Took my Tyranids into the Warhammer Stoke store for Armies on Parade this morning. First year I’ve actually taken something for it after saying I will every year for a decade 😂 #WarhammerCommunity #PaintingWarhammer #Nerdlings

Cryptic Cabin October challenge box has arrived. Three awesome P3 paints, two nice brushes and a cool Orc model that I’ve not seen before. Got a solid five weeks to do something fun with them. Looking forward to seeing all the other attempts too!

Not a bad hobby day. My local store anniversary stuff arrived from the other week as well as this year’s free model for Warhammer+. Also managed to order the Remnant Blade book from Alchemists Workshop 🙂 #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Yeah, I’d never pay the scalped price for a book, would have just gone the kindle route but so glad to grab the hard back.

Absolute scum of the Earth, every hobby I have is plagued by them.

So glad I’ve seen you share this

Really wanted the book and was gutted when they were all gone and on eBay for double

Got one ordered with Alchemist now 🙂

Must be a fossil then 🤷🏾‍♂️ sorry, I don’t make the rules 😂

Me and the little one watched this last night and loved it. She’s 7 and watching her come to terms with the model’s age was hilarious - she asked if it was a fossil 🤦🏽‍♂️😂

Love it when past self comes through for you

Beats the usual being mad at past self for poor decisions and setting current self up to fail

Yeah I had one many many moons ago now where I got a box of three Necron destroyers that arrived with only green plastic rods for two of them so instead of sending more green rods they just sent another three destroyers 😂 so for the price of three, I ended up with five and the body for the D lord.

Props to GW customer support. Ordered a box of carnifexes and they arrived missing one of the weapon sprues so let them know and they just immediately send out a replacement no questions asked. Rarely needed to go to them over the years, but whenever I have done they’ve been top notch.

SALES THREAD🧵 Here's the first bunch of my stash up for sale. I've had this stuff since I was a kid, so the prices reflect their value to me. If you want multiple items, message me for a deal. UK postage only (sorry, I need to keep it simple!) Anything not sold by Sunday evening goes on eBay!

At the point you pick it’s then available to order for you, so shouldn’t show yet. I’ve had Warhammer+ since it started and it’s how it’s worked every year for me and everyone else I’ve spoken to at least. Hope you get it cleared up anyway.

It’s subscribe on or after August 25 to be eligible for this years model not the model is available from August 25. Nobody has the new model yet, they only announced it around the 25th. They usually start going live in September and staggered across subscribers since all at once is harder to fulfil.

Can’t wait for this year’s free model for Warhammer+ subs, such an awesome Spirit Seer model.

Had a good week in North Wales with the family. Kids were living their best lives and the weather held up nicely for the whole time.
