Oops. 😅 So much for 50 ISH days of not buying hobby stuff. #nerdlings #minipainting

I think this dude constitutes the most different thing I've done recently! 54mm of relatively normal Guardsman is still Different, right?

Does it come much more different than an albino pirate Salamander and his pet croc-cannon?

Nice Nid Andy! Here comes a different kind of Stormlord. One with a fashion sense. Pink is just his color. #Nerdlings #JHBackdrops #WarhammerCommunity

Been in something of a hobby slump this week, largely just been too knackered to do anything with it, but built these two the other night, converted plague marine champion and a model I'm using as a malignant plague caster. #nerdlings

Need to get back to finish these big lads soon #nerdlings #minipainting

Probate on the new house has finally come through after putting the offer in in October 🙄 Only problem is our buyers mortgage expires on the 17th June. Cutting it a bit fine but hoping this will be ours soon. Please keep fingers crossed for us!

Magnetised quote a few more plague marines. 27 in this box, with about another 22 to build / paint / magnetise I think 😵‍💫 #nerdlings

If you see this QTP with a WIP. What are you working on? #nerdlings

Death guard Vs black templars in kill team. Phyrric victory for my death guard, lots of fun and learning. Not actually played them in the new edition, team is kinda mid but very limited by weapon choices imho. #nerdlings #40k

About 41 days since I've bought any hobby stuff at all. Quite proud, but still bits I'd like. Top of the wishlist 1/35 Sherman and Cromwell resin tracks Couple of plague marine heroes Warpspark weapon battery Stormfiend Promising myself I want to hit a savings goal first though #nerdlings

Trying to potty training my tiny human. I still think he's too little as he's only 19 months, wife thinks it's a great idea. Pray for me, our clothes, our furniture, our carpets and our stuff

Too hot to paint Too hot to write Too hot to do anything except maybe vegetate 🥵

Finished these #blacktemplars as part of a commission, they should be off to their new owner tomorrow. #warhammer #paintingwarhammer

Seemed to have gained a few new followers lately. If you're new here hi and thank you! I'm Rhys, I build 1/35 tanks, Warhammer, aspiring writer, teacher #nerdlings #histscalemodels #minipainting

Deathshroud Terminator with Manreaper and Plaguespurt Gauntlet 1/3 #40k #DeathGuard #ChaosSpaceMarines #nurgle

#writingstreak day 2 - page and a bit of A5 written 15 mins or so before bed, definitely feeling a little rusty but also enjoying getting back to it. This isn't a sequel to my first novel I wrote, might be something of nothing but we'll see...

#OTD in 1944, Anzio area, Italy. Men from 7 Cheshire (5 Infantry Division's machine gun battalion) in a captured German communications trench. #WW2 #HISTORY

Came across an old Tau box from years ago that I had started to build/paint before I took a hiatus. Decided to spend an evening on a quick run of another model. We're getting better. #Tau #Warhammer40k #MiniPainting #LittleHooves #40k

Proof that I did actually write stuff!

Actually sat down and wrote two pages of a new story last night. Doesn't sound like much but I'm trying to get back to writing. Treated myself to a new notebook to best capture my ideas too! #writer #author #booksky #needanagent

#hobbystreak 1424 today I did a few touch ups on the Broadside and realized that. While not perfect. I seriously did not want to spend the extra hours to fix them so I am gonna call it here. I need to edge highlight the alternate weapons but thats really a problem for when I game more than a paint 1

Painting with some friends tonight, got a lot more done on this broadside, even if most of it was touching up... The grey bits aren't primer I promise! 😅 Nice change to green! #nerdlings #40k #minipainting

Question, are these the right tracks for a British VC firefly? I have some metal ones but kinda wanting to recreate the pic of Robert Boscawain's firefly (even though I have the wrong variant) 1/35 QuickTracks T-35088 T48 type Track for sherman share.google/TH5BwE8bO7mo... #histscalemodels

Did a lil bit of groundwork for the bren carrier. Can't lie I'm kind of in the absolutely hating what I've created stage of this, but know that it just needs a bit more time and attention and it'll come right 🤞🤞 #histscalemodels #minipainting

#OTD in 1845, Air John Franklin's doomed expedition set sail for the northwest passage. None of the 129 men would ever been seen alive again. Archeological evidence showed that the men resorted to cannibalism in a desperate attempt to stay alive. Might do a thread on this later...

Tesla Stuart coming along for #konflict47

It has now been a whole 31 days. An entire month without buying hobby stuff and remarkably I've been mega productive with what I've got, feeling pretty content... And my savings are up! 🥳 #buildthestash #nerdlings

Really productive paint session tonight, feels like these 5 plague marines are about 90% done now 🥳 Coming round to batch painting, 5 seems to be a pretty optimum number 😁 #nerdlings #40k #minipainting

Does the thing in this guys torso look sufficiently like an eye? #nerdlings #deathguard #minipainting

a future diorama I want to make for a friend... Now I just need an ambulance and figure out how to make a greenhouse in 1/35 Oh and a bit of figure converting too 🤔 #histscalemodels #nerdlings

Currently working on a Normandy diorama. This is the first time I've tentatively placed the various elements, though there will be more. Probably going to put this to one side for now, to concentrate on my #bastillebuild. #histscalemodels

Oooh, didn't think I could enter this one, but then I remembered I have these guys! Good excuse to paint something that isn't green for a change! #nerdlings

Only bloody cracked a tooth didn't I? Bloody no idea how though!

I have some lovely rosemary and co brushes but I almost only exclusively used them for my 1/35 stuff, almost thinking they're too nice for my Warhammer bits. I'm being a snob here aren't I? Been thinking of getting some new brushes so maybe more nice quality ones?

Had a quick half hour when I got home to block some more colours in on these guys, not much, just some hoses, horns and some leather, but progress is progress, right? #nerdlings #minipainting #WIP #40K

Some faces and close ups I've painted / amazing working on. Faces that only a grandfather could love... #nerdlings #40k #minipainting

Got an hour or so of hobby time tonight, got a bit more done on these plague marines, edge highlights, washes etc. slow but steady progress #nerdlings #minipainting #40k

Hi, my name is Rhys and it has been 21 days since I've bought anything hobby related! #buildthestash

Calling the camo scheme done on the jagdtiger, might have gone a bit mad with the dots but am I bothered lol. Decals and tools to do then it's pretty much done.

Hoping for some bench time tonight! 1/35 mojo is back and want to capitalise on it, already got my next 2 projects planned out. A very loose goal I've set myself is to get this over the finish line before we move... #hiatscalemodels #nerdlings #minipainting

Nerve wracking moment, but my magnets work! 🥳 #nerdlings #minipainting

Had this firefly kit the longest on my stash (my favourite tank) got it just after starting scale modelling it looked too complex after building the ancient tamiya panther. Now have the compulsion to build it, got aftermarket parts for it, only problem is it's buried in a box with moving stuff 😞

“Hey Billy, do you see this green light coming from that thing?” The last words of Private Johnson (not in the picture or anywhere in this dimension due to disintegration on a molecular level). #Nerdlings #WarhammerCommunity #JHBackdrops

Starting the long process of magnetising my death guard

I like this message.

The completed builds shelves, hopefully soon to have a bren carrier added!

Still as true today as it ever was

I feel like the 17th century English space program run by Oliver Cromwell's brother-in-law has the potential to become a history meme

Woke up and my current shelf queen is calling to me... Started waaayyy back in 2021(22?) Thinking she deserves to be finished soon #histscalemodels #minipainting #nerdlings
