Hello! I put together a basic 'So You've Left Hobby Twitter' starter pack for new joiners to Bluesky who maybe feel a bit lost. It's not exhaustive but should be enough to get a complete beginner started with a mix of content creators, writers and hobbyists. Please share around

I'm halfway through painting my Mantic frost giant, when I'm done I'll do another comparison post :D

They're out on the galactic rim, almost destroyed by a hivefleet, saved by a space-faring titan, which they saw as a saviour sent by the omnissiah and changed their heraldry to honour it
