Guys, guys! I've officially made it. A bot instagram account stole my picture and called it a Pokemon card. I'm so happy.

Say it with me now! Big Man Blastoise! Big Man Blastoise! Big Man Blastoise!

Krootox Rider painted up with Pokemon #009's pallet. Weirdly enough the best place for a magnet was in the Kroot's waist to facilitate a weapon swap.

I'm trying to draw again using a random number generator and the corresponding Pokedex entry. Today was Gossifluer and Eldegloss. Sharpie for scale.

The Forge World ignites. Finally got my 3D printer back up and running. Prepping a lot of stuff for a swap meet at the end of the month.

If you ask me the regular Wulfen look a bit too ballerina like instead of Space Werewolves ripping themselves free of the cumbersome armour like I think they should. So I ripped apart a good handful of models, 40k and AoS, to make my own Wulfen pack marching through the broken ice.

Attended a paint night with my wife last night, a store called Mission: Fun and Games in St. Alberta, Alberta. It was a nice spot to spend a couple hours painting and chatting. Even got to walk away with my little Valkyrie and a set of Vallejo brushes.

I paint things outside of just Warhammer as well, these here are a pair of 3D Printed goblins for TTRPG's, a princess/sorceress and a druid.
It's nice to get out of your comfort zone now and again, show me models that took you out of your comfort zone.

I mostly just paint Warhammer stuff, but recently I've been looking into MG's "Kings of War". Model agnostic, so I've been looking for fun army themes.

I used to go hard in World of Warcraft, so I think I'm going to be theming armies around that. Just need my 3D printer back first.

Finally finished up some Grey Hunters for Redmaw's Great Company. I like their emblem better than Ragnar's. Here's to hoping that GW doesn't remove them from the next codex or give them a terrible revamp

The green skin will already contrast nicely against the orange/red of a lava base, so you don't really need another super eye catching colour.
I'd go with a rusted gun metal for the armour. That or lean into the meme and go full purple.

I know I've shared this a few times on different platforms, but this is one of the silliest designs I've done. It's a minor Darkest Dungeons reference, where the Crusader unit type can pull out a scroll. So I grabbed a Vanguard head and a SoB base to tell you "You're a Heretek"

I swear I didn't buy another kit to make these guys, I've still got two spare hogs to make riders for if I want to. Probably the most work I've ever put into kitbashing a unit together. I had to chop apart the legs to get the pose, pin the arms, some green stuff work, a lot of fun.

Come someone please point out which model designer made it so the best place to put the magnets are at the waist of this Kroot? I just wanna talk to them.

Woe be to the foes of these Hog Riders. I had so much fun tearing these models apart to make something new I'm almost tempted to get another kit and do it again.

Show me your recent kitbashes, or bases you're really proud of.

Hopefully this time next week I'll be coming home from a hobby swap meet with fewer models in my pile of shame, but knowing me I'll buy something silly with whatever funds I make there.

I love the more simple and understated nature of this Wolf Guard Battle Leader in Terminator Armour, regardless of his overly long model name. I also am still very happy with the Redmaw's Company transfers I made. Thinking about making an Ancient in Terminator Armour next.

Whats you next model?

Oh, hey, cool, I never win this kind of stuff. I'll have to shoot you a DM when I pick something. Thanks for the chance.

This one. This one hurts, folks. I bought my first models from this store almost eight years ago now. I've moved halfway across Canada from this place, but damn do I and I will continue to miss it.

Cypher is a good choice. Akimbo pistols, one bolt, one plasma. Rad lad.

Start with your best foot forward, right? Is that a pun? Maybe. For now please enjoy my #BloodRaven Apothecary Biologius. What's your favourite Warhammer character?
Doesn't have to be named, doesn't even need a model, I just want to hear about it.

I don't often find myself liking the models I finish. I see all the issues a lot of the time, but this here is a mini I am really proud of. A Wulfen Dreadnought standing in a shattered sea.

Tell me about/show me a mini you really love, be it for silly or serious reasons.
