QuoteIt's a universe that's simultaneously nihilistic and joyous. It's incredibly British in that way."

I loved playing Warhammer 40K when I was younger. Unfortunately for me my parents clocked on how expensive it was and stopped buying me models and paint!

Nice; real supportive and encouraging parents there.

It is damn expensive.
And its not like its going to get a kid anything.

Though stupid guy for bitching. He should be happy his parents bought him stuff in the first place. Mine didn:t bar the odd christmas and birthday present.

Arts and crafts are good things to encourage in children and teenagers.  Better to have the kid painting silly death warriors then in the garage trying to huff the paint.

You can't do both at the same time ?   :hmm:

 If anything, I'd think painting 40k figures makes you more likely to sniff paint. I mean, it's right there.

Also, wood elves are delightful and fantasy is the superior setting.
