I reached out to The White House and asked about its use of AI-generated Halo imagery. White House Deputy Press Secretary Kush Desai just responded to me, and it's insane.

Got my phone stolen on the weekend and my ancient stand-in phone can't do much. Decided to reactivate Pinterest to have some content to scroll and was terrified by how much cyberpunk content was just bad AI slob. If this tip helps, that would be so awesome!

Does it keep you up because you are proud how amazing these are?

I'm starting to do some weird experiments with contrast paints and was looking for a place to mix and water down and... now I have the skull. I've never seen anyone else using this thing. But now I feel like another splinter of my soul is owned by GW.
#nerdlings #warhammerCommunity

The servo-skull shaped mixing palette from Games Workshop - unused and pristine, still.

"Quality from Nuln!"
My hobby board is resembling some foundry in the free imperial city right now. And suddenly I have the urge to play Warhammer: Mark of Chaos again. The German voices for this game were absolute peak German-Warhammer-stuff... atleast in my memory.
#nerdlings #warhammerCommunity

Picture of some assembled, but unpainted miniatures: three canon crew members in various poses, a canon on a base, and one unbased. In the back, the outer hull of a steam tank.

There were some track works today near my home in @frankfurt.de and the city workers had a truck with this artwork on. My exact train of thought was "Ha, what a nice ideoh no, this is AI slop."

Horrible. In a city full of creatives!

Picture of an orange truck on its side, a group of dwarven engineers work on some train tracks.
Looking closer, some heavy indications of AI are obvious: muddy details, crooked tools, piercings on nonsensical places, the tracks are not fitting in perspective, missing fingers, and more.

Half a year ago, I had a sudden VtM rush, played the Bloodlines game, bought the PnP rulebook, and absolute consumed it! I adore the world and ideas.

A well made series would be amazing. But for now, I have a critical eye on Bloodlines 2...

I got an old paint rack from my cousin who updated. It's still not enough for all, but atleast I'm past the times I had to store my paints in an old IKEA box. : ) Was never able to find what I looked for.
#warhammerCommunity #nerdlings

Photo of my paint rack. It's made of plywood and now completely full with Citadel paints. Various bits and miniatures are strewn before it, because I'm a messy bitch when it comes to my hobby space.

Holzritter @holzritter.bsky.social · 29d

I only wanted to pick up a paint from the store over the weekend, but suddenly I heard the voice of Magnus the Pious in my head. And as he whispered "Faith, steel, and gunpowder", I already carried the box to the cash register.

Brother asked if I could master a #PnP for him and friends who never played one. They don't know much about Warhammer, but I argue: not knowing much about #Warhammer is good, because your char probably also does not know about the world! Prepping an adventure now...
#nerdlings #warhammerCommunity

A photo of the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay rulebook from Cubicle7, front cover. It, uh, shows some skaven amd a rat oger being about to die at the hands of some brave adventurers.

Uuuh, nice! How did you create the thatched roof? :O

Holzritter @holzritter.bsky.social · Sep 26

Not strong in terrain building, but I want to try more of it. Comes along nice.
A small hut in the ground, with a stone cliff on one side!
Now just to add walls, paint, do the roof, and pour static grass over it. Ideally the roof will be removable for Mordheim games. #nerdlings #warhammercommunity

A terrain base, roughly 15x15cm. It's a depression in the ground, clad with tiny wooden planks. Around it, earthy ground is structured with a terrain paste. One side has a small stoney cliff. Everything is still unpainted. A removable, very early WiP hut roof is seen in one of the picture parts. It's the perfect size for a small Talabecland state trooper to stand in!

Holzritter @holzritter.bsky.social · Sep 24

I'm jumping between projects and timelines.
Working on a hut as #TheOldWorld terrain. This is the WiP underlaying construct. Thought about doing a roof of overlapping wooden planks, but now I'm also thinking about doing Stirland Mud and then gras as roof. DECISIONS!
#nerdlings #warhammercommunity

A rough roof understructure, very fragile. A lone state trooper from Warhammer The Old World (proud Talabecland!) stands in it for size comparison

The same structure, but given, well, more structure by adding wooden sheets to it all. We can't see the state trooper anymore. :<

"Never talk to me or my son ever again"
The updated terminators are such chunky lads and lasses! I was skeptical, but I'm warming up to the idea of b i g g e r terminators!
#nerdlings #warhammercommunity

Two miniatures next to each other: an old terminator, partly painted. Next to it, a new terminator, bigger, broader, aaand on a wrong base.

Why an excuse. Heck, if they made these in my ridic size I would wear them every day, even to office! Absolute fire.

Deathwing was my first army and till today I have so many half painted termis in a thousand different styles.
Newest, simple try on the helmet:
-Zandri Dust
-Agrax ES
-Ushabti Bone drybrushen
-Details

Question for my fellow Unforgiven: how do you paint Deathwing?
#nerdlings #warhammercommunity

Four pictures, close up of a space marine terminator helmet. The first is mono Zandri Dust, the second is washed in recesses with Agrax. The third got a drybrushing with Ushabti Bone. The last has the eye lenses painted.

Update: I thing it worked. Quite happy with the progress. Some more DAngel bits, then some greenstuff work, and then Belial will be ready to stand atop a big ass tyranid carcass.
#nerdlings #warhammercommunity

A headless terminator. He is originally the captain of the Leviathan box, but his sword has been turned upside down and his armor top is adorned with a Dark Angel icon.

Holzritter @holzritter.bsky.social · Sep 18

Working on transforming the Leviathan terminator captain into Belial for my DAngels.
Thinking about switching the hilt and blade with each other to create an arm option, where the blade point rests on the ground, similar to Asmodai... but I fear to ruin the blade. D:
#nerdlings #warhammercommunity

The sword arm of the termi captain from the Leviathan box. The lettering has been filled up with green stuff, to create a (hopefully) smooth blade.
