The worst part of the whole AI thing is that it's so wasteful. They could invest billions of dollars in me, a stupid man. I'll flail around and do nothing useful, but every now and then I might do something mildly less destructive, and that will encourage them to invest more in me. Give me money.

Painted this jotnar seidr (a frost giant?) for a client. Pretty pleased with how the white skin came out and really happy with the glow effects on the spear. #Parabellumgames #Conquest #minipainting #Nords #Commission

Noticing the influx of AI slop accounts on Bluesky really makes me sad. AI slop is awful, but I **guess** it shows that "woke hug box" BlueSky has become so impossible to brush off that grifters and trying to make inroads here.

My discord account got hacked. I fixed it, but if you got some shitty crypto scam DM from me, delete it. Right now my account is restricted so I can't respond to any inquiries

Really dark happy with how this guy turned out. A Mountain Jotnar from Para Bellum Games' Conquest I painted for a commission. I didn't do many time- or labor-intensive techniques on him and I'm happy the colors and details really pop still. #ParaBellumGames #Nords #MountainJotnar #Conquest

Sculpture with rooster head, was found in a tomb at Gaochang, a Tang city on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, 7th-10th century, Tang Dynasty, China.

Not done yet, but they are coming together nicely. #Warhammer40k #Eldar #AeldariCorsairs #CombatPatrol #MiniaturePainting

I will always love the nostalgia of seeing *stunning* video game box art that's moody and evocative and then seeing the game and realizing it looks utterly silly and lacks the aesthetic the cover tries to present. #videogames #retro #GabrielKnight #Sanitarium

Another old piece. I remember having a lot of fun doing this one. I should really do more like these tbh.

If you paid taxes for 2025, you likely paid: $124 — school lunch & nutrition programs $49 — diplomacy to prevent wars $19 — USPS $19 — Federal Aviation Administration $18 — national parks and $4,049 — weapons and war. These priorities are hurting us all. We need change. #TaxDay

I've spent a lot of time doing commission work (which I'm eternally grateful for) but I began to think that I'm getting burnt out of miniature painting. Turns out I just missed really focusing on really doing high detail on individual models. Shit still slaps. #Warhammer40k #miniaturepainting

Yeah, I think I like the color scheme I chose. #aeldaricorsairs #Eldar #warhammer40k #40k #miniaturepainting

I've wanted to paint Aeldar for a while now and, thanks to motivation for a local competition, I finally have. After assembling the models, I'm mad that I waited so long. #Eldar #Warhammer40k #AeldariCorsairs

The Like a Dragon games have always had tenuous-at-best writing, but I do have to say that the soundtrack to every one of their games has some amazing tracks.

Orange base coat and averland sunset highlights on and they're starting to come together. GW really nails their killteam designs. These have been a joy to paint. A Vespid Killteam for a commission. #warhammer #miniaturepainting #killteam #40k

Before and after a wash. Next is to block in the other colors, then highlights! A Vespid killteam for a commission. #warhammer #miniaturepainting #killteam #40k

Better, more professional photos, of Inquisitor Ostromandeus and his retinue for the eBay sale. Wish me luck! #Warhammer40k #Inquisition #MiniaturePainting

In the span of a week and a half, I found out I need to take a certification before it cycles out, took an online course while maintaining a fulltime job, took a battery of practice tests, and passed it. I'm choosing to feel like hot shit about this.

GW was super kind and gave me an Inquisitor Ostromandeus model even though I haven't been subscribed to Warhammer+ since the end of year 1. So I painted him up and I'm probably going to put him up on eBay. #Warhammer40k #GamesWorkshop #miniaturepainting #inquisition

Anyone want to buy my Captain Lysander and Terminator Ancient w/storm shield and thunder hammer? I just bought custom Imperial Fist bits for the legs and I have a BURNING DESIRE to buy them again, kit them out with the custom bits, and repaint them. #Warhammer40k #ImperialFists #Miniaturepainting

I meant to take longer, but he was just so much fun to paint. The new Terminator Ancient a Phalanx Warder shield and a 3D printed thunder hammer so he'll fit in with Lysander and the eventual Assault Terminator squad they'll lead. #Warhammer40k #SpaceMarine #TerminatorAncient #MiniaturePainting

I'm learning very much about glazing and wet blending on this guy. #Warhammer40k #SpaceMarine #TerminatorAncient #MiniaturePainting

Having put about 7 hours into Look Outside, I have only this to say: It's criminally underappreciated. #lookoutside

I just played the #DeadAsDisco demo with the mod that replaces Charlie with #Majima from #Yakuza6 and, I gotta say, if they replaced the Yakuza combat system with this I'd probably run through a wall.

Pete Doctor made a whole-ass movie about how a child's mind regulates emotions with the KEY LESSON being that sometimes it's okay to be sad. Homophobic dingus.

#Conquest minis are cool. Some Nord minis I did for a client. #Parabellum #Conquest #Nord

OH MY GOD

Played #LookOutside for the first time tonight. I found the rat baby. Then I got too scared and turned it off. A+ game.

Pirate Yakuza done and dusted. With that, I'm finished with all of the mainline Yakuza games from 0 to the Kiwamis to 3-8. 11 games spanning 16 years of development. I'm so sad it's going out with such a pathetic whimper in Kiwami 3, which I will not be playing. #LikeADragon #Yakuza

I decided to heck with it, I'm sharing the page anyway! If my math is right it won't post until probably the end of the year at which point you'll be mystified by it all over again!

Hey! You can read about a neat personal project I'm working on over on my patreon! tinyurl.com/k698xxed

>Playing Pirate Yakuza and doing a substory >Take an attractive author on a date to an island >Get attacked by Pirate Thugs >Get ready to defend the author >She jumps in, wants to join in on the fight >Uh, okay.jpg >She pulls out a GODDAMN HUNTING RIFLE AND BLOWS EM AWAY #Yakuza #LikeaDragon

Ugh, at least I have the other 14 games to play until the heat death of the universe. I hate to put my hopes on Gang of Dragon, but I am looking forward to playing as Don Lee as he beats the stuffing out of fools.

It looks like the Kiwami games are done after 3. What a bad, stupid way to end the series. At least they gave us a dozen or so very good games to play and look back fondly on. #Yakuza #LikeaDragon #YakuzaKiwami

Happy BOUNTY update day! ⭐ #bountycomic

If you're gonna read any quote from an article on the game, let it be this one, because I think it sums up a lot of the feelings of fans pretty succintly

I have a youtube video analyzing the Arin Hanson/Jarvis Johnson Creator Clash fight with more views than that.

Post your favourite "Lord of the Rings" character. Wrong answers only.

Watching Arin finally do the Pokémon Nuzlocke he's been teasing for almost a decade and immediately lose the first tutorial battle is a very Arin thing to do. #Pokemon #GameGrumps #Nuzlocke

#Mortarion is one of my favorite sculps in Warhammer and I really love the job I did on this model. I need to continue touching him up and making him even more saturated until he's hard to look at. Then watch him get erased turn 1. #Warhammer40k #DeathGuard #Primarch #Miniaturepainting

I recently found a boatload of .stls for #FearandHunger characters and monsters and, once I have the money to purchase and download them, I'm seriously considering painting them all up as a way to revive my Twitch streams. Worth the time? #Miniaturepainting

I messed up on the model placement because I didn't dry fit, so the black wolf is slightly off-base, but I love how the face and armor turned out on Logan Grimnar. This was another project for a friend. #Warhammer40k #LoganGrimnar #SpaceWolves #Miniaturepainting #Astartes #SpaceMarines
