JD Vance is the type of bloke who probably rides a bike on the pavement... Not quite sure why this idea popped in my head but thought I'd share it

I wish GW would release some of the old monopose plastics from the 2nd edition era... I have a few ideas for colour schemes etc but no disposable minis to try them on...

So... #nerdlings ... I need advice. I have had to email a company, that I love, regarding a purchase and got a response that doesn't put right the product I bought. The reason why it can't be put right is out of their hands but I still end up losing out... Any advice what I should do?

Well... Since I live outside of the EU thanks to a stupid referendum @thearmypainter.bsky.social can't send me a replacement paint (2 of the same speedpaint instead of the brown)... It's not their fault but now I need to buy another Masterclass Vol 1 in order to get one colour... FFS #nerdlings

So... Think it might well be time to get my brushes out and apply pigment to plastic... Oathmark humans will be a good place to start... Not overly complicated but fine minis... Research provided by "The Guru"™ @sonicsledgehammer.bsky.social youtu.be/qJEXWE3OeBA?...

Need to get back into painting but needed a plan... I already have a few Oathmark Human bits so have decided to add these and get my brush control back and the Rumbleslam minis are to push myself on... More paints because why not #nerdlings

Dawnbreaker Cohort Astartes - converted model. Following yesterdays post on changing the hand position on the spear, here's the completed model. My client's brief was to convert the model from the flight stand pose to one on the 32mm base. Very pleased with how this turned out 🙂

Random thought but for the past couple of years it's been a fixture of my life...I hope that the celebrities who read the Cbeebies bedtime story do it for free...

Nearly two weeks ago my lovely ball of bitey fur (pictured following my son to the shop) was killed by a speeding van after being spooked by fireworks set off at tea time... I miss him, his personality and even his way of biting my toes to get me up... Jeff was a fab cat
