well as i drill a drill bite into my finger kinda deep ..I was wounding what are some of the things that happen to you while doing this hobby..

If you mean what injuries have I sutained whilst doing this hobby, I have 2 or 3 models that still have my skin superglued to them. I'm pretty good at avoiding injury whilst hobbying

Blisters.

Well... I slashed my thumb open with a Stanley knife while building a plastic Triceratops as a kid, which was kind of a serious injury, but not Warhammer related.  Warhammer wounds:

* While trying to cut apart a dead pewter horse for my WW1 IG models, the cutter wheel on my dremel disintegrated - a fragment of the wheel took a 3mm square chunk of the flesh from my thumb knuckle.

* While drilling holes in a metal model with a pin-vise, I pressed too hard and the drill bit broke and was driven through the cuticle of the thumb on the hand holding the model. For many minutes I wondered if a fragment of the drill bit was wedged under the nail, but after reassembling the found bits of the drill it was complete.

Nothing really serious, but when it happens your mind spins in panic.

wow i must be a clutzs. i cut my self with a hobby  knife too . while hacking figures apart

Numerous wounds to the hands especially more poor left hand which takes most of the brunt of my errant x-acto knife cuts.

For models stabbing me, I have collected the spikiest Chaos army ever and play against various other spiky armies (of whom I often pass casualties across the table to their owners). Lots of f'ing and blinding, he he he.

Heh, been there with similar models, lots of spearelves in my High Elf army and all.

Wow never gave it much thought about what hand . me being left hannded it my poor right hand that take the blunt.

lol now that funny Zorn!!!

It was the rarely seen assemble the multi-part chaos warriors with your big toe method. Very difficult, I've only seen a fe people pull it off!

glued entire hand to the old giant

speedygogo, you gave me a slight worry until you explained why there...

wow! guys i never had my figures attack me..

I stabbed some clippers into my thumb a couple of days ago. They were blunt, so I'll have a nice thumb scar now, he he he.

I do my best I try to be a grizzled veteran, but I like having both eyes, so an eyepatch wouldn;t be as useful as a mildly sore thumb

Grizzle vet ????? is this a new cult

We could make it one Next Kera-isnpired competition: make a model of a veteran hobbyist, scars and all

Chicks dig scars.

Unlucky, Godbob. The Cursed Thread strikes again (I almost typed the Threaded Curse, he he he. The Dreaded Threaded Curse! MWAHAHAHAHA!)! Willmark, too true. Explains Lórien at any rate
