'London Fog' - Halloween 2016. Got up really goddamn early to snap this (was staying by Tower Bridge for a comic con). London is weird when the streets are empty. For spooky vibes, go and listen to The Lillingtons song by the same name, it rips. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKLS...

Tower Bridge, London, on a very foggy October morning, sepia toned.

Some pics from a visit to the John Rylands Library, Manchester, earlier in the year. I love haunting old libraries, and I got a lovely tote bag from the shop. #librarylife #oldbooksmell

Index cabinets, shelving and lights in the John Rylands library, warm wood tones and lighting.

This brings back memories - those backpacks had a very particular vinyl smell to them.

I'm a big fan of the 'marine juice' approach, currently using equal parts dark tone, sepia tone and medium - as it gives great results on most minis. It does add a bit of brown/red warmth though, so not purely black. The AP washes do mix well though, so it's fun to experiment.

Dark tone with a tiny dab of speedpaint medium to improve the flow works wonders as a nuln oil replacement (strong tone being the agrax earthshade equivalent).

Definitely prefer the earlier ones - I picked up a squad of 5 on ebay recently, as never had scorpions back in the day (despite collecting eldar). Felt like it was time. Will probably just use them as storm guardians in kill team.

Just grabbed this via bandcamp! Black Goat of the Woods provided an amazing soundtrack for a recent D&D session.

I'm kind of ashamed i've never heard of this game until now, very much my ballpark (and how I'm going to spend my Saturday).

Transformers the movie was great on the big screen. 90 minutes of nostalgia, laser gun noises and 80s rock (and a truly odd Weird Al number). Experience marred only by the child in front asking constant questions. 'Do robots turn grey when they die?' 'YES TIMMY, NOW LET ME GRIEVE'.

Pixie Pink is one of those colours you have to buy just based on the name alone - see also Diabolic Plum and Spellbound Fuchsia. The Army Painter pinks and purples have the best names.

Loving the textures on this so far, very gritty but the greens and browns pop nicely.

AnalogPhantom @analogphantom.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Is this is getting carried away, then please continue - that is some serious gaming bling.

It's the best month for being outside, buying clothes, and general vibes. All things which I usually fail at.

As always, shout out to @lokebattlemats.bsky.social for making amazing map books, they are the best thing I ever bought for D&D.

Fun session yesterday - ran for over 8 hours as the players cleared the entire facility hidden deep in the woods (10 maps/areas in total) - the party took out the crazy Doktor and the mother brain boss. Very satisfying end to a three part arc. #dungeonsanddragons #gamingsession

Milo the goblin scouts ahead, approaching a door he probably should not open...

A cultist goon prepares to cull a laboratory abomination - which has clearly eaten too many dodgy meat pies.

Zero the old man warlock gets way too close and personal with an extra-dimensional brain beast, and somehow lives to tell the tale.

Dana the plague doctor rogue and her familiar Timothy listen closely to a dungeon door, revealing a dodgy cultist on the other side.

Bit of a last minute job before today's session - but the brain inna jar came out ok. #miniaturepainting #paintingminis #dungeonsanddragons

Chipping away at a mad scientist and his creations for a D&D session next weekend. The party will be investigating 'The Facility'. #miniaturepainting #paintingminis #dungeonsanddragons

A mad scientist mini by Reaper, holding aloft a bottle of a very suspicious liquid. It's probably fizzy lime pop, or something equally vile.

A hive warden by Reaper Miniatures, he wants to give you a very clammy hug.

If it helps, me and my friends are of the same age group and everyone I linked the comic to said it felt very accurate. We still wake up at night in a cold sweat, afraid of being called a selll out. Generational baggage.

Fresh off the table this week, some 'intellect crawlers' and Stargrave automatons. The crawlers have already been dubbed 'sentient ballsacks' - so that's fun. #miniaturepainting #paintingminis #stargrave

Intellect crawler misnurtures from the Forged Terrain, painted glossy pink and based - one has very pointy teeth and wishes to bite you.
