There is no need for fireworks now with drone shows. No need for pets and vets to cower and for wild life to suffer as well as the pollution and noise. I said what I said.

The push towards having my army ready continues! Is this guy part of any list? No! But he’s clad in red so it counts! #warhammer40k #spacemarines #bloodangels #captainingravisarmor #hobbyprogress

Ok so on a new phone and this camera seems to auto fuck with color balance, so stick with me while I figure this out Anyways, TANK! This was an undertaking. 7 hours of edge highlighting alone. There is so much I can criticize about this result, but despite the myriad flaws, it still looks good

Ooookay my account was suspended for unspecified suspicious activity for a little bit there, but I’m back! And here’s a completed sanguinary guard dude for my return #gw #warhammer #warhammer40k #bloodangels #sanguinaryguard #hobbyprogress

Getting back into a hobby groove! This model rules, I was surprised by just how sick it looked as I was painting it. #trenchcruasde #factoryfortress #wargamescrew #hereticlegion #anointedheavyinfantry #knightsofavarice #hobbyprogress

My third, and likely final, heretic priest for my knights of avarice. Couldn’t resist this sculpt from WarGames Crew it’s just has the perfect vibe! #trenchcrusade #factoryfortress #wargamescrew #hereticlegion #hereticpriest #hobbyprogress

Seeing as I haven’t taken that team picture yet for my blood bowl team, on to the next model I’ve finished and goddamn it looks good! Getting these shiny angels done is a bit labor intensive but it’s so worth it in the end #warhammer #sanguinaryguard #warhammer40k #hobbyprogress

Ok hobby hiccup again but I have been painting. But today. Today I share something that has brought much joy. This bench I built over the last two days! I designed it, I put it together, made pocket holes without a jig and got a rock solid result. I’m so fucking proud #workbench #carpentry #diy

Hold up! Wait a minute! I skipped a whole ass positional, and my favorite player on the team to boot! The last Ulf, and probably my favorite paint job on the team. NOW that’s the whole team and I’ll get on that team photo #bloodbowl #norse #bloodbowlnorseteam #hobbyprogress

Given number 15 for my favorite Ducks player and their franchise leading scorer Ryan Getzlaf, my last Valkyrie! Painting her was a delight and just about wraps up this team! #bloodbowl #norse #bloodbowlnorse #valkyrie #hobbyprogress

My last berserker! I tried a very different combo of skin tones for this guy, and though it wasn’t what I was aiming for, I still think he turned out looking pretty good #bloodbowl #bloodbowlnorse #berseker #hobbyprogress

Okie dokie then! Depression really kicked the shit out of me there for a bit, but we got through it! Happy to report that this team is fully painted just in time for my first game tomorrow! And I’ll be getting the pictures of the rest of the players up soon #bloodbowl #hobbyprogress

First up now that the lineman are done, a berserker! His face reminded me of Zangief a little bit, so I tried to get his beard to match color wise. I don’t think I nailed the match, but it’s close enough #bloodbowl #norse #norseteam #norseberserker #berserker #hobbyprogress

Last lineman! She gave me fuckin fits but I got her done! Now I’m on to the positionals! Probably well passed the halfway point #bloodbowl #norse #bloodbowlnorseteam #raiderlineman #hobbyprogress

Lineman are finishing up like a dream! Starting to get to work on the positionals, so I’m hoping this team will be done in a week or so #bloodbowl #norse #bloodbowlnorseteam #raiderlineman #hobbyprogress

Settled in back at home and back at my house and bench, so it’s time to get these lineman done. Not as happy with the chalk line this time, but that’s fine #bloodbowl #norse #bloodbowlnorse #raiderlineman #hobbyprogress

The base popped off her early in but I still was able to get most of the way through this model. Only two lineman left who aren’t most of the way done #bloodbowl #bloodbowlnorse #raiderlineman #hobbyprogress

This lad is going to need a good bit of extra work when I get home, skin, hair, and the beer all needing more paint than I have. But with what is done, I’m very pleased #bloodbowl #norseraiderlineman #bloodbowlnorse #hobbyprogress

I’m not home this week and I won’t be able to finish anything, but that doesn’t mean I won’t be painting! Got this model very close to done and I’m very happy with it #bloodbowl #bloodbowlnorse #norscsrampagers #gw #hobbyprogress

Though my focus is on my norse, I had some half painted dwarf lineman I didn’t want to just leave partially done. So I knocked this lad out #bloodbowl #gw #dwarfgiants #bloodbowldwarves #dwarflineman #hobbyprogress

I was given the Norse Blood Bowl team for my birthday a few days ago and I’ve been obsessed with working on them. So with some serious pride over how this came out, I introduce the first member of the Mighty Nordin’ Power Drinkers #bloodbowl #norse #gw #hobbyprogress

I have a friend who is the ultimate hobby enabler, and his most recent interest, is Blood Bowl. Seeing as I’ve been BB curious for ages, I’m thrilled. So I decided to reprime and repaint my old Dwarf team to scratch the BB itch until I can get the team I want #bloodbowl #dwarfgiants #hobbyprogress

Another gold boy! It’s a bit of a labor intensive process but it’s so worth it in the end! I think these will look so good in a sea of red armor #gw #gamesworkshop #spacemarines #bloodangles #sanguinaryguard #hobbyprogress

Taking pictures of an all metallic model is difficult! This was a test for how I want to do my Sang Guard. The armor took two attempts, and I’m glad I took that time because goddamn this looks good! #warhammer #warhammer40k #bloodangels #spacemarines #hobbyprogress

My first models of the year were actually these peasants for the Dragon Hunt scenario in Trench Crusade. Quick, easy, and honestly I didn’t put a lot of effort into them. Unlike the “dragon” which got to see the field for the first time yesterday #trenchcrusade #dragonhunt #hobbyprogress

So I feel like when I set up my background for pictures, they always turn out like shit, so I’m going to do some plain work bench pics and see if that keeps my picture backlog down Anyway, not surprising but I really need to work on my edge highlighting skills #bloodangels #hobbyprogress #ballistus

It’s hobby resolution time! Last year I finished 40 different projects for a total of 118 models. Despite an ever increasing work load, this year my resolution is to paint 150 models, and get my blood angels army and trench Cossacks warband done. #hobbyprogress #hobbyresolution

Ok! My nearly two month long lull, from mental and physical health issues along with some personal shit, I am back to posting stuff unpainted ages ago! And to kick it off, my 100th painted model of the year! And the first terrain I’ve painted in years #terrain #modularterrain #hobbyprogress

The other model that really pushed me to look into a 3d printer. BiteTheBullet absolutely went off on this sculpt, it’s so fuckin characterful, and was a joy to paint. And now I need to find the time and energy to take more pictures #trenchcrusade #newantioch #lieutenant #hobbyprogress

Hip fire shotgun! Probably my favorite of the Yeoman I have currently have painted. My current campaign has barely gotten started but I already can’t wait until I can get this warband on the campaign trail #trenchcrusade #newantioch #yeoman #eirerangers #hobbyprogress

Now onto a yeoman that I’m a particularly big fan of because I modified it in blender! Nothing crazy, I just cut the original bayonet off and made a new one but considering I have no idea what I’m doing I was still very proud! #trenchcrusade #yeoman #newantioch #hobbyprogress

Sense I haven’t posted anything like this yet I’ll put a quick warning that this model is #nsfw This was a gift for one of my partners. I did the majority of the painting by airbrush as a challenge and I think it shows. Despite my self criticism, she loves it and that what matters #hobbyprogress

Up next, this awesome trench cleric model I stumbled upon. I love the Ghibli style gas mask, and despite being rather still in its pose, it still exudes character. Very fond of this model #trenchcrusade #trenchcleric #newantioch #eirerangers #hobbyprogress

Alright back to minis I painted ages ago! In a new location with a new background for hopefully better pictures A combat engineer for my Eire Rangers! It’s super hard to find any sculpts that are or work as combat engineers right now. It’s a bummer #trenchcrusade #newantioch #hobbyprogress
