My work laptop has these tiny page up/down buttons crammed around the cursor keys. I keep hitting them by mistake and giving myself a heart attack when all my text on screen changes 🤦🏻‍♂️ #FirstWorldProblems

I can say I've painted a mini with tone pro. It was a really cool experience trying out the new paint, if you have any questions, ask below and I can try to answer as best as I can from my time with it. #warhammer #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings #wepaintminis

Time for some new earcups. Last time I accidentally ordered the wrong colour from the Bose website but I ended up liking the contrast. This time I've gone for a third party option so we'll see how those go.

Day 22 of the ole #HobbyStreak. I'd been putting off painting the skin on the troll because I wasn't sure what colour I wanted it to be. Took the plunge today with the light blue I have and it looks pretty good. I also started batch painting the gold armour on the Tomb Kings.

I finished blocking in the base colours on this poor fellow for #HobbyStreak day 21. He's so bundled up it was tricky to figure out which bits were which to begin with. I think he's the weakest part of the sculpt tbh, if I got another troll I'd look for a different model.
A Goblin held in the massive hand of a troll, his limbs flailing in all directions. He has a large yellow moon medallion on his chest and is carrying an orange ball that is bigger than his head.

#HobbyStreak day 13! I put the base colours on this Tomb Guardian. I need to do his face but I don't think I have the colour I want. I think I'll grab something off the top end of the Army Painter's desaturated cool green gradient. That'll look appropriately putrid.

They're coming back pretty well. This was after a couple of hours of soaking and then a good scrub with a toothbrush. I've put them all back to soak for longer and will finish the job this evening. Messy!
