It’s the XLBS Show………..Happy Sunday Fellow CoGs! The Black Templars New Box set almost sucked my in, but I stood fast for now. (who am I kidding, I’ll break and buy them at some point) (they go so well with my Imperial Fists) (and I like the black and white scheme) @johnlyons you almost had me buying a resin 3D printer the other day while re-watching an XLBS. But I my FDM printer can still do most of what I need….needed some new parts for my puppet buddy that hangs out with me in my Studio/Hobby Room. (yes I have… Read more »
Happy Sunday!
Well it would have been happier if templar007 hadn’t stopped me collecting a brace of firsts! 😉
I was going to continue my sabbatical from posting in XLBS, (so everyone else could gather some firsts). But I just so happened to be working in my digital studio, (on some storyboards) and looked up at the old ‘Beasts of War’ clock on the wall that shows me what time it is in Ireland and thought “Oh I can catch the XLBS as it’s released in the wild, let’s do that today”. The rest is history…..
If we send @brennon stuff will he stop trying to do accents?. Is that how it works?
@fcostin In regards to cats and painting table.You will just have to except this is how it will always be
Even after 6 years nothing changes

I will never stop
Happy Sunday all. Johns Tank is looking cracking and great Pictures. There’s no solution to the kitten v the world I’m afraid. Since having Jessicat I’ve discovered the need for a water pot with a wider base than top because she’s going to go for it, as a 6mm painter lolly pop sticks must be accompanied at all times by more lolly pop sticks to act as a distraction. The box idea will work, for about 5 mins but mainly it’s best to realise your personal space is no longer your own and accept it…washing the dishes? There’s a cat.… Read more »
Forgot to mention…for fans of Scifi / animation / short movies I recommend Dust Studios on YouTube. If you guys enjoyed the short films from Love Death and Robots or Oats Studio on Netflix you should go take a look. They tend to be sci-fi shorts and I’ve watched some great little efforts.
Gerry gave you Gondorians? You should go see the doctor for some penecillin!
Fab show.
I’m with Gerry on the varnish front – always used a Ronseal-type polyurethane gloss as my ‘first final coat’ and then either a satin or matt acrylic varnish to take the shine back to whatever level I want.
Some very good print and paint hobbying from John, our very own nerdy Jason Statham. Warms my heart to see someone in the depths of discovering what’s available to the home 3D printer enthusiast these days. It’s like watching a kid let loose in Santa’s workshop, ah, bless his olive drab socks.
Jason Statham eh? You just made my day haha! Was very conscious of how the lack of hair looked!
When DIP by Army Painter was first released I use to do demos at shows with the stuff. When someone would ask how tough is it as a varnish I’d pick up a dipped metal model and bounce it off the floor. I’d then tell the person to pick it and try and find any paint chips on it. At one event Warlord told me they’d sold a bucket load of DIP and Paul gave me a load of under coated Celts and Romans to use in demos lol.
Great show but why bloody Saga, lol
They were just using it as an example
lol
I’m repainting my death guard tanks atm, I’m using death guard green base paint and using plague bearer flesh as a wash. the give the death guard green a bit of depth
And now we have the Asylum visiting time?
Happy Sunday.. I fell like shit… will catch up later…
Are you going to Fitzpatrick Gerry !?!??
Ooh they may have nice things for a astra.m/guard army!
Thanks so much for featuring my Ork fuel station, and for the wonderful feedback! I can’t wait to share my next project from this series – Orks on a fishing trip!
When John sayed Prince charming mounted my mind cut to him an Snow White getting it on !? Ha
Ooh the Simon Chapter?
Does that mean he’s a primaris primaris marine them Gerry?
It’s the one with the nobly rock? not the smooth one.
Happy Sunday.
I switched from gloss polyurethane brush on varnish (Vallejo) to acrylic as I found that the thicker poly varnish seemed to be taking some of the paint off when I applied it. Not sure if it was too thick and needed thinning first but once I got paranoid I switched.
Two wizard’s enter only one wizard leaves?
Have you got a cave troll Ben or is that on the list.
Yes what Gerry said Free a box an talk to the cat now an again or it many surprise attack thinking you have forgotten about it!?
Great project winner’s.
A fab show guy’s.
