One more miniature before I go to Dragonmeet. This one's a Morokanth trader for RuneQuest, on the lookout for a bargain.

If I get some painting time next week, he'll have a friend to accompany him, looking for some BIG bargains.

You can get him from @fenrisgames.com

What I did today: a shrine to Eurmal the Trickster, for RuneQuest.

The model is from @fenrispublishing.bsky.social & the rabbit is from @badsquirtle.bsky.social. If the fact that I put in a bunny bugs you, of course you realise this means war.

I put some descriptive words in the Alt text.

Heresy Miniatures make some really great miniatures, especially the monsters and the gangs.

Plus, Andy's great to deal with. You can't go wrong!

Unless you're worried about too many more miniatures too paint. But that's a problem for Tomorrow You, right, and who cares about them?
Some more things you can get up to 33% off tonight! And £5 extra off if you spend £50, using code TAKE5OFF

Arella Silversong, one of the PCs in our RuneQuest game; an initiate of Yelorna.

Just finished painting it and the light has gone so I'll do the neatening up when we have decent daylight.

It's a Bronze Age miniature, from @fenrispublishing.bsky.social

If you've picked up these games and want some official adventures to go with them, then there's four full Reports to pick up, as well as a couple of short encounters and a Star Trek-inspired supplement.

They're written for TDP but compatible with Pressure.

I just stuck an order in to fill out my painting queue of ghouls and other gribbly things.

Heresy Miniatures make some great monsters, and Andy's always a pleasure to deal with.

Definitely worth buying some if you like to paint tiny gribbly monsters.
Woke up early cos i had a nightmare that I had a library book about vampires that was overdue by three years and the fine was going to be enormous. Anway, £900 to find for rent tomorrow, so please place an order!

Gender-affirming care saves lives
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

If you're going to #Dragonmeet and like miniature skirmish games with some soul to them, you won't do better than giving yourself the pleasure of checking out what Will and Forbidden Psalm have to offer...
@jogbrogzin.bsky.social did this wonderful map to help you find me at Dragonmeet this coming weekend.

when we say “Glorantha is mean to be Bronze Age” this is what we mean.

I've had the fellow with the staff sitting there half painted for ages. I really should get around to finishing him.

Another gribbly @fenrisgames.com undead! I’m ripping through these way faster that usual, I think because there are more washes and stippling than my usual style. 2 more to go and I‘m onto the bosses. I added yellow flowers for a splash of colour.

They are superhumanly strong and noxious-smelling, having no eyes but instead a mass of pink tentacles at the end of their snout. Moonbeasts are also said to like the films of Richard Curtis, projected on the sails of their black ships but without any soundtrack.

Ineffable and back in the shop now!

This is what I was working on. Dancers In Darkness, for RuneQuest. Vampire ladies wafting around in gowns as they do.
These ones are from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social

The camera has exaggerated some of the shading and made it look a bit harsh. Some tidying up to do, but it's so very gloomy today.
