Software development, miniature painting and sculpting, BBQ, science fiction. Ya boi is into all of it. Like a nerd.
It is a good day to celebrate a complete run around the sun.

Brazilian BBQ, shots, mudcake and art books of Roman Lappat and Sam Lenz.

Did not dare to crack the covers before the cherries were devoured.

Serj Tankian and a dry Riesling. Sounds like a nice afternoon with the missus.

Max Miller had the recipe for a school pizza from the 80s, and wifey got excited.

So now we have pizza for a few days!

Christmas break is here, two weeks of paid vacation ahead. To celebrate, experimental cocktail time!

Aged rum as a base of earthy and spiced tones,
Gambina for bitter cranberry notes,
Contreau for orange and sweetness,
Amaretto for almonds and sweetness,
Lime to balance it all out.
2:1:1:1:1 ratio.

When you dislike the engineer and apparently weren't as excited about the Belisarius Cawl kit as you thought...

Make an engineer you're excited about.

Impatience caused Christmas to arrive in the living room before the month turned over.

Impulse control is not something practiced in this house.

Local game store had me with their black Friday deal. The swarm grows!

Got the box because of Skaven, but I think the devout Stormcast would make an interesting base for a Trench Crusade conversion. Not quite the era with the armor, but slap on enough Christian iconography and grimdarkness... Hmm..

I think we can all agree that 2 hour Teams meetings benefit no one. All of this time could have been used to build the simulation for that same client for the same project. Two people of the six attending got some notes, I said a total of three sentences.

At least some clan rats got built.

The Arachnorok spider made me realize how inadequate my photo setup is to handle miniatures that are largely dark colors, and massive in size.

Then again, it is but a large piece of felt, propped up against my paint box, and illuminated with my painting light that is diffused by baking paper.

Sometimes you don't want to paint your miniatures.

Sometimes you just want to build.

It's a different type of zen, but it relaxes all the same.

Nerds spend the day crafting together.

Me and @aztecdune.bsky.social became a temporary subsidy of Kuat Systems Engineering. Two Firespray-31s, ready to hunt down rebel scum.

Fine, I'm a consumer whore just as much as the next person. But when you have a chance to get a high quality art book detailing the works of both Roman Lappat and Sam Lenz, I can't throw my money at the screen fast enough.

Should arrive shortly after my birthday too. Excited is an understatement.

Man had a eye for the unnerving.

Well there's a handy feature everyone should know about. Grab the maggots by their handles and mute hundreds in a single action.

All weekend spent chipping away at goblin skin. So tiny I feel like nothing has been gained. But then again, the little freaks are half baked anyway, skin is like half the battle on these guys.

Hopped on here because threads started floating news of ads getting added as early as the turn of the year.

Threads is leagues ahead in how simple it is to block accounts, which is a veeery common thing when you just want to enjoy your social media.

At least the black listing of words is easy.

Deep breath, and paint those knuckles on dem feet!

The Finnish idiom for this situation goes "precise like fucking a mosquito". #miniaturepainting #wip #warhammer

Elly and its Phant have been sculpted and hollowed out, now they need some supports for printing.
