The Iron Hands are seeing reinforcements in the hulking form of Caanok Var available for pre-order from Games Workshop.
They sent one my way, so I painted him in the successor chapter Red Talons colours.
Recipe here:

This is Twilight Sparkle. She was born with a bump on her head made of soft tissue instead of bone. It's led to a buildup of fluid in her brain and seizures. While there's no cure, it can be managed with lifelong medication and bloodwork. You can help her below ❤️‍🩹

I may have made an error. I’ve bought, by accident, a box of eliminators. I meant to buy eradicators.

Does anyone (uk based) have a sealed box of eradicators they want to swap for a sealed box of eliminators? I’ll cover postage for us both.

The first of my siblings duo of wraith lords is finished! I'll finish the other one later but I should probably do some chores first #nerdlings #aeldari #warhammercommunity #40k #eldar

I’ve asked this before - but UK recommendations please for glue that is like superglue in stickiness but without the fumes. I am really allergic to superglue (even when I wear a mask/windows open) and it makes my breathing really tight. I need a glue that can stick different materials together.

This is Finley. He has a rare genetic mutation that causes patches of different colors in his coat. It is completely harmless, but it does make him completely handsome. 14/10 (IG: jaktlabben.finley)

a lab pup sits and looks up at the camera. his fur is a mottled blend of blond and black, and he’s standing on his leash with one front paw.

a closeup of baby finley resting his little chin on a blanket. one of his ears is curled under at the tip and his eyes look a little sleepy.

finley sits on a rock next to a body of water and squints slightly into the sun with his pink tongue sticking out.
