So my wife loves Forgeworld. She actually likes my hobby, and it gives her something that she can do for birthdays and Christmas, that's easy enough to choose (pretty much anything from Forge World is going to go over well with me, even if I have no intention of playing the army). Last Christmas she bought me the Bloodthirster, which actually made me rebuild my Daemon army. For my birthday, she got me Grot Tanks. Nothing says "I love you" like ramshackle miniature armored vehicles with grots inside.

If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be married. There need to be more like her in the world.

Hi great work and great wife mine got me grot tanks when they got released for my birthday, she aint so much into the hobby but love grots and orks for some reason shame because she can paint really well (one day she will turn to the dark side).I gather the top tank on its own is a scratch build if you don't mind me asking what did you use for the parts?

That's a special lady you've got there! <3

Also, those tanks are awesome. Grots always make me laugh, for some reason, and grot tanks are amazing!

I have recently been diagnosed with swelling in the brain, so please excuse spelling mistakes and faulty sentences. I am losing my ability to type and talk effectively, but dammit, that is not going to stop me from trying.
