I know everyone likes to show off their fabulous finished models when they have an influx of new followers (hello!), so let's do this differently. Here's four of my favourite #WIP projects for you to enjoy!

It's Scale Model Challenge in Eindhoven next weekend. I'll be there on Saturday & Sunday with a couple of models in the Standard Fantasy class.

If you're reasonably local, it's worth your time. Very well run show and HUGE too. I've been a few times and always enjoy it.

Haha! It's fine. Playing and painting are different hobbies, you're totally safe!

Collecting is another hobby again. I'm nailing that one hard.

Agreed. It's conflating jumping off things with dynamism, which is a shame. My preference remains the old ones for this reason!

As the man himself said, don’t be hasty.

Yes, definitely a very 2020 project!

I do like a reddish Martian base on a model. All my Space Wolves and upcoming Ultramarines have that. But I did do this madness for Armies in Parade a few years ago ...

Ork, ork, ork.

Still thinking on basing schemes. It won't be a decision I make this month though!

I hear that. Young me would have made a real hash of these models, so it's nice to do them properly.

Belatedly starting #Orktober.

I'm so behind, haven't even gotten my Orkmas Tree out the loft yet.

No, Sainsbury's. No. It's just too soon.

Haven't heard that in years. Splendidly daft term.

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

Right choice made.

My experience over 30 years of them has improved in each generation. The utility is greater as a phone than as a loudspeaker.

Although since the Nokia 7110, they've not inspired me or looked cool.

They're so over. Over.

That sounds terribly sensible and a rational approach. It'll never catch on.

It might have started there, but now I attribute it to main character syndrome, where they just don't give two hoots about anyone else. Alas.

Hey you. Switch off loudspeaker on your phone, raise it gently to your ear and GIVE IT A FUCKING REST WITH THE LOUD CONVERSATION IN PUBLIC, YOU PRICK.

Mobile phones are a blessing and a curse. I have no idea why dickheads talk into them like communicators from Star Trek but it needs to stop. Urgh.

The original's one of my favourite games. Enjoy it!

I haven't painted anything in the last week. Have a picture of my cat by way of apology.

This is looking so good, fella!
