Merry Christmas everyone, hope everyone has a good one!

Sounds absolutely banging that does!

What was the Christmas Eve takeaway of choice?

Really impacts how good it is cold! 😂

You’ve ordered your Tuesday takeaway on a Wednesday so I’d say you’re off to a great start mate 😂

Patrick Ball 2025 PlayStation year in review

While I think Expedition 33 was the best game I played this year, the most played game of 2025 was Persona 5 Royal which was another absolute banger - probably going to replay both in 2026

Cypher Lord of the Fallen by Patrick Ball

Reshot Cypher in the light box, really like how this model turned out - one of the best characters in 40K!

Thank you! The joy of chrome markers 🙂

Cheers! Used a chrome marker for the first time to do them and love how they came out, definitely want to get an army with them

Cheers! I used a chrome marker to do them, first time using them but love how they came out

Forgot to post my first finished Eldar models a few weeks ago, so here they are. Got a second Wraithlord and an old metal Avatar to do next. #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Thank you 😊

Side-by-side of Cypher from when I first did him when the new version of the model dropped in 2017 compared with the one I finished recently. Makes me realise my painting has actually come a long way. #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Forgeworld Avatar and metal Avatar

Size comparison of Forgeworld Avatar and old school metal Avatar. Gonna paint them up side by side over next few weeks.

Cryptic Cabin Orctober 2025 challenge set

Cryptic Cabin Orctober 2025 challenge model

Cryptic Cabin October challenge box has arrived. Three awesome P3 paints, two nice brushes and a cool Orc model that I’ve not seen before. Got a solid five weeks to do something fun with them. Looking forward to seeing all the other attempts too!

Warhammer+ 2025 model Infinity’s Lament and Warhammer Store Anniversary 2025 rewards

Not a bad hobby day. My local store anniversary stuff arrived from the other week as well as this year’s free model for Warhammer+. Also managed to order the Remnant Blade book from Alchemists Workshop 🙂 #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Yeah, I’d never pay the scalped price for a book, would have just gone the kindle route but so glad to grab the hard back.

Absolute scum of the Earth, every hobby I have is plagued by them.

So glad I’ve seen you share this

Really wanted the book and was gutted when they were all gone and on eBay for double

Got one ordered with Alchemist now 🙂

Must be a fossil then 🤷🏾‍♂️ sorry, I don’t make the rules 😂

Me and the little one watched this last night and loved it. She’s 7 and watching her come to terms with the model’s age was hilarious - she asked if it was a fossil 🤦🏽‍♂️😂

Love it when past self comes through for you

Beats the usual being mad at past self for poor decisions and setting current self up to fail

Just discovered a teletext app and now I feel like a kid again

Night Lords War Band by Patrick Ball

Some Night Lords Helbrutes and Warp Talons I recently finished added to the warband #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Yeah I had one many many moons ago now where I got a box of three Necron destroyers that arrived with only green plastic rods for two of them so instead of sending more green rods they just sent another three destroyers 😂 so for the price of three, I ended up with five and the body for the D lord.

Props to GW customer support. Ordered a box of carnifexes and they arrived missing one of the weapon sprues so let them know and they just immediately send out a replacement no questions asked. Rarely needed to go to them over the years, but whenever I have done they’ve been top notch.

If you’re after some awesome old school Warhammer, check out this thread 👇🏾

Finished Expedition 33 and I have no words… the ending is just… yeah… gonna rethink my life

Racism is now something to be open, loud and proud about

At the point you pick it’s then available to order for you, so shouldn’t show yet. I’ve had Warhammer+ since it started and it’s how it’s worked every year for me and everyone else I’ve spoken to at least. Hope you get it cleared up anyway.

It’s subscribe on or after August 25 to be eligible for this years model not the model is available from August 25. Nobody has the new model yet, they only announced it around the 25th. They usually start going live in September and staggered across subscribers since all at once is harder to fulfil.
