I saw THIS post, and had to use the idea! Just brilliant.

Sanguinary Guard MkII WIP

August 29th 2010 · Read More · View Comments

I quickly built up the rest of my Sanguinary Guard on Thursday so I could use them in a 1k game, the army is only 14 models strong.. so I expect it to perform terribly!

The End..

Of the Deathwing Commission is close!
I was meant to have this done a while back.. but due to unforseen happenings I’ve had to delay all the commissions recently,

SO, the Deathwing are nearly done:

The Easterlings are coming along nicely:

As are the Corsairs:

I recently sold a LOAD of stuff on Ebay, including this guy:

The Stealers have had a bit of an update too:

And the Sangy Guard are slowly getting built between projects:

eBay Fees… Ouch.

Been doing some math…

Out of the £634.74 I raised from selling old models this week, paypal take £26.62 of that.
3.4%+ 20p for each transaction, or 3.9%+20p if the money is from outside of your country (Uk for me)

ebay then take 10% from the final selling value. I’m tricksy and manage to avoid all insertion fees (start at 0.99p and paste the img codes into the HTML description box instead of uploading multiple photos). They don’t take the postage costs into account here, which is a good thing.
So they take £54.74!

Meaning I have to pay the ebay/paypal company of evil £81.36 overall.

Which I deem absolutely horrendous for the service they supply. They must make an absolute fortune!

The NEW Hobby Fund

August 17th 2010 · Read More · View Comments

I spent WAAAY too much on stuff this year at uni (I work in academic year rather than calendar…)
So the way the new hobby fund will be built up is through buying, painting and then selling miniatures on ebay, this I can do at my leisure, put the money on my special paypal card and only spend what’s on it!

So at the moment the hobby fund stands at £0, so when I purchase a model it’ll be in the negative, but I can hopefully put it into the positive again.

The Daemon Prince I painted went for £63 in the end, so a profit of around £43! I sold a few other bits and pieces, raising money for rent and my NEW SANGUINARY GUARD ARMY! (More on that later!)

For now I need to get my commissions finished, I hurt my back last week and it’s been too uncomfortable to paint since, it feels a bit better now.. so painting should resume shortly.
