Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 17hKelsey surprised me last night after a long day with a little treat she found me at the used bookstore. Plays great so far! 040
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Thank you! These are some of my personal favorite IS mechs as well! 000
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Got to play my first Draconis Reach game last night with my merc band Devil's Due, so lets have a TBT to when I painted them up way before I had my current backdrops and lighting setup. (Should really take new photos of them...) 3364

Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Battle For the Castle, by Elizabeth Winthrop. Kids go into a magical fantasy castle land only to find it being INVADED BY MURDEROUS SWARMS OF FLESH EATING RATS. I spent every night for who knows how long imaging rats crawling under my blankets to eat me from the feet up. 020
Reposted by Shades⚧ Valeria Versus ☄ @versusrev.bsky.social · 04/10/2026For #Mechtober Day 2, the theme is my main force, the SLDF! I painted a battalion of the ilKhan's newest army, including a Hunchback IIC for Waylan "Wolf-Wolf" of the Chicago Division. His lore continued in thread. @battletech.bsky.social #battletech #mechwarrior #ttrpg #minipainting #miniatures 19214
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 04/10/202623 - The Stand by Stephen King. A *48 hour long* audiobook! A massive, sprawling story about a plague that ends the world and the supernaturally influenced tale of the survivors. Has the Raiders problem where the heroes presence has nothing to do with the plot resolution, but otherwise solid! 4/5⭐️ 000
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 04/10/202622 (shh, these have always been numbered) - Incidents Around The House by Josh Malerman. A little girl's supposedly imaginary friend Other Mommy begins to seem more real and much more threatening. Effectively creepy, built paranoid tension really well, ending was sort of a failure for me. 3/5⭐️ 100

Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I really need to connect with some Netrunner people in my area. I've played since the FFG days but all my fellow players have moved or gotten sucked down the magic black hole. 150
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 02/10/2026According to all the news articles of my young adulthood this I am destroying the universe by eating this. 160
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Within the same ten minutes my partner has called me both "God's Silliest Boy" and "A Villain Amongst Men" so I feel I must be walking a very strange path through the world. 😂 050
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Also legitimately I cannot post any of the Trench Crusade Court minis I just finished on my Instagram because my actual mother follows that account and these minis would genuinely give her nightmares 😅 2160
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 30/09/2026A Triumvirate of Pride demons for Trench Crusade. The Praetor and its TEETH, the Hunter of the Left Hand Path and its EYES, and the Sorceror and its LEVITATING INTESTINE SNAKE DICK THING. 0293
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Thank you! That's really high praise and I can't wait to see what you come up with! 😊 010

Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Thanks! I am very new to the Court but I am really enjoying Pride so far as a subfaction. 010

Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Thanks! They are a kit I bought from an Etsy seller called MysticPrintz. Their name for it is "Gravefront Ghoul Wretched" but the item description does say the stl was designed by a place called Diceverse. 121

Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Or that I misspelled Farrell twice when it was in the picture lol 000
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Haha fair fair, but Freaky Friday would be improved by the addition of a Battletech subplot. 🤣🤣 110
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I'm 90% sure it's mixing you up with @detocroix.bsky.social. 100
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 28/09/2026It bothers me *so fucking much* that they put Jamie Foxx's name on Colin Farrel and Colin Farrel's name on Jamie Foxx. Just switch them! What are you doing? Or mirror the photo or something. Anything but this. 240
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Went to a local performance of Much Ado About Nothing tonight since one of my friends is in the cast. But then we got here and it turns out I know the director and like 4 other people in the cast and had no idea any of them would be here 😅 060

Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Sadly, I lost my Zero Company Beskar save and am starting over. But I'm really happy with the revisions I've made to my Hawks. Headcanon wise he is the child of a twilek and a human so he has eyebrows and freckles, and I'm intentionally keeping clothes for Zcom very casual until *plot* happens. 160
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 26/09/2026TEETH. TEETH. TEETH. TEETH. (I'm pretty sure painting this Trench Crusade Praetor has had no effect on my sanity.) 0411
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Thank you! 😁 this has all been a big experiment/learning experience for me so I'm really glad it seems to have worked! 010
Shades @agentshades.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Another member of my Court of the Seven Headed Serpent warband for #trenchcrusade - a sorceror. Eventually I'll get real photos of all these in the lightbox but for now you get the fresh from the workbench version 😅 1285
