Also, Early Xmas/Late Birthday presents from Mumsquig. Finally my Spaceship MTG deck will have proper themed protectors & storage! Hopefully get a game or two in w/ @hobbytan.bsky.social in the new year. S'been a day for early gifts it seems!

Last minute purchase, New Year's is SAVED!

With the holidays upon us, we had to share these festive New Antioch figurines, painted by Loïc Muzy! The red and white colour scheme is very striking, and the wintery backdrop of snow-choked trenches make it look even better. All our thanks to Loïc for letting us share his work! #trenchcrusade

Had to go outside today. Had to get sundries in for the Xmas shutdown. I now wish to crawl into a dark hole, curl into a ball and sleep until after new year. To all folks working service/support/etc, you have my condolences, cus' I don't know how you deal with the holiday period.

Hey artists!! Post some art you made from before Bluesky!!

Today's "Working on 2nd Ed stuff" tunes are brought to you by:

So as I'm healing, I'm getting the creative spark back - here's a shot from after the battle, with some wonderful EVA suits by Robert Rose! This is totally WIP, low-sample, and missing SFX. I'm gonna add workbees and repaired panels!

It should not be this hard to buy a “not-scuffed” set of Star Wars Blu-Ray’s. I just wanna watch Star Wars. I don’t want to have to spend hours doing research, or figuring out what the “despecialised” edition is, to get a copy where the grading, deleted scenes, etc have not been futzed with.

Scrungaloids is coming out in 12 days, and the STLs will come with a version 1 of the skirmish game of the same name Lexie and I wrote this year. I'm incredibly proud of it mechanically and I want to talk about why.

wow, it's Shonisaurus, the giant Triassic ichthyosaur!

No ChatGPT, thank u very much. I only seek counselling from the Farseer.

Advanced Kushan space tech vs alt-1930s propeller planes maintained by scrappy Air Pirates. Sounds like pretty bad odds, for the Kushans. #crimsonskies #homeworld #blender #b3d

Star Wars needs more idiot heroes. Jedi tend to be written too stoic and serious. No need to go full TPM Jar Jar Binks. Heart of gold, luck, and a lack of common sense that continually induces stunned disbelief in straight-man villains and heroes alike.

My partner and I have a tradition that until we see 4 cars decked out in ridiculously over the top Christmas lights, which we have named the Four Horsemen of Christmas, it's not really the holidays. We officially just sighted the fourth Horseman.

So ahhh... discovering this 'Totally not Bale Eye' mini from Artel W, is not good for my wallet. Considering I'm seriously debating Picking up some Steel Legion proxies & building up a small 3rd War for Armageddon themed force for some #40k2ed shenanigans I might try to get off the ground next year.

Spent a little time today refining my TAS shaders. I'm pretty happy with how things are looking right now! Used some compositor nodes as well to add some post-processing. These are all 'in-camera' renders straight out of #Blender3D

🌊🔥✨

Actually work on the #40k2eXR stuff I /need/ to get done to start making progress towards a completed ruleset/codex, or get lost on a 3+hr tangent down a rabbit hole, cus' the original forge world model was pretty fuckin' dope? HHHRRRMMM. #Warhammer40k2ndEd #warhammer #40k2e #40k

I flip-explode 100 rocks in a tomb, check out what i found-found🐛

FLYING MACHINES well. mostly flying in SPACE #DiceyJuneArt

You know your something of a "Hobby Horder", when you pick up a random box laying around the place, just something you saw outta the corner of your eye when passing, curious as to what's inside & then say something like: "Ranger of the North... I a /full/ set of own Rangers of the North?"

1/1000ラー・カイラム とりあえずここまで出来ました。 秋からこっち、異形の大御神の騒動や、ピブリダーのより航空機に近い表現に時間を取られ、もう一つのガンダム艦艇ヨーツンヘイムが全然進んでない。 ラー・カイラムは何としても年内に出力、完成させる。 なお、就役先より「気密ハッチは閉じておくこと」と厳命されているので、今回格納庫内部の再現はしていない。 引き続き逆シャア艦艇建造が続くので、搭載MSやそれに伴う格納庫内部の製作は来年以降になる。

Now Watching: 1992's OVA Series - Giant Robo: The Day the Earth Stood Still Long overdue in my mecha backlog.

A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage. Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word. A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

Here's the latest mini off of my workbench. He's a Yáopú Pangguling EVO REM. He's a hacker boi, and reminds me of those little dancing spiders. #InvincibleArmy #Yujing #Infinitythegane #wargame #wargaming

S'been a minute. but'm back on my #warhammer #40k second ed bullshit again. 'Bout Time Guard players actually got field artillery in #40k2e. Ya'know, the thing that THEMATICALLY fits their army. Also #40k2eXR has grown to abt 100 pages. Thinking I might need to just Fork it from #Warhammer40k2ndEd

Asari scout ship (commission)

Come 2026 I will be adjusting my pricing again so if folks are looking for a commission at these current rates, this is the last month!

Some more landscape practice with a mech.

Curse whatever entity that has decided that today, I will awake, feeling like so much over warmed trash.

This is what it's like in our house anytime a balance dataslate looms

Got a new Audio setup (XLR baby!), and Im testing it with a segment about #Battletech History from the #Mechwarrior 2 Strategies & Secrets Guide by Bernie Yee It's going to take a bit before I can get used this new setup & and it's quirks, but I'm loving tf out of it's results.

A quick post for anyone who just bought a 3D printer in the Black Friday sales. I design nostalgic prints for wargaming that are easy to print on an FDM printer with no supports so there is no hassle removing them. Links to my stores below. #3Dprinting #Oldhammer #Nerdlings #SelfPromotionSaturday

Made a series of squad insignias back when I was working on Solstice Rain. Many Union squads are named after alcoholic drinks. This Sagarmatha is from Squad Highball, a ThirdComm unit formed from the remnants of Squad Whisky, a SecComm era unit that was almost completely destroyed in the civil war.

More Steel Legion for my current fixation army! #warhammer #imperialguard #astramilitarum #tank #modelpainting #scifi #fantasy

Welcome to the STEINER SUPPORT LANCE! Very excited to announce today that through next month, all streams will be in support of the #Battletech community's @bishopsteiner.bsky.social . I will be painting and running the #AlphaStrike #Aces box set and showing off the game and campaign, LIVE!

Happy Thanksgiving to those down in southern North America. When you get exhausted of watching football and eating, then how about learning a bit of what makes the Northern Hemisphere of Terra Nova in #heavygear who and what they are. #heavygear3 #scifi #lore youtu.be/5HIrcGFNuOM

4th editiin saw some new regiments added to their roster In 2006, we were introduced to the Vostroyan Firstborn. Famous for their epic city fights during the Medusa V campaign. The last metal model line released and one of the most creative. #guardvember #nerdlings #oldhammer #warhammercommunity

A wargamers worst nightmare

Question for folks who like my work and are thinking of commissioning me: Would having this style of work be of interest to folks, not priced as high as my usual work since it's rather quick?

This hobby isn't just about building and painting, there is a massive creative aspect which I myself sometimes forget about. Sometimes you've just got to sit down and let your mind wonder, write, draw, heck craft something related to what makes you happy. #warhammercommunity #hobbyhealth
