I'm very tempted with 8th ed after hearing how they've sorted the rules out.

I tried painting the other day. First time in ages. Been very close to binning off the whole thing this past couple of years as I can't find the patience to do a decent job of it. I painted 'professionally' for a year, in that I got paid to do it for a small start up based in Cardiff a good while back. My level improved greatly but it killed my passion. I love Oldhammer as my early days fall into that era and really want to dive back into the painting side of it, but I just can't get my mojo back. Anyway, last week's attempt just didn't really work out. I'm tempted to get something outside of the Oldhammer era just to paint something CLEAN. The older pewter minis can be a bit ropey. I need a bit of painting by numbers...

Couldn't be fucked with all that painting.

This is what stopped me getting into it when I was 11.

I can’t say it’s something I regret.

I think painting was the major killer for me, there's just to much else going on in my old age to find the time to do it.

Pity, converting is probably my favourite part.

I don't play the game anymore but I do still keep my hand in the painting aspect. This was a gift from my brother for my 33rd birthday this month, got him painted up in record speed! Two weeks

Is that a mix of citadel and vallejo I see in the background?

I mainly use Citadel since that's what I learnt with aged 5, but my second favourite would be Vallejo. Also got a smattering of Master Series Paints, AK, AMMO and The Army Painter.
