hey I'm Tim. I design/sculpt miniatures and models, anything from tiny chubby tanks to kangaroo cavalry and trashbags. Occasionally I actually get round to painting my own designs as well. I also wrote a little book called Tankhead with my friend @emersontung.bsky.social
You've become unstoppable

I think you might be correct, though corners of the setting may be what you are after I expect.
February 13, 2026 at 1:32 PM
Actually, isn't Hârn right in that area? Though I'll admit I know very little about the setting besides its been around a while and there is a lot of it by now.

Some Roadside Picnic in there for good measure.

I feel like they intended that yeah, but then they go and state "Each land holding is roughly a league (3 miles)" which makes me inclined to draw maps indeed!

I'm with you there! I think there is a lot to like about the system which makes the flaw sting all the more. Heck I spend a good bit of time trying to create a hex map generator that would match with the land holdings of the game.

It did some interesting stuff for heritages and introduces a fairly interesting magic system (which expansions for it available) but the IIRC rather unbalanced warfare system did not get an overhaul and I believe some accidental omissions from ASOIAF were copied over.

My mind went to the Barbarossa ruins in Nijmegen. Funny how we can look at the art and go "oh yeah I know that spot" from different places in the world.

I'm zeon green with jealousy

huh, psyker wraith walker, have se seen that before? I imagine so but dont recall.

Not the route I'd have taken, but if it works it works!
February 12, 2026 at 5:14 PM
Not even close!
February 12, 2026 at 3:09 PM
And like, the Alofs reloading system actually works, even though it looks like it really shouldn't!

Its definitely a chunky boy, and making it more art accurate chunky as I go!

At the point of this build where parts are more putty and plasticard than original kit. Bonus points for anyone who can identify the kit just from these bits.
February 11, 2026 at 5:38 PM
Oh hell yeah!

The algorithm is truly helping me showmy best side.

Do we have to?
February 10, 2026 at 6:42 PM
Soon you'll get a compliment every minute!

In retrospect calling a local farmer who happily would come take your shit, literally, was kinda weird.
February 10, 2026 at 6:38 PM
Oh wow

Age verification? I remember when we got connected to the sewer network.
Age verification? I played Pong months after it was released.
Age verification? My first record was from K-Tel.
