Stunning paint job

 

Well new in 1982 when issue 32 of White Dwarf was released. I particularly like the way they have incorporated the classic Citadel Miniatures logo into the art.

This wasn't specifically attributed in the magazine, but looking at the style I assume it is by Russ Nicholson who sadly died earlier this year. Feel free to correct me if you know better.

I don't think anyone has, this lot should keep me busy for a while.

Well this will definitely be worth a watch, thanks for sharing.

We've all done something stupid just to shut up a colleage. I will definitely have to give this a listen.

I would find that deeply frustrating.

My brain is dredging up a memory of sticking Ork arms on a Khorne Berzerker kit for some extra beefy arms to help with all the murdering. I'm guessing that would be much more difficult these days.

I saw one of my mates had got a boxed set recently, when he told me that he couldn't just swap the arms around I was gobsmaked. The monopose miniatures ruin a big part of what I enjoyed about collecting armies.

They've also had great interviews recently with Gav Thorpe ( https://bedroombattlefields.com/hobby-qa-with-gav-thorpe/ ) and Tuomas Pirinen ( https://bedroombattlefields.com/qa-tuomas-pirinen/ ) definately worth a listen.

He must have used artist acrylic surely? Painting that with citadel paints would have cost a fortune.

 

And boy is this a biggie!

Hopefully still munching guardsmen, they look like hungry boys.

 
 

So I thought it would be cool to share where we all get our podcast fix.

I'm always looking for more stuff for my ears to listen to whilst my hands are busy. So thought I would see what you all enjoyed.

My current favourite is the 'The Bedroom Battlefields Tabletop Miniature Hobby Podcast' , I know not the most catchy title, but it's nice and relaxed and doesn't take itself too seriously. Plus their latest episode has an interview Gav Thorpe, so that is well worth a listen.

Let us know your picks.

 

Congratulations, you have found yourself on the corner of lemmy where we share our fondness for little lead men (and women, and orcs, and elves, and… ...well you get the idea).

So share your stuff and let folks know how great theirs are.

1 Month Update

So here we are, 2 months ago I was happy lurking around on… …somewhere else that we won’t mention, and now I’m moderating this dusty corner of the fediverse and thoroughly enjoying it.

A big THANK YOU to everyone who has posted, commented, upvoted and even downvoted, without your interaction this would just be me screaming in to the void.

It has been great to see people enjoying this community. As I have browsed lemmy I have seen countless niche communities that are have two or three posts from weeks ago or just one person posting with no other interaction, so seeing this community (a niche within a niche) thriving has been beautiful to watch.

Here are some of my favourite posts from the first month

If anyone has any posts they enjoyed why not share them below.

Thanks again to you all (including the lurkers, we all know you’re there). u/fearofthedark
