8th Company of the 87th Remenants. Lead by Captain Knizia. Though much reduced due to long term deployment, it remains effective. The company specalises in digging in, being impossible to shift off an objective. They serve as the Regiments Anvil. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #oldhammer

“How can anyone live like this? Surrounded by garbage? They’re animals, Spratt—animals!” Sergeant Fowler had always been a man who valued order. Private Spratt, meanwhile, tries not to let on that he has already found a few things he could put to good use. #Nerdlings #JHBackdrops #WarhammerCommunity

According to Imperial Armour Siege of Vraks part 1, an example krieg infantry company has around 740 individuals. If you were to make an entire regiment in miniature form, how many companies would be enough to give an adequate sense of scale? (ignoring the cost of the minis required) #nerdlings

This reminds me strongly of an old Ork vd Catachan Diorama with a crashed speeder in white dwarf. Top work

Mini of the month - Mayday Entry 9 by @owolf.bsky.social Run like hell, Johann! It’s the Turkeyman! #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth #JHBackdrops (turkeyman by @badsquiddogames.bsky.social backdrop by @handiworkgames.bsky.social)

Mini of the month - Mayday Entry 13 by @popwasabi.bsky.social "Eat this!" #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

Reinforcements have arrived! A Heavy Bolter and Mortar Squad join the Vostroyans 87th Along with another Command Squad and a fulling fleshed out 3rd Squad. With probably the best Lieutenant on the line (Power Fist guy). Only 4th Squad and the HQ to go. #nerdlings #oldhammer #warhammercommunity

Every morning and evening my garden is visited by foxes. 5 in total. Geniunely one of the best parts of the day.

My paint finally arrived!!! Current work in progress of soon to be finished Vostroyans. #nerdlings #oldhammer #warhammercommunity

Some 2nd Edition Imperial Guard Stormtrooper heavy weapons teams fresh off the printer. @unitedpackage.bsky.social

Some old school Imperial Guards and Rapier Gun platforms. #OldHammer #wh40k #WarhammerCommunity

The Cthonol Nineguards so called because of the 9 regiments founded, all were recalled to their volcanic homeworld. These veteran hazardous tunnel fighters are now seconded to other conflicts across the imperium, lending expertise to other regiments and war-fronts. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity

Finally have the rogue trader inspired infantry off my painting desk after a month too, with Yellow Company, Red Platoon complete alongside their command elements, ready for the rest of the Militia Recon company to be added. Starting with their transports. #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

The Catachan 87th 'Mermaids' are complete. The two classic tank crew I got as part of the #PrideOnParade project. Feel free to join the project with @prideonparade.bsky.social and donate to mermaidsuk.org.uk if you can. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

This is geniune historical restoration here. Top work @delaneyking.bsky.social

These are some of my earliest 40k models from the late 80s. Repainted with love. #OldHammer #WarhammerCommunity #FindFolkFriday #Nerdlings

The Gate Keepers will not be missed #nerdlings #warhammercommunity

Scale creep, its always been a issue. Look at how wee that beefy Catachan is, the Vostroyan's arm is almost touching the top of his head! So cute 😅 #nerdlings #oldhammer #warhammercommunity

The Centaur for the Tanith all done. Really happy with how it came out, and learned a lot for when I do the other vehicles. It’s been a while since I painted such a messy vehicles, and it’s always a lot of fun. #Nerdlings

Finished my Tyranid prime for hive fleet orchid with lash whip & bone sword! Who needs the new model… not me! Easy lash whip from a venomthrope #warhammer #tyranids #warhammer40k #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer

Post something bald. #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings #Wh40k

Finally done the #Goblin Wolfriders! Not gonna be painting for a few days, as I'm hopefully playing #Necromunda with the kids and writing lists for the Jamjamjam event in Nottingham on Saturday. #40k 2nd Ed gaming! Will the #Guard help against the forces of evil? #paintingminis #geeks #Nerdlings

A little showcase of some of the Steel Legion I've been working on this year so far. The backdrop also really suits the colour scheme too.

Slightly cooler weather means I’ve been able to fill in all the extra details. They need washing and highlights, then a finally round of weathering/chipping. Hopefully be done tomorrow. #Nerdlings

Hive fleet orchid tyranid prime (or as some people call it hive fleet spearmint 😂) #nerdlings #warhammer #warhammer40k #tyranids #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer

Halfway through my Catachans with some minis from @prideonparade.bsky.social who I recommend you check out. In person the pink bandanas look very good, but for some reason they kinda blend with the fleshtones on camera 🤔 I hope at least they let people know #warhammerisforeveryone #nerdlings

Having a lot of fun with this Jon Hodgson photo backdrop book haha getting the hang of how to use it more and more. #Warhammer #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k #astramilitarum

hey remember a few weeks ago when i said the griffin mortar was my favourite 40k vehicle and i intended to prove it? i was not kidding

When it is simply too hot, you sometimes have to disregard uniform regulations and roll up your sleeves—and always keep your canteens filled, you maggots! #Nerdlings #JHBackdrops #WarhammerCommunity

Drop someone bald Yes thats me 😅

Stripped a old hive tyrant and took apart & cleaned as much as I could, full revamp on him, new arms ready for squishing some guard after painting him up! #nerdlings #warhammer40k #tyranids #warhammer

I think AI users are becoming a thing on Bluesky. Anyone else seen this? #nerdlings

After a conversation with @owolf.bsky.social ages ago I built a fully-enclosed Tauros Venator ATV for my Valhallan army just to see if I could. I added rear tracks and a heavy flamer turret to better suit the overall look, and it got painted over the weekend. #Nerdlings #warhammercommunity

Breaking out the final unpainted platoon whilst I wait for paint to arrive. A few lots of spares and repairs but was quite cheap overall. These guys have slowly been put together over the last 6 months. Quite likely the last all metal platoon I will ever paint in my lifetime 😦 #nerdlings

(Old) Yarrick. I like a lot of my Steel Legion, but I think he shows off the stark metals the best. Just highlighted over the black undercoat, without any wash. Makes dramatic metals I think. Also, much prefer this version, the new ones arm is too limp.

Other than @bellerophon383.bsky.social hiding the secret of time travel from all of us, this is a cool list. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity

So keen. Tomorrow we cracked out the Sisters for a 1500pt old school tournament tomorrow. 40k 2nd ed at it's finest. Photo dump to come through the day. #warhammer #nerdlings #paintingwarhammer #oldhammer

Test Trooper Tom all painted up. Really happy with him, though going to take a lot of effort to get 50-60 more guys to this level. #Nerdlings

Listen up all you aspiring Guard Commanders! "The Emperor Protects!" And in some cases, the Emperor's light is bountiful. #nerdlings

Run out of Vostroyans to paint until my darn brown gets delivered. I am vexed... seriously vexed leading to mild irritation. #nerdlings

On a roll with painting today. Finished three more agents so here’s Inquisitor Ana Nordheim and her retinue so far. Still need to finish a couple of gun servitors and servo skulls to complete the squad. #Nerdlings #Warhammer #MiniaturePainting

I have it on vaguely good authority (my own) that it is also the birthday of @owolf.bsky.social today! Happy Birthday to one of the best #Nerdlings in the place, and an all-round good man 🤗

Colonel Kessler of the Mordian 38th is the most senior surviving officer left trapped in Vardane City, alongside a few half platoons of the 38th and 41st Regiments. Surrounded and outnumbered, the Mordians have determined to go down fighting, creases pressed and boots polished to a mirror shine.

So, umm, I've made a game. I've attempted to get the requirements down as far as I could but still have a fun little 2 player wargame. You'll need a pencil and a willing victim/second player. Would anyone like a copy to try it? #Nerdlings

RESIST

I've just written a brief summary on my blog of the recent Mordheim event I was involved with at The Clubhouse in Newcastle. **Spoilers - it was great!** www.northwingminiatures.com/post/whisper...

At long last, I’ve finished up the Centaur! It’s a fun kit, but I probably won’t do another for a long while. I paint tanks to take a break from painting infantry, damn it! #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #steellegion

When you run out of that one brown paint you like and the delivery is delayed 😐 So instead of a new project you just keep painting every mini up to the brown paint stage. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

Post your Warhammer, wrong answers only.
