#MTGFracture I thought LAST ONE was the crying one Also, Chandra is me, always

She looks around for her petrified counterpart and finds her nearby, her body shattered but her dress intact. "I've got a plan," she says to Chandra. "Help me get her dress off."

Chandra blushes.

"For a disguise, lady-killer."

INCREDIBLY funny that they have never actually met.

Chandra nods in seeming comprehension. "Garruk." She glances at Ajani and whispers, "Are we supposed to know who that is?"

If we get a Kallist Rhoka card in this set (other than this playtest card) I am going to go INSANE. If we don't get a Kallist card or mention I will also go insane.

Kallist Rhoka {3}{U}{B}

Legendary Creature — Human Wizard

Prowess, deathtouch

When you cast Kallist Rhoka, you may choose a creature or planeswalker on the battlefield. Kallist Rhoka becomes a copy of that creature or planeswalker, and that creature or planeswalker becomes a copy of Kallist Rhoka.

Who up being sad about Kallist Rhoka.

"No!" Tam's voice echoes in Liliana's cell, and for a second, even that sounds familiar. "If you're going to try and tell me who I am, then I'm going to leave."

A powerful sense of déjà vu raises gooseflesh on Liliana's skin. All I am seeing today are doubles, she thinks.

I'm glad Merfolk are keeping their tapping/untapping themselves subtheme! The one Commander deck I've ever been proud of brewing was Merfolk tap/untap typal lead by Derevi. Now I might have to actually play a game of Commander again :p

Painted this guy yesterday :) It was fun to just slap color on a miniature without worrying about color scheme or cohesion with other things

Attempt at an icy Kroxigor! Pretty happy with it for a couple hours in one evening, and as always learned a lot 🙂

I keep forgetting to post how these turned out!! I finished them last week, and I’m pretty pleased with them :) really enjoyed the basing especially! working on tyranids now #RourkeHammer

Painted eyes a few days ago, and put their wings on last night! Pretty happy with how they’re going, though I have no idea what I’m going to do about the bases :) #RourkeHammer

Vespid stingwing models, now with wings on

Rourke Bywater @rourke.bsky.social · 25/10/2024

Ok this Balthazar gold looks MUCH nicer. While applying it I did notice some spots I missed with the Akhelian Green contrast paint (especially on the Stealth Suit model). Going to work on that tonight, and decide what to do for the details! Maybe red for the eyes/gun bits? #RourkeHammer

Wingless vespid models + drone, weapons and armor pained a metallic copper color

Rourke Bywater @rourke.bsky.social · 24/10/2024

Tried a bit of the Sand Golem for the weapons/drone - don’t like how it looks, I think I don’t want a contrast paint for this job. Going to go for a more saturated metallic copper I think, like Balthasar Gold

A drone mini and a vespid mini, the gun and the drone painted a muddy/rusty orange

Rourke Bywater @rourke.bsky.social · 24/10/2024

Primed them all, then contrast painted and dry brushed most of them. I’m pretty happy with how they’re going so far. :) definitely learning a lot #RourkeHammer

Almost finished assembling the squad! Worked on them while watching #RoguelikeCelebration2024 . Definitely got some excess plastic glue on a chest plate or two from my fingers, and some of them are looking too far downwards. Lessons learned, but I’m pretty happy! #RourkeHammer

8 vespid stingwing miniatures, unpainted and without wings

Rourke Bywater @rourke.bsky.social · 19/10/2024

Assembled my first guy! Leaving the wings off until after painting bc I understand that they make certain parts really annoying to reach. Also this is my warhammer thread now #RourkeHammer
