Cold War Brits


I'm in the process of moving house at the moment so not a huge amount is getting done painting and hobby wise. I did however manage to paint up these cold war brits from Elhiem miniatures. There 20mm which was a lot quicker to paint, and a touch cheaper. The sculpts are lovely and I already have another 4 on the table. 

I can see a lot of 20mm in my future, the sheer amount of time I saved by painting these instead of 28mm makes it much more practicable hobbywise as time is tight. 


In other news I sold another part of my soul to Gamesworkshop. I noticed they had re-released the most recent edition of Space Hulk for another limited run (now sold out) and with she who must be obeyed's blessing grabbed myself a copy.

At £75 I would usually say this is typically steep for Gamesworkshop, but as my wife and I play board games and have bought a fair few over the years from other manufacturers for close to this price I'm thinking its not actually that outrageous.

Anyway I just couldn't resist, when this edition was first released there was no way I could afford it but this time round life is a bit rosier and its got a real nostalgic link for me as I played 2nd edition a lot when I was younger.

  1. Would love to have the Space Hulk boardgame myself. I agree that it's pricey though. But it looks good!

  3. While fake Audemars Piguet not as groundbreaking as a brand new case size, the new addition to the 39.5 mm Aquis lineup might be even more attractive. The fake IWC most eye-catching new addition is undoubtedly the bright new “oceanic fake Franck Muller blue” sunburst dial color, a much lighter blue with a greenish touch that calls to mind shallow tropical seas. Just as impressive on closer fake Vacheron Constantin inspection, however, is the new bezel insert in scratch resistant tungsten. Catching the light in a subtly different way than the stainless replica watches steel of the main case, this insert is a low profile but attractive way to set this new offering apart from the pack. This new model will replica watches uk only be available paired with Oris’ oyster style bracelet, which like the 41.5mm variant receives a signed clasp fake rolex with diver’s extension.
