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!

If you have a Reddit account I’d really appreciate you heading over to r/sci-fi and upvoting the Terran omega page I’ve just posted (it always gets great views but so few upvotes -one or two if I’m lucky! it makes me question my sanity!) www.reddit.com/r/scifi/s/CO...

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition,

The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance

Iconic imo

Spring cleaning some of the workshop display shelves yesterday, & realising that some puppets are over 40 years old, & very delicate!

Okay, here's the story of George de Hevesy vs the Nazis! I really do love telling this story.

First, some background: George de Hevesy was a Hungarian-Jewish chemist, but he spent most of his career post-1920 attached to the Niels Bohr institute at the University of Copenhagen, in Denmark. (1/n)

This is one of the best conversations of this sort that I've heard. GDT is unusually explicit/self-aware about his influences (Hitchcock, Hopper, Goya, the Catholic Church, etc) and pinpoints exactly where you can see them in his work. Fascinating. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

In fact, let's do this.

#Nerdlings, post your early work! If you've only recently started, I want to see what you're doing! If you've been at it for a while let's see what you did way back when!

Here is a selection of some of my early work:

"Now witness the genesis of your destruction!"

Corrupted Sword of Fury is a Weapon in the upcoming #transformerstcg release War|Void that helps Heralds and Chaosbringers spend Void power.

The spectacular art was crafted by @jamesotron.bsky.social . Can you guess its barbarous inspiration?

Need a piece of scenery that's also a paint pot holder AND an eggcup for your breakfast? We're the world's only producer of just such an item, the Egg Throne. And I'm pretty confident that statement will always hold true...

"Warhammer 40k is what happens when the laws of physics are replaced by heavy metal music." - wish I could find the author of the quote.

It shall always remain a valid argument in any discussion trying to make sense of it, especially those brought up by allegorists and metaphorians.
