Blackie Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Forgot about that, collect space orks, chaos marines and imperial fists atm, but in the past have collected the following and sold them as high point armies. Fantasy. ork eldar dwarf chaos skeleton imperial Necromunda. All the races 40K. Ork chaos tau eldar ultra marines dark angles space wolves blood angels tyranids. Have spent too much on this hobby, but its worth it, may favourite thing was making fallen characters which have been covered in acid, and thats where the skeleton spares come in and a soldering iron lol. Also went into making dioramas with them. Lol, I used to collect lead figures when i was a kid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snooze Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Eeeeek - you've all been feeding the evil empire that is Games Workshop. They are an evil, evil company. I hope the advent of cheap 3d printers puts them out of business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Something that isn't as much an actual collection but could be deemed as such is guitar plectrums. I have/had millions of them, in all different textures, shapes, thicknesses and colours. I was going to "collect" guitars as my collection has included some ultra rare models of massive value but it was too expensive to keep them all. I've sold some that I kinda regret. Still have the 2 rarest though. Maybe one day I'll build it back up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraStar 3000 Posted September 28, 2010 Author Share Posted September 28, 2010 I like this thread. It's giving me clear indications of who to avoid in RL situations. in RL situations i avoid everyone. That said, yesterday I met BigNum and he turned out to be mighty fine young man. Would have liked him to stay longer but he wriggled loose and squeezed through the window bars. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I used to collect NES and SNES games/consoles, but sold a load of recently as I was playing most of the games on my Wii or emulator on PC so they were taking up space The only real thing I guess I collect is Green Day records/CDs, i.e. coloured vinyls, radio promos, foreign versions etc. Got just over 100 items all different. Would like to say I collect guitars too but that is a lot more expensive and takes up too much space, hence I've only got 6 at the moment!

marbleapple Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Thats part of the fun doing it yourself lol, will look forward to the pics fella I don't have time to do it myself and the painting (or playing with them) doesn't interest me. It's the collecting of them. A couple of basic models below: I also collect these thing: Matchbox toys from the 1960's. The Miura is valued at about £250, the E Type at £80. The Pontiac box is worth over £900 just for the box due to it's rareity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannhauser Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Books here. It's not so much that me and Mrs. T collect them, we just never get rid of any. There's about 1500 distributed around the house, and we're seriously running out of space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you base colouring then building up? I tend to layer up and then wash in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
