A magnificent Wight King from Santa! The pictures don't do justice to just how clean the painting is, and the amazing blending along the sword. http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/y384/Stewp111/Mobile%20Uploads/3C8A8956-FCF4-4CB7-BBC2-E3F837F962DF_zpsc45z5cho.jpg http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/...

It's arrived! I'll post a picture as soon as I'm home tonight but safe to say Santa has spoiled me, it looks amazing!

Mine went yesterday! I have sent it tracked delivery so there should be no issues and hopefully arrives in plenty of time for Christmas

My model is done!

Well, it's complete. If I get time I may spend a little more time on it but it's ready to send when needed

My model is looking pretty sweet if I do say so myself! Having lots of fun trying out new stuff and so far so good Is our shipping date to be end of November?

I have the model! Just checking in, construction will begin shortly

There's a lot of very interesting discussion and I must say Seredain you make some good points. I would contend that the vast majority of Scots would call themselves Scottish before British, rightly or wrongly that will always be a factor. Britishness, for Scotland, particularly younger Scots, doesn...

Yes and No representatives who were there said those were simply uncounted votes waiting on the No table. It's possible the vote was rigged I suppose but I don't really want to get too conspiracy theory about everything. You're completely right. Yes would have won a majority if voters over 65 were e...

Pretty strong No vote. However still a strong Yes vote, stronger than was expected when the referendum was agreed to I'm sure. Disappointing personally for me but I think there's a lot to be hopeful about. David Cameron (as much as it pains me to admit it) made a pretty good speech, suggesting movem...

I'm here! Several ideas floating around for my Secret Santa, nothing ordered yet but hopefully within a week things will be put into motion. Looking forward to this

An IMS poll actually showed that no voters were most likely to be motivated by feelings towards UK. Yes voters are moved by dissatisfaction by UK government. Further devolution is something that has been promised in some ways, but with no consensus and no actual guarantee. Were it on the ballot it w...

I think I would agree with this sentiment. When I think of EU "enlargement" I think countries like Turkey, their entry has been discussed since I was in the UK last in 2003, Serbia, and Moldova (?). In reality accepting Scotland into the EU really wouldn't be enlarging it's just another n...

I've not heard that about the EU, do you have a link, googling wasn't turning much up. Scotland wouldn't actually be independent until 2016 so there is a decent amount of time to negotiate and see what the options are there as the EU doesn't seem to have made a statement of anything yet. I read it ...

I read that the EU announced it won't accept any new members for (can't remember the number, but almost definitely less than 10 and probably around 5) years. So Scotland wouldn't be able to join the EU immediately. Plus, if Scotland decided to use the Pound without a currency union, apparently they...

The argument for Scotland remaining automatically in the EU is something along the lines of removing Scot's EU citizenship being ruled illegal. There is no precedent and the argument doesn't sound that convincing to me so I could definitely see Scotland having to apply as a new member nation. And th...

@facade Very diplomatic reply :wink: I do think that both sides do have some pretty convincing arguments and I wouldn't say I'm so strongly in favour of Yes that I wouldn't consider changing. The televised debates are both worth a look through for anyone interested to see a little of the arguments i...

As you may know, Scotland will be holding a referendum on independence in about a week. The Yes campaign recently "shocked" the UK with polls showing a 22 point no lead turn to a 2 point yes lead within a month as undecided voters migrate to yes and the no base weakens. This has left Westm...

Only the elves and sorta the warriors are a complete army, the rest are just odds and ends I enjoy painting. I don't play very much any more, I don't even own a 8th edition elf book! Thanks, I really need to pull my finger out with those PG and finish them off... For the near future however I need t...

Zombies are making good progress! There's still a bit of work to do but they definitely look tabletop ready I think. http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/y384/Stewp111/14268915-4057-4D59-93E1-F066DD14ECCF_zpsrzcuhg8j.jpg http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/y384/Stewp111/C79208EA-5C54-4461-8BE9-061E9E...

Now some zombies! I recieved these in rather poor condition but fortunately unpainted. With a bit of work I think they look presentable, they're only zombies after all. This photo is just basecoats and they've yet to be washed or highlighted but I thought I'd at least show that I've done something! ...

I took part in the first or second of these I think, and as I'm returning to painting I'd love to give it another go, as I had a great experience then! However I haven't been around here for a while so I'd understand if I wasn't yet trusted as a returned member. As for what I'd want, almost anything...

They are indeed quite nice models, very simple but with nice clear shapes. They are very clear 2D casts though, particularly in the chaos warrior's case. They're also pretty tiny compared to modern models. I took this scale shot next to a random spearman which are already smaller than more modern hi...

I'm... back? It's been literally years since an update so I wish I could unleash pictures of a magnificent completed army, sadly I've been away from the forum and painting and gaming in general. BUT I have recently found new enthusiasm for painting and so have a few bits and pieces to show off. Firs...

Interestingly in Australia the average weekly income is around $1350 WTF? That's double what I get paid a week! I started with a double starter set, and I can tell you, I had no beer for a fortnight after I ordered it. Indeed while getting those numbers I found a nice graph showing income distribut...

Indeed in the UK the average weekly income is £463. The IoB is around £60. Less than 1/7 of weekly income. Interestingly in Australia the average weekly income is around $1350 and the island of blood is $165 so despite being far greater in absolute terms it's only 1/8 of weekly income. So yes, Easte...

Krohan-kis reflected on his life choices so far. In retrospect the entire chaos thing was probably a mistake: his skin now closely resembled a rotten tomato and whilst horns sound awesome they quickly became a real issue when trying to sleep comfortably. And that’s before even considering how havin...

Love it! Keep on writing :) Thank you! I intend to. :mrgreen: And now continuing the theme of "entirely unrelated and slightly bizarre", the tale of an empire village. Imperial records indicate that the small village of Grutwend paid no taxes or duties in the years 2518 onwards. When a de...

No love for the poor dragon... :mrgreen: Here we have a skaven clan I toyed with, Clan Furnak. Chieftan Pyrescratch wrinkled his long nose in distaste, "No-no, I said one hundred slaves, then I give flame throwers!" His rival, Skrutgut, sneered and spat into the dirt, "These slaves st...

It's been a long long time and I feel I should start back into this whole forum and war game thing in a gentle way: with some writing. I'm not planning to be in any way consistent, I write about whatever character inspires me at that time and then they may remain forgotten forever. Without further a...

Last year was excellent, so I'm excited to start brainstorming for this year, bring it on! SECRET SANTA - USER FORM Username: Sturen Primary Army/Armies: High Elves please Secondary Army/Armies: I'd rather stick to High Elves. However, a model for any random army would be fine too! Army Theme/s: Not...
