Semi-professional nerd (Retailer in tabletop gaming.) I also occasionally paint my miniatures. You can usually find me in Eorzea, Teyvat, or Tyria. He/ Him, opinions and views here are reflective of me only.
Test paint for Steel Reign, my all combat vehicle mercenary force for Battletech Aces: Scouring Sands.
They are on their third sortie and feeling kinda rough.

First time I've been disappointed with a box set from Catalyst.
The ball is .5mm bigger than the socket on the towers. Not a huge issue for me, I can (and likely will) magnetize this. But for the novice hobbyist? This is a turn-off. I hope CGL talks to the factory before a second run. #battletech

What do you do when you build an Empire cannon and have a mortar left over? Scratch build a chassis for it! Still a WiP, but this gets it playable for tomorrow. I might try to get more detail added before then. #warhammerfantasy #theoldworld #wargaming

It's still good ya'll. It's still good. Liquid gold. Okay, maybe not.
But I might have to use it to paint the rims of some of my Warhammer bases. Just for the nostalgia feels. Maybe my old Screamer-Killer Carnifex from 2e 40k.

Wraith.
He's a little anemic on firepower, but has the speed and maneuverability to put it where you want it. Preferably in the back of your opponent.

Welp. Back on this bullshit again. I like large armies of smol dudemens. (Not seen in this picture. Warmaster Orcs, Epic Imperial Guard, and not-Warmaster not-Empire that needs printing.)

Here's the sole Glade Guard unit I have. (The others are all Deepwood Scouts.) Spaced out with an adapter tray, it's not so bad.

So, it might just be a side effect of me building them for 20mm bases. But getting this ranked up properly is a pain. The command is also troublesome because you want to do the shooter legs perpendicular to the front, but the command somewhat parallel.

One Vulture Mk.IV D, seven pins.
Two in each arm, one in the left leg, two in the right leg.
Now I just need to add the tactical rock for the left leg, and officially glue the torso to the legs.

D&D night cooking.
Made butter chicken, with cucumber salad as a side. Plus naan and basmati rice. The cucumber salad is supposed to have red onion in it, but two of us have an aversion to onion. #cooking #gamenight

Part of my order arrived at the FLGS today, the rest should be next week. Looking to glue my fingers together and model the Vulture Mk.IV D variant. #Battletech

Bored at work. One hour of retail until close. I finally had to scratch the blind box itch. Not sure who is getting the Jager and the Dervish, and not sure which Hell's Horses galaxy is getting the IIC - Iota or Fire Horse. #Battletech

A friend let me use his 3d printed hills and trees for a little extra zing for the map. It was nice, though the mats are actually a smidge smaller than the standard mapsheets, so things were a bit tight. 2/4

Whoops. I forgot to post con pictures. Pictures from the Battletech: Alpha Strike game I ran in the first session. I kinda wish I took a few more pictures, and had more trees setup.

Work in progress for an IlClan era mercenary force called "The Starkillers". Still needs work, and I'm not sure how I want to finish the cockpit. (Sadly, this also looks nearly perfect for the 17th Avalon...)

Oh, right. Here we are, half-way through the month, and I've yet to share a picture of the Mordheim setup for work's gaming table.
Yeah, I know, most of the buildings are unpainted.
