About the Project
Being a part of the problem, I bought in on the new Leagues of Votann when they launched. There's no real intention of using them in GW games, very little intention of using them in other games and most of the idea is just to paint an army I love the look of.

Part The First
February has been a weird month. I’ve been signed off pretty much the entirety of it. I wasn’t in much of a mood to paint minis, I mostly just played video games instead.
Midway through the month I was in the mood to do some hobby but I didn’t want to paint, I wanted to build. Looking in the cupboard, I decided to just go with what I fancied making instead of what project was coming up next.
That’s how I ended up here; 20 Hearthkyn Warriors built and subsequently painted. I own a bunch of the Leagues of Votann models; I bought the army box when it came out and have picked up at least one of all the other units (bar one) since last autumn. I have no interest at all in playing 40k and if I’m honest, I don’t know when I’ll play an army sized game large enough to get all of it on the table. My intention when I bought them was purely as a fun painting project because I loved the models. It feels right that the first batch to get painted were worked on with that exact feeling driving me.
