Battletech goes synthwave with this Vapor Eagle for my newest merc band, Malibu Overdrive. This was such a departure from my comfort zone but I'm so happy I tried it now that it's done.
I have made... a tiktok video. Featuring Brother Captain Big Boss!

I have been bit by a cosplay concept idea based entirely around only the words "Mister Repentia"
a red and black sword with an eagle on the handle
Alt: a red and black chainsword with a blood angels logo on it.

I prefer using physical terrain and backdrops books ( by @handiworkgames.bsky.social for example) because i think AI sucks. 🤨😉

I discovered today that I have been using my wet palette wrong for at least two years and it works *so much better* if you don't let the top of the palette paper get wet as well as the bottom. This may seem obvious in retrospect but at least it works much better now!

Back when I got into 40k, the plasma gun was considered ancient rare tech that punctured any armor that wasn't an invuln save and always blew up on a 1 and killed the user.

Nowadays plasma has morphed into something else and now we have disintigrators that do almost exactly what plasma used to do

Its not a Thousand Sons but after painting that much red basecoating it feels like it! Very much WIP.

While I'm soapboxing: I miss map campaigns. If there's no ongoing effect to the results of the game I'm playing, I'm not incentivized to care if my units live or die. If losing my expensive cool unit means I lose them from the campaign roster (or even a d6 chance of losing them) I play differently.

My possibly unpopular tabletop wargaming take is that re-rolls universally suck.

They ruin good narrative moments. They turn everything into an attempt to combo off into a situation where you can re-roll until you succeed at somrthing. And they fuck up the probability and make balancing fucky.

Gonna more or less make this my thread of postmortem thoughts as I go through The Horus Heresy books. I finished book one already, see the qrs :).

I think i was too harsh to False Gods along the way. I maintain it should have been 2 books not one, but it is much better by the end than I credited it

Horus on the last page of Chapter 17 of False Gods vs. Horus on the first page of Chapter 18.

I'd love to hear Werner Herzog say this deadpan to camera.

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.

Tried on some crazy sunglasses at the store for fun. Kelsey says the vibes are atrocious but I did also get a vote for "kind of pulling them off" so I'll take it. :P

For my lovely friend @baradoralred.bsky.social ! Space elf waifu supremacy!
Also, I could have given up on #warhammer due to the extreme hostility of the fandom towards LGBTQ people. But that is why I refuse to leave! We must never let the hateful win! We ALL deserve to express ourselves!

QRS with some pieces from 2025 you're really proud of!
