currently painted is a terminator squad (in back) equipped with assault cannon. left to paint is the sergents helmet equipped with a bolter and power sword.
in front is a devestator squad which consists of regular space marines with heavy weapons. currently need to paint 3 out of 4 more arms with lascannons for the for devestator squad along with backpacks. and for the sergent (red helm in middle need to paint arm with bolter arm with chainsword and backpack.
most recent purchase thats unassembled or painted is the land speeder. this will take me at least a week or two of painting to complete.
full army painted in traditional ultramarines chapter colors.

so these figures dont look like the type that you generally cum on. can u explain the importance of them without this vital aspect?

only the most elite cum on these figures. casuals cant hang.
theyre geared towards young adults that enjoy building and painting models as well as playing strategy war tabletop games. kind of how the military schools reenact battles except this is done for fun. a turn based dice rolling game of strategy and chance.
for someone that enjoys building and painting models its a great relaxing way to pass time as i can easily spend 6 hours in a day working on my models.
and after collecting enough, reading the rules and constructing an army you can go to the local games workshop and play against others.
my army is one of about ten or so races all unique with different skills, weapons and armor stats geared towards different types of gameplay.the space marines (my army) is a solid all around type who is good at everything for every type of situation but excels at nothing in particular unlike other races. the diversity of this army as well as it being the favorite child of gamesworkshop along with their appearance has me drawn towards them. because they are the favorite they are always updated the most, come out with the most new models and are always in whats considered the top best races each time a new update to the rules is released.

I just looked this shit up on amazon why the fuck is it so expensive like wtf it isn't even put together it's just molded plastic and nothing else
maybe they include little paint wells which is like penny paint from china
a full squad kit should be $5 tops plus shipping, not $40

Its an expensive hobby because they are collectible figures and highly detailed ones. maybe it doesn't translate as well in the picture, but look around. Those figures are really small, yet they have a lot of detail.
its not a kids toy, its for adults thus it is more expensive.
that being said, there are cheap ones.

yes theyre expensive. as are all adult hobbies. and comparing them to drugs or telling me id be better of buying heroin is the dumbest thing ever for so many obvious reasons.
but the important thing for me is that its something i enjoy doing it isnt destructive to my life it doesnt hurt my wallet spending ~$50-$80 a month and keeps me busy during my free time.
its not a hobby for everyone.

huge kudos for being able to pain them so well too.
I buy prepainted figures, I always mess up the painting. I tried a couple of times ... just made a mess.
