We might even get a game of 3rd Ed WHFB played some day when I get some more Slann done, it would be pretty retro cool to do a Fimir Vs. Slann battle during next year if you are up for it - god knows I will need some kind of motivation to do some work on them. <br />;)theottovonbismarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959484735230585523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-32177481258695991952013-11-13T12:55:37.059+00:002013-11-13T12:55:37.059+00:00Cheers for the link.

I'm over in Galway.<br /><br />I use magnetic strip on all my bases, both for storage and so they stay in their move trays, seems to make sense to use it for base add-ons too.Mr Saturdayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03092917415087033316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-51479769580055439442013-11-13T12:37:12.511+00:002013-11-13T12:37:12.511+00:00Doh, forgot to link article:

Typically I use them as strip bases for epic minis (with a bit of green stuff for structural support) as I can then store them easily in metal boxes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-58081173893559178782013-11-12T16:37:41.324+00:002013-11-12T16:37:41.324+00:00Cheers!Cheers!Mr Saturdayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03092917415087033316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-63378768128231983342013-11-12T16:28:11.542+00:002013-11-12T16:28:11.542+00:00Well, my 2013 version of Kaleb Daark :
