Today's #miniaturemonday is a bit of a throwback - I painted these about a year ago. As an Iron Hands player, I always wanted an all-dreadnought army. Legions Imperialis finally offered me my dream, and I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed painting up these tiny fellas.

Monster Hunter Wilds is the most approachable, if slightly mindless MonHun. I love it, but I think the series has reached a point where if it gets any more forgiving, it will lose something core to MH. Check out my review www.thegamer.com/monster-hunt...

I can't post what's currently on my workbench for #miniaturemonday, but I didn't share this Exodite Swooping Hawk I painted. Tried for a marble effect on the armour, and definitely need to bring the wings down a bit, but pretty happy as a proof of concept. Gloss varnish for the armour perhaps?
