My favourite part of the hobby would have to be the people at my FLGS as they have really helped me with a lot of my models and how I should design them and hooked me up with extra bitz it I need them and I am really grateful for that they also tell me about tactics and things and are always up for a game.

Also another part of it is that I try to put myself in the battle and imagine everything going on around me and I LOVE IT!!!

so I was wondering what is everyone else's favourite part of the hobby Dakkanauts

The lore. And the game. And the modeling two. The painting is also quite enjoyable. Shoot, everything but the prices

Modelling and the background.

Playing.

when the collecting, modelling, painting and gaming all come into one bundle. Then it feels like a great hobby, regardless of the price tags.

Modelling and construction with the lore

Modelling, then painting, then lore, then gaming.

That said, since I absolutely love playing, you can imagine how much I enjoy the former three aspects of the hobby.

I love the gaming and fluff side closely followed by modelling and then painting. I hate fielding an unpainted army though.

I love the fluff, and the actually playing of the game. Modeling although fun is not my top priority and painting is a headache for me.

I agree with the above poster though, I hate fielding unpainted armies.

The gaming then the fluff by a wide margin.

1. Fluff
2. Modelling
3. Painting
4. Gaming

Hmmms

First off I would have to say,after working 10+ hrs a day in grueling heat coming home and painting for awhile or on the weekends is very relaxing

Then I would have to say the people I have met over the years.

1. Hanging out at work looking at dakka
2. Thinking about conversion projects but never actually doing it
3. Playing
4. modeling
5. painting

Sitting down with friends and rolling dice. Physically moving around figures, measuring, adding tokens, checking stats, etc. is all fun too. The tactile and social elements really make tabletop gaming shine for me.

In no particular order

- Playing the game
- Painting/modelling
- Having a hobby
- People

Like ninjafiredragon said, pretty much everything except the prices.

Playing the game with my friends and having a few beers. Just the best way to spend an afternoon or evening.

Army list building.

I find it therapeutic.
