Cis, he/him, father, science advocate, gamer, game maker, and hobbyist. I love creativity and all the mess that goes with it! Opinions are mine.
Working up a concept proof of my Warp Talon scheme for #HobbyStreak day 614, which is looking good so far! I am wondering if I should vary the claws though - I'd normally do a basic lightning, but should it be green for the warp-yness?

The Sanguinary Priest has a right-handed Narthecium and the Primaris Apothecaries seem to favour backpack mounted tools

Grabbed the opportunity and spraycoated my Warp Talons and their boss for #HobbyStreak day 613, then I spent my time experimenting with mutation schemes; I really want to get the daemonic element in so I think I'm going with something like this (poor test marine, he's been through a lot)

Gaining energy from the wonderful comments recently I powered through and finished my (ex)Atramentar Lord for #HobbyStreak day 612!
The huge skin cape was a problem, being too big to be a single hide and quite plain, so I tried to add stitching and a (mostly intentionally) rough legion tattoo

Base layers and shades all done for #HobbyStreak day 611, just final details to go!
September 23, 2026 at 8:39 AM
Picking at details and working on the base for #HobbyStreak Day 610 - for some reason I'm shying away from doing the steel on this mini
September 22, 2026 at 8:14 AM
Got the Lord all sprayed up and started on the armour layers for #HobbyStreak day 609... looks a little Thousand Sons at the moment 😆

Nothing as photogenic as yesterday for #HobbyStream day 608; did a little tidying of the desk and experimented with some EVA foam for basing textures.. it didn't go as I'd hope - more attempts planned! I did revisit my Atramentar Lord though to add some final details and prep him for spraying.

I think it's... done? The Little Monster may actually be finished for #HobbyStreak day 607! Painted in a bunch of details and spent ages just touching and retouching areas as they caught my eye, but I think I've hit the point of just fidgeting. Final step will be to varnish and get some beauty shots
September 19, 2026 at 7:32 AM
More layers of stuff on the base for #HobbyStreak day 606, which I think I've got to a good place now... it might be time for final details all over?
September 18, 2026 at 8:19 AM
Detour via the base for #HobbyStreak day 605 for a bit more fun splashing colours around
September 17, 2026 at 8:25 AM
Continuing to just have fun weathering and layering the Brigand for #HobbyStreak day 604, but I did also work on a few details to bring some life to it
September 16, 2026 at 8:37 AM
Having fun playing with colours and textures for #HobbyStreak day 603 - just a big cathartic mess
September 15, 2026 at 8:37 AM
What a weekend (derogatory) and today was a day when I could so easily have not hobbied, but it would have been the start of a series of excuses.
I shall not be stopped!
Starting to block in colours and textures on the Brigand for #HobbyStreak day 602
September 14, 2026 at 8:32 AM
What a disaster of a day. Managed to cobble together enough brain at the end to spraycoat the Brigand for #HobbyStreak day 601
It did pull together quite nicely though
September 13, 2026 at 7:12 AM
Much less exciting than I'd hope for #HobbyStreak day 600, but such is life; I think I've finished the base! I like the idea of this thing stalking through ruins after some horrible, Nurgly daemonic event, so I added touches of broken buildings as if the ground vomited something up
September 12, 2026 at 7:43 AM
Working on the basing detail for #HobbyStreak day 599; mostly just building up texture in the bald spots while starting to think about the narrative of it... No idea where it's headed at the moment
September 11, 2026 at 8:14 AM
Just having fun adding details for #HobbyStreak day 598!
September 10, 2026 at 6:57 AM
Figured out the melta-thing for #HobbyStreak day 597! Had to make some nifty little adjustments to get it fitted, but I can finally start detailing this silly beast
September 9, 2026 at 8:41 AM
Progress on what my brain has already dubbed, "the murder puffin", for #HobbyStreak day 596, although ultimately I hope it ends up more, "plague puffin".
Still need to figure out the melta situation before I get to detailing
September 8, 2026 at 7:09 AM
Starting to get a feel for the new Brigand's vibe which lead to spending #HobbyStreak day 595 adapting this spare "bit" as basing material.
I did some other gap filling etc... too, but way less interesting visually
September 7, 2026 at 7:42 AM
The chopping hath begun for #HobbyStreak day 594! Starting with cutting down the big cannon-thing, and ammo feeds, from the Dakkarig to fit the Onager weapon mount. Which pretty much confirms this will be a Brigand.
No idea where the giant melta will go. Figure that out after finishing gap filling
September 6, 2026 at 8:25 AM
Still in the playing-with-bits phase for #HobbyStreak day 593...
Now wait, hear me out!
September 5, 2026 at 8:20 AM
Started playing with bits for a new Wardog, which mostly meant an initial build of a Dakka Rig for #HobbyStreak day 592
Surprised how squat it is, but the torso looks tall enough to put guns at the right height (Khazad Doom for scale). I won't I get away with using it this stock though - lots to do!
September 4, 2026 at 7:31 AM
Got Wardog on the brain, but spent #HobbyStreak day 591 modifying the Praetor's cloak into something worthy of a Night Lord - needs more work, but I've got the shape of it now so maybe I can park it for a bit
