Hobbyist Miniature painter, dad, elden ring enjoyer.

Ive always wanted to go to GenCon, but it isnt for me. Its a celebration of capitalism and those who can afford to sign up for events and buy the newest games. Its less a celebration of games than i expected. Unless you know what you want, you get lost in "this is sold out" responses. Great...

Im making a video game. Its time to pursue a long time dream. I have a working prototype and excited to get started. Pixel art, chiptunes, all the mechanics i have enjoyed a experienced over the 36 years or so of playing video games.

Mordheim warband. I was in a rush to paint and play, but they look good for just a few hours of work. I played Mairenburgers. Having never played before, had a blast. Came 10/16 over 6 games. Ill tune up my team and keep playing.

Battletech Aces painted. Something simple as the yellow was done by my daughter (7) and we did it together without anything fancy. She did everything on her own except I cleaned the base rim.

I’m still painting. Also taking mini painting classes. This is probably the last model before you see new and better techniques from me. No highlights or anything, just needed it ready for Path of Glory game I already see improvements in my newer models in how I paint.

Taking my time building models for a path to glory. I have a color scheme picked, just need to get a good weather day for priming. Most of these were 2nd hand. I’ve been fixing them up. I still have 10 knights to assemble

Cyberpunk Red Combat Zone Piranha Gang. Painted like the display cards inside the box. I swapped the head of the Blaster cause I don’t like Hockey Mask look. Also Raver does not come with Sunglasses on her head selections.

Cyberpunk Red Combat Zone Piranha Block Boss. I dig the models and used the cards as inspiration. Here’s the first one after touch ups. I’m up for criticism or improvements as I’m at a good spot to adjust anything on the others as well.

Hobby motivation comes and goes, but when my significant other says “let’s play Battletech” I almost always jump at the opportunity. My Warhammer and her king crab blew each other up with ammo explosions in the same turn. The only unit remaining was a single SRM helicopter.

I never played with my first ever Battletech minis. So I built a tournament team to take to a local. I was still new to painting. I also made the thunderbolt cockpit mistake lol
