My son was into Ninjago for a while, but I have neither space, nor money to go in on the very lovely looking city sets. But the micro versions are cute, and I have insider points!

...*had* insider points.

Made a few purchases at Salute: Woodland Dwellers and Observer miniatures from Dungeons & Lasers, Tenfold Dungeon's Wizards Sanctum, a 3d printed astrolabe and magic portal.

Finally got all of this printed, now I just need time to paint and assemble it. Got a bunch of Draconian miniatures printing too. Looking forward to putting this on a table in front of players.

Painting the Gnoll Warseeker from Steamforged Games Epic Encounters. There's a lot going on on this guy, it's really fun to paint.

Finally got the D&D stamps framed and up on the wall. The Royal Mail did a great job with these, and they needed displaying.

Well, prep for Act 2 of my current campaign is progressing, I've got 16 players, and these are their characters...

It's always nice to take delivery of a Kickstarter reward, but this one deserves a shout out to Role & Play Press, their Map Library is really nice, a very solid case containing 50, 2-sided, dry-wipe maps, with their One-Shot Wonders book that makes use of them. Very pleased with this one.

More miniature painting today, an Elf Paladin (or cleric?) and a human fighter. I was pleased to get this fighter mini, obviously based on the picture in the 2014 D&D PHB, so I've tried to paint him to match that.

Been replaying the Talos Principle 2, and am finally back in Anthropic Hills. This is still one of my favourite views in the game.

Couldn't resist new Lego day, so I picked up the new Creator 3-in-1 Dragon set. I think it stands up as a Green Dragon next to the Red from the D&D set. The wing design is clever, and I really like the horns on the head.

Two more done, a wizard and a paladin from Wizkids, painted with Army Painter speedpaints.
December 29, 2024 at 2:33 PM
Time to start painting up my backlog of miniatures, starting with my white dragon. This is the Wizkids young while dragon from the unpainted Nolzur's range, painted using Army Painter paints.
And so I finally have a full set of painted chromatic dragons!

Merry Christmas everyone, this Christmas has been very miniature filled for me, with a bunch from the Sand and Stone D&D collection under the tree!

Well @mightylancergames.bsky.social, it's day 24 so I reach the end of your advent calendar with this fantastic beholder-kin. You've definitely made me a fan of Reaper Bones this year! An excellently curated calendar. #MLGAdvent

Day 23. A lizardman, well equipped for adventure.
One more day to go! #MLGAdvent
December 23, 2024 at 1:01 PM
Day 22: this guy looks like a very heavily armoured executioner. #MLGAdvent
December 22, 2024 at 1:51 PM
Day 21. I'm not sure what to make of this one, feminine, fancy dress, lots of hair. But the hair seems to have formed a hood of some sort. There's less detail here too. #MLGAdvent
December 21, 2024 at 9:57 AM
Day 20. A female necromancer. Unconcerned with any potential stigma attached to her choice of profession, she's going to raise the dead and look good doing so.

Fave dice? Simple question?
The blue set was a mystery bag from DnDice, they match my warlocks hair, so they're her dice now. The translucent green-purple dice came with Ginny Di's 2025 calendar. The incomplete multicoloured set was from last year's Mighty Lancer Games advent calendar.

Day 19:
See the little goblin,
See his very long hood.
See his crude two-handed axe,
Isn't the Goblin good?

(Thanks Blackadder!)

Day 18. I'm getting some real WFRP vibes here. This poor dude's obviously been at the warpstone. Loving this years selection of minis #MLGAdvent.
December 18, 2024 at 7:19 PM
Day 16: a (probably) human ranger. I like the amount of detail Reaper get onto these minis while still keeping them straightforward to paint, there's no bits getting in the way. It's clever. #MLGAdvent
December 17, 2024 at 9:03 AM
#MLGAdvent day 16 is this very well dressed Tiefling pirate (there is a partially concealed skull and crossbones on the right side of his hat). Lots of detail on this one too.

When I was a kid, Flumphs were marshmallows. D&D Flumphs are a little different, but if anyone makes a marshmallow version...let me know. It's a nice mini, and helpful to have as my wife plays a wild-magic barbarian. #MLGAdvent day 15.
