Every marine army needs a metal box. Going to be the ride for my sternguard. Not glued a single bit yet.

Practice, for a rhino top hatch. I think painting a red scorpion freehand will be easier than I think.

A pencil drawing of a scorpion design. The design is in a rectangle labelled 36mm x 50mm. In the bottom right corner there is a much smaller red scorpion decal.

More versions of the same rough scorpion drawn in pencil

Taken most of the day, but I’ve got my notes ready for the next The One Ring rpg adventure I’m running. Also sorted out most of the antagonists. Just need to paint ‘Gandalf’.

Question for all the hobby people. I want a rhino for my Red Scorpions, and it’ll be cool to have a big scorpion symbol on the top hatches. So any ideas/advice on how to make a stencil to help me spray/sponge it on? Particularly a good material to use. #Nerdlings

Spend the day playing Rimworld for the first time in ages. My little sheep and donkey farm was going really well, until someone got kidnapped, and some else got mauled to death by a Rottweiler with a broken heart.

That’s the Vanguard Veterans all done, just need a decent day to get them varnished. #Nerdlings

I do make things hard for myself. Like 2 hours cleaning up the grey, 4-5 very delicate coats.

5 light-grey space marine helmets bluetacked to painting handles.

The cart is now attached to the horse. I’ve tried to copy the harness on the MTO carts GW had up a few weeks ago. Don’t think I can remove the cart now, so painting it’s going to be awkward. Making legs for the driver has gone less well… I ain’t showing pictures of that… #Nerdlings

Bellerophon @bellerophon383.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

Done some putty work on the BSB. I’ve never been great at sculpting with any putty, but I think this should past for fur once he’s painted. And now he’s WYSIWYG. #Nerdlings

Metal Warhammer miniature with some pale yellow fur sculpted on.

Bellerophon @bellerophon383.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

Made progress on various things today, including cutting off the wolf head from the Ulric priest. Took bloody ages, but he’s now in a place where I can attempt to sculpt some fur round the back.

Coffee stirrers, superglue and a dream of a baggage cart. That A at GCSE D&T finally coming in handy. Still got to work out how to actually attach the horse and wheels. The paper is a start on a bear rug. #Nerdlings.

That’s the 6th event of 2026 completed, I goal I’ve had for a few years but never reached. 3 Old World, 3 MESBG. The Kislev however are retiring from competitive play (till they get a proper army list anyway). They just got no fight in them. Did get a another best painted/coolest army though.

Please be good 🙏 I’ve got an army to finish 🐻‍❄️

The Red Scorpion Vanguard Veterans have had their baptism in the sacred waters (Army Painted Strong Tone). Need to do the grey metallics, then I can start on the fun step of highlighting. #Nerdlings

Spent yesterday playing more Old World: Battlemarch. As per tradition the Kislev mostly got battered. I did win 1… of 5. Did however win the more important prize of coolest army. #Nerdlings

A small Warhammer old world army made up of classic Kislev miniatures. Behind the army there is a certificate for first place ‘artisan of the realm’ from Squarebased.

More Scorpions have arrived 👀 Chopping off the left shoulders isn’t exactly easy. But I want to give them smooth yellow ones, so they match the others. The new shoulders will need to hide many sins.

3 partly build space marine vanguard veterans.

I’ve been harvesting heads from old marines, so I can convert more Red Scorpions.

Commander ‘Xenophon’ ready to lead my Red Scorpions 1st company. Been painting him all day. Switching out Canok Var for Lysander was definitely the right decision. #Nerdlings

They look way longer to do than the terminators, but they are done and looking super menacing. #Nerdlings

Lysander and the sternguard arrived, so I’ve finally got 1000pts for the Red Scorpions. The sternguard are mostly held together with white tack for undercoating, and de-fisting Lysander was a trial. #Nerdlings

A space marine army. Most of the models are painted grey and yellow.

Bellerophon @bellerophon383.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

Even in death, I still serve. Done, other than a varnish. Just waiting on some Sternguard and Lysander to turn up, and I’ll have 1000pts. #Nerdlings

More progress. The stripes on the legs were harder to do than the head plate, but I’m still happy. A deep turquoise contrast over black has made the gun look very interesting.

Got ahead of myself, thinking the terminators would be done today, as these took fucking ages. And it’s only 1/3 of them. #Nerdlings
