Hi, I'm Grae. By day I work in stop-motion animation, by night I paint models. Mostly 40K, but I'm partial to a Gundam or anything cool, when the opportunity arises!

#Nerdlings #FindFolkFriday

So I'm curious, if you are someone who plays Warhammer (insert sub brand here) on the table top, would you still play TTWG if Warhammer didn't exist as a TTWG? The lore, the books, the games, etc is all still there. They just don't have a Wargame.

Hey, remember my @nickroche.bsky.social commission from this year's TFN that I wasn't sure about getting coloured because it's two mostly white characters on a mostly black background?

Well @jamesotron.bsky.social has proven me a fool!

I guess the only way to describe this is SPACE TIME.

ngl i did get a tiny bit of a thrill at seeing a model i used to do production casting for in the Stranger Things finale. back in the days when Otherworld minis were first getting off the ground I was casting these almost as fast as Richard could sell them. lovely stuff.
painted model of the Otherworld demon idol, sculpted by Paul Muller and based on the Trampier art from the cover of 1e Advanced D&D. it's beem beautifully painted so that tje chest and lower face appear uplit by the flames in the bowl held in its lap. screenshot from Stranger Things with Mike explaining a plot point from their game of D&D, with the Otherworld idol at bottom right of screen. closer cropped picture of the same idol on screen.

++MECHANICUS CHRISTMAS ++
An Adept Minoris of the Divisio Psychologicus, dressed in seasonal robes, visits Oldgate down in the Necromunda Underhive.

#Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth
Page one of a four-page comic featuring the mini painted for this month’s challenge - A low-ranking member of the Adeptus Mechanicus, dressed in hooded red robes with a green sash and a red, green, and white braided collar. His mechanical body is burnished bronze and gold. This Christmas Cog-Boy questions the seasonal disappearance of the citizens of Oldgate and we see him tour the empty marketplace, have a reflective seasonal moment, and then set off on a quest. As a member of the Divisio Psychologicus, he is duty-bound to investigate matters of social interest. Page two sees our cog-boy discover the source of the mysterious music. It’s the annual End of Year show by Blind Phelynx! It is being held in the graffiti-filled alleyway we saw last month! There are lights and shouts and music and our little mechanical explorer can’t believe it. Then he meets BOB, the drummer! AMAZING!! On page three we discover that BOB has invited our little mech up on stage and he has the time of his life with the band. Luckily he’s wearing his seasonal robes! All the band members’ names are listed among the sound effects and our cog-boy cannot believe his luck. Then he sees a vicious fight break out as a Goliath gang gatecrashes the show. Page four shows the cog-boy pictured next to his saviour, an Escher ganger with a Mohawk and a big sword. She invites him clubbing! And then he wakes up in the middle of a stinking trash heap… Our story ends with our cog-boy running as fast as his mechanical legs can carry him, away from another group of Goliath gangers.

Since Andy is both feeling unwell and busy today, let's do #Nerdlings #FindFolkFriday today for him.

Since it's a new year, today's Theme is "New and Shiny."

Now how you interpret that is up to you, it could be a new range of models, an AFV painted to look brand new, or a knight in shining armour.
Well, you can't get much newer then this LOL. Still boxed models! Honestly this pic is just for attention, not a real example!

Last piece of art from me for 2025? Sure, why not. Let's merge my two biggest loves together, huh?

UNCANNY RESIDENT EVIL! Issue one! Worth a couple thousand on ebay, these days.

Hopefully it's at a neighbour's 🤞
