Hi all,

First of all, I'm UK based, so product names may be UK only, I'm not sure.

In need of some short term advice as my cat's next check up is in a week.

First off, she's an old girl. Like, nearing 25 old. Despite this, she's still going strong and is remarkable.

Last night I noticed she seemed to be behaving a bit oddly, going around the lawn and peeing, licking down there, repeating. So I immediately took her to the OOH vet to hopefully nip any issues in the bud.

The vet examined her, did a blood test, and checked her thyroid. No signs of an infection, and her kidneys are in.good health (which frankly shocked me) but what did come up is she's got a very hyperactive thyroid, and has

Hi all!

I don't *think* this is breaking the rules so sorry to the mods if I'm mistaken!

I need a hand as I'm leaning into my Blood Angels being mostly Second Company, but I've hit a bit of a snag: the banner.

It is impossible to find either a plain banner that I can practice my free hand on (like the old space marine standard bearer had) and the ones that are Blood Angels themed aren't what I'm after. I have a terminator ancient banner for the first company but I don't really want to modify that as I only have one and will want it for a terminator ancient in the future.

Can anyone recommend me something? I want either a second company banner or a banner that's plain enough for me to t

Hi all!

If this isn't the place for it, or if there's somewhere else better to put this, please let me know!

I could do with some advice from someone who knows about up to date building safety codes and regulations, and how that interacts with Grade II Listed Buildings.

Basically, my partner and I have just moved into a Grade II as tenants. I won't disclose the building for privacy's sake, but there are some issues which I didn't really pick up on before we moved in as we were a little rushed due to relocating for work.

My major concerns are such:

1. The Windows

The windows are all either very old or the original windows. Most of them are large sash windows, while there are also two

Hi all!

I've never played Bolt Action in my life! However, there is a community for it, and I have some experience with WH40K, looking to branch out with my friends :)

I'm unfamilair with the rules but I want to be able to create a Polish army - I am more intrigued by early war Polish but if there's more for late war then that's fine too.

I want your experienced opinions on the best way to start relatively quickly - would it be better to buy one of the two-army starter sets, or buy one of the single army sets and a rulebook? Are any of the sets suitable for an early war Polish force?

Hi all!

I'm working on my Commander Dante and want to give him a special base!

My army has a pretty simple but specific basing scheme: I base with black sand, dry brush with sotek green, then a light brushing of baharoth blue to give it an alien blue scheme.

For Dante I have given him cork to raise him up and am aiming for a rocky outcropping. But I want to tie him to the rest of my army, so thought that black and blue pigment could give it a dusty tint that will make it look like it's in the same area.

My thoughts are that I will ise the black quite heavily to fill in the cracks and corners, and then the blue lightly to give it that tint.

My concerns are primarily with the fact that th

Hi all!

I'm wanting to re-paint my clone commanders face, and want it to be a bit special.

I originally just did a contrast paint and called it a day, I forget which, but I'm not happy with the look now and want to redo it now I have some more experience, and want to do it the traditional way.

Problem is, I still struggle with identifying the colour range I want to use. I think Cadian Fleshtone I want to be my brightest highlight to match Morrison's darker, more tanned looking skin tone. But I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to use for darker colours or what to mix with the CF paint. Any advice?

Hello again fellow Sanguine angels!

Some time ago I posted asking for help with a list, and constructed one tailored to my opponent.

Since then, the BA update has released, and I have fought against my opponent to varying degrees of success! (I lost but could actually put up a fight which was nice)

Of note: my opponent is a Black Templars player, but has been leaning into armour, with his list containing two armigers and an impulsor to carry his Marshal and sword brethren. I also know there's a full-on knight on the way, so that's why my list contains two Lancers.

I've decided to combine a brick of BA captain with intercessors, and a brick of DC with Lemartes so I've got some heavy figh

As title says, I've noticed my airbrushed model still smells a little 'sweet' after a few days. It's not reeking or anything, but if you get your nose close to it, it's definitely there.

The model is dry to the touch and I've been working on it since with a brush; is this just a case of the paint taking some time to cure with the thinner/flow improver? Is it because it's winter and the UK can be quite humid? I'm assuming (hoping) it's nothing to worry about?
