Robot enjoyer. I paint minis, mostly battletech.
Most comfortable with He/Him.

#battletech #minipainting #miniaturepainting Quartered livery archer done! I may add some unit markings later, going to do a lance to go with him. I prefer to keep my minis faction agnostic though. Base is inspired by roads i saw in Brazil.

Game day! The mysteriously well equipped pirates the Unmarked (left, played by me) will be conducting a raid in territory garrisoned by the Canopian aligned mercenaries the Mithril Vixens (right, played by @arraxis.bsky.social). All minis painted by yours truly. #battletech

Calling it done. Wasnt sure what i was doing with the base. Overall real happy with the effect, eldar are super fiddly to paint though. Scheme inspired by Gyunei Guss' Jagd Doga from Chars Counterattack. #warhammer40k #warhammer #miniaturepainting #aeldari

Man cameras really highlight every stray brushstroke in a way the eye doesnt see. Progress on my swooper from the previous post. Going for harsh dark to light transitions. Trying new techniques. #miniaturepainting #warhammer #warhammer40k #Aeldari

Picked up some Aeldari on a whim a while back, finally started work on one of them. First GW model in a decade or something like that. Still have plenty of mechs to paint but its nice to change it up now and then. Just bases and some pre-shades so far.

And the rest of the bronze mechs. Nightsky and Axman join the Hatchetman and Wolfhound for a very Lyran lance. #battletech #miniaturepainting Working name is the Bronze Boars.

These two had been "almost done" for ages. I wasnt super happy with the bronze effect but decided to just get them finished. Its amazing how much proper basing can improve a model, in the end i think they look alright. #battletech #miniaturepainting

Calling the lance done. Sans basing which i'll do tomorrow. Theyre meant to be Canopian spec ops or something like that. I enjoy the kabuki mask for the Panther. #battletech #miniaturepainting

WIP commission model for my friend @arraxis.bsky.social . Based loosely on their character reference sheet. This is the concept model for a whole lance if it gets the nod. Needs some touchups and the base isnt done yet. Overall i like it. #battletech

Horve racing profits off of animal cruelty and gambling. If youre playing (especially if youre paying) the horse girl game you are supporting those industries. The characters might be charming but thats how they hook you and get you to normalise awful things. You're being slowly boiled alive.

Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995
