Splattering whitewash and winter weathering all over a perfectly well painted tank terrifies me every single time.....

Last few bits and pieces of my Polish Airborne have been revamped. Platoon commander, medium mortar team with spotter and medium machine gun team. Aside from one miniature, all the crews have been kitbashed 🙂

Classic Necromunda Ratskins. Reworked and rebased on modern Necromunda bases 🙂

Another Bolt Action army getting a bit of a revamp. This time its my Polish Airborne 🙂

@greatescapegames.bsky.social very kindly sent me their new plastic Dead Man's Hand gallows sprue to have a look at.

Absolutely brilliant kit to build and paint, packed full of old west character 😀

Some 1990s inspired 40k Plague Marine kitbashing/conversions from my last video.

These were awesome to build and paint 😀

The Chaos Space Marine army so far 😀

Rummaging through my junk cupboard this afternoon yielded some really rather interesting finds......

Some classic plastic monopose Plague Marines from 1996 added to the retro 40k project.

These were bought on eBay with a random miniature included that I converted to be armed with a flamer. Now the Aspiring Champion I painted last week has a squad to lead 🙂

When you go rummaging round various bits boxes like Indiana Jones looking for old 40k stuff, and find three old Necromunda gangs from 1996 instead 😃

I've worked on the Ratskins on and off for a few years but this is the first time all the miniatures have been together in a good few years.

Latest recruit to my retro 40k second edition project. Chief Librarian Tigerius picked up from eBay.

Super happy to be able to get to paint this after 30 years 😃

Some more additions to the retro 40k project this week. Mmmm meaty banner.

I also picked up some of the plastic monopose Plague Marines from 1996 on eBay that I'm really rather looking forward to painting 😃

Let the galaxy burn! I bought my first Abaddon the Despoiler miniature not long after it's release in 1996. Ebay provided my second and it was an absolute joy to paint as it was 29 years ago 😀

Scenery that I've wanted on my tabletop for many years 😀

Of all the older 40k miniatures I've been painting recently, this is the one I've been dreading. A Space Marine apothecary......with white armour.

I've never been great at painting white so I'm glad this all finished 😀

Another retro eBay purchase painted up and given a new lease of life.

Classic Space Marine Techmarine added to the 40k second edition project 😀
August 21, 2025 at 9:12 PM
My 40k second edition Space Marine army now have a leader. I initially owned and painted my original copy back in 2000 and was super happy to pick one up in very good condition from eBay recently 😃
August 19, 2025 at 8:05 PM
1995 me would be very jealous of 2025 me with what was delivered today.

Back when we were skint students playing second edition 40k, we only had two copies of Dark Millennium between eight of us.

After 30 years, I have my own copy. Mission accomplished 🙂

"So my bolt pistol and chainsword were red, which was the style at the time...."

Space Marine scout squad originally released in 1997 joins the 40k second edition project 😃

More rummaging through bits boxes yielded a kitbashed Chaplain from many years ago. New paint scheme and a better base and he's added to the 40k second edition project 😃
August 10, 2025 at 9:19 PM
Oh the nostalgia. My old Rhino has a new lease of life. It's missing pieces and looks like it was built in the dark but I'm glad I restored it 🙂

This is part of a project to build a Space Marine army for games of 40k second edition. Ahh the memories.
August 9, 2025 at 4:02 PM
Unit of Putrid Blightkings completed. Really enjoyable miniatures to paint 😃
