Does anyone want a reasonably priced Adeptus Titanicus box? I opened mine at the weekend, took one look at the sprues and noped out (some of the army painters at GW struggled with it, it's a really hard kit.) No point in leaving it on a shelf. I'll sell it on for £120 posted to the UK.

Also - omg Dimrill! Have you heard the new Origin stuff?

Ta. Nah, it's a mixture of melted acrylic plastic, UHU, and Vallejo water effects. Plackky long strands teased from a flying rod, globs of Water Effects on the end, and then UHU to make the strings between the teeth.

Needed some more wash to finish off the rest of my Kill Team ruins (man there's a lot to paint used a full tub of this on it already) and picked up some skelingtons to have some bones and bits on my Blood Thirster base. 20% off so 'only' £8 for both.

I'm doing really well in painting/building more than I'm buying!

I posted my shame a few pages back I think... since then I've only bought Lord Filthy and his Grubby Gang and the Containers and crates that I've already painted *smug glow*

Yeah, nicely done.

I've done very little lately, just black base edging on my Skitarii, tiny bit more on my Tech -Priest Dominus and redid the wings on my Blood Thrister (look too flat so took them of and gave them a slight 'fold' and reposition).

Ordered more epoxy resin as the stuff I had has gorn orf.

Naw. He's incredibly spindly with loads of fragile mechandites and keys and sitch. Even if I could find all of the bits I'd have next to no chance of getting them back together.

Ta, is it really strong? The Blood Thirster wings are pretty heavy and only join the body at one point. I have drilled it to be pinned this time though.

Yep. I'm putting my Warlord together with it. Get the Clear though. The normal orangey one expands as it dries, the clear dunt.
