I've been gone for some time, largely busy with work. But I'm taking some time in the holidays to work on some of the model backlog. It's very therapeutic. Here's the work on my imperial vehicle garage from this morning. #starwarslegion #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Hobby work: Warhammer 40k - Deathwatch Chaplain FINALLY got to one of the models in my shame-pile for 40k - my old Dark Vengeance Chaplain, who I'd stripped the paint from, and put on a 40mm with a tactical rock cause he's a firstborn short king. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings #miniaturepainting

Hobby work: Star wars legion - Black Sun Vigo Continuing doing up my pirates to look like a weird bunch of ragtag space randoms. #starwarslegion #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Hobby work: Warmachine, Kryssa Getting my ravens of war up to speed, I decided to paint Kryssa up with the quick molten armour style I've grown fond of. #warmachine ##miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Hobby work: warmachine, Blockader I was extremely lucky to have a person in my local community offer to sell this one to me as I couldn't find it anywhere else! I kept most of the original paint job, just covered the green with silver and yellow. #warmachine #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Hobby work: Warmachine, steelhead riflemen. Prepping these lads for a tournament next week, so decided to match their styles to my current black-silver, and another to the blue-copper minis that I luckily inherited. #warmachine #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Hobby work: Star wars legion: Agent Kallus I really like how this one turned out. GLORIOUS MUTTONCHOPS #miniaturepainting #starwarslegion #nerdlings

Hobby work: Mercenary Warjacks, Rocinante and Galleon A couple of second hand warjacks I have been refurbishing and painting in the black-silver style ready for a local tournament in a couple of weeks. #miniaturepainting #warmachine #nerdlings

Hobby work: Hordes, Legion of Everblight - Kallus and Incubi This was an extremely quick job that I need to go over again, especially because I accidentally chipped the paint on the incubi (and also Kallus' base size got updated since I got him years ago) #warmachine #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Hobby work: Gaston Crosse and Renegade Warjack So continuing the monocromatic 'black pennies' mercenary company, thought I would paint this warcaster and 'jack the same way I painted Magnus and Invictus. I might go back over them at some point. #miniaturepainting #warmachine #nerdlings

Hobby work: Star wars legion imperial troops Okay so this was just a continuance of my "make it clear they're the bad guys" approach. Honestly this paint quality is not my finest but the vibe is immaculate. #miniaturepainting #starwarslegion #nerdlings

Hobby work: Shadow collective The box was the same cost as getting the pirate squads on their own. I wanted to do a "rag tag bunch of randoms" inspired my skeleton crew and SWTOR. So here's maul inspired by a certain swtor cinematic. #miniaturepainting #starwarslegion #nerdlings

Hobby work: Chaos cultists As distinct from traitor guardsmen, I wanted something to be off about the cultists for my chaos necromancers, so I tried a blue wash and I think it went quite well. And they'd been in my shame pile for a year. #paintingwarhammer #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Hobby painting: Back into Warmachine and I painted up Ashlynn D'Elise and some kitbashed Stingers (who I can probably improve when I find suitable tails) #warmachine #nerdlings #miniaturepainting

Creative stuff from the last month, 7: Back to warhammer, the Necromancers of Vaul. Expanded my chaos roster with the plague marine kill team, painted up in icy death-knight-y colours. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings #killteam

Creative stuff from the last month, 6: Music composition! My wife wants to start vtubing so I put my old composer's hat on and started learning a new program for her! I'm very rusty but hoping to make some nice little tunes for her streams. #Music #composer #envtuber

Creative stuff from the last month, 5: Westerly Winds, a Lateral story. I've been working on a fantasy/romance setting, and this story to help flesh it out (and also help encourage my two lovely writer friends to get their works across the finish line). #creativewriting #fiction

Creative stuff from the last month, 4: Magnus the Unstoppable and Invictus I needed my legacy forces in warmachine to have some newer firepower. So enter OLD MAN MAGNUS, with his Mangler-Renegade fusion 'jack. #warmachinemk4 #nerdlings #ironkingdoms

Creative stuff from the last month, 3: Warmachine - Archangel Many years ago, between employment, I promised myself I'd buy one of these when I got a stable job. It took me may years to make good on that. #warmachine #hordes #nerdlings #legionofeverblight

Creative stuff from the last month, 2: Star wars legion troops. I needed to get to 600 points, and I found a store that stocked legion on my honeymoon, so I grabbed and painted up these. #starwarslegion #nerdlings

Creative stuff from the last month, 1: Star wars Legion - leader and operatives. I got into legion with a friend and couldn't resist having moff gideon for a leader. The inquisitors I decided to do in some alternative styles. #starwarslegion #nerdlings

I'm so excited that my wife is back to creating again! #artist #auvtuber

Taken seconds apart #ferret

@raccoonparade.bsky.social The day could not have been more perfect. I love you so much, my heart is so full. Marry. <3

MARRIED!!!! @zelfeldspar.bsky.social On 30/03/25 I got to marry the love of my life! It was a perfect day, surrounded by many of our beloved family and friends!! We're so grateful for everything and everyone.. this day was truly a dream come true. 🤍

I have been lax in posting because I was trying to cut down on doomscrolling. But I was improving my mental health with some painting projects recently!

yesterday eye strain hours. thumb for scale. still a WIP! ✨

Hey bluesky. Been a bit. Wedding prep has been keeping me busy! Nearly done with the pile of shame... or at least the one in my paints box. And once that's done there's about 5 other places I'm hiding other shame-piles. Shh. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

Design concept sketch yippieee -`♡´- #vsky #envtuber #digitalart

Got a big haul of random broken and discontinued warhammer minis from Cancon, as well as some warmachine mercenaries! Looking forward to chopping all of the warhammer up and doing some cool conversions on them!

Dude if you get art for free from an artist friend, that shit is a gem. Like, treasure it, because that time and effort went 100% into making you happy. Don't take it for granted, man. And please, for the love of god, don't like... abuse that relationship.

Finished some heavy reinforcements for my chaos necromancers today. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

One of the first buildings I made for #mordheim #warhammer #miniatures #minaturepainting #tabletopgaming #28mm

So I *was* taking a picture to show off a few minis I worked on this year for #2024hobbyroundup but my son he was very interested to know what was going on, so here is three extra pictures of him ❤️ #ferret #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

Trust is earned in drops and lost in buckets.

I walked into a gaming store and... decisions were made... #nerdlings #warhammercommunity

I know Mark Meer made it to the mass effect meetup, at least.

When certain sad people got upset that women existed in 40k, I went right out and bought a box of custodian guard to do some conversions on. I had a spare stormcast head, so I styled the leader after a paladin OC I once made. I'm very happy with how she turned out. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

Take a look at this BEAUTIFULLY COLORFUL gravis captain painted in some pride colours!!! (credit: jaden_the_swan_ on IG)

Refurbished two more of my old 25mm marines into Deathwatch veterans. These were my old Company Champion and Emperor's champion. It's good to see them back. The left one was the first one I built when I started collecting space marines. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

Aww, yeah you can have the couch, little guy...

Today's painting efforts. Had a power outage in the middle. Good thing I decided to do computer games first and painting second! Put a poll to my gaming group for what minis to paint. They helpfully split all their votes evenly. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

Made a salamander sergeant for a friend who loves them. Turned out okay but I used a water soluble ink for the green and that did not play nice with other liquid paints. Still, not bad for an experiment.

On recent subjects of echo chambers and the need for debate: What it does not mean is letting bad faith arguments grow unchecked in every space around you. You should, in some way observe viewpoints that are different from your own. But most of you will already do this somehow.

I've started doing up my assorted Chaos as like, Necromancer/Death knight inspired. This model is the test, because they're one of Mallex's monopose bodyguards, but I'm going to do all my chaos teams in this style I reckon. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

Boop! #warhammer40k

Always have been, always will🏳️‍⚧️

This is a bit of a sappy post, but the other miniature I painted today was an old one I got from right before I quit warhammer for a while. It was just collecting dust on a 25mm base. Refurbishing it and turning it into a deathwatch mini is oddly healing. It feels good to be back. #paintingwarhammer

Yknow immediately after I posted abt continuing the hobby streak my motivation tanked lmfao anyway heres a terminator I just finished up #Warhammer
