A set of four cake pops that read HAPPY VALENTINES DAY; The first has 
H, VA, and D; The second has A LEN A; the third has PP TIN Y; the last has Y ES <3.

A cartoon below shows a very sad hamster holding up the one that reads PP TINY

I have been laughing at this for a solid five minutes.

Going for a late war, end of the line defence of Okinawa look for the Imperial Japanese Army here. Two of the new plastics with one of the previous kit tucked in there - the proportions will work quite well on the table, nothing to worry about with them not fitting alongside one another!

The same scene but a wider shot so you can see the gameplay table around it.

Printed out a sign from an Arkham Knight screenshot for flair and playing around a bit with backgrounds and perspective inspired by the recent video from @sonicsledgehammer.bsky.social #BatmanMiniatureGame

Here is a better view of the industrial bits I got from @fenrisgames.com , to use for my genestealer cult.

I made this sci-fi puppetry 60s pastiche. CGI, almost completely physics-animated. Love letter to things like Thunderbirds, Fireball XL5, Space Patrol, and watching foreign television only to lose it forever afterwards youtu.be/ME7SVM7bwKU?si=jUYR6APY28kPCUqk

I do like the 'it doesn't count as buying new things if you go to indie creators' rule, yes. So... threw a few toys into the cart from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social because I medically require retail therapy on occasion.

Here is my best joke because a lot of people are sad just now and donโ€™t even have a shiny Japanese Wooper, and this joke is almost as good as owning a shiny Japanese Wooper:

How do you get a pikachu on the bus?

That has been my impression at first, but reviews and impressions have been good. It feels like it'd be quick to get going once you had a few games under the belt. If nothing else it's neat seeing US Army and Marines as separate even in a WWI game!

I wonder if you've seen 1918 from WarFulcrum Games? They're very keen to help shift perception out of the muck and mire. As well as the late war focused rulebook they've got a 100 Days scenario and gaming book coming as a follow-up, suits me down to the ground.

It feels a little like there's an untouchable mythos there, which doesn't really get looked around in the same way as WWII. "It was all mud and trenches and nothing else. Except for Gallipoli. What's a Levant?"

I often imagined it must have been a challenge sometimes to show the same love and attention to anything that would cross your desk for an issue, but it never felt like it flagged. WD always managed that tightrope super well - still does when I see it, which is nice.

Years ago my old boss at GW told me, "There's always a first time you discover something." It changed how I thought about sharing seemingly simple or 'obvious' stuff. So, to that end, while some of this might be old hat to folks, someone out there might be today's lucky find!

I wish I had seen this video *before* I spent some time this morning taking pictures of my miniatures... though I think I mostly followed a similar approach and got a relatively good result after editing ๐Ÿ˜…

Oh yeah! That's the sausage. I didn't bother with the 'legs' on front because I don't need them to hold pages of a book open.

Aah, but what do you apply it to afterwards? There's the big question. Cats don't stay still for long enough and apparently it's 'graffiti' and 'defacing public property' if I go into town to find a big enough building to use as a canvas for all this paint.

Anyhow, @tabletopminions.bsky.social's 'simple tips' are always worth checking out, if only because you never know whether or not you're missing a really great tool in your arsenal, and that voice should be recording audiobooks so I don't flip out in traffic.
