A kitbashed Chaos Spawn / Abomination for use in an Armageddon campaign we're just about to start. #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

"...so I played the game with my wife, Milla Jovovich. From doing that I clearly understood that the most important part of the experience that I had to bring to the screen was my wife, Milla Jovovich."

Some blood-sucking vampires of both space and regular varieties.

Good news for Death Guard players who really want to commit to the bit.

The new thallax with a few of my other admech "heavy infantry"-types, the skitarii praetorians and a UR-025

Quite often I make things that don't fit neatly into official army units, but my admech is primarily just a collection of mechanical minis I like

I've seen a few people posting skeletons today and I'm not sure if there's a reason behind it or if it's pure coincidence, but I'm going to leap wildly onto this bandwagon that may or may not exist. #nerdlings #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity

Are vampires the Primaris Lieutenant of AoS? (Not a complaint, vampires are much cooler.)

Yeah. My main thought was that it'd be faster (I have a whole Boarding Actions terrain set to do), but I'm not sure the time saving would be that significant.

Hobby experiment: Using tape, thinner masking tape and yellow spray paint to make small-scale hazard stripes.

Results: Meh. It sort-of works, but I'm not sure it's that much quicker, easier or better looking than just freehanding it.

It pushed me to get them all done, but it started to feel like a bit of a slog towards the end. If I ever do another campaign like that I'll pick a more elite army!

Painting 2000 points of Orks in four months for a slow-grow campaign was, in hindsight, not the smartest idea I've ever had.

I haven't really kept track, but I think my models-painted tally for 2025 goes something like this:

Orks: 144
Tyranids: 26
Necrons: 33
Blood Angels: 23
AdMech: 2
Terrain: 22
Misc: 2

Total: 252 (ish)

Probably my heavily kitbashed custom Ork Warboss (and his various hangers-on).

I have 30 of the New Boyz, since I prefer the sculpt to the old 'twerking' pose. Definitely a worse kit overall though. I managed to customise them to make each model unique but it involved a lot of Mad Dok work chopping up and swapping arms and heads.

I'd read a 50-book series called 'The Horse Heresy'.

The first half is quite good and then the second half beats itself to death with poorly integrated catchphrases and Prometheus nonsense.

I've been painting some ooky spooky vampire space marines. Because I'm an old man who hates change I have de-primarisified them as much as reasonably possible. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #bloodangels #givememk7helmetsorgivemedeath
