Hi, I paint a bit of everything, and occasionally when the planets align I actually get to play. Played tabletop stuff in the 80/90’s, had a huge break and came back to the hobby about 8yrs ago (thanks to X-Wing & Bolt Action) I’m still learning & practising my painting #miniaturepainting
Help pls, this metal apothecary is shown with a standard backpack but do any of you know if the second pic is what would have come with the mini? Or would it have had a metal backpack? I’m overthinking for a change.

‘Moon’ is on film4 right now, Sam Rockwell is always great to watch, so double greatness in Moon. Soundtrack by Stourbridge’s finest Clint Mansell (of pwei fame)

This mural has gone up in Kingston, ostensibly for Christmas but AI has ensured it's actually to celebrate the return of our dark lord Cthulhu

Ah the 1970s.
Stagflation, three day weeks, collapsing infrastructure. Civil War in Northern Ireland. In yer face racism and bigotry everywhere. Bin strikes. Strikes in general. Blackouts. Industrial decline. Wage inequality. Dog crap everywhere. And households spent 25% of their income on food.

The zombies I posted yesterday were part of the monthly painting challenge by MLG, have a look at all of the entries here. A great community and awesome store
The app thingy I use to make the showcase videos has changed and it is really really hard to use now so this took *Forever*. Please watch it to make me feel better 😁 AND, more importantly the minis are awesome

Unfortunately, this army's not gonna see much use here. Either one large or two small rifle platoons in Bolt Action with mortar and MMG, officers, a Hetzer, StuG, and Panther. Gauging interest here before eBay gets their hooks in - what *does* this kinda thing go for these days? 🤪

My #Stargrave Captain is finished.
Gris Harcourt is a Rogue & smuggler who used to run weapons for the 'White Sand' rebellion, before they were wiped out during the Long Decimation.
He now takes work where he can and for whoever pays highest.

Taking my son to the cinema tomorrow to see ‘An American werewolf in London’ and I can’t wait. He’s never seen it, and I’ve never seen it in the cinema. I bloody love Halloween at the cinema 🐺

Still one of my favourite shows that I’ve watched in the last 12 months, just stunning. Would love a second series, but looking forward to a rewatch in good time.
Today marks the two-year anniversary of a great modern sci-fi show: Scavengers Reign. 🥰
A new classic that is only officially available in a few countries.
