Welcome to the B&C

I've painted last month's Mini of the Month,

I'd say get it painted (either yourself, or by commission) and put it on your display shelf. Maybe upgrade to a display/mini diorama base. As a second choice, if there's no sentimentality there, some extra cash is always nice.

LESS, maybe a bit, but still not uninspiring. Look at the new Asmodai vs. the two previous versions, and the newer Wolves models. Look at the new Nightbringer vs. the old version, I can't wait to see a new Deceiver. I can see where you're coming from for Codex Space Marines, but that's their thing. They're from a rigid military organisation. I also agree that there's some AMAZING things going in the AoS range (particularly the Underworld range). HOWEVER, it's much easier to to forward in technology (in so far as the hobby) than it is to model regression, meaning it's much harder to take 40k models and force them into a viable AoS army (Orks probably being the exception) than it is to up-tech an AoS faction into 40k.

Yeah, absolutely, priming in different parts/sub-assemblies in different colours is absolutely a viable option that will make your job as painter faster and easier.

Anvil Industry used to do fully posable bionic limbs for Marines in PA and TDA/Primaris scale. EDIT: They still do

Cypher has turned out amazing

September is open for those wishing to get a jump on their vows

Could be a supply issue, Australia had to nab additional subs from US stockpile as we bought ALL the subs they had in Oz.

I have both both 3rd party Dark Angel and HH 1st Legion dice, but my main gaming ones are my B&C dice

A spontaneous model for the Call to Arms,

I did actually use the tab....as a counterbalance under the front of the base

And here we go, 1x Drazhar, Master of Blades Complete

All solid advice from @Griefbringer, in this instance I get the vibe this is a solo operator just getting started. If they have contact info, maybe send a msg, see if you even get a response, take it from there.
