New Year Blog Happy New Year everybody, just a short blog update to celebrate both the new year and the fact that my blog is now a year old.  WiP of Empire Knights While the blog itself had a really steady stream of posts in the first half of 2025, it did tail off in the second half of the year, this was mainly due to the fact that work got busy.  Still WiP Looking ahead to 2026 I don’t think it will reach the 2025 levels of posts but, it is my intention is to definitely keep posting as I paint. On the painting table currently is a unit of Reiksguard knights and the pictures included are only Work in Progress (WiP). I look forward to talking to you all more throughout the year.
