    Rain in England - anyone here affected?

    Just what the title says - is anyone here affected by the rains in the north of England? One news story I read (think it was Beeb) said that rai like that only came once every 1,000 years or somesuch. If you are affected, is there anything we here could do to help you out?

    Something neat from Forge World

    After a lot of 'meh' from Forge World, I'm actually impressed by this newest figure. Is it just me, though, or is this thing HUGE?:

    Chaos Flesh Tearers

    I've gotten some Chaos Marines from clients as partial payment for some painting commissions, so I thought I'd have an interesting go at a side army. I love the Flesh Tearer colors, and I've always liked their background. They really seemed to 'fit' into the setting, I suppose because their...

    Why is Australia called OZ?

    A simple question, but one that has eluded me.

    Faces trapped in a flat surface

    I'm painting a daemon weapon for a Khorne Lord, and instead of the normal power weapon glow, I'd like to paint something that looks like faces or souls trapped in the blade. Can anyone point me to a good example picture of this, or a tutorial/article that shows how? My attempts haven't been so...

    Insomnia

    I got it. I hate it. I thought I'd share with any who want to commiserate. :curse!:

    Land Raider Redeemer or Crusader?

    The title says it all: I'm debating on how to put my new kit together. I'm going to be using the LR for my Imperial Fist's Cities of Death Army, but I'd like it to be useful in normal games as well. The plan is to have some Vanguard Veterans in there, ready to do some hurt. I can see benefits...

    Ebay losing money - surprise?

    Check this out: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8319657.stm I\'m wondering if this comes as a surprise to anyone here. I hope this might make them consider changing their policies to be more friendly to the small operations that try to do business there. Personally, I\'m not that...

    How would you describe your style?

    I\'m looking over at a commission right now, and realized that I really, REALLY dislike bold colors these days. I find myself constantly trying to mix browns into the colors to grunge them up a bit. Even with space marine models, I\'m really trying to avoid the \"no dirt in space\" look. So...

    Amazingly lonely here

    So, my wife is working out of town four days a week, and its getting lonely here. It just doesn\'t feel right to be in this house with all our friends here, and not have her around. If anyone else is in this situation, I would really appreciate some advice on dealing with this.

    Soul Drinkers omnibus?

    Didn\'t know if this should be in the 40K forum or not, so move it if you like. I figured there might be people who like sci-fi that aren\'t specific fans of 40K, though, and I\'m hoping to get their opinions as well. I saw the Soul Drinkers omnibus by Ben Counter in the bookstore today. It...

    Nazi Costumes?

    I just read a story about New Zealand students getting in trouble for dressing up as Nazis during an Oktoberfest dorm party, and now I\'m curious. Prince Harry created a stir by doing the same thing a few years back, and I remember some sort of flap about some British ex-pats doing it in Hong...

    Making Fun of Terrorists? (politics warning)

    Just saw THIS interesting article on the Times website. Though I don\'t really want to start an argument, I\'m curious to see what you folks think about this social approach to failed terrorists. My own opinion is that this is right on. Guys who are inspired by the greatest minds of the 7th...

    Fidel Castro and a track suit

    I saw this article on the Beeb website, and I have a serious, if a bit strange, question. Why are almost all the pictures I see of Fidel Castro of him wearing a blue track suit? I\'m serious, is this a cultural thing, or is this just as strange to Cubans as it is to me? Not that CMON is...

    Pros and cons of P3 paints?

    Hey all, I need some help. I\'ve got a lot of people asking me recently about how P3 paints stack up to GW and Vallejo paints. I\'m very familiar with GW and Vallejo, but I\'m only passing familiar with the P3 line - I haven\'t used it on many projects, and I\'ve only used it over black...

    Chestnut Ink replacements?

    So I started painting a warhammer army some time ago, and Chestnut ink was one of the main colors I used on the bases and some details. Then GW thought, for some reason, that the color wasn\'t worthy of becoming one of their new washes, and discontinued it altogether. Grrr. I want to keep the...

    Cool Color/Paint matching site

    So I joined the Bolter and Chainsword a while back, and while I\'m not a huge fan of the forums, they have a really neat army painter web program that allows you to virtually paint a marine, terminator or Sister of Battle. Pretty cool. Then, because the underworld froze over, my mother decided...
