First purchase on ebay (would've been second if i hadn't have been sniped for a near complete Dark Vengeance set)

Going to be my first time working with metal so some tutorial watching is definitely in order.

Very excited waiting for the postwoman to drop this off :grinning:

My advice? Buy everything, and don't paint anything good yet! 😂 although to be fair with metal you can at least strip and rebuild easily enough.

Looks great! Has it arrived yet @Stephen ?
Is that a named character? Not sure if I remember that one

It arrived earlier today, its not named but I really like the old-style winged helmets. It doesnt have the banner piece though, so either I need to find one or think of something else in its place, any suggestions?

Banners are silly. 😜
I'll probably have one spare if you want 👌

You could maybe try get bits from a primaris ancient for the flag piece although it may be abit massive 🤣

After chatting to @pawl he's sure he has the banner I need in a HUGE box of assorted bit and bobs, so that'll be fantastic to have it complete.

It is my intention to drag put everything I have and photograph it, that way I can put together my list of things to pickup. Then its strip back, fix and start all over, I have no idea why younger me thought Salamanders were a good choice for me.

It's still there mate 👍
Why not use trello? Think it was @James that got me into it - have a look and you'll see there's a new board on there that I'll be fleshing out.

Get a list together, hit up Element. For stripping you know where the guide is 👌
