Time for another of Games Workshop’s newer releases, and this time it’s the turn of the Hobgoblins, or as they have now been rebranded “Hobgrots”. For a while I mistakenly believed they were called “Hobgobs” and then, when I was texting a mate about them, noticed that my phone was autocorrecting them to Hobnobs – and that’s what they’ve been called round my house ever since. Although since painting them I’ve started referring to them as “fiddly little bastards” instead…
Much like the Kruelboy Gutrippas I decided to paint these in a slightly different style to that I’ve used for orcs and goblins in the past and as a result the learning curve proved quite steep. Still, now that they’re actually done I’m happy with them, I’ll aim to tackle a few more soon.
