Finally got the parts I need for my traitor salamander librarian. The higher up leaders all have discarded armour plates for "lore" reasons. Haven't come up with his yet. Preator got multimeltaed to the face, champion has a demonic hammer that burns off armour... #horusheresy #warhammer #nerdlings

My pride of the legion army from first, fully updated for 3rd edition finally. The leaders still need decals and detail work done but I'm happy with how they are, save for the levi maybe. #horusheresy #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings #paintingminis

Do transfer sheets expire? Mine from the mid Horus Heresy black book days curled up real bad. But my AL is back up to 2k points. #horusheresy #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings #paintingminis

Had a fever dream of peach and red marines last night. So logically, fever still intact, I went to @magicstronghold.com to find metallic peach paint, because if anyone has it, it's them. #warhammer40k #paintingminis #paintingwarhammer #feverdream

Organized my fallout minis tonight. No I won't be finishing the old WW starter. And don't ask a fallout fan about their unpainted Skyrim minis. Mega and Prototron were for my fallout 2D20 game. #minipainting #nerdlings #falloutfactions #falloutWW

Painted up my 3d printed Vatican gang for carnevale. May do some more before I varnish, undecided. Went with a simple tabletop ready look, nothing fancy. #paintingminis #nerdlings #carnevale

Oh shit it's the anniversary of Robin Williams death. Therefore also sans a few days the anniversary of my cancer diagnosis. I don't know why but I cried more when I heard he killed himself then when I was diagnosed. Also my grandmother died around the same time. Bad times, all behind me now though.

My 1k germans are done for Konflikt 47. Now I gotta paint 1k worth of murricans and some terrain. Honestly the starting box with the intro box, is a damn good deal, if you don't mind the cutout spider tank, I just bought another because. #nerdlings #minipainting #konflikt47 @warlordgames.com

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Painted up my forces of the green vault for Konflikt 47. Did a real basic tabletop ready, but I'm only halfway done. Bases, details, fausts, stuff like that, will be tomorrow. These minis are great, detailed no stupid gubbins. #minipainting #nerdlings #konflikt47

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

Built almost 1000 points of (not)Nazis in power armour for Konflikt 47. Leader was built yesterday and finishing the second spider tank tomorrow. Vogelspinne legs are a pain to pose. #nerdlings #konflikt47 @warlordgames.com

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

Did my range troopers with eidelweisses on their coats in one sitting. Not counting the bases. Quite happy with these. #paintingminis #nerdlings #starwarslegion

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

Painted up some lovely kobolds by @warpminiatures.bsky.social tonight. Had a blast with making them colourful and silly posed. #paintingminis #nerdlings #onepagerules Not sure if that last ones a real hashtag.

My media library external USB got it's partitions corrupted. Assembling all my USBs and going to pester my father for his USBs to hopefully make enough space to copy it all. Sucks not having my plex server up with all my obscure ass old anime and even more obscure horror movies.

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 07/06/2026

Hung out with a buddy and did some painting while watching colour out of space and the classic, tremors 2. Everything but Reva and the dead rider were done in the one sitting. From priming to basing. Just aimed for tabletop standard with these. #minipainting #malifaux #nerdlings

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 01/06/2026

So I was about to go to my usual site to download Iron Lung to watch it, and then thought. No Hollywood monster of a human being is getting a cut out of it. The money will go back to similar projects most likely. So I bought it on youtube. I haven't purchased a movie in like 5 years at least.

Been showing an online friend the glory of The Protomen, and tonight we are jamming to the third act. EVERY time I listen to this album I find more and more that I love.

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

Finally finished my laat/le save for panel lining, as I lack the Gundam stuff. The streaks of "wind" should be blue in hindsight. But I think I'm going to redo all the bases like this. Make them as floral as I can. To really sell the theme.

072

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

Finished my chaos knights. If anyone gets the leftmost conversion, you are awesome. Why did I try a shortcut on the big guy, gg no re. Haven't decided what's going on with the tabards, the dreaded free handing maybe. #minipainting #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings #horusheresy

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 16/04/2026

My floral empire gets their special forces done. The flowers on their helms are meant to be poppies. Need new texture paste to do the bases as my ak stuff went rock solid. All that's left is range troopers, eidelweiss, and the LAAT/LE, wind. #paintingminis #nerdlings #starwarslegion

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

Taught a buddy how to play warmachine today. I printed him a 30 point army and all that to start a journeyman league with me. I realized my warcaster is where my arc node should be, and he is way to far forward. Massive misplay. Was still a total blast. #warmachine #nerdlings #miniatures

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 29/03/2026

Made some progress on my floral empires commander and operative. About half do e I think, not counting the bases I'm redoing on all my empire minis. Gladiolus on the leader, and nastuitium on the operative. #nerdlings #starwarslegion #paintingminis

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

Not 100% happy on how he turned out, but done enough for the first decimator, venti. The phyrexian text SHOULD say, BOOM on gun arm and Crush on fist. #paintingminis #horusheresy #nerdlings #warhammer

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 07/03/2026

1AM looking at mead making videos, and I come up with an idea. Well I guess I'm starting a new batch of something very unique come the end of the month. The first part will be making a Bochet style mead with some of the local honey. The second part is where I get sneaksy. #homebrewing

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

Painted an artisans guild mini tonight. I love painting cheesecake minis. Lots of practice on skin tones and round surfaces, went with a purple skin as the mini has a mindflayer option. Not sure what to do with her staff didn't want a wood colour. #nerdlings #paintingminis

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 01/03/2026

Gotta work on spacing and legibility. But that's what the final looks will be like. Got a better white paint and micronpen. Phyrexian text says crowd ctrl. #paintingminis #horusheresy #nerdlings #warhammer

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 25/02/2026

Dark mech paint scheme decided. They will be possessed by the scrap code of the grand unifier. Elesh Norn themed cybernetics, my bestie gave me the idea. My first thought for the electro priests is that they are scrap code infected, like badly. #horusheresy #nerdlings #paintingminis #warhammer

0141

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

My dark mech archmagos, double base, and the two magos. Now I gotta figure out a cheap way to make 4 regular tech priests, I'm thinking of doing normal skitarii geared up. Just handwaving it off because screw the prices of 4 tech priests. Still no paint scheme. #horusheresy #nerdlings

050

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

Decimator 1, roundboi and 2, codename still in development. They will be my traitor mechanicum's decimators. Still haven't come up with a paint scheme for them either. #horusheresy #nerdlings

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

My decimator conversion 1/2. He sorta looks like he skips leg day. Not sure how to deal with the torso gap. The second one will be truely monstrous. #horusheresy #nerdlings

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

People are posting their progress over the years, I don't really have easy access to older stuff, but here is some minis from a kickstarter and one kitbash, that I painted like 5+ years ago. #nerdlings #paintingminis

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

My Custodes force so far. Out of glue so I can't assemble what's been bought/printed to add to it. But this is this month's progress on this. Also if anyone knows how to rip parts of 3d models to make printable versions of let me know. #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings #minipainting #horusheresy

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 11/02/2026

Fixed up the kobolds face and such still not 100% happy but next time I will see about getting her printed full size. Also printing some Custodes next. #nerdlings #paintingminis

081

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 09/02/2026

Not super happy with how this kobold came out. It's 25% scale, so some of the cooler details are totally missing. Tried putting on some paint and feathering it out but I think my brush was just too wet and it blended too roughly. Going to try to readd depth once she stands. #minipainting #nerdlings

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 22/01/2026

Had a blast with malifaux today. Our beaters duked it out and the leaders cleaned up the mess. I feel my painting has been subpar lately. Need to work on the quality with the speed. Now with properly spelled # #minipainting #nerdlings #malifaux

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 21/01/2026

Did some painting today and yesterday to get these finished. Think I may add some fluorescent yellow to the glowy orbs. They aren't fully done but done enough to not worry about them being in "the pile of shame." #nerdlings #paintingminis #warmachine

021

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 18/01/2026

Finished up my cryx box that a buddy got me for xmas, last year. I think I gotta do a lot of work on the warcaster still. But done enough to not be ashamed. #paintingminis #nerdlings #warmachine

081

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 12/01/2026

Did most of the work on my whiskey golem tonight. Gotta add snow still due to an unfortunate varnish incident making my trichi snow themed. #malifaux #paintingminis #nerdlings

091

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 09/01/2026

Finished up my BoS and gorgons in one night. They would have been done on new years but tummy aches and laziness are strong foes. #nerdlings #falloutfactions #paintingminis

0121

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 23/12/2025

Painted up my Mr.Medic for my fallout factions BoS. He's still got some work to be done. But I'm mostly happy with him.

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

Finally kicked depressions ass and did some mini painting. Speeders bikes for my floral gold and black empire for legion. Finished my mousling diorama and even still have more mouslings to spare. #nerdlings #paintingminis #starwarslegion

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 17/10/2025

Went down to the locker to get my squats for Horus heresy out of storage as well as some random minis. Squats for heresy will be my next big project to finish off I feel. #minipainting #warhammer #nerdlings

071

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 12/10/2025

Almost done my mousling pirate diorama. Featuring the great @reaperminiatures.bsky.social mouslings and boat. Gotta do some more layers of water effects and then varnish, after any fixes.

020

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

Got some colours down. The captain's face didn't get fully primed so he got airbrushed yellow for a base coat. Lots done but lots more work to go. But now is for drinking some of my homemade mead and watching the new V/H/S #nerdlings #paintingminis

020

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 04/10/2025

Working on my mousling pirate diorama. Gotta do another layer of texture paste then it's time to prime. #nerdlings #paintingminis

Played, and lost, some malifaux tonight. Was so caught up in the game I forgot to take more photos. Drunken gremlins met elephant guns. You do the math. #malifaux #tabletopgaming #miniatures #nerdlings

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 25/09/2025

Today's haul, went to the store with a $60 budget, only spent $100 so, small victories. #Warhammer #Malifaux

dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social @dicemongerenkidu.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Bottled up my mead tonight, it's just a standard basic bitch mead, as the sakura blossoms I got, don't tint water pink like I thought they would, and are salted. So that's a double no go. Next mead project in the air though, maybe something tabletop inspired. No clue what that even means right now.
