I started collecting Warhammer 40K when I was 12, over 10 years ago and my passion for the hobby has stood since. Having several armies already completed I always dreamed of the day when I would be able to begin creating my own Warhammer 40K conversion kits and thanks to advancements in technology that day has finally come. Having been interested in 3D printing for several years now I only now believe it's gotten to the point where it is refined and detailed enough to feel at home among any Warhammer army.

If you had the power to forge anything what would we see on your tabletop?

I've only just started to dabble, personally I've always wanted SNIPER BOLTERS and hence my first of many models.

Unfortunately 90% of that cost is just for production and not in my control.

That's my gripe with 3D printing. It's not doable for a decent price. People are charging you €10 just to start up the printer (No seriously, startup fees are ridiculous).

If I want to print 5 necron legs and 5 necron front chests so I can turn some dual kits into two squads, I'm paying as much as I would for another box of the things.

You don't have to be happy when you lose, just don't make winning the condition of your happiness.
