Got one chunk of the rent paid, with $25 to spare. Thank you all! I still have time — and a great need — for more work, so I am still accepting commissions. I'm keeping the $400 BattleMech company and $150 Rogue Trader Dreadnought deals available until I can pay off the rest of the rent and get food

I'm still running my $400 'Mech company and $150 Rogue Trader Dreadnought specials. Rent is covered enough for now, but I still need food and there's a relatively expensive appointment on Friday.

And so I begin #Mechatober. The "seals" are actually just hazard tape taped over it's various laser eyes to stop them opening. Not particuarly effective when it has its own hands to tear the tape off.

Still working on the Centurion Dreadnought, trying to get it done before I have to set it aside for commission work. Really it just needs highlights, details, and decals - but that's a LOT of work left. And yes, it *will* have a shark mouth, but I'm saving that for last. #Warhammer40k #Nerdlings

The Last Champion of Hercynia. [Exomorph Egregorian for Pass the Torch] #Commission #Lancer #TTRPG #Egregorian

$The image depicts a colossal mutated Egregorian from the Lancer TTRPG. This Egregorian is an Exomorph -- morphs created to withstand the chaotic space battles against humanities ships in an ancient war. This particular Exomorph survived and plays an important role in Pass the Torch. The Exomorph is a crustacean and Insectoid creature of gigantic size with two sets of forelimbs, one that resembles a mantis with coconut-crab like appendages and scythes, and one that resembles a crabs thick claws. The center of the mass is bigger than the rest, mutated into a castle-like formation that protects the rest of the body behind it like armor. On its back are 4 dragonfly-like wings with a colourful sheen that contrast with the rest of the creature. On its shell are also a large rifle and grenade launcher that have had part of the shell grow over them. The creature also has an elongated neck with ruff fur of some sort protecting it. at the end of the neck is the monstrous head of the being with two sets of bifurcated jaws, large thick tusks and a protrusion of bone and shell for ramming into battleships. The creatures eyes are impossible to see and the very few slots onto which they would fit are vacant and hollow. The Exomorph has a long lobster-like tail with multiple small sets of legs for grabbing onto ships, thought 3 sets of longer, thinner legs with metal spikes at their ends resemble those of the Egregorians. The Egregorian shows various battle scars, pieces of old ships stuck to it and a strange unnatural fraying at its edges -- turning into fractal patterns as the creature seems to be almost fading away from reality. They also carry rocket-thrusters palced onto their back and various metal spike spines over and under their body The Exomorphs wings are blue and pink with some yellow highlights and its body is a dark and unsaturated mix of green$

I need to raise cash fast, so I'm opening commissions again. I've reintroduced my basic $25 tier and I'm running a special on lance (4-unit) and star (5-unit) formations. See the carousel for base prices!

I can FINALLY share this guy that I finished a couple weeks ago. Lots and lots of red-gold trim, took for freaking ever.

A Space Marine Praetor from the Blood Angels Legion. He's wearing the signature red armor with lots (and LOTS) of red-gold trim, silver studs, and a massive two-handed axe with a metallic green blade with blood along the cutting edge. There's a gold halo above his Corvis-style helmet and an arc of golden skulls on his backpack. He stands on gray rubble.

A right-side view of the Praetor, showing off the Blood Angels Legion symbol on his pauldron.

A rear view of the Praetor, showing off the details of his mechanical backpack and his long cape, which is blue with black and yellow trim and a rich purple lining.

A left-side view of the Praetor. This shows off his other pauldron and greaves, which are covered in silver studs of various sizes. Behind his axe can be seen his sidearm, a large silver gun in a leather holster.

Good news: Got my meds! Thank you all! Bad news: The deal I'd struck to cover rent this coming month (and to make up for missing last month) fell through, so I'm going to have to open emergency commissions. I'd honestly hoped to be done with them for a bit. Watch for the post later today.

First near-complete test fit for my mini of the month entry. Yes, it's a Horus Heresy-era Dreadnought Centurion. After all, if there was ever a time that a Marine entombed in a Dreadnought would've been a regular field officer, it would've been then. #Nerdlings #Warhammer40k

A heavily modified Rogue Trader-era Imperial Dreadnought. It has an assault cannon fitted on its right arm, a power fist with combi-weapon on its left arm, clawed feet, a cape and back banner, and commanders' medallions alongside its "face." It's a mish-mash of colors, since it's all used and modded parts from various models and games.
