How cute is this critter from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social ! I'm using it as a Chaos spawn in my Old World army.
Aw thanks! She looks great, must have been tough competition!
My entry to this month's local painting contest. The theme was the strongest women in the world, so I knew what I had to enter. It was Battle Annie from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social . Unfortunately she placed 16/16 but she is still tops in my book. #nerdling #strongwomen #contest
It's totally the time of year I build photo scenes of places I just want to be right now. Like in a mound with a nice herbal tea, and orb, and big moon. Maybe some of those posh crisps.

I recommend @berlintuesday.bsky.social for little hills and nubs ready to go!
I have this serious urge to get a @monstergirltrish.bsky.social treeman and absolutely cover it with @badsquiddogames.bsky.social gnomes.
This is because I feel certain that gnomes live in trees and sometimes the trees walk around.
I paint my Silver Bayonet monsters, etc. in a black and white scheme, both because it's very fast for producing lots of NPCs, etc., but also because it's got this nice visual effect of asking "Is any of this actually real?"
This time, the Turkey Man by @badsquiddogames.bsky.social

HUMILIATED NAZIS 🥴 🤢
These three fellas are not having a good time. One is throwing up, one going to the toilet in his helmet and the other scratching his groin profusely.
Annie, what have you made this time?
Well we make lots of miniatures of folk who sabotaged the Nazis, so here are some of the sabotage results! Poisoning was used during WW2 from the civilian level right up to the top. The SOE was nicknamed the Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare to reflect how they really did think and act outside of the box.
What better way to sabotage your enemy than to give them a dicky tummy? The SOE even worked with the Norwegian Milorg to poison a whole shipment of sardines headed to a Uboat, with Croton oil. Croton oil.
This idea first formed in my head when watching an interview with Vera Laska as she recounted the old resistance days, and it included laxatives being casually put into Officers coffee's in cafes and wherever else you can imagine.
Why the guy having a go at his groin? Itching powder. Distributed heavily by the SOE, this was put into clothing, washing powder and even condoms. The latter caused an even further morale dip due to panic they had something much more serious happening down there. Yes, plenty of sex workers were (and still are) resistance.
In games you can use them as disruption or wound markers,a little diorama or even get creative and build a scenario/objective into it! Or just get them because, you know, Humiliated Nazis.
Pic is sculpts 28mm of three nazis, one being sick, one pooping in his helmet and one scratching his groin.

John Hammond spared so many expenses.
@badsquiddogames.bsky.social addressing my perennial complaint that not enough historical figure lines have people shitting themselves to death with dysentery.
10/10, no notes, perfect 0200 Hours minis.
I do adore @badsquiddogames.bsky.social - some of the best (and most necessary) minis around.
Sometimes I am never sure if it's good or bad that I have no business partner or shareholders, it means I can do stuff like that 😂
