Way back in 2nd edition AoS (I think) I had a Kharadron Overlords army that I was really unhappy with the scheme of. Fast forward to last week I decided to return to them with a different scheme in mind I like much more, just got a full army to strip and repaint #AoS #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

I genuinely wish I liked TTRPGs. I like their digital counterparts but having an in-person group would be cool. I had a D&D campaign years ago but the group was awful and me and my mate quit early on. Also I need the visual element so way more work is required than usual

Getting the urge to go back and finish an army I abandoned long ago as I ballsed up the colour scheme, Kharadron Overlords! I just wanna paint dwarves without having to buy new minis

Spent a good chunk of the day building cultists for Frostgrave and had a little bit of fun with this guy!

Oh yeah Gene is a dick and I won't defend him. I like the band despite him

Lucky you for not having come across them!

I still stand by early KISS is fun and even after their heyday there is some decent to good tracks

You know the type, they write blogs about kvlt metal and take life way too seriously!

I'm so glad I don't believe in the whole 'guilty pleasure' thing since I unashamedly like Lordi and KISS

Never would I have thought that I would have something in common with the royals. The King's brother is a nonce, so is my step-brother, though in my family's case we got justice way faster but then again we are poor and don't have the family's millions to protect us as long as Andy did

Get these! Especially if you didn't get to back the Kickstarter, they are lovely sculpts and a tonne of fun to paint!

Some basing supplies arrived yesterday so finished up my Frostgrave wizard and his apprentice. Gone for Sigilist as it seems a fun route to go #nerdlings #wargaming #Frostgrave #ttrpg #miniaturepainting

Been quite a while since I last watched Playframe, starting their Wind Waker playthrough since I am in a Zelda mood and currently not playing that one

Fallout 4 has its problems sure, but one I find is that your character lives in Boston pre war and is fully voiced, why not have them comment a little more on locations, their history with the place, more confusion about the war? Literally anything that grounds them in that place

A further wip of my Ultramarines idea thing. Not sure on it yet, couple of highlights and base to go but not as happy with it as the basic marine #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

I tend to not paint too many marines, though I do enjoy some of the bigger ones like White Scars and Ultramarines. Also got a soft spot for Crimson Fists

Been trying for years to find a scheme for Ultramarines that I liked. I have a firstborn army I have had a decade and got a tester model nearly done, liking this new scheme I have #warhammercommunity #40k #ultramarines #miniaturepainting #wargaming #nerdlings

I fully believe that whatever entity created Zuckerberg had another crack at it and created Mr Beast. No real person looks, acts or feels (or lack of feels) like those two creations.

Thanks! It was super weird, fell asleep watching the news then like 2-3 in the morning woke up coughing and all dizzy like to see tanks rolling across a European country, thought I had woken up to a war film or something, kept watching for hours after not sure what was real

My first and only time getting it was the day Russia invaded Ukraine. I refuse to get sick again in case things get worse

I was planning on it, but once I put the blue-greys down the purple/lilac started to settle to me. Grown to quite like it

I was looking for a darker purple but happy with how they turned out

I have been testing a colour scheme for my first of 3(?) Frostgrave warbands. Originally I wasn't sure on it but it has grown on me

Knocked up a wizard/witch/druid/warlock kinda guy made of bits from the Frostgrave wizards 1 set and the Dead Animal Bits set. I think he looks cool and looking forward to painting him up #wargaming #frostgrave #minipainting #nerdlings

Yesterday I was actually social! Went to see my friend, swapped Xmas gifts (we both work silly hours) and he bought me this! Super excited to give these a look through. I have wanted to do a Blood Gorgons squad for quite a while so may use these to detail them
