John Hammond spared so many expenses.

@badsquiddogames.bsky.social addressing my perennial complaint that not enough historical figure lines have people shitting themselves to death with dysentery. 10/10, no notes, perfect 0200 Hours minis.

I do adore @badsquiddogames.bsky.social - some of the best (and most necessary) minis around.

I just sent out some weird stuff in the newsletter. Happy Friday!

Nice. Oh wait I did it

Found this old one I painted a few years ago. I made some nice prints of this one back in the day. #art

This thief (@badsquiddogames.bsky.social) is ready to join my Hero's crew. Someone has to grab the loot while the muscle is tackling the monster. #WarriorsOfAthena

Quick easy build using off cuts of MDF, to be used as sci-fi standing stones. I finally got to use the Krautcover - Eternal Fields Base Cover I got from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social last year!

Hyped to see this lad in a nice home environment this week! Met him before *flex* but that was back at the kennels. And he was sproingy then. Rainbowwwwwww 😍

Annie shuffles across the wasteland, peeg on shoulder. Is there any memory left in this undead monstrosity? It appears to be heading for the garden centre, so perhaps. [mini sculpted by Alan Marsh, painted by John Morris, backdrop by Handiwork Games, photo by Annie Norman]

My niece came to my house today and painted her first ever miniature. I don't think I have ever seen anyone else being as naturally precise and talented on their first go. She chose a lovely mini from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social for her first one.

We've been shifting a lot of Amazons lately! This is my favourite one, sculpted by Shane Hoyle and painted by Paul Cubbin. She's from the Amazon Fighters pack. Terrain by Mammoth Miniatures, backdrop by Handiwork Games. Photo by Annie Norman

My books haven't arrived yet, so I don't know how many miniatures I need, but here is the start of my ##WarriorsofAthena crew. Miniatures from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social Bronze Age Miniatures who are available from @fenrisgames.com and Giants In Miniature who are Wargames Illustrated related.

hey Bluesky, say hi to Rainbow he's a good boy 🌈 ❤️

I woke up thinking of all the times older/established men in the industry have said or done problematic things, & I've been reassured they didn't mean it like that or it's been misinterpreted. "It's just how they are, Annie, you're overreacting". -

While we sell the @handiworkgames.bsky.social backdropp books, you can only get the commercial licenses directly from the man himself. They're super easy, last a lifetime and don't cost much at all. All the information on how to get one and use one is here: handiwork.games/licensing-fo...

Back to Brussels Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History, one of my new favourite places for an inspirational wander. Here is our Lyudmila Pavlichenko mini meeting another Soviet sniper. The sniper isn't anyone in particular but I decided she looks a bit like Roza Shanina.

It would appear the company that supplies 90% of the blister packaging in the UK wargames industry went into administration (while still owing us of course)

Mordhiem games this eve. Ghouls by @badsquiddogames.bsky.social . A loss against orcs, a win against empire, and an exploding rat ogre, meaning the game ended before it started. #mordhiem #warhammer #oldhammer #oldworld #armypainter #nerdling

Back in the UK! With some pretty wild plans from the trip, actually.

I'm excited to have received the Women of WW2 Resistance Kickstarter I backed from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social ❤️...Someday soon I'll have time to paint them while reading up on the history of each person represented.

I got the star set from North Star and ordered some Amazonians from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social which my daughter pic is ed. Looking forward to epic adventures this year!

A couple family photos of the #gaslands fleet so far, including using one of the background books I got through @badsquiddogames.bsky.social

Two rival adventurers from Bad Squiddo, both giving kinda Spartan vibes. Lover how the Balthasar agold and yellow worked together and the red and white with the pale gold... really chuffed (4/5)

With days to go before #warriorsofathena releases, I made a push to finish the two main characters for my party, Xena and Gabrielle, and a bunch of NPCs for them to fight with and against! Minis from Crooked Dice, Lucid Eye, @badsquiddogames.bsky.social and @footsoreminiatures.bsky.social (1/5)

It’s a @badsquiddogames.bsky.social day!

This must be hard to believe but sometimes I get a bit down. I was looking at what we've released so far this year & it cheered me up. We've released: the Pro Series Backdrop Book 1, the BEOWULF Age of Poems book, & Hot War in PDF. Not bad. In the sage words of Five: "Get on up when you're down"

Trench Crusade Backdrop Books are almost done! Late pledges are still open for a little while longer! www.kickstarter.com/projects/han... #trenchcrusade

Really been struggling with mojo lately, so it feels good to get these off the painting table. They’ve taken over a month. A mixture of @fenrisgames.com , @badsquiddogames.bsky.social figures and Bellerophon is from Lucid Eye

One of my sons just love Capybaras. Thanks to @badsquiddogames.bsky.social I can now incorporate capybaras into their dnd-sessions!

I'm currently away in Belgium, with the Belgians. It's rather nice. It's super nice to relax.

Based the Bad Squiddo witches and Vae Victis characters

Yesss I am heading back to the mainland for a week. More WW2 research 💪 If you want anything before I go, get it in before Wednesday lunchtime! Hype Hype Hype. Side note I have been attempting to learn Dutch and I can confirm I do indeed suck at it.

My "don't buy more minis" thing isn't going great, BUT at least this is from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social so it's #indie26 compliant?

Our social media posts (and everything) are 100% human. They're still 100% Annie Human, yes meeeee who runs the whole thing. I freaking love what we make, and telling you all about it. Why would I get a robot to do that, the robot doesn't give a damn.

🪷NEW PLANTS IN STOCK🪷 A restock from Gamer's Grass with the brand new laser cut plants and weeny weeny 1mm tufts! Also startes boxes with glue and tweezers! badsquiddogames.com/shop#!/Gamer...

I reckon this mini is about 40% blood! Hel, Goddess of the Underworld by @badsquiddogames.bsky.social, backdrop by @handiworkgames.bsky.social

The latest addition to my Gangs of Rome collection is Zenobia from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social She’ll probably appear in my campaign as some kind of priestess.

My cat Avery has just received her delivery of colourful packing peanuts from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social Plus, as an added bonus I got a bunch of cool things (inc. another Turkey Man!) and a restock of tufts.

Turkey Man made a whole series on his @turkeymanofficial account on instagram but I am not sharing them here as they're too rude

💗 I made some Valentines cards you can forward on... 💗 [all pics taken by Annie Norman, backdrops by Jon Hodgson/Handiwork Games, minis by Bad Squiddo, terrain by Fenris, Renedra, Last Valley and Berlintuesday]

You might be wondering, Lord Zombie what happened to that mini you were painting at that Dorcy Bono class? First I would say good on you for remembering and then I would say it is right here. Death, from Bad Squiddo. @badsquiddogames.bsky.social @darcybonocreations.bsky.social #nerdling #reaper

A couple of days ago, it was Annie's birthday. I could give her a gift, but I could paint the ones I got from her. Here is a little cursed tree from my last order. @badsquiddogames.bsky.social #nerdling #reststop #freebie
