What a beautiful smile 😁 I don't have as many toothsome minis as I would have thought but here are a couple of sets of gnashers for ya.

A classic Hero Quest Gargoyle showing off his award winning smile.

A classic metal Tyranid Termagant with a lovely set of chompers.

A classic Hero Quest Skeleton, like all skeletons he is always smiling :)

Does it even really have a body? I’m not sure I could handle its life anyway.

The Knight from the game Hollow Knight - a genderless being made from the Void, very cute though!

If you see this, post your marine themed art. #nerdlings #oldhammer #dadhammer

Good luck! I painted up one of your excellent miniatures for the occasion!

A model of Count Binface standing on a sandy base crushing a blue can underfoot, you can just see the letters REF on the can.

Purple art postin! 💜 Not many purple minis but here are the few I have… #Nerdlings #Oldhammer #Dadhammer #minipainting #HeroQuest

A classic Hero Quest Chaos Sorcerer painted to look like Skeletor with purple robes and a blue under suit.

A classic metal Tyranid Termagant with red skin and purple armour, holding a weird gun with green fluid sacks and tubes.

An Age of Sigmar Steelhelm Standard Bearer holding a huge purple and yellow banner with a black and white cat like creature drawn on.

I’m happy to present my take on the saviour of Clacton, a true British hero… Count Binface! This excellent miniature is from Troublemaker Games and £3 from each purchase goes to the NHS. Still a few days to go until the Clacton by election too. #VoteBinface #CountBinface #ReformOut #Nerdlings

A miniature of Count Binface, man wearing a bin on his head with silver armour and a flowing silver cape. He is standing on the beach crushing a blue can under his foot, you can see “REF” printed on the can. Front Side View.

I have decided to do my own Inquisitorial Agents for my radical Inquisitor’s retinue (the Kill Team were far too boring for me). This is Khrek Rrok, a Kroot Carnivore who now counts as a standard Agent. Not much kitbashing, just a shorter rifle and 25mm base. Happy with the result though. #nerdlings

Kroot Carnivore with a shortened rifle (to count as a pistol and melee weapon) on a 25mm base. Her shoulder armour has a red triangle with a golden R in it. The symbol of my radical Inquisitor’s Rayna van Firkrag. Front side view.

If you see this, post a magic user. Unsanctioned psyker you say? That makes my Libarian as angry as is helmet implies 😠 #Nerdlings #Oldhammer #WarhammerCommunity #Dadhammer

A 1995 pewter Space Marine Librarian with a Force Axe, Bolt Pistol and a very angry looking helmet. Painted in blue with copper trim and helmet.

After 185 hours over 8 months of playing I have finally finished my first game of Baldur’s Gate 3, and all I can say is what a game! I’m going to miss Maybelle my lil redemption Durge and all her pals but will definitely play again one day with a new character. #baldursgate3 #bg3 #darkurge

A screen shot of the farewell party in Baldur’s Gate 3 centered on my character Maybelle. She is a deep gnome with pale blueish/purplish skin and dark blue hair and wearing a lavish silver and grey outfit, holding up a golden cup. Scratch, a white dog, is sitting on the left side of the picture and Astarion, a vampire elf, is standing on the right.

To be fair no branding (or pot, for that matter) matches the classic Citadel Colour paints from when I first started collecting Warhammer but at least the new one isn’t as bad as the black top pots. So many of my old colours dried out in those 😕

A collection of 4 generations of Citadel Paints going from oldest on the left to newest on the right, all still with working paint in.

Alex B@alsoldhammer· 14d

Ah damn I forgot about this, so sad that I’d already bought my last Citadel paint a while ago without realising it 😞 the style of the new branding is so boring compared to the old one. #nerdlings #warhammer #oldhammer #citadelpaint #oldmandoesntlikechange

Two pots of Games Workshop Abaddon Black Base paint, one in the stylish Citadel Colour branding and one in the boring new Warhammer branding.

I was just buying some new primer and this jumped into my basket! I’m getting a bit bored of Space Marines so think I’ll start on some of the Imperium’s more interesting characters, including this fantastic mini. Never worked with a resin model before so I’m a little nervous! 😬 #nerdlings

Lady Credo Rebel Lord mini for Necromunda new and sealed in her box, on a red Army Painter cutting mat.

Ooh very nice! I did my own banner bearer a while back with a cat themed banner though this one is based on my pet cat Mabel.

AoS Cities of Sigmar Steelhelm Banner bearer with a trupmet holing a huge yellow and purple flag sporting an image of a fearsome black and white beast... based on my tuxedo cat Mabel.

Hi everyone, I’ve finally finished work on the 7 Tactical Marines with Boltguns I’ve been working on. They are a mix of 2nd and 3rd edition marines and will be joined by their Sargeant and special weapons soon. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #oldhammer #dadhammer #spacemarine #40K #minipainting

Hmm there is a distinct lack of butts in my miniature collection but here are the best I’ve got!

Alex B@alsoldhammer· Jul 9

Yeah I’m behind this 100%

Space Marine Tactical Squad painted in an Ultramarines style blue and copper armour with red guns.

Quote with your horn art! Just a couple of guys with gold balls between their horns, as was the fashion in those days. #nerdlings #oldhammer #dadhammer #heroquesr

Classic Hero Quest Chaos Warrior clad in black armour, wearing a mighty horned helm and hefting an axe in one hand.

I’m still working on my second squad of Tactical Marines, just doing the layering and highlighting at the moment.

7 early 2000s Tactical Marines in the process of being painted.

Alex B@alsoldhammer· Jul 3

Hmm I think my shiniest model so far is Aandrias Aethanus, Captain of the Ultima Paragons 2nd Company. He wears a suit of resplendent copper coloured artificer armour complete with red gems. #nerdlings #oldhammer

This WIP Wednesday I have a bit of an update on my Tactical Marines with Bolters. Finished all the washes and they are ready for highlights and details. #wipwednesday #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #oldhammer #dadhammer

Seven 3rd Edition Tactical Marines with Bolters painted up to the washing stage standing in front of a row of DVDs.
