

Ciao and welcome back to Hammer the Backlog, the weekly Warhammer mini painting, accountability and productivity blog, which this quarter is focussed on the Dogs of War from Warhammer 5th edition.
