He has that sparkle in his eye.

He kinda cute?

Nailed it! Grimdark and realism

Modified Space Marine Captain from the Combat Patrol collection. I put a skull instead of the helmet so that it would look like the dead Terminator from the 3rd and 4th edition of Space Hulk. I built a throne with white cardboard and he's resting on it.

Looks like it's totally doable!

I created a mushroom to go along with my runestones and learned that long exposure photography is awesome! It is so cool to light up the shot from the glow paint alone.

Anomic aphasia my whole life, especially names. I have a whole pronoun set of dodges worked out. Then the pronoun thing happened.

Multiple small model bases of swarms of rats rushing over one another over cobblestones covered in debris.

More rats in process #cursedcity #ageofsigmar #gamesworkshop #miniatures

A """lazy""" paint job for the skin, drybrush only

Forgot #miniatures

Rats running on top of one another over dirty slimy cobblestones.

Some #cursedcity #ageofsigmar city rats. #gamesworkshop

Khemsa strike a fighting pose with his leather cape flapping in the wind. His tunic is bright yellow and he sports a green turban with a gold pin. He appears to be casting a spell of some form.

Found this Khemsa I did years ago. At the time it was the best I'd done, but now I see all kinds of tiny corrections I want to make but it still holds up. #miniatures #conan #monolith

Heavy weathering on the Warhammer 40k Leagues of Votann buggy door.

Weathering 101 - doors for 40k dwarfs buggy.
Glows and NMM are great, but I have way more fun painting with oils and chipping fluids!

one thing I respect about medieval beekeepers is their total commitment to looking like Doctor Who villains

Diorama in the making. I’ve always loved castles on top of rock so I decided to work on a scenery similar to Amon Sul or Weathertop in LOTR.

A passion flower in its curved purple beauty.

Purple flowers pushing for the sun.

I love May flowers. #flower #photography

Wake up utterly hung over. Try to remember what you did last night hoping it was something super fun. Realize you didn't drink at all and just had a hot dog for dinner and can't tolerate the nitrates anymore.

Hail OTIS!

It’s the 80th Anniversary of VE Day!

Here’s to beating back Fascism (now more than ever, please)!

An imposing model of an alien with claw reared back to strike. Broken greasy machine parts and wires lay upon the rusted grating he walks over.

Another view of a similar alien model. This one steps over rusted steel girders and chains that have been torn from their rightful place.

A close up of the alien claw. All mottled in cyanotic blues and alien greens.

Octen Glimscry from #warhammer #cursedcity - a really enjoyable paint.

I came home one day to discover my stoned girlfriend painting a small book shelf with a nail polish brush.

Turnips?

Humandoids who are geased do their bidding and interact with local banks. Then something happens which upsets the balance...

Idea for an element of a ttrpg game I have not gotten the chance to use. Dragon war devastated the surface. They all declare peace and territories and now fight is economic and they sit on their hoards and are essentially central banks. No direct dragon vs dragon is allowed. Humanoids are unaware.

I have no idea what this is but I like it.

Thank you.

You should read the Noon Universe series. The Soviets had their version of Star Trek where the prime directive is to spread communism across the universe. Early is optimistic that communism will solve all societies ills. Authors over time grow disillusioned and it becomes a critique 'Hard to be God'

I have been stalking this guy for years. He finally let me get a photo. #birds #birding

Thanks.
