Day 31.

That's a full month of doing a little bit of hobby each day.

Today, I got all of the blue highlighted, the tabard (front + back) done, and glued the shoulder pad on.

I also got my order of the styrene sheets I use for my bases, so I'll sort his base out soon.

This week's #deskbot is a call back to the Diaclone toyline, DK-3 Breaker!

I bought this guy because I don't have Hoist or Trailbreaker in this mold.
And he was 8 bucks at a Ross.

Day 30.

I started on the 2nd Veteran today.
December 15, 2025 at 12:22 AM
Day 29!

I got the first Company Veteran finished, and I finished building the veteran armed with the Heavy Bolter.

I can't decide between these two.

Day 28.

4 weeks of doing a bit of hobby each day!

Today, I started building the last Veteran from the Company Heroes box.
I wanted to change him up a little bit, so I dug an old Marine Heroes blind box guy out and used his helmet.

Day 27!

Tonight, I finished up all the bits on the Veterans body and glued him together.
He just needs his decals and base rim next.
But that'll have to wait until the weekend.

Day 26 of doing a little hobby every day.

Tonight, I started picking out the details on the Veterans body.

I thought I'd mix it up and paint the laurels green instead of my usual gold, I like it.

Day 24.

Productive hobby session tonight!

I got all of the blue highlighted, and I fully painted the helmet!

This week's #deskbot is Transformers own Toxic Avenger, and a figure I'm still amazed got released,

Toxitron!

He's a legit favorite figure of mine, and I even brought in his trailer for a change!

They look good in the group, too!

He's magnificent.

Day 22.

I finished up my Company Champion.
I somehow managed to screw up the matt varnish on the Chapter decal, but this time, I was able to recover it.

Found Onyx Prime when we did a quick Target run.

Scrimm is enjoying the box.

Day 20.

A Frustrating day.
I had an idea for and just couldn't get it to work.
So then I had to repaint some areas.

And then when I did the decals, the matt varnish went cloudy on the shoulder pad for some reason, so I've had to go over the shoulder pad again.

But I did get him built at least.

Early morning reveals of Onslaught/Bruticus and Armada Sideways?!

Nice!

Bruticus looks a little off in his proportions, but it's Bruticus.
I don't care.

Sideways looks cool, his heads/Mini-Cons are included, which is cool, and they can combine too!

I'm glad they kept that gimmick.

Day 18.

Frustrating day.
One of the cats put some teeth marks in the sword I finished last night.

I cleaned and repaired it the best I could.

I also started on the details on the body.

I'm almost done with this guy.
December 3, 2025 at 12:58 AM
Thrust arrived, and that means I finally have all of the Coneheads!!
December 2, 2025 at 10:46 PM
Day 17 of my bit of hobby every day run.

Tonight, I finished the backpack and sword arms. That just leaves the Champions' body to do.

Though I might do some decal work on the backpack, I think that'd look nice.

With Stranger Things Season 5 dropping last week, I thought Code Red (bad name) would be a perfect pick for this week's #deskbot!
December 1, 2025 at 2:44 PM
Day 16.

I got the Company Champion built, primed, and got a good amount of painting done.
December 1, 2025 at 12:24 AM
Thought I'd share this as well.

The Blood Angel was painted back in 2017.

Same kit, same pose.
8 years later.
Main things I've noticed are my highlights are better, and I'm better at thinking my paints.

Day 15!

My Intercessor squad is all done.

I also realized that finishing these means I've painted 50 Intercessors over the years.
And that's but including any I've painted for other people/work.

Here's the finished Lego Game Boy set.

The only negative thing I can say is that I wish it had a second cartridge stand so I could display both cartridges at the same time.

I meant to post this yesterday, or the day before.

Such a good face sculpt!
