Forgot to post my first finished Eldar models a few weeks ago, so here they are. Got a second Wraithlord and an old metal Avatar to do next. #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Side-by-side of Cypher from when I first did him when the new version of the model dropped in 2017 compared with the one I finished recently. Makes me realise my painting has actually come a long way. #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Cryptic Cabin October challenge box has arrived. Three awesome P3 paints, two nice brushes and a cool Orc model that I’ve not seen before. Got a solid five weeks to do something fun with them. Looking forward to seeing all the other attempts too!

Not a bad hobby day. My local store anniversary stuff arrived from the other week as well as this year’s free model for Warhammer+. Also managed to order the Remnant Blade book from Alchemists Workshop 🙂 #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Props to GW customer support. Ordered a box of carnifexes and they arrived missing one of the weapon sprues so let them know and they just immediately send out a replacement no questions asked. Rarely needed to go to them over the years, but whenever I have done they’ve been top notch.

SALES THREAD🧵 Here's the first bunch of my stash up for sale. I've had this stuff since I was a kid, so the prices reflect their value to me. If you want multiple items, message me for a deal. UK postage only (sorry, I need to keep it simple!) Anything not sold by Sunday evening goes on eBay!

Had a good week in North Wales with the family. Kids were living their best lives and the weather held up nicely for the whole time.

Do any friends in #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings know of an app that is good for keeping an inventory of paints owned?
Thinking it would be good to have some kind of resource that tracks what I’ve got from different brands as I often forget and it’s a pain having to go check the racks each time.

Literally half an hour into the first game of the premier league season and looks like a player has been racially abused already.
Absolutely disgusting stuff, hope Liverpool staff find and eject the fan and he faces punishment.
