Been a while since I finished a model…
Here’s my #necromunda Agitator

Resin may be tricky to work with, but this guy was still super fun to paint. Didn’t know there was the chaos octet on his head!

(Mostly) finished Kal Jerico from #Necromunda

Hey #necromunda peeps, if I want to go all out for a multi-melta, how critical is a suspensor to keep it functional? I feel like missing your attacks on a melta template weapon could be INCREDIBLY BAD…

Most other blast templates I’m happy to scatter!

This weeks match for the Rust Rangers was a test in patience. Tons of potentially bad things kept happening on the Rolling Roads… but harsh consequences never really came. The real snag was nothing much cool/powerful happened on my end either. #necromunda is still fun regardless and we carry on!

Last night was an important game for the Rust Rangers. We got a solid skirmish down against a real malstrain gang and pushed it to a “survive the battle but lose the scenario” finish. First round my fresh new juve burnt to a crisp in the blistering hot weather and 66’d. No one was amused #necromunda

Welp, week two of #Necromunda for Caspiel’s Rust Rangers didn’t go so great:
Caspiel died…
Turns out having an opponent that heads straight for your hierarchy with decent lethal capacity should usually mean deciding to bottle. Well I didn’t do that and paid the price.
Onward to next weeks game!

Caspiel’s Rust Rangers get their debut tonight against the Malstrain Aligned Corpse Grinders! Pictured is the aftermath of a 17” ram, a four person flamer template hit… and then the consequences of being writhing charging range of the Corpse Grinders. #necromunda

As someone who read the whole series and LOVED IT, we are finally going through and watching #Foundation on Apple TV. There’s a ton of recognizable faces and I think a lot of the changes they made add a ton to the narrative. I’m excited for a re-read when I finish what’s available in the show!

Pushed this model out as quickly as can be (it doesn’t even have wheels yet!) converted an Ork Trukk for #Necromunda because I still clearly don’t have enough models…

Say hello so the Ogryn-crewed Monster (energy) Rig, sponsored by the Red headed Bull (I guess the boarding ramps are wings?)

Me taking photo of my minis:
Snap a shot while paint is still drying, with the same lighting I’m painting with… at whatever random angle gets lighting decent

…I may need to take this more seriously
I saw a post online talking about shooting your minis at lower angles to make them look more imposing and... like... it can't be /that/ easy, but it's that easy.

DM: How’d you like the game?

Newbie: It was awesome! How do you keep track of everything?

DM: A magician never reveals their secrets!

Newbie: Haha, yeah that’s true!

DM: I’m just kidding, my secret is confidence and bullshit, I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing.

Boosting for visibility. Alex is good people and a great employer!
Hiring for a graphic designer position at Kess! Posting about it here first. It’s in office, westwide Los Angeles. Will have a full job description later this week. But the roll is specifically working on the game design team!

Color scheme is coming together with the metal trim and silver tmm highlights.
We have an official start date for Underhells: 3 weeks to showtime!

Sort of ran out of steam. I'll paint his base and call it done. I still have the other four models from his box and then ten delaque gangers to paint anyway. #necromunda #nmm #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

The squad is coming together! Starting list building for the Feb Underhells campaign, and realized there weren’t many options for left hands…
Worked on magnetizing some more options (including two handed versions of basic weapons for juves to use) and then got some painting done! #necromunda

Be’lakor is almost done! I could abstely field this at this point and it would look great but there are a couple items to still touch on. This didn’t end up getting finished at the end of last year because I got sick, but it’s a noble model to start 2025 with!
