2/3rds of the Nobz finished!
I’ve long ago given up on collecting to a specific list on this army - it’s just grabbing whatever models that I want into pure waaaagh at this point

Luckily I can unhinge my jaw like a snake and eat the entire thing in one gulp

Amazing how all these years later they’re still finding this stuff in the weirdest places

Well done! A magnificent achievement and it remains a superb hobby resource - just the last few weeks I’ve checked up your guides for inspiration on at least three different schemes

Fog of war and logistics? Just the ticket! Thanks Gav

I rather like the idea of going completely double blind - although that of course removes the point of said teeny tiny carriers

Great minds! I’ve been reading shattered sword and gazing wistfully at teeny tiny carriers

Starting to paint up my steel legion; starting with these tiny legend 3d prints which are really quite excellent so far

I wish the internet was more about people 3D printing whistling mortar bombs for their very happy dogs to chase than arseholes secretly filming unsuspecting people for grifting and humiliation but I guess that ship has sailed

The Ork Nobz kit remains very enjoyable and characterful - currently resisting with buying some extra bodies for a few more options given the mount of options you get on the sprue

I’ve enjoyed painting my 10mm for brigade level but aesthetically I think if you’re going for division as your standard then the 6mm stuff will work best

One of my most satisfying moments in aerial travel was getting a plane home from Scotland, everyone rushed off the plane onto the bus, I was last off, last onto the bus… then first off the bus at the terminal 😎😎

The great thing about wargaming history is it gives you a different perspectives - and makes you ask different questions… so im expanding out my reading beyond the division/corps level I covered for my PhD
