Also converted a trip of old push fit Stormcasts I got free with some magazine and have had knocking around for ages. Snipped off the heads and put on some spare knights heads, thought they'd work as constructs/golems in Frostgrave, etc

Orcs and goblins getting closer to completion, just put a strong tone wash on them. Once that's dry, put some highlights on and finish the bases (prob at the weekend).

Hannah and I just played our first co-op game of Shadowdeep on a small sewing table. Our group managed to find the clues and get out of the infested village, although it was a close run thing.
A bit slow because we're learning the rules, but bet enjoyable, looking forward to our next game 🙂
