On the left, the #bloodangels Terminator Captain I wanted when #warhammer40k Leviathan came out. On the right, the Captain I got with the recent terminator force.

I’ll never be a competition painter, but it feels good to compare them and see how I’ve improved over the past couple of years.

Seriously considering just taking a hatchet to a big chunk of my hobby backlog and throwing it on eBay.

I know it’s a #warhammer meme that there are an absurd number of lieutenants… but why aren’t there models or rules for a lieutenant with jump pack or a lieutenant in terminator armor? Do they forget how to use those when promoted?

Adobe cranked up the price of my Photographer sub to 15, so I canceled it. I need to go through and export my stuff before it runs out... but what are the go-to #photoshop alternatives these days?

Colm McGuinness' music is pretty much always playing while I paint, and now his Warhammer songs will be playing on vinyl for me. Back this project now! #shanty #warhammer40k #colmmcguinness #kickstarter

Sorting through a few decades of memories… pulled bins down from the attics to do some cleaning and the like. And yes, those curtains are a memory.

You know if we replaced the media word “controversy” with “whining” I think we’d get closer to the truth. Like there’s no controversy over Bad Bunny’s halftime show, MAGA types are just whiny racists

Game pass was honestly barely worth $20, and it's not worth 30.

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later.

My mum dug out some old photographs.

This is the 28mm scale Warhammer 40k Gargant my brother and I made out of paper mache and kitchen refuse circa 1990.

You may not like it, but this is what ork performance looks like.

I haven’t finished my #BloodAngels or #Aeldari or #ImperialGuard and that’s why I’m starting on Votann. #warhammer40k #pileofshame

When you look at either the atomic scale or the stellar scale, almost everything is nothing.

I don't have 20 minutes free this morning, most the things he talks about just aren't my thing at all, and I couldn't tear myself away.
OK I've never seen this video before, but I'm not even halfway through and I cannot get over how much I respect John Cena for his ability to admit his faults, apologise sincerely, and commit with everything he has to being better. The man is just so PURE & we are so LUCKY.
