Television is rather a frightening business. But I get all the relaxation I want from my collection of model soldiers.

A Man of Wealth and Taste

Heresy Miniatures call him the Netherlord but let's not kid outselves: he's the Big Guy, the Great Adversary, Old Nick himself.


This was a long one. Bought, built and pinned just before the birth of my eldest, he was the first miniature I ever tried an airbrush on for the Base coat.  He then got packed away with all the other stuff while life got taken over with work, a child, buying a family home and a Masters.

But I cracked him out a couple of months ago and I've been chipping away at details and layers on and off between other projects since the summer.

And now he's done.

The only question is, where do I store him? He's a massive piece of lead!

  4. He looks great! Next to the elf you realise how big he is, I can see what you mean about storage being an issue.
