Unfortunately hobby activities will probably be put on hold for quite some time. I'll probably work on some stuff in the background, but I won't be posting hobby centric content until I'm free to do so again. Keep on getting those mini's painted and happy mother's day! ✌️ #WarhammerCommunity

Just hit Master Ball Tier on #PokemonChampions with this team. Was on a 5-Win Streak before clearing Ultra Ball Tier Rank 1. Still figuring things out with what I want a final version to look like, but I like the addition of Mega Beedrill for now.

Had an awesome time building a new PC for my sister-in-law for christmas after her cat shattered the glass on her current build. She very much deserves the upgrade after all the good she's done and all the shit she deals with on a regular basis. I made sure to allow room for upgrades in the future

If Metal and Shadow fused... on the Sega Saturn?!? #sonic #sonicthehedgehog #blender3d #sega #segasaturn #godotengine #godot #gamedev #indiedev #lowpoly

Seeing everyone getting their Switch 2 along with the games they want makes me want to jump out my door and buy one right now. However, I will not have access to it for several months in a couple of weeks. So I can't really justify it. Just know that I am jealous of all of you for this. #Switch2

So, this might be the last thing I paint before June 24th if I don't end up getting inspired by something. It was a fun commission, I'm glad I took it. #WarhammerCommunity #40k #Warhammer40k #ChaosSpaceMarines #CSM #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting #Commission

Just put the finishing touches on this Chronomancer commission. Was fun to paint Necrons for the first time, never had the oppoetunity to paint one before. #WarhammerCommunity #40k #Warhammer40k #Necrons #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting #Commission

This is your daily reminder to make a spreadsheet to keep track of all your models and how much you've actually painted. You don't need to keep track of the price like I do, that's just for insurance. I have so many things to paint 😱 #WarhammerCommunity #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

So, my wife and I played Spearhead for the first time. It did not go well for me. I threw 25 dice at her Kroxigor and only managed to scrape off 3 wounds. Her crackback was hurtful. We had fun. #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #Seraphon #MaggotkinOfNurgle #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

Are we painting 30 Poxwalkers this weekend? Yes, yes we are They're already primed, but I didn't take a picture. I want to knock out more of my Death Guard right now. Let's fucking go!!! #WarhammerCommunity #40k #Warhammer40k #DeathGuard #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

I don't have a lot to share today, but I was organizing my stuff and I realized I've never actually taken a photo of my army before. So here you go! A lot still needs paint, but we're getting there, slowly. #WarhammerCommunity #40k #Warhammer40k #DeathGuard #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

Didn't get much done with these flies today outside of the main bodies. A lot of surface area on these guys. At least the eyes came out the way I wanted them to. #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #MaggotkinOfNurgle #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

Feeling very creatively drained today for some reason after finishing this guy. I only have a few models left before I'm done with two Spearheads, but I can't motivate myself to continue today. #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #MaggotkinOfNurgle #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

Easily one of the coolest Death Guard models ever sculpted. I'm glad that people were able to get the Space Marine Heroes models in a Kill Team box, but I'm still gonna be a little salty that I bought the entire set before that Kill Team box released. Hindsight and all that. #WarhammerCommunity

So I got the Emperor's Children Army Box for my wife, and yes I did buy the Tomb Kings Starter Box. I'm really looking forward to getting paint on some new minis eventually. #WarhammerCommunity #40k #Warhammer40k #WarhammerTheOldWorld #EmperorsChildren #TombKings

I'm doing a commission style trade for some 3D Prints for a future project. My side of the trade is doing the trim on 20+ T-Sons models. I am so sorry for people who choose this army willingly. #WarhammerCommunity #40k #Warhammer40k #ThousandSons #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting #Commission

I was so close to getting these boys done today 😭 but my phone died so I didn't have background noise and working in silence isn't my kind of jam. #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #MaggotkinOfNurgle #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

I never posted the full 20 Khorne Berzerkers back when I finished them for a friend, but here they are. They were a pain in the ass to paint, but they look awesome all together. #WarhammerCommunity #Warhammer40k #Warhammer40000 #40k #WorldEaters #Khorne #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

When I originally did this idea for my Wardog I thought it was pretty good, but after working on some World Eaters I think I might have a better method for my next Wardog. When I get around to that one I think I'll be a little more aggressive with my application. #WarhammerCommunity

I enjoyed doing red armor again. After painting 20 Khorne Berzerkers previously the desire hasn't hit me for quite some time. The purple skin was interesting to do as well, not sold, but that's fine. #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #MaggotkinOfNurgle #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

Had a lot of fun doing this heavily verdigris bronze armor and pale purple skin. If I was planning on doing a cohesive army I'd probably do this since it took me such little time to do. #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #MaggotkinOfNurgle #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

I had a ton of fun painting one of the guys in my army I may have ended up painting another today 🫒 I couldn't help myself. I know I should be painting the Kroxigors, but we can deviate a little bit #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #MaggotkinOfNurgle #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

I've painted so much of my wife's stuff that I decided to paint something for myself, so here's a Lord of Plagues. Probably should have painted something for my spearhead though πŸ˜… #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #MaggotkinOfNurgle #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

Huh, 100 of y'all like my silly little tweets about my wardollies. I guess I should do something to celebrate. I never really thought 100 people would be interested in seeing my hobby journey. If y'all have any suggestions I guess let me know. I'm up to whatever. #WarhammerCommunity

I'm sure you guys are sick of seeing them at this point, but the finished squad of Saurus Warriors sits happily on my wife's desk now. Finally, I can put all my effort into those Kroxigors. Very excited! #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #Seraphon #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

I already did a test model for the Kroxigors a little while ago and I've been wanting to get to them sooner, but the 10 Saurus Warriors took priority since there were so many of them. #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #Seraphon #WIP #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting

It's an absolute shame that the classic Lord of Contagion model is totally unavailable to purchase. It's so much better than the Lord Felthius model that technically replaces this one. Even Games Workshop agrees since this model is still the model representative on the app. #WarhammerCommunity

Got my hands on some Monument Hobbies spray can varnish, just to try it out. Left (Unvarnished), Right (Varnished). The change is subtle, but it is there. Was an absolute breeze to use as well. Highly recommend if you like that ultra matte look. #WarhammerCommunity #Warhammer40k #MonumentHobbies

A fun little comparison of the evolution of my wife's colorscheme. On the left is the new scheme and on the right is the old scheme. I definitely think the new theme fits her vision much more. #WarhammerCommunity #AoS #AgeOfSigmar #PaintingWarhammer #MiniaturePainting #WarhammerFantasy
