DM with a DayJob

These ice devils came out good; I was especially pleased with the snow on the right. But I may need to go back and do a bit of kit bashing on the weapon so players can easily tell me which one they 🎯. Please modelers, give me at least 2 variations.

There may be older and fouler things than orcs in the deep places of the earth, but orcs still rock 🤘

This is pretty much what I, as a DM, cover in session 0 for an upcoming horror game.
Yes, I realized after release I misspelled meta gaming in a chapter header. Dyslexia & odd font is not a winning combination.

And now I have a new audio book!

Today I learned what a oilliphéist is!

There are older and fouler (not to mention with a brighter paint scheme) things than orcs in the deep places of the world.

I have mixed feelings on this one. I love how both the wings/tail turned out and the lion turned out. I’m not sure the highly saturated wings and tail work on the relatively realistically painted lion.

What does a swamp loving Druid need besides a shambling mound?

Two more shambling mounds!

Finally, the last of the 5 ancient chromatic dragons are painted! Just 4 more metallics. No, I have not been avoiding them. I resent that (accurate) accusations!

5 sessions, 38 rooms and 1659 rounds later, the players have reached the end of the dungeon.

What incident made you (character) think risking your life to slay monsters was the best of your available options?

Angel with eyes on wings. Loot studios model: Righteous Cherub

Taking a weekend off making videos about RPGs to paint minis for RPGs. 8 hours of painting, 20+ anime episodes and 4 cups of coffee tainted with paint = a monster with a 5 round life expectancy. Worth it.

Don't Traumatize Your Players! 😱 Feat. @dmwadayjob.bsky.social

Was playing a his as Jack. Killed the second victim and said “I have taken a second victim” and the power went out. Only time I’ve been thankful that DTE can’t keep the power on during a light breeze.

One little evil outburst and no one will let you their fantasy realm. Doesn't everyone have an inner demon? Mine quiets down with a liberal application of Chicken Wings or Pizza.

Brilliant. All the commentary, spot on!

Reason not to buy:where would you put it and wouldn’t it just gather dust?

Reason to buy: if it would put a smile on your face anytime time you looked at it.

My first time wiring & soldering LEDs into a model. Overall, it turned out OK. Would have been better if the middle LED didn't fall into the Balor's butt after I glued him together, oh well.

No, this week's video was not just an excuse to use photos from Stonehenge; that was a bonus.

To whomever in my family took the picture of me among the stones doing the "Praise the sun" pose, next time tell me my belly is showing BEFORE snapping the shot?

Happy birthday!

I'm trying to get better and faster at explaining Tabletop RPGs to people who are curious but intimidated by the systems.

I want to give just enough that they understand what they are, and why they're fun—without needing a half hour of their time.

If you ever hear snoring in one of my videos, this is what’s just out of shot. It’s hard to say no to a beagle that just wants to sit with you.

And they are very loud if they don’t get what they want.

These scaffolding models are by far the most useful bits of terrain I’ve ever printed.

I don’t know why Aberrations scream “synthwave” to me colors to me, but they do.

A commenter from in a previous video asked if I'd be willing to do a follow up. Yes, I am.

A few examples of how to throw a player a rope when they can't find their own way out without invalidating the choices that led them there.
