Warhammer Giant, desk tidy up and Big Boris Mk3

Hello again.

Today I have scraped the thick layer of dust from my work desk and cracked open a couple of minis.

The Warhammer giant was really fun to put together and I went for the vanilla version.  The kit really has bolstered my bits box beyond belief.  Games workshop could maybe chop a tenner off it and not include the massive amount of extra bits...

Some pictures included of the usual clipping, filing, sanding and modelling knife scraping.  I also used a bit of milliput to fill the gaps.  I much prefer this to the traditional green stuff, it's much easier to work with and fits in small gaps much better as eel as reacting well with water.

Secondly I put together Big Boris Mk III from Heresy Miniatures www.heresyminiatures.com it really is probably the nicest metal cast mini i've ever had. Barely needed any prep work.  Just a bit of buffing with fine steel wool. Oh and he is big, Marneus Augustus Calgar in space marine armour for reference.

You can also follow the owner of Heresy Miniatures on twitter (he's quite entertaining!) check the contact us page on his website.

I have also decided that whenever I remember I will update twitter to point to this blog. Oh I'm @samwross :)

First Heresy miniatures purchase and warhammer giant!

Hello there,

Just a post showing my latest purchases.

I finally stumped up for the latest version of heresy's most famous miniature "big boris" he is gorgeous, really nice cast with very few mould lines and the ones that are present are very subtle. Makes me wish I ordered him ages ago.

top notch service from Andy @ heresy as well.

Decided to celebrate leaving the old job by buying something totally random and I decided on the warhammer giant.

Amazing kit... I have taken some close up pictures of the sprues for everyone.  As you can see there is a great deal of extra stuff there!!

Sorry about the order of the pictures, it must work slightly differently on a mac... yes I have binned my PC, well I am selling  it and going full steam ahead on mac hardware only!!

hopefully the next update will be one with some painting in it!!!
