D&D spiders. Making a unit or them to be fiends for Kings of War.

Sternguard for my Ultras.

Purchased four old metal Eldar off eBay.

Picked up 3 bases of BattleTech Elementals, that new Army Painter drybrush kit (I have a lot of 'Mechs to paint!), and this beauty, available only to retailers as part of the BTech Kickstarter.

Picked up a Lady of Depravity from Creature Caster - my gods this is some good resin casting!!

House of Iron and House of Artifice for Necromunda, along with their respective specialist boxes.

After getting all my necrons into their new foam trays I discovered that I'd made a miscalculation & that they would not all fit in my existing case...
I solved this by picking up a Battle Foam PACK 1520 case.

I've gone crazy over the 2000AD aesthetic and have started collecting Blackstone Fortress miniatures to use in Rogue Trader (or a new DIY KillTeam ruleset I'm brainstorming ATM).

Also bought the Euclidian Starstriders sprue for some more Rogue Trader minis!

Next up will probably be more cool looking single miniatures from the existing GW & FW lineup. Its much more fun to collect single minis than Armies somehow!

I found the same pretty quickly after coming back to the hobby. I enjoy painting single miniatures more then large groups of miniatures. Just cannot get into painting lots of the same.

OK ,my recent purchases are more Burrows and Badgers miniatures and another lot of second hand paint. One vital purchase was a tub of brush soap.

I'm planning on going big on Orks this year, but I made a list of minis I want/ have to paint before really starting off with the orks (that means, buying about 100Boys from various sources). Problem is, there are about 100 models on that list already
But to start soft I've ordered Gitstompa and Nikkit and the Kommandoz Team from artelw though.

Venturing into AOS for the first time this year. Had a handful of Nurgle Demons from a while back which I enjoyed painting so decided to head down that way.
Gone for Maggotkin so picked up the book, the SC Maggotkin of Nurgle box, a Great Unclean one and a Gnarlwood to get started with. Fully intend to build the army up based around the idea of the classic Chaos warband, lots of rag-tag units, Skaven, Beastmen, Chaos Warriors, monsters all dedicated to Papa Nurgle.

A couple of recent WD issues as they have additional Squig/Troll/Spider list rules for my Gloomspites.
A box of SoB Penitent Engines/Mortifiers as I have a great idea for an RPG character/enemy after seeing these models on the table.
Illuminor Szeras - because hey, 1 more Necron to try & fit in my already very full case....

Local store was selling off Beastgrave at 50% off - well I'd planned on getting it for ages for the wild hunt models and such - so jumped on it!

Primaris Intercessors, pot of Wild Rider red, the vanilla Astartes codex and the Blood Angels supplement.

Purchased some old metal Necromunda from BigWaaagh.

Cheers,

Just the other day, I ordered some paint (specifically primer) and also a bit of static grass and general scatter terrain pieces to paint up (things like stacks of crates and the like)

Paints, brushes.
A SC GSC
A Jackal leader
A A squad of the correspondign bikers
A squad of bloodletters
A skulltaker
A codex GSC.

Oh and greenstuff.

that and 60 WW1 germans from wargames atlantic, allbeit those SHOULD've been here like 2 months ago.... what with the brits going nuts....

Anyways, this will be a project planned as kitbashing, conversion and most importantly stand in to my other soon to be finished projects.

Which really reminds me that i should do a group shooting.

Ordered the main BSF boxed set so now I'm only missing two more expansions and I have all the models in the range! I'm not even sure I'll be digging the game itself, but just have to get all those wonderful models. Rechecked the KillTeam Annual 2019 datasheets and sure enough most of the BSF minis will have sheets for KillTeam

Plus some more bitz for my BA army in the making. Still need a bunch of empty pistol holsters, I'll need at least 6 more..

3 boxes of Necron Tomb Blades.

Bringing my total up to a frightening 27 Blades (3 full units).

Bought some storage boxes to make a magnetic storage box or carry case for some of my armies. Managed to get some magnetic sheets that were too weak though.

I wound up buying the oathmark rule book, because i have an unfortunate desire to own many rule books.

I feel this on a deep level. Frostgrave, Stargrave, and Gamma Wolves all went on my wishlist last night.

I bought a bunch of Vallejo things (thick muds, water effects, and flesh tones) and a couple of decent paint brushes.

Bought a Vindicare Assassin model to replace a part I lost for the Vinidcare Assassin I'm currently working on for 75 NZD. I feel like an idiot, 40k is just so expensive here, I don't buy much a GW so, it's not too bad, I guess. I might convert the new model to my Inquisitor NPC Azakir Halgriv of my ongoing Rogue Trader campaign, which I will be unlikely to get around to doing.

Lieutenant Amulius (the Ltd. Ed. one with the helmet under his arm), as I think he'll make a good alternate Captain for my Primaris force.

Also 4 BSF Spindle Drones.

Well, I've ordered three times: (1) SK, (2) two squads of Necron Warriors, and (3) one squad of Necron Warriors plus Cryptek.

Nothing arrived so far...

Oh I forgot to mention: a whole bunch of little barrels for scatter terrain.

Managed to find someone selling this guy cheap:


He had a bunch of other stuff as well, including the Imperial Space Marine, but decided to just stick with the Captain.

What can I say, I like Ltd. Ed. minis. I own so many of them.

I initially didn't understand the appeal of limited edition minis, although the space marines are worth getting simply because you can't get those loadouts anywhere else.

I picked up two rules sets to review later this year:

Gangs of Rome from Footsore Miniatures
Chain Reaction from Two-Hour Wargames
