A Curious Lack of Space Marines

While I was looking through my miniature collection recently I realised that I have a decent number of space marines that were painted a few years ago and in serious danger of never seeing the light of day.

Space marines are perhaps the most iconic part of warhammer 40k, much to the chagrin of non space marine players. I have no desire to play 40k as it is simply too expensive and requires more space than I have available (both as a play area and for miniature storage). Despite my lack of interest in playing 40k, I’ll be holding on to these miniatures as they are some of my original models that I had before taking a break from miniature painting, as well as the fact that when it comes to wargaming you can never go wrong with a model that fits the genre of “space man with a gun”.
