Blood Angels vehicles

 Painted up some vehicles for my friend James, they were definitely 'fixer uppers' as I'm told they were bargains from ebay. They were in various stages of assembly and paint, but after some biostrip20, some pinning and a few magnets they are back in shape for the battlefield.

 Might do a bit more detailing and maybe a few transfers tomorrow.

40K scenery using Mantic battlezone sets

 Took some time and assembled some of the scenery I got from the Deadzone kickstarter I backed.
The kits are good, very flexible in what you can build from them as long as its based around 3" cubes/squares which I don't mind as its a fair compromise between usability and modularity.

 I still have a landing pad to assemble, think I might magnetise the support legs for ease of packing/storing it. Also I still have a few of the fortification pieces left so still more can be eked out of the kits.

 Space marine miniatures shown in some of the pictures are for scale only.

New display cabinet for miniatures

 My original cabinet was getting a little overfull, so after a quick trip to Ikea another one was obtained for the bargain price of £40. Unfortunately they are no longer selling them in the wood colour only black or white, so I went with white to match the wall behind it. They have also stopped selling the previous light so instead I got their new LED lighting kit (£20), which comes with 4 lights that can be controlled from one switch, and is really easy to connect and use.

 Assembly of the cabinet wasn't too bad by myself, but it would definitely be easier with 2 people.

 If you are looking for a reasonably priced display cabinet, the Ikea Detolf is well worth getting hold of.
