Just as annoying as the 'We have to talk about (thing)' videos

My all time favourite Tzeentch figure!

Not me I'm afraid. I did a lot of the deathmatch maps. I went on to work on Rune then I left the industry due to my health.

:) There's some near the bottom of my profile page. Oh and I just read your profile. It seems we are all real nerds LOL I was a Level designer on Unreal 2 👍

Awesome model, I did a conversion of it back in the 80's

I've had an electric car since 2021. There's no way on earth I'd go back to petrol.

Don't even ask what I used to make the snow on my Space Wolves bases 😁

Looks great! It's a fun project isn't it?

Mick Beard @mick-beard.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Enjoy! It's a great figure to paint.

Mick Beard @mick-beard.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

Probably the best I've painted since I've been back. Well certainly the one I happiest with

Absolutely with you on that one

I had this when I was a kid. My brother had the other variant that had a magnetic winch and little radioctive barrels with magnets attached. I preffered his because the nose and leg metal parts were white like on the TV show.

I hope you are on the mend. You've done a fine job on a beautiful sculpt.

I love this. They used this design on T-shirts that they gave to the Golden Demon regional winners back in the late 80's - early 90's.

Great work, I love it! I'm definitey going to get Krethusa myself as it's a stunning sculpt imo

Logan Grimnar finished and I’m quite pleased with the result . Still things I need to improve on, but happy with my progress after 9 months back into painting #warhammer #warhammer40k #miniaturepainting #warhammercommunity #painting #paintingminiatures #paintingwarhammer #logangrimnar #spacewolves

This was a real slog towards the end but I'm happy with how (most of it) turned out. It's a stunning piece and hope I've done it justice. #warhammer #warhammer40k #miniaturepainting #warhammercommunity #painting #paintingwarhammer #adeptasororitas #battlesisters40k

Great paint job so far, I love the Hospitaller

Mick Beard @mick-beard.bsky.social · 25/03/2025

The Hospitaller - I really liked this little set piece. I've got an urge to paint 'The Triumph of St. Katherine' so I thought i'd paint this first to see how I got on. #warhammer #warhammer40k #miniaturepainting #warhammercommunity #painting #paintingwarhammer #sistersofbattle40k

Thank you, I'm seriously tempted to do a remake using modern minis and basing materials, I think it would be a stupid fun project :)

My first ever competition entry. Gamesday 1987, Honourable mention in the Vignette Category. The figures/scenics are chipped and the resin looks so bad with age. Should I try to restore it, or leave it as it is? #miniaturepainting #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #citadel #citadelminiatures

I feel your pain but stick with it. These are the minis that turn into your best work yet!

Another Space Woof! As I was painting it I realised that the last time I painted a Terminator Helmet was 1990..Yikes #warhammer #warhammer40k #miniaturepainting #warhammercommunity #painting #paintingwarhammer #spacemarines

I love the older Spacewolves Terminators. This one was a joy to paint. #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity #miniaturepainting #spacewolves

1/ I used the 2 Thin Coates paint range. both base coated with Skeleton Legion. Then used washes Archaic Sepia, Battle mud and Oblivion Black. Varied the wash amount to get the variety between the wolves. Highlighted the light fur with Trooper white and the black fur with Wolf Grey.

WIP Logan Grimnars' sled, taking me longer than I thought, but i'm really enjoying it. #warhammercommunity #warhammer #warhammer40k

Oh without a doubt. I was offered a studio painter gig but GW being GW, the money was so bad I couldn't take the job. Paul left a few years after me and got a supervisor job at GW in the factory. He couldn't afford to take drop in pay to be a studio painter either :(
