Usually just delay the thought of winter approaching until it’s -3c and already too late, so this is a change for me, now we see how long it last 😅

Not the most exciting of posts today but I got a whole load of stuff primed in preparation for the coming weeks and months of British winter 🙃

October is half done already, how're we getting on?

Mini of the month competition October - Terrain-ing day

Your mission this month involves no minis at all. Instead you are to create a terrain piece from scratch. Old school style. So cardboard, foam, plastic bottles etc.

Rules on skeet 2 (please read them)

I would recommend just checking no other software is open and trying to us the camera as an input, for example in my experience if discord is trying to using the camera as an input the OBS won’t recognise it for some reason.

So yeh that piece vanished, however…. I did find a spare FEC shield in my bits box which fitted perfectly to cover up the missing loincloth and upper thigh 🤭

I’ve spent some time over the last few days with the @thearmypainter.bsky.social speed paint pens starter set.

I have thoughts.

Firstly I’ve tried a few of the other paint markers on the market and always found them wanting.

The main reason for this is application.

Another day - another Necron.

“What did you do? That’s your question?
It was basically a moving building and in its centre there was a wormhole spilling out masses of Warriors. On top was a glowing ball that was shooting light and a Death Ray on every corner.
I tell you what we did - we were running like hell!”

It’s Friday, the sunrise is lovely and I’ve been awake for hours.

This week the theme is…red.

So let’s see the red stuff.

As usual I’ll repost the lot and if you like something, share it!
