Anyone want a 40k Leviathan boxed set? I built, and almost painted, one miniature, otherwise complete. Make me a cheeky offer?

Hey,

I'm trying to remember where I've seen sheets of diamond roof tiles, either as sheets of plasticard/styrene, or laser cut paper/card.

Can anyone help?

Hey everyone, just hope you’re all doing well, and my sympathies to those that aren’t. It’s a challenging time of year for those of us who are self-employed, so when it comes to choosing Xmas gifts, please consider buying from small businesses and solo craftspeople. It really makes a difference. 🎄

Funny thing is, I’m not really interested in left versus right. I tend to split the world into dickheads and not dickheads. I have noticed lately though that the further right or left somebody is on the political spectrum, the more likely they will be a dickhead… #thisyearspoliticalpoint
