I've got about half of the refueling station assembled. I hope to get more assembled. Tonight I've got a date night with my lovely lady. Tonight is a fun nostalgia movie date downtown. Live music, dinner. Maybe we can drop it ballots off on the way to our evening plans...

Well, we got our ballots in the mail today. Time to review the voters guide. More for nuance than anything else. Believe me when I say that we fully understand the assignment. I've been waiting LITERALLY MONTHS for this moment.

I've got half of the refueling station assembled. The storage tank is fiddly. I do like the idea of it being modular. You could make one BIG storage tank. They are a bit too fiddly however. I want to spend time this weekend painting my Necromunda gang. #necromunda

Well I've gotten most of the bigger stuff from my starter box assembled. I don't need the ammo boxes or control panels. Not immediately. Next up either: hive days stack cluster, platforms and stairs, factory pipes, refueling station. Maybe refueling or stairs? #necromunda

Well fuck. I have a week. 1 week. To finish my Corpse Grinder Cult figures. Or as much as possible and as much Necromunda terrain as I can. Then we begin our games at the FLGS. I wonder if I can snip and glue things together during meetings at work. Don't see it happening. I'll do my best.

So I bought lunch yesterday. I decided to get food from this fish and chips place. I want to support local businesses. The chowder was great. Fish & fried clams, fries, coleslaw. $35 including tip. Specialty place. More than fast food, not by much though. You know what? I can't do that price tag.

Went to the store and had a learner game of Necromunda. Unofficially, I technically won. One juve was 'out of action', captured and then executed. Two others seriously wounded. Chaos Spawn was not dropped 'out of action', thankfully. I did some stuff right, and other stuff wrong. #necromunda

Well I got my Corpse Grinder Cult figures primed. Gonna be a bit of an ordeal with the sub-assembly. Time consuming until it's not. Overhead. I can funtac the torso to the bases for the learner game that's planned.

I hate when figures have three connection points. You know the type, when they are stereotypically holding a weapon or something directly in front of their own chest. Why do I hate myself. I usually insist on doing them as a sub-assembly.

For the first time in weeks if not months. I got some hobby work done. For some fellows glued together and one of them primed. I'll get another two glued together tomorrow. I have plans to do a practice/learner game this week. #necromunda

Made some Chinese pork belly. It turned out good. Could have broiled it for a smidge less, you can see a tiny bit of blackening. But it had an incredible crunch. I might do a flavor brine next time. Very succulent, incredible crunch, remarkably juicy and delicious. #chineseporkbelly #porkbelly

I need an intervention. I have plenty I need to finish. I've got an army for flesh eater courts, gloomspite gitz, votann, in progress. I have two necromunda gangs also in progress, a corpse grinder cult and an ash wastes war band. And trench crusade! I don't need star craft starter pack figures.

Made some pizza on national pepperoni pizza day. Turned out well. Hopefully the dough will rise better when I make another batch later-ish this week. #pizza #detroitpizza

Reposting my Gitarri separate from the comp entry. Hard at work on my #nerdlings entry atm so I won't have much to share until the end of the month. Very happy with this kitbash 😊 #warhammercommunity #miniaturepainting #minipainting #paintingminiatures #gloomspitegitz
A kitbash of a gloomspite git and an ad mech dominus. Covered with musbrooms and with a large moon on the end of the staff and servo moon replacing the skull.

Painted with bright red cloak, green skin and liquids in the vials. Some blue plasma osl on the weapon. Mix of metallics all over and a dusty red base. Side view so you can see the plasma gun better. Back view. Not much to say here. Close up of the moon on the staff. Rough sketchy transition from dark red/brown to a bright warm yellow. The eye is white and red with a black pupil. Covered with blue green and orange musbrooms.

Did some cooking last night. Made some braised Shanghai pork belly. Served over rice. It turned out pretty good. I wish the sauce was thicker, stickier. Maybe have it cling to the pork belly more. Add some vegetables, etc. #porkbelly

I tear gassed my lovely girlfriend this weekend. Unintentionally. I was reducing my onion slices and was wanting to caramelize them. While they were reducing down they aerosolized and my poor GF was crying and having her eyes water. The entire house was fumigated and smelled like onions.

This weekend's plans: 1) Make another batch of French Onion soup. This gets portioned and frozen. 2) Apply technical paint for blood effects and viscera. 3) Get vaccination boosters. 4) Do legwork and research on the new hire. Correlate notes for mentoring and onboarding. Lessons learned, etc.
A large Dutch Oven filled with onion slices.5lbs+ of sliced onions, reduced down to maybe over a cup in volume and caramelized to a chocolate color. A large soup bowl. Covered in melted cheese. With homemade croutons poking from the cheese. With a slight formation of char dappled across the cheese surface.

Today is frustrating. Due to work process and policy bullshit. Nothing I can't deal with, but frustrating nevertheless. I really need to invest some time in finishing up painting some stuff.

I am frustrated. Angry even. I feel like AzureDevOps is so convoluted and Byzantine. I am adversely impacting coworkers with my questions. I wonder if there's a book or decent online curriculum for ADO. There's always YouTube certs. But apparently a fair bit is their (work's) own construction. 🤬

I need some help. Anyone know of any Necromunda guides? 1) I'm looking for gang guides. Because I don't think I'm confident in my choices. 2) I'm also looking for advice or guides on running a campaign or acting as an Arbitrator. #necromunda

Applied some base coats to some figures. Planning on having a juve fully base coated today. Expect pictures if I have time later. Replanted my Thai Basil that keeps dying. I can get it to sprout. But it can never grow past that and I have no idea why.

Later yesterday evening, I got my package from GW. So I'm putting together some guys with hand flamers and a heavy flamer. I want to read some weapon specs before I equip other things. I've got 2 figures to prime today. I need to read some rules, but the street date is this weekend? #necromunda

Do you hate people? Who hurt you? Why did they sculpt freaking EYELIDS onto the eye lenses for this Corpse Grinder Cult figure? For this God damn mask! Why are they as thin as a gnat's whisker? Boots, done, contrast snakebite leather. I'm saving my spoons for the scrubs and metals. #necromunda

Applied some skin tone contrast. I'll be going through the items and materials on the cutters for my Corpse Grinder Cult figures. Might do some work on the helmets. I really should double check the color scheme. Teal, bronze, steel, fleshtone, fresh blood. Bases are minimally painted & ready.

Goal for today: 1) assemble as many Corpse Grinder Cult figures as I can. Prime if possible. 2) finish ambot base. 3) check mail for CGC upgrade kit. I spoke with the guy that might be running the campaign. They said we could possibly house rule some of the Ash Wastes Nomads rules. #necromunda

I am 99% done with my Necromunda robot. Officially a 'Luther Pattern Excavation Automata "Ambot"'. I'm proud of the lenses. I'm not happy with the hazard stripes, but I'll live with it. Next up the base. Then some corpse grinder cult members. Maybe some terrain if need a break. #necromunda

Anyone with Necromunda knowledge out there? So for the new edition, there are swanky gang boxes coming out. Base gang, some specialists, or pets, brutes, those flying skiffs from Van Saar, etc. Anyone know the equivalent models for a Corpse Grinder Cult by any chance? #necromunda

I just used my wow stick / drill pen as a deburring tool. Fuck I hate working with resin. It's so crisp and holds detail remarkably well. But it's a PITA to assemble.

Someone's I wonder if I hate myself. I'm working on the Chieftain with Venom Caster. 1) it's resin, despite being crisp detail, isn't great. 2) I really strongly feel like I should do this as a sub-assembly. But it could be that GW hates their customers.

Done with the road trip. Kinda of beaten up after not being able to sleep well and having terrible posture in the car for 4+ days. I've got some fun photos. It was brutally hot. There was some smoke as well from some fires. It was 111° for a little bit, I took a picture of it being 109°.

Necromunda. I need to work on some gang members. My FLGS is going to be running a campaign. I need to do more painting for my Ash Waste Nomads. I'm curious about heavies or brutes. I'm both excited and apprehensive about some rules changes.

I went to the Bellevue Arts and Crafts Fair this year. I have to say it's changed over the years. There were less people. I feel like with the new skyscraper, where World Imports was located. There were fewer vendors and booths. Fewer food trucks. I adore fair food.

I have plane tickets for the 29th. I'm looking forward to this. But also not at the same time. When my father passed away, we had to leave the car there with a neighbor. Now circumstances are requiring me to fly down and drive the car back home. An unplanned expensive road trip.

I made some kimchi. I need to buy some airlock valves. We had company over for a little while. A friend of the GF. Who taught me how to make a Thai dish; Swimming Rama. That peanut sauce will come in handy for things like satay and other dishes. Hoping to make progress painting figures tonight.

I did some cooking. I also had to use every large or large-ish mixing bowl in the house. For 1 1/2 Napa cabbages. It's going to ferment for around 3 days. 2 jars are going to a friend. I wonder how easy it is or long it takes to grow Napa cabbages. #kimchi #ferment #pickling

I made some progress on my necromunda figures. I've been bluntly struggling with motivation to do anything. I use whatever son's I have for work, dinner or obligatory house projects. Very little brings me any kind of fulfillment lately. I know it's temporary. But it's gutting all the same.

I have got to get my ass in gear for some painting. July 29th, the Carcass Front from Trench Crusade should be on shelves. I preordered my copy. Both warbands are looking fantastic. The Heretic Naval Raiders or Sacred Affliction. Which warband should I work on? #trenchcrusade #carcassfront

Really happy for the AOS Ogre players. With a new range refresh. I question some of the aesthetics and those choices. Some of it is not for me. But other parts I think are fine. They need it. Curious what gets retired and what is new.

The GF messaged me late last week. Informing me of a Ooni Pizza Oven on Facebook marketplace. I picked it up with little hesitation. I make some pizza with it. It's a Karu 12 1st Gen. I did have trouble getting it blisteringly hot the first go. After cleaning the fuel bin of ash, it was blazing.

Silly how excited I am about this absolutely mundane purchase. I have a coffee/spice grinder arriving today. I'm going to be making my own Chinese Five Spice blend. I need to buy a SACK of garlic cloves. I've got a mandolin slicer. Oven can dehydrate stuff. I want to make my own Chili Crisp.
