Rumors of my demise have been slightly exaggerated... got back from my U.S. work trip last week, and this week I've been hacking away at the Ork side of the Armageddon box. One more sprue of Boyz to build and then it'll just be down to putting everything on bases and prepping for painting. #40k
aww man why am I only just learning about this? (not that I would have been in any condition to attend)
Montro@montro.bsky.social · 3w agoLast week, a MÖRK BORG-only TTRPG convention was held in Tokyo. Five game sessions were run, and I was the GM for one of them.
Did get a project finished before my upcoming long work trip - this incredible #Evangelion model by Kaiyodo for @mechamay.bsky.social! He's a hugeboi and I had fun with enamel washes for that grimdark weathering and OSL. #mechamay #minipainting
@nerdy.tokyo Reading this piece on dealing with invasive overseas crayfish in Naha. Is this how I should imagine Ork spores in the 40k world? xtech.nikkei.com/atcl/nxt/col...
外来ザリガニをセメントで封じ込め、池の水全部抜いて駆除
那覇市の公園で外来種のザリガニを駆除するため池の水を全て抜き、底の泥にセメントを混ぜて卵を封じ込める工事を2026年秋に実施する。卵が流出しないようフィルターを通して池の水を排出し、底の泥をセメントで固めた後にコンクリートで蓋をする。駆除が終わったらコンクリートの上に水を入れ、再び池に戻す計画だ。

I'm trying to think of a sillier combination than pistol + one-handed sword + gigantic tactical rock and I'm struggling.
Vincent Knotley@vincentknotley.bsky.social · 4mo agoNew Warhammer 40k Space Marine Primaris Vanguard Veterans just got unveiled on Warhammer Community, complete with power sword, plasma pistol, and a penchant for landing on enemies thanks to the hefty primaris jump packs. #New40k #WarhammerCommunity www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articl...
What's your favourite of the classic Necromunda gangs? For me it's 100% the Escher! Although I do like most of them. I gotta get me a classic Delaque gang one day!!
No pin but very pleased with the response to my Golden Demon entry at Adepticon. Super happy with how it turned out and ready to move on to the next project! #bloodbowl #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer
Hello from Adepticon and from my first class piece, from last night’s @brushforhire.bsky.social class “Making You Uncomfortable”! Gonna see if I can’t finish this off and get it in the MAA case.
Suitcases shipped ahead to airport ✅ Carry-on packed ✅ Backpack packed ✅ Golden Demon entry secured ✅ Checked into flight ✅ Somewhat cleaned up my hobby area ✅ Devices charged ✅ Only hyperventilating a little ✅ #Adepticon here we come!
Catching all the little details I seem to have overlooked on my Golden Demon piece and starting to make peace with "let's at least get those painted and nothing's perfect and I need to remind myself that getting it done and in the case is as good as winning." #adepticon
With about a week to go, my Adepticon 2026 schedule! Some of the non-class events are maybes and I'm especially not sure if I'll have post-class energy to play EDH but I'd like to try. If I'm not in a class I'm probably at Fort Wappel; I'll also have Japanese kitkats to give and stickers to trade!
So uh Adepticon eh? My Golden Demon project is coming together… I def. won’t trophy and I likely won’t pin, but my goal is to see this concept through and get it in the case and I think I’ll manage that.
@ass.golf hi Jeph, is something wrong with the feed? No Patreon comics since your Wednesday night.
My DSPIAE pen sander appears to have died and doesn't seem to want to charge, any recommendations on a replacement? #warhammer #minipainting
Played my first game of commander and succeeded in my goal of being a general nuisance even though I died first (and then after that we realized that the winner would be decided on the next turn anyway). May have to eventually build my own deck though for now I’ll stick with precon. #mtg
First Warhammer Experience Tokyo had lines out the door from opening - massive effort to introduce the hobby to newbies with a video station, paint demo and game demo. Combat Patrol/Spearhead open play signups filled up less than an hour after registration was announced earlier this month.
Let in one nazi and you've got a nazi convention. Looking forward to spending my time and money at other cons in the future.
Conor McGovern@conormcgovern.bsky.social · 7mo agoThe remaining board members put out this chickenshit statement, "reiterating" their support for LGBT people and banning art showing violence towards any groups. Obviously they meant to imply the "drama" was caused by art depicting violence towards LGBT people, rather than the inverse. True cowardice
Applying water decals and mostly not fucking it up - though I was getting some weird reactions with the softener and setter on the Vallejo express paint. Is that a typical interaction? Applied varnish after the first incident and mostly seemed to help. #bloodbowl
Bit late posting this but it turns out that waking up at 2:30am to register for #Adepticon *was* worth it as I got the swag bag badge *and* some amazing classes (including w/ @brushforhire.bsky.social & @d-ozborne.bsky.social). Still figuring out how I'm getting from Chicago to Milwaukee on 3/25...
