Used to customise the plastic Warhammer 40,000 figures...

Got quite creative in terms of adding damaged to armour... and even developed a three nozzle jetpack...

Kinda sad really... I was 25 at the time!  :oops:

I used to do 40k for the creativity, only played the game a handful of times. Loved the building, painting, then repainting, etc....

I dread to think how many £*** or possibly even £**** have been spent in there over the years just from me and my brother when we were younger. A great way to lose an afternoon (and that was just a quick game).

At the start of the summer a friend tried to get me back into it....
£ per buck though it didn't stand a chance compared to the range rover.
