Trying out some Blender procedural texturing I saw in a CBaileyFilm video on YouTube.. along with some of the new compositing effects in v5.2. Silly ship design but doesn't look half bad!

Trying to teach myself how to draw #OSR / #oldskool game book style art work with heavy hatching etc... this was an attempt to draw a moon. Using #affinity and some vector based hashing and inking brushes. Kinda works at first glance

Managed to get 7 functional old school #ig heavy weapons teams out of a pile of busted eBay auction bits. Rather enjoyed taking "junk" and giving it new life #warhammer #40k

Just did my first ever production release whilst sitting on a beach!

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 09/01/2026

And the plans & cut lists created with Boxsert designer

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 09/01/2026

So the whole reason I built boxinsertdesigner.com was because I needed to create designs for these inserts and then programmer me fell down a rabbit hole of thinking there must be an easier way to do this.... behold my #foamcore inserts for the #teamyankee #flamesofwar #worldwarIII starter set

Bashed them together in #Affinity and then with a some #fotosketcher magic got this which, I then pulled back into affinity and mocked up a faux "book" layout

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 08/01/2026

Have been working on my #photobashing and layout skills in #affinity This one looks half decent...

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 11/12/2025

This #photobash of made out of bits of pics of warships and fighter planes also came out pretty nice... lots of happy accidents in this one. #Affinity #dontknowwhatImdoing

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 11/12/2025

Have been learning to #photobash in #Affinity... this one kinda came out alright

Painted up the US tanks for my starter box of #TeamYankee #WWIII ,that I bought years ago, in a close approximation of mid 1980's NATO cammo. Models were assembled by my youngest so a bit dodgy 😂

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 19/07/2025

Definitely not my best work but I'm gonna call these done for the moment.... only have a bazillion more to paint! #greentide #warhammer40k

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 06/07/2025

Vintage comic effects test.... looks weird when scaled due to the faux screening....

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 06/07/2025

Randomly learning to digitally colour B&W ink sketches... this is a practice piece on a low res scan of some old Rogue Trader era #warhammer40k art

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 23/06/2025

Some painted up #onepagerules Saurian Gators... love these models, super easy to paint up, just the right amount of detail. Also used a super easy technique which, makes it look like I'm a way better painter than I am....

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 01/06/2025

Oops realized I haven't posted anything for ages 😱 So here are some #openpagerules Saurian objective markers with tiny fruit and vegetables! #minipainting

3D printed objective markers for the OPR Saurians. Aztec looking carved stones, magical flames and offering bowls of tiny fruit and vegetables

Ever wonder what one of the new "reasoning" model's solution to humanity's problems would be ? And then what would happen if you told it that you don't think humans would willingly execute its plan... well I did... it's a very interesting read...

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 27/01/2025

Busted out my resin printer and I'm printing up a ton of #onepagerules minis... A couple more runs and my starter Duchies army will be done

010

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 27/01/2025

Test color scheme for speed painting #onepagerules Duchies of Vinci Automata. Should be able to get it down to 10min a figure I think. Gotta love #thearmypainter metallic speedpaints!

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 10/01/2025

Well that went better than expected... Super easy, slap the glue on, wait till it turns mostly transparent, dunk into the foliage! Now to try to make them more robust for gaming... Bring on the water, pva and matt medium concoction!

000

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 10/01/2025

Giving Hob-e-Tac a go... Hopefully easier than other methods of sticking on clump foliage in the past 🤞 #terrian #wargaming

Finished up some 3D printed ruined fantasy #terrain for #frostgrave and #openpagerules and #warhammer

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 08/01/2025

Got those Tyger Claws gonks painted up for a game tomorrow. Just to a basic, table top standard, might come back and do highlights and details later.... also got myself a tiny turntable #cyberpunkred #combatzone #minipainting

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 05/01/2025

Purple underpainting on some Tyger Claws gonks I got for Xmas #cyberpunkcombatred #minipainting

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 24/12/2024

Painting up some old scout bikers. These were some ebay rescues so not the best assembly job...but fun to paint #warhammer #ultramarine #wip

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 20/12/2024

Got a little distracted setting up a Github action to automate the build of my prototype... used this excellent action github.com/marketplace/... for #godot So now have automated windows & web builds & deployment to a test website. Also slapped together a main menu ! #gamedev #unclejoeslaptop

060

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 18/12/2024

Also gave the GUT #godot unit test framework a test... it worked very nicely... made it really easy to put together and test my fake file system #gamedev

060

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 18/12/2024

Current state of prototype... split out each command as a "app" so easy to add new ones, each with their own help. Added a file system with content and support for hidden files... slapped on a CRT shader and a lovely amber phosphor #godot #gamedev #unclejoeslaptop

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 17/12/2024

Built a prototype terminal/fake OS in #godot Tinkering with the idea of creating a game where you find the laptop of your deceased Uncle Joe and unravel the mystery of his life by exploring it's contents...

Middling success with trying to use matt medium to do ink transfers from inkjet printed graffiti #wargaming #terrain

020

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 14/12/2024

Started paint job on my first gen 3D bits + foamcore test piece just for fun

010

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 14/12/2024

Experimenting with creating a 3D printable clip/bits system for building #wargaming terrain out of 5mm foamcore... these are the second generation of designs and are working much better... may be onto something here 🤷

050

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 14/12/2024

Test of using #TRELLIS to take an (AI generated) image and turn it into a 3D head model for 3D printing for custom heads for #warhammer models

rabidgremlin @rabidgremlin.com · 14/12/2024

A quick test of using a local LLM (#ollama & #llama3.2) to create AIs in #godot that you can chat with... each NPC can a have a backstory and some "knowledge"... here is a chat with Bob the Hook a washed up pirate..
