Blog News: Hobby update and clear out of Books

Hi Folks,
in the lead up to the weekend I've had a bit of a clear out ready for some serious hobbying and have come across a few books to part with.
This weekend is planned to start on the first of my on-going forgeworld projects and hopefully something cool for you guys to look at. and for me to get my teeth in to.

Back to the books, at present I have sorted through my loft and have a number to sell, I'd rather them as collections but I have:

  • Fantasy Minatures - a painted showcase of GW models and GD winners
  • Liber Chaotica: Nurgle
  • Liber Chaotica: Khorne
  • Liber Chaotica: Slaanesh
  • Liber Chaotica: Tzeench
  • The Horus Heresy - Visions of Heresy: Vol. 1
  • The Horus Heresy - Visions of Heresy: Vol. 2
  • The Horus Heresy - Visions of Heresy: Vol. 3
  • The Horus Heresy - Visions of Heresy: Vol. 4
Pics are here for an idea of the condition of the books, but basically they are mint condition:




If anyone is interested please feel free to message me, I would prefer to deal in the UK but if you are overseas dont hesitate to message as im sure a deal could be done.

Thanks guys and look forward to giving you some proper hobby content soon.

Blog News - Hobby Mishaps and Progress Advice

So folks after a massive break from the hobby (for which I will forever feel guilty) I am starting to get back on the hobby horse, and have decided to finally clear out some of my unused forgeworld stuff (including some super heavies) on ebay to make way for some more massive FW projects to come my way to make me enjoy it a bit more.

I recently had a bit of a hobby mishap where an entire platoons worth of guard which were in the process of being stripped got ruined, somehow they all melted despite me using the normal stuff I use. Admittedly they were older plastics so that could have been the cause. that was about a month ago and kind of knocked me wanting to get back going but I think I'm there now.

I am now looking to restart these guard and potentially revisit my existing models but there is still a question ongoing in my mind. On the shoulders of the models above (I dont know if you can see it) there are brass etch eagles and inquisition =I=s (and variations there of) on the other, in addition to the helmet and chest eagles. I am trying to decide if I should do one of the following three things with them, should I:

  • start picking them out in the grey/white used on my inquisitor terminator is worth it
  • leave them green and subdued (and potentially lost)
  • remove them and have the pads just painted plain green as with the rest of the armour
Any thoughts on this progress would be appreciated, hopefully there will be some proper hobby progress soon!
