Mostly posting about printing and painting sci-fi & fantasy miniatures. Mainly Warhammer 40k, but easily distracted.
Also, the occasional post on dodgy old motorcycles & Scottish Football banter.

Trump will never win a war on drugs. It's hard enough to win a war even when you're not on drugs.

If the royal family is such a boon for the nation's coffers, imagine how great it would be for the economy if everybody else got given a few palaces and didn't have to work or pay normal tax.

I may have taken the weathering too far, but I was referencing a World War II winter camo tutorial by Night Shift. 😅

Scott McTominay’s goal against Denmark, which helped Scotland qualify for the World Cup, has now been immortalised and is on show in the National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh. It’s a cracking image by Ross MacDonald!

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

Has anyone used the new Army Painter Speedpaint markers? Wondering how fine they write. Would you, for example, be able to use them to add runes to Space Wolves armour? Or is it just a way to flood hard to reach parts of a model?

As a communal consolation prize, I’ve put together a 50-track MMB (Minds/Martyn/Bush) playlist featuring everyone's song choices, in partial homage to Nicky Campbell’s great BBC (Beatles/Bowie/Costello) night of programming on late night Radio 1 many, many moons ago.

I recently came across some old Wolf Guard Terminators I'd painted up for a Space Wolves army countless aeons ago (see the paint I was using back then), since when they've been stripped and repainted a number of times. I gave these a quick lick of paint and I'm calling them done. Time to move on.
