The joys of a Warhammer 40K bits box...

 

Sorting out boxes which is my favourite hobby pastime! This was part of a job lot given to me years ago by a friend... he used blue tac to attach weapons so they could be changed when needed. Sacrilege!

The tub is just plastic, most of the rest are metal barring the Space Marine / Ork vehicle bits etc.










Spent a pleasant evening in last night with the hound finishing the first series of HBO's 'Rome'. I'd ordered the second series on Friday and it arrived yesterday meaning I stayed up till 01:30 watching the first 2 episodes... rather tired today.


Trying to get a little painting done but, as always, ADHD hits and I get everything else started and nothing completed. Hoping to get the upcoming Napoleoniques molded and off to Kickstarter backers soon.


Martin Buck has done a stellar job on these including Napoleon himself (on the balcony in the pic).

Well, off to paint a little. More later.

A glorious sight to see. So, many goodies. 😁

The best surprises are finding things you forgot you had...
The miniatures of your Napoleonics are very nice and Napoleon is ace: was he sculpted a little shorter than the other minis or did he finally grow to a normal height in your version?

@Rodor - he is a little shorter (although not by much) to fit in with the comedic aspect of the range. Definitely not to be taken seriously!

I used to enjoy buying joblots (still would if I could), rescuing gems from amongst the dodgy crafting and paintjobs.
