Yes it's political, everything is political.
Sometimes if I wonder whether I am being too much of a purist with my era specificity in models. Is it really such a crime to have a 6th edition cannon in a 4th edition army? Do I need those very specific weapon parts?

Yes. Yes it is.

Shit, at least I get a reformation of Nevermore that sounds sick with a vocalist who does justice to Warrell's legacy.

Every day it's another horror to make you want to leap. Or stay in bed. Shit's a real struggle mentally, emotionally, and I'm still living in relative comfort in my little south pacific hideaway.

Neat! Looking forward to building a French force, I really like this period technologically. This makes Monday a bit nicer for sure #flamesofwar #miniaturewargaming

Me: after 2 months of 6mm, I need to paint a nice, easy, simple army.

Also me: 5 different colour schemes on the most detail cluttered miniatures of the era, that sounds fine.

I am dumb.

Trying to decide what palate cleanser I want to paint next. I feel like I should paint some of my vintage 90s stuff, but I might just have to do the all plastic Grey Knights so I can enjoy the simplicity of metallics.

Another barrage of mid-tier photos but it's a second EPIC army completed for the year, this time my Orks. Much like my Tyranids, I have a ton of models left I can add (and I forgot to include my Slasha Gargant), but this is plenty for now #oldhammer #epic40k

Ah the inevitable "you need to start getting familiar with AI tools" talk. I have been anticipating this and I am glad I only mildly showed my immense loathing.

I don't know how modern 40k players play it with how fucking boring the tables are. I just saw a photo of a decent tournament - 25 identical tables. Comp wargaming is just the worst form of wargaming for me.

I wish people were OK with not liking the music in video games. I have been super enjoying #Warframe, but it feels like I need to be sycophantic about their songs to not get looked down on. Was even worse with #FFXIV. Let people discuss without lying, be OK with different tastes. That's art.

Just spent NZ$440 on some on sprue models from 1990. Sounds like a lot. But then I look at Legions Imperialis battle forces costing that much for fewer models and I'm like no, no, this is perfectly fine as a price point, and I much prefer little biker dwarves.

My post-Christmas end of year army is done in very speedy fashion. I enjoyed trusting the process and pushing simple contrast on these very small Epic miniatures for use in 2e Epic/NetEpic as Hive Fleet Behemoth. Now I need to paint some blue lads to fight #epic40k #oldhammer #miniaturewargaming

2 minutes left in 2025. Fuck 2025. I need some sleep.

How the hell am I meant to hold these while painting?? Just gotta wait 24 hours to cure? Nitrile gloves? Real bastards to work on.
December 31, 2025 at 3:05 AM
Much better! From horrible initial tones to a suitably garish EPIC scale oddity.
December 29, 2025 at 10:45 PM
I feel like this model is my prime example of "trust the process". All the detail of a modern Tyranid only at a fraction of the scale.

That will be a wrap on the #oldhammmer #spacewolves for now. 2000pts constructed for 2e, still have some characters and Long Fangs but I need a bit of a break from baby blue nightmares #miniaturewargaming

Christmas Day marks one year without Dad. Fucking sucks, but so we move forward. Eating yourself into a coma helps.
December 25, 2025 at 2:41 AM
Still haven't decided on my summer project. It won't be a vintage army, since I'm finishing up my Space Wolves first (hopefully before Christmas?). So that leaves middlehammer Grey Knights, Flames of War Finns, Tomb Kings, or Warriors of Chaos. Oh, I guess Battletech too? Decision paralysis.

People need to stop painting Space Marines as the fucking heroic good guys holy shit
December 12, 2025 at 3:31 AM
Took way longer than I hoped, but its a good chunk of points at least! It's a very protracted process for this scheme, but I continue to find it very rewarding #oldhammer #spacewolves #miniaturewargaming

Settra does not serve? No, I think Settra served pretty hard in this one, Nagash is just a hater.
