I did a little bit of hijacking a thread by Crystella33 yesterday, probably caused by disturbed night sleep and being somewhat "wired" because of it. And in hindsight and with a full nights sleep I regret doing that cos it was a bit thoughtless But I made an offer if anyone could ID a Movie...

I apologise about the amount of spam lately, if it has been irritating I understand. I've just killed off 79 spam posts this lunchtime, first time I've had internet feed during my lunch for a week. Can't always guarentee to hit them first pass in the morning you see.

More GW clear out items, box sets all metal (except where noted) NO FINECAST . Offering to Coolminiornot people for first options before Ebay. What I’m looking for is listed below (plus postage and packing) and yes I’m willing to ship worldwide. PM me with interests. The Out Of...

Well here she is, an enjoyable piece to work on, a swine to photograph. As you can see not the standard Pan Pipe Flautist, but still carrying her pipes. And as always with Fianna's she's wearing the "Impossible Bra" as my wife calls it. So to provide additional 360o views:- So...

Sad to find out about the Death of Lou Reed. Gifted man, Gifted storyteller. One of my Favorites

I've been working on a figure for Euro-Militaire today and as is my habit I've been listening to an audiobook. It surprised me that I've never read this but it was John Wyndham's "The Chrysalids". Ok it was published the year before I was born (1955) but the theme, depth, religous bigotry and...

OK, I as I've said in the past I'm lucky as I get to see, and approve, a lot of good stuff before most of you. This morning is no exception. In the awaiting approval section was a diorama, something I enjoy looking at, this one particularly captured my attention as it's really thought...

Yeah I'm just a big softy! No not my new bedtime cuddly, just something we had to pick up and hold onto for a friends daughters birthday.

Just got a Kickstarter update from West Wind Miniatures about the Empire of the Dead:Requiem sets. There's some nice pieces coming out and Andy Coopers sculpting is getting better and better. If you like Steampunk/Victoriana game miniatures (like me) you may well be tempted when these come out...

Along with my addiction to miniatures I've become addicted to Webcomics. This morning I've found another one that has not only a good story line but very good artwork:- http://monsieur-charlatan.com/comic/ Written and drawn by Angeliki Salamaliki. Thought I'd share and I hope you enjoy.

This is just a reminder to everyone to make sure your browsing sessions and internet devices are all protected. My best mate just got seriously hammered with Spyware and Malware, not to mention the unexpected (and unwanted) Porn images on his laptop. His missus wasn't impressed by that, or his...

OK. I went to see this yesterday. Got to admit I was impressed with this, better than the previous "reboot". Anybody else's opinions? Good? Bad? Couldn't give a Rat's Ass?

OK I'd like to point out another somewhat 'underrated' painter who really doesn't get picked up on as much as I think she could. Asha Or as some of us know her in real life "Marta". She's picked up a few awards here and their including a Gold at Euro-Militaire, which is no mean feat. So drop...

Damn! Damn! Damn! Really gutted to have missed out on the Kickstarter for these girls as there are some nice and appealling sculpts done by Patrick Keith in their catalogue. http://www.bombshellminis.com/ See his gallery under SculptDude...

My sympathies go out to all injured and the relatives of those who were killed.

A few years ago I started pointing out galleries of peoples painting because I thought they deserved better recognition. I've recently seen a couple of really nice submissions which I think need a flagging to a wider audience. http://www.coolminiornot.com/browse/browseid/5025880 DEMOH's...

Ok I'm going to ask what is probably very strange question, but has anyone ever put in a bid on an item on eBay out of pity for the seller? Just done that recently on a Rackham figure that was being grossly underpriced in an attempt to boost the sale up. I ended up winning it for what amounts...

As I've stated in the past I listen to a lot of audiobooks when I'm painting. Perusing Audible this morning I find that there's a lot of the D&D fiction books been narrated, including the some of the Drizzt ones. http://www.audible.co.uk/mt/dungeons_and_dragons Thought I'd share.

Happy St Paddy's, Now I have an official reason to have an Irish Whiskey tonight! (I've a good reason in any case, nose is doing a bloody good impression of a tap..Damn Colds!)

Welcome to the Next Generation of Blisters being offered for first refusal to Coolminiornot members. I’m rationalising, or downsizing take your pick, the amount of items, mostly GW, I have which will not see a lick of paint this century. All the listed figures are Metal NOT Finecast...
