Closer to Battle Ready… I dropped and shattered a resin mini yesterday, so I ended up putting random extra details onto the #Warhammer40K SOT (edge highlights for the trim and Tamiya Light Gray Panel Line for weapons). Now to decide on basing, purple rocks or grey sludge and green crystals?

…for the wages of Chaos is TRIM…! I could see doing this scheme on regular #Warhammer40K Terminators where I don’t have to paint trim, but I do want a chance to play #ThousandSons this coming edition. Eventually.

They don’t look like they’re collected from the same dustbin… Changed up the execution of the left #Warhammer40K Scarab Occult Terminator for more negative space, kept the head and weapons black as well as the tabard. Maybe be pink eyes?

Concept for #Warhammer40K #ThousandSons. Mystical star field works, but errors in execution: Too much white ink splatter, too much colour (not enough negative space), and the eyes need more glow. Also, not sure what colour to paint the tabard. Scheme is easily replicated though!

Second half of a #Warhammer40K #Ultramarines Sternguard unit. Push-fit models definitely make subassembly easier by not pushing pegs all the way in. Also, @thearmypainter.bsky.social Stabilizer for Fanatic paints is a thing. Even with “watery” consistency, coverage was great.

Something something forest trees… #BattleTech #HEXTECH trees, terrain version 2.

I plan on painting a new #Warhammer40K Alpha Legion non-Chaos Marines army. First, figuring out a paint scheme. I prefer the colour in the turquoise rather than teal range, but I will probably mix the two. Testing continues until I figure out which units to use as proxy.

Taste the rainbow. An assortment of #BattleTech Mechs for an upcoming shoot. A bit more colourful than I usually paint because they need to be on camera.

Newest #Ultramarines join their brothers. I was rearranging furniture in my office this week and the army is still sitting on the table. This is all the (mostly) Battle Ready units, with more to join with the next edition box.

Finished a random assortment of #Warhammer40K Intercessors, just in time for the new edition and 20 more models (we are buying 2 boxes). I prefer un-textured bases so I can just glue material on instead of painting them.

Are dragons part of a complete breakfast @dndbeyond.com ?

Ran into a big Speedpaint problem through the airbrush and had to finish using paint and ink instead. Not exactly the colour I was aiming for and the metallic undercoat is gone. Not an auspicious start to my new #Warhammer40K #AlphaLegion.

Hammerhead for Thunderbutt. Another #BattleTech Mech for the upcoming show. It was competent but boring before, not sure the lightning really does the trick…

Painting a #BattleTech #Mech for a new @visionarypnd.bsky.social video...

#BattleReady but missing a model (missing head from yesterday). Been having problems with air particulates all over the models, might be time to change the furnace filter. I’ll need to find a #Warhammer40K Sergeant helmet to replace the one I dropped.

I needed to paint tonight… …I didn’t need to scrap off paint, drop the #Warhammer40K #SpaceMarine helmet, and lose it completely. Can you guess which one it was? Also tried to be fancy with contrast and the armour looks turquoise now instead of the standard blue of the rest of the army. Sigh…

For my son who wanted to be a #palaeontologist since he was 2 years old—yes he could pronounce and explain the word back then. Thank you Dr B. and Dr O. of @palaeogames.bsky.social! (Shipped practically overnight and overseas.)

I was discussing whether 10 #Warhammer40K #SpaceMarine Infiltrators are needed or if 5 models are sufficient. Save myself some building and painting faces… Some additional metals and details to be added, but basing them means they are #BattleReady now, just in case.

Play like a 6 year-old. Michael of #PlayOnTabletop has challenged my son to a game of #Wargammer40K Colosseum at Game Con Canada. Time to learn the game and get reps in. He has the “roll high all the time” part down pat…

I despise the wide angle macro lens on phones, especially newer iPhones. My 2007 point-and-click can do better. Regardless, practicing faces because they aren’t going away. #Warhammer40K #SpaceMarines models have too many un-helmeted heads.

Kitbashed #SpaceMarine Lieutenant with Combi-weapon. I was saying to a friend that I don’t have any #Ultramarines lieutenants for my army yet and I had this Reiver someone gave me—just needed some additional weaponry.

More from a 6 year-old. Airbrushing #Necron Warriors and putting @thearmypainter.bsky.social fluorescents. My wife let him have bubble tea late, so he didn’t go to bed. I told him he needs to base his minis if he was going to stay up.

Played two games of #PlayOnTabletop King of the Colosseum yesterday, my #Ultramarines Reclamation Force vs. #Necrons Awakened Dynasty. I really like the format and I feel it is a better alternative to Combat Patrol. Not saying that because I won both games…

Almost done my #Ultramarines King of the Colosseum army (with one proxy). These are three #Warhammer40K #SpaceMarines units that I have never even considered until recently.

Thursday. #PlayOnTabletop and @visionarypnd.bsky.social with #BattleTech Alpha Strike. All the hashtags. Follow www.youtube.com/playontabletop to be notified!

I have slept on #SpaceMarine Heavy Intercessors and Gravis Armour in general. Preparing these for a King of the Colosseum list with other models I’ve never considered or painted before. I guess these are actual #Ultramarines (though they could stand in for Havocs).

Paint like a 6 year-old. My son is preparing his #Warhammer40K King of the Colosseum list for #GameConCanada. He has decided on #Necrons because of Michael “Funny Guy” Buckthorp.

“I’m ready for my close-up…” Clan Wolf vs. Phoenix TakTical #BattleTech coming soon from #PlayOnTabletop, in association with @visionarypnd.bsky.social and Thunderhead Studio. This is PLAY ON ALPHA STRIKE!

Lieutenant with combi-weapon and combat blades. #WYSIWYG right? Someone gave me some #SpaceMarine Reivers that I never had a use for, time for a little kit bashing. Have to cut him off the base later, wrong size.

Sometimes they just need a change of environment. #AlphaLegion #Ultramarines on #HEXTECH Biomes terrain. Maybe the Rimewind set will get scaled up to 28mm…

All that glitters is not gold… it is copper in this case. Still using @thearmypainter.bsky.social magenta and purple for undercoat, but I had to fight with the Air paint. #Warhammer40K #SpaceMarine is not going into my Crusade list, but the model has been sitting around for too long.

1 hour Intercessor. I put a second squad of Legionaries into my #Warhammer40K Crusade list, so I needed another Sergeant to lead them. #Painting was quick, but I procrastinated for a while actually getting it to the paint desk. I need more #Ultramarine Intercessors to actually have a full unit.

Black armour still eludes me. I tried it out on a #Warhammer40K #SpaceMarine Librarian first (at least if it looked blue it wouldn’t matter). Second time I’ve painted this model and it just doesn’t come together…

Nope. #SpaceMarine faces, trying to practice. However, I don’t have a technique to follow, this is just random painting—and it is not turning out well. Time for more YouTube “tutorial” searching…

Friday nights are hobby hangout on the #PlayOnTabletop Discord. #Painting #Ultramarines bikes took about 4 hours, not including @thearmypainter.bsky.social Alien Purple rattle can instead of Magecast Magenta undercoat. (I prefer magenta, but rattle can speed.)

Spent more time painting #Warhammer40K #Ultramarine Terminators than I negotiated with myself. I wanted to spend a basic amount of time with line troops, saving details and effort for characters and centrepieces—it has been about 8 hours over 3 days. Hopefully the next four will be as consistent.

One of my favourite colours to use as a shadow base is @thearmypainter.bsky.social Magecast Magenta. (Magenta has this interesting property being able to be both cool and warm tones.) When are we getting this in a rattle can? #Warhammer40K #Ultramarines Terminator for example—Hydra Dominatus!

What looks like a centaur Knight is an Armiger Dunecrawler that is proxying for a Venomcrawler in my #Warhammer40K #Ultramarines (Alpha Legion) Crusade Force and is a testbed scheme for my #ThousandSons. …I just confused myself.

He’s targeting geese. I can see all my chunky highlighting on this “ #Ultramarine “ Intercessor Sergeant under the macro lens—oof. I just wanted paint something on the gauntlet screen.
