Tradesman by day. Painter by night.
I like painting mechs and wizards, currently obsessed with Battletech and Frostgrave.
I 3D print a lot and use a Bambu P1S/Saturn 3

We have miles of underground tunnels at work. The ones going under the abandoned sections of the plant are extra creepy. One Snapchat filter later and it looks like a found footage horror movie

Trying a new camo on this mech, going for the DCU of the 90s. I'm really enjoying researching and applying real life camos to these models. I might keep this up as a running side project and just make a lance of every cool camo.

Mostly done on this Jagermech. Went for a NATO 3-Tone camo as a practice piece. I think next time I want to try a black instead of the dark grey I used.

Played our first game of tabletop Blood Bowl. Very fun game, Lizardmen rolled hot and ended up getting two casualties on my dwarfs in the first 3 turns #wargames #nerdlings

Got an itch to learn blood bowl because I like the video game. Figured if the motivation is still there by the time I finish painting a scoreboard I'll dedicate more time into making a board

Most of my Dwarves are finished for #Frostgrave
I've had so much fun painting these up, it's almost sad I'm so close to being done.....guess that means I got a print some more!

Some pics from our Frostgrave game Friday. We're doing all the scenarios in order, and boy are we all hooked already.
We got ambushed by a werewolf, bear and several ghouls. Everyone maxed out on XP and got at least 2 treasures each so it felt like a very good game #wargames #wargaming

Sliding in a #wip Wednesday last minute. Starting on some #Frostgrave dwarves I'm calling "The Brewer's League" led by an enchanter dwarf with the goal of making the most magical beer ever, who thinks the key is in the frozen city somewhere

I need to decide on a name for the merc company, but here's the first one done.
It was a nice change to how I usually paint things, this was just a series of dry brushes with a speed paint over top to tie it together, and then the lens is simple layering but works pretty well

The Crusader rides the line between western clunky mechs, and the Japanese gundams for me. It's one of my favorites. Plus, it has a load out to deal with whatever mission it needs to

Playing around with some colors for a mercenary outfit.
Asked my fiance to pick the pallet, and she went with poison green with a black undercarriage

I built a little Lego dinosaur yesterday. Baby Bumpy is the kit name, adorable little guy.

Some little men to support the big robots. The Longinus suit is the FWL attempt at mimicking the Elemental armor. They are pretty close, but can't quite live up to the original.
