Guess I should do the whole introductory post thing. I'm Mike, or Blaven, whatever works. I'm just here to see cool art and talk about video games. Sometimes I do pixel art stuff and stream.
Rushing to get these bases done, so I can be ready for a game on the 29th. But I figured I'd share my progress on my Canoptek Wraith and their bases.

First time trying this so I can see where I need to improve. I must've hit the one eye when I primed it, which is a shame, but I'm pretty happy with the end result.

Gotta work up the energy to paint my brother in law's present. He's big into Smash Bros and plays Donkey Kong in the green palette, so I decided to get the amiibo and paint it in his colours.
Will post pictures when I finally have the creative juices going.

Maybe I've had too much to drink and maybe it's too early in the monring but shut up and listen to me.
Keep up the niche weird shit you've been doing. I'll keep liking that shit and I'm not alone. Y'all need to just keep doing what you're doing cause there's no one doing it quite like you are.

Honestly, I'm surprised Warframe isn't higher given how much me and my crew really got into it this year.

Stayed up way too late tonight, but hey, I got the last handful of achievements I needed for Vampire Survivors!

So, apparently the guys that supply my workplace propane decided to show up last month on the weekend. We are closed on weekends. They then proceeded to not tell anyone that they couldn't supply us with propane.
We have no propane to cut what few orders we have.

Here's the latest mini off of my workbench. He's a Yáopú Pangguling EVO REM. He's a hacker boi, and reminds me of those little dancing spiders.

Checking out the new class, "The Hive Scum", in Warhammer 40k Darktide over at: www.twitch.tv/blaven2. Loving the punk aesthetics and duel-wield weapons, so let's see if I find them enough fun to consider maining.

Thanks to those that supported the stream! Genuinely surprised to see I'm in the top 10% (of hours streamed?) for DbD.

Started and finished Dispatch today. Absolutely phenomenal writing, great characters with great performances, and from what I can tell the later episodes have a lot of variations.
My only gripe with the game was the UI during dispatches when using a controller was not very responsive.

Taking all of next week of for vacation, but got no plans. Will probably just try to get through games from my backlog.

Dispatch gonna be the next game I start up and work through. Mostly because I was hyped for it before release, and also because I've already been spoiled on shit (Thanks, Youtubers with no regard for spoilers in your thumbnails/titles) and want to get through the game before *more* gets spoiled.

Rolled credits on Time Stranger, and while I think that it definitely improved upon the other Digimon Story games in tons of ways, I feel that the story was weaker than Cyber Sleuth.
The last sections of thd game were pretty great though, especially the final boss.

You ever just absolutely pop off in a match as a low tier? Apparently that's cringe. #dbd #scrubquotes

I've realized that I've only completed two games this year: 1000xResist and Azure Striker Gunvolt 1. Everything else I've played this year, I've dropped probably around the 60-70% mark. All great games, but my ability to play through one game has just been horrible lately.

I already really liked the Cyber Sleuth games, but I think I'm enjoying Time Stranger more now that I've gotten into the *real* meat od the game's story.

Bought mine. Should be a fun way to try and introduce my Warframe group into Starfinder.
Though I kind of wish there were more things added for making your own protoframe. Gonna have to see what the community homebrews using this.

Having a lazy Sunday stream over at www.twitch.tv/blaven2. Just the usual DbD, still working on getting the last 4 achievements that I need for 100% completion.

Oh, wow. Youtube ads are getting worse and worse on mobile. After watching (skipping) two ads, they just plaster the last ad's side window onto the video. They even got rid of being able to close the side window in full screen mode, so I have to tilt my phone vertically to close a separate ad.
