Caturday "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?"
A ginger cat lies alertly atop a wooden structure with a pitched roof, staring hard off into the distance. There's a window in a red brick wall beyond. Barely a foot behind the cat on the roof is a magpie, staring at the cat.

Traditiones custodes probably wouldn't have happened if not for that, pachamama, and vigano blaming Francis for McCarrick

Slower progress then usual today as I am (by my standards) *very* ill…
Not quite done, but getting there.

After 5 years of waiting for the right moment (painting ability) to paint this massive resin chunk of a dreadnought, I finally decided it's time!

With 32 magnets in arms, weapons, head and rocket-battery it's basically an action figure as well.

First WIP of the painting process of this Custodes Telemon Heavy Dreadnought from Forgeworld (now Games Workshop). It's primed black, has one cannon arm and one powerfist in this picture as well as a custom base with different decorative elements, like branches, rocks, tufts, but also a large rune, which is the only detail painted in color, which is a blend from yellow to green and into blue, which will emit an osl onto surrounding shapes. It's photographed in front of neutral grey background and features a small sized low opacity version of the CryoCheese icon in the bottom left corner.

🔴 Live now!

I'll start by looking at last nights Warhammer reveals - and giving them a personal ranking! :D - before painting the Telemons base I posted about yesterday.

Should be great fun 😊

They're gonna stroke out if the rumors about that 30k custodes with female armor and head options is real

Standing in the middle of the footpath filming people seems like annoying behaviour for a "self-appointed pavement vigilante." Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

I agree but that doesn't give conservative Catholics the right to ignore what the Pope decrees. My parish still practices the Latin Mass and, from the pulpit, have proclaimed the Second Vatican Council as evil. They continue to ignore Pope Francis' Traditionis custodes.

Mistress Aspyce: I have 1000 points of OPR Drukhari printed and assembled! Get your Custodes together and prepare to watch them die!

Me: Oh, I'm sorry, Mistress. You spent so long getting your army together that a new edition came out. Updating your list... and you only have 850 points.

Aspyce: 😡

And that's two Magnuses almost done.

One commissioned to go along the custodes and Eldars characters.
One to stay with the studio's Thousand sons

Played 1000 pt game of 40K with my Drukhari vs Custodes last night. Turns out speed kills, after a slow start I managed a victory. Had a lovely close combat to hit roll for my Wyches, needing 3+ to hit with sustained hits! #WarhammerCommunity
1000pts of Drukhari 40K game set up, Drukhari boats in the middle, Custodes hiding in the ruins 24 dice, 23 are 3+s Game score board

Trygon prime - finished.
Taking the photos realised I meant to do a bit more to the grey on the statue on the base, but a bit fiddly now I’ve glued it down.
#nerdlings #warhammer #40k #tyranids
Magenta carapaced trygon with teal claws The back of the magenta trygon, can see the broken statue on the base better from this angle. It’s in custodes colours. Not that I ever win against the bananas. Another shot of the trygon

I had to postpone the update post of last weeks 17 hour painting of the two days I had inbetween SMC and SPIEL.

This is the state of Argel Tal, as I entered it into Golden Demon and won a notable pin with.

Which is amazing, given how unrefined it is! 🥰

WIP picture of the heavily reposed Argel Tal I've been building and painting. The original model kit is produced and sold by Games Workshop / Forgeworld. I customized it with a Custodes Guardian Spear and a few random chaos bits and trinkets. The paintjob is held close to lore-accurate depictions following a "Horus Heresy Legions" card art (seen in another image within this post, which features a lot of saturated reds, with slightly orange leaning highlights and horns being black towards the tips with some fleshy mid tones in the blend toward those black ranges. The Eye lenses of the helmet, as well as the daemonic eyes on pauldron and thigh, are mainly greenwith a blend into yellow toward the center. The spear arm is painted in brown and beige hues, with fine vein details, stippled magenta details to create a sort of sore flesh and black, sharp-looking claws. The serrated sun sigill on the chest as well as the first steel nmm bits of the armor ar painted as such with greys and white as well as some color influences from the environment around the miniature, which is also indicated on thee basing of the plinth. It's photographed in front of neutral grey background and features a small sized low opacity version of the CryoCheese icon in the bottom left corner.

quis custodes custodiet?

Their solution to the "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" problem is if they create robots to guard them and serve them, they cannot be attacked by their own guards and servants
cargie.baby Cargie Weasel @cargie.baby · 14d
the tech guys just want to detach from humanity entirely. they do not want to ever pay, see, deal with, or have to interact with a human again. they want robot servants, self driving cars, robots to fuck. alone with robot staff in a bunker with nothing to do but post dank memes

Think I’ll call the hormagaunts done. A cheeky week long side quest.
Next in to the trygon base - think the AoS terrain piece will look good in custodes colours.
#nerdlings #warhammer #40k #tyranids
Some blue/teal carapace and pale purple skin hormagaunts. With red pokey bits. Magenta coloured trygon in the back with the start of the base texture.

good morning I'm mad about weird gaps in the Custodes model line again.

the dreadnought solution is "go buy this space marine model from horus hersey" and we have to buy special forge world versions of it for 2x the price if we want it to have "melee weapons"

Juvenal said “Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?” satirically, but it’s something that people who claim to be smart will never grasp. You are untrustworthy surveilling people becuase you chose to surveil, you have a motive and it’s probably not great.

California is preparing to send its own state observers to watch over federal monitors from President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice. The move underscores a growing standoff between state election officials and a federal government many voting rights advocates say is weaponizing oversight.
