This is a very different question for those of us who went to a certain type of school in the U.K. For example, my answer to this is “Samuel Taylor Coleridge”.

Another vampire! Proud parents, their daughter and new addition, adorable little grandson. Look at those abs! Next is a grinning psychopath with bat wings. Minis are @fenrisgames.com Dark Fable Egypt and Barbaric Splendour all sculpted by @mad-elf.bsky.social Backdrop by @handiworkgames.bsky.social
3 pale figures, a muscled hairy brute, 2 little kids and slender woman in ribcage corset. All are monochrome except for red mouth and lips. Close up of the brute. Long hair and beard, tattered clothes and black boots. He’s snarling showing teeth and a splash of red. The three together pictured on a rocky outcrop with misty trees behind Brute on his own on the outcrop.

I spent the weekend at the Compendium of Rathe World Premiere playing a massive amount of the Flesh and Blood card game. I am absolutely exhausted but have a day off to recover.
A large standing sign telling people which hall the Flesh and Blood “Compendium of Rathe” World Premiere is in. It has art work showing the lands and heroes of Rathe, with coloured swirling lines coming out of a huge tome.

Mini of the month - Rebirth

Entry 3 by @tristanwelsh.bsky.social

The circle of strife. 

#Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth
A decayed goblin skeleton in black robes stands in a woodland scene. A gigantic red cap mushroom sprouts from the cap of its robes and smaller mushrooms are growing from inside the hanging skeletal jaw. The goblin holds a giant scythe that is covered in bright green lichen. A spiders web is being strung between the blade tip and the handle. The wooden base has a collection of different mushrooms sprouting from it.  A decayed goblin skeleton in black robes stands in a woodland scene.

Reminder that Firearms existed in Medieval Europe before full plate armour.

If you've got a medieval-fantasy setting that features plate armour, it is absolutely NOT immersion-breaking to include early firearms.

Figuring out how to incorporate scenery elements and basing material in concert with the @handiworkgames.bsky.social backdrop books is proving to be a lot of fun.

Obviously a lot of these miniatures would benefit from the 'right' base but they each fit well enough for a few tests!

A few close up that show the varying average quality of the sculpts and what standard I was happy to leave them at.

Slooow start to 2026, here’s my first. She’s another adventurer type rather than a particular faction or cult. She probably has a a gorilla vest on under that armour. Shown with her fellow relic reclamation operatives. She’s an upcoming Dragon Bait, all her lovely friends are @fenrisgames.com
Woman in red armour and helm with a yellow crest. She’s waving a sword and a large figure 8 shield. Same mini showing the shield, made from zebra hide. 5 adventurer types. A hoplite woman, a duck, a tracker, on from earlier pic, and 2 warriors wearing horned gladiator helms.

More relevant than ever, and by popular demand: another LIMITED run of our Antifa miniatures shirt courtesy of SlowDeath Games. Available in red or black and several sizes.

Only in the shop for a couple of weeks so nobody's waiting forever for these to arrive. Grab yours now, terrorists!
Red tee shirt with the antifa flag logo formed from black and red hands holding paintbrushes. the text surrounding the symbol says "Love Miniatures, Hate fascism".

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.
