About Me

Started back with the hobby in 8th edition by picking Thousand Sons, and has since developed an unhealthy love of filigree. This has led to a small Slaves to Darkness force amassing , alongside his Sylvaneth which funnily enough are also the army he's painted most of.

Because everyone knows the best way to get someone to play a dadgame with you is to own two armies. Twitter: https://twitter.com/MikeJB_S Insta: https://www.instagram.com/mikejbs/
