I wrote a book this year. 2026 will determine if anyone notices.

Wooo

I want a cooperative miniatures wargame. There are skirmish and dungeon crawler-type games, but I want either a whole army’s worth of cooperating units vs a game-controlled army, or multiple heroes vs big complex bad guys like boss fights in an MMO.

I really want to write some more LitRPG.

Very kind words and a fun reminder of when I got to give Lysander a really miserable time.

Looking for recommendations on co-op miniatures games. Does Five Parsecs From Home work with multiple players, for instance? Especially games with lots of story content or potential.

A Chaos Dwarf as a treat. Helsmiths of Hashut War Despot.

www.portsmouth.co.uk/arts-and-cul... It’s opening night of Hangmen, the play I’m in. Here’s an article on it featuring a delightful picture of me!

We are more alike than we are different, for all our differences. And we’re all just trying to make it through the night.

Trust me, after reading this you WILL want a ruggedised laptop

Fellow scribe Ms Cawkwell with a new space operatic adventure set in the universe of the iconically gargantuan board game. (Which I played once and though I didn’t win, I did take over Mecatol Rex which counts as an achievement unlocked)

A play I’m in! For those of you in the Havant/Portsmouth/Fareham sort of area who fancy some pitch black comedy, HumDrum’s version of Hangmen features me hanging at least one person.

This one's very difficult to take photos of, but here she is: A #warhammer40000 diorama with a wrecked Rogal Dorn being used as a trading post (and washing line) by a band of Ratling spivs.

Spider Tank! Another scale modern conversion, this time with a Gigeresque flair.

Boxed diorama, the idea being it’s a medal case with the medals displayed one one side and a representation of what the bearer did to win them on the other. #warhammer #miniaturepainting

Tiny boxed diorama, using a cheap jewellery box from a craft shop and a figure from TT Combat. I refer to it as ‘evil box’.

Unknown Ship, South Atlantic, Late 1943. One of the models I entered this year at the Miniature Painting Open and the Fen Model Show.

I bought a pack of miniature frogs from Bad Squiddo at Salute this year, which is exactly the kind of thing the miniature painting works needs more of.

This Char dude is a big deal, right? Anyway, here’s his Zaku from Gundam Assemble #gundam #gunpla #gubdamassemble

Anyone in the Havant area, my good friends in the HumDrum theatre company are performing this week, so if you have a free evening (or Saturday afternoon), go along and show them some love.

Still legit terrified of AI. At least with Skynet we’d know what we’re getting.

This Rogal Dorn has seen better days but it still won me a Bronze in the Standard Vehicle category at this year’s Miniature Painting Open. Very proud of the knackered old rustbucket.

These three dioramas won me a Silver in the Standard category at this year’s Miniature Painting Open! A personal best for me so I’d say it was a very successful outing.

Checking out the entries at the Miniature Painting Open in Bristol has imparted an understanding that I am in the Dunning-Krueger club.

Off to the Miniature Painting Open in Bristol over the weekend. Wish me luck, true believers. #miniaturepaintingopen

Who knew I’d written so many Space Wolf stories? www.blacklibrary.com/warhammer-40...

Emperor’s Children WiP: Lucius the Eternal aka 40k’s biggest jerk.

To honour @qosbaszler.bsky.social repping the Death Guard, #StrikeforceBaszler now has a Plague Marine in their number.

I’m at Salute! I’m the pudgy white guy with the nerdy t-shirt, you can’t miss me.

TARGET ACQUIRED

The Emperor is the Tyranid hive mind. He drew the hive fleets in from distant stars to scour clean the abomination of a galaxy his hubris created. (I don’t think this is true, but just imagine)

I may have impulse bought a stray Emperor’s Children army box.

I used to date a cricket umpire, but he wouldn’t respect my boundaries.

The Cathay range for Warhammer: The Old World might be the most beautiful set of models I’ve ever seen.

Stage 2, catching plane: Failed.

Journey to #adepticon stage one successfully completed: got on the train.

Prepping for Adepticon! By which I mean doing things I should have got ticked off weeks ago.

Succubus lady by Kimera, paint scheme inspired by Stephanie Vaquer aka La Primera, the Dark Angel, and NXT double champion #kimera #miniaturepainting #WWENXT

My greatest achievement! Bronze in the Warhammer 40,000 Vehicle & Monster category at Golden Demon Germany 2007.

Absolutely nobody asked for this. Me in a hat.

Might write a book.

Remove as many instances of the word ‘that’ as you can.

Quick & dirty Iron Sultanate Alchemist for a potential #TrenchCrusade warband.

Getting there with the Rogal Dorn diorama

Oh no she turned heel

The diorama project continues. These are Ratling pants.

Today’s Ratling is trying to get decent reception on the satellite TV.

Hello to all fleeing the TikTokapocalypse! If you like reading thrillers, poetry, horror, satire, or just weird things, feel free to check out this book I wrote!

I finished another Ratling! This one looks like Captain Price from Call of Duty.
