For Episode 338, our first episode on Pickaxe, we decided that it made sense to start with a guide to getting started in Warhammer 40K!

These were fun to paint, and it’s yet more incentive to learn Kill Team!
GW gave Rob a chance to paint up the new XV26 Stealth Suits from the Dead Silence box. He’s always liked stealth suits, and the new ones are only very slightly up-scaled while being much more varied.

Fucking love the message here, "either one of two science fiction movie happens or Al does not affect growth in any way"

Did I show you guys the poster I made for The Ty-We Collectors charity Expo? This was a free print for the first 100 attendees at the door. I signed several of these for people and it was fun to see new faces.
@nockergeek.bsky.social even collaborated a bit!

I’ve mentioned before that my kids and I like to make art based on our silly fandom speculation. Here’s one from a few years back. Pokemon + Homestar Runner universe.

Imagine it, some time in the future. Explaining to kids that people needed jobs to live. To have essential services. To be housed. And when they ask why we'll have to tell them that once upon a time we thought people were worthless. That if they didn't at least serve coffee they should die.
I want to live in a world where we don't celebrate people getting jobs. Where living doesn't require employment.

Can confirm. Back in May, our Crunchyroll subscription - which we’d had for years without issue - was suddenly denied by Mastercard due to being “high-risk”. Even attempts to push it through manually got flagged, so we had to change payment methods. Past history didn’t matter at all. So stupid.
MasterCard is marketing its new MasterCard Threat Intelligence platform to issuers & acquirers. A source familiar w/ MasterCard’s internal operations told me MTI is flagging anime, VTubing, adult content, tabletop, video games as potentially “high fraud risk”

My goal for this month is to learn Kill Team (as I have the starter set, along with several other sets), and maybe start playing a little bit of solo PvE with it, so that I can teach it to others.

Big ol' Warhammer (fanart!) poster I did for the Apothecarion charity event. This was a massive undertaking for mw, it's the most complex thing I've ever done and the first piece of (semi) personal art I've completed in about 10 years.

Attended the Ty-We Collector’s Expo Charity event in Harrisonville, MO today. The turn-out was fantastic and thanks to regulars, we turned a nice profit. Made some new friends and art while also getting to contribute to scholarships for local artists. So fun! Thanks, all!
