I'll show you mine if you show me yours. Go on WIP it out 😉

So after the UK games Expo I have been Mech mad. I'm excited for the upcoming Gundam Assemble game. Loving Battletech Alpha Strike and even picked up a box of Ember Obsidian boxes.

Here's a WIP Jade Falcon from the Alpha Strike and Scouring Sands Battletech box sets.

What are you currently excited to be working on?

We had a busy day here at BIG, our Riftbound Nexus Nights moved to Mondays and together with the Magic the Gathering commander games made our card game corner quite lively. On the tabletop side, there's been a few BloodBowl matches and a game of Frostgrave, and in our quieter rooms we had two exciting D&D games take place. Now we are getting ready for tomorrow's hobby day, so if you got some miniatures that need a fresh paintjob or assembly, do come around and join us!
