I know I don't post much, but I did finally write a new article: Its overwrought, very long, and more detail than anyone needs, but It was fun. I talk about my journey with two big Projects: 10 MTG decks, and wrapping up painting a lot of giants! tinyurl.com/yc59brdf #mtg #D&D #minispainting

A wide shot of all 53 giants I have hand painted over the years, from Stone, Storm, Fire, Frost, Hill and Cloud.

Here we are. All 53 painted giants in a single shot. It's hard to make them all out, but! Maybe you find your favorite in there!

53 hand painted giants from d n d. 5 stone giants, 8 fire giants, 12 frost giants, 24 hill giants, 2 cloud giants, 2 storm giants,

It's been a long time, but. I've finished up. 55 giants painted. The final three finished tonight. I can now start the process of transitioning the maps for Against the Giants so I can one day run it.

Ive been silent for months and months because things have been tough, personally, and have been lacking in inspiration, enjoyment, and tolerance. But I did do this last night, and its cool #d&d #dungeonsanddragons #maps #adventures

I think I finished up my one-shot DND Christmas adventure. It's humorous, quick and tight. I think. It also has numerous pages of history and lore and background, but how else would I write? #dnd #adventures #writer #ttrpg #rpg #dungeonsanddragons

Seething Ginger @seething-ginger.bsky.social · 09/11/2025

I'm writing a "Christmas" one-shot for #dnd5e. it's made me think about holidays, fun, and joy in a campaign setting that is normally pretty bleak. I'm really enjoying it. Once I'm done with it imma put it up for free so other people can tell me what they think and use it!! #ttrpg #rpg #adventures

I'm not a speed runner. After 119 hours, 152 levels, and 7 great runes, I am done with Elden Ring. I didn't do everything - I rarely do in any one game - but I'm very satisfied. It definitely had some very frustrating parts, but what game doesn't? #eldenring #ps5 #videogame #games #gamer

Seething Ginger @seething-ginger.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

Playing Elden Ring for the first time. It's a genre of games I really love (souls like) and though I love it now, I almost bounced off it at the beginning. My choice to forgoe a shield after playing DS 1-3 using them has been a huge change! I love the paired swords, but I really wish I could block!

Hey! #ttrpg #dnd #miniatures folks. I'm looking for cool, winter models for, tiefling, dragon born, gnomes and elves. I've found some but have had trouble locating these because naming conventions aren't uniform across the industry. Any assistance would be wonderful! (Even non-winter, honestly)

Spent a few hours researching abbeys and monasteries so that I could, as best as possible in a short time, recreate one, and then turn it into unrecognizable ruins that only I will understand as my players stalk through my adventure. Anyone else? #D&D #ttrpg #DND5e #roleplayinggames #rpg

I don't like short rests in #D&D. I think they slow down the game and force hour long holes in a session and adventure. I believe the game would be better to go back to per day abilities, refreshing on a long rest. What do you think? #ttrpg #dungeonsanddragons #5e

Seething Ginger @seething-ginger.bsky.social · 14/08/2025

What is the Fantasy behind Summoners? What do you think of when you hear Summoner? What do they do? How do they interact with the world? The game? What playstyle should they intersect with? what abilities should they have? What makes one different from another? #ttrpg #Dnd #dungeonsanddragons #rpg

Seething Ginger @seething-ginger.bsky.social · 10/08/2025

I'm not gonna guarantee this hasn't happened before, but I have never seen all six living @galeforcenine.bsky.social giants painted and together. Most of them were an absolute joy, and I love that they are all finished and together. #miniatures #giants #minispainting #ttrpg #dnd #painting

I gotta get back to painting. I keep seeing this giant on my desk - one base color - standing in shame. I can't look at him for longer than a minutes. I Just need to start again, and all the pressure will relieve itself, but no. Just... Anxiety. Stupid brain.

Seething Ginger @seething-ginger.bsky.social · 17/06/2025

If you were told by your DM, prior to starting the adventure, that you needed to create two characters, loosely connected, one 1st level and one 5th level, what would your assumptions be? #dungeonsanddragons #adventures #dnd #characters

I've run a #D&D game for the kiddo for the three years previous, and this year my wife decided to join in. Its the biggest and longest one I've ran in a day, and I am getting better at building one-shot dungeons. Getting to hang out with my family playing D&D on fathers day makes me very happy.

Painting up the Fire Giant prince from #galeforce9 was a real treat after that let down from the dreadnought. I like how the black Iron halo and hammer came out, and wonder if I shouldn't have done their weapons like that from the start. #firegiant #giants #D&D #ttrpg #miniatures #minispainting

I really wish I had a publisher willing to pay me for all my cool ideas, and do all the marketing. Being a real human with real human debts and problems makes all the creative stuff take a back seat to getting real life resolved. One day perhaps! #publishig #ttrpg #games #marketinf

I've been extremely quiet for a while, its been real tough to get anything creative goin', but, hopefully here in a little bit I'll be able to restart that engine. It tough always wanting to create, but not having enough bandwidth or energy to do it!

This stupid #firegiant took me way, way too long. It took me way too long to paint, and I am going into the tank for the next fire giant, but he's done. Need a bigger light box... Also, my take on the fire giant dreadnought, probably overtuned. #dnd #minispainting #miniatures #giants #ttrpg

You'd think playing #dnd 3 days in a row would be awesome. It is, actually! The tough thing is switching character-brains: Kindly, well meaning, himbo fighter; competitive, brutal, combat loving barbarian, and calculating, focused, low-spoken wizard. #ttrpg #rpg #dungeonsanddragons

Seething Ginger @seething-ginger.bsky.social · 08/04/2025

Being a slow, patient painter who doesn't enjoy cutting corners and paints for the enjoyment of it - not simply to get it on the table - has made it very frustrating to enjoy playing miniatures games much anymore. Getting, or even progressing, on a complete army isn't feasible. So I left the hobby.

Seething Ginger @seething-ginger.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

Ive spent time over the last week reorganizing my #mtg collection -getring rid of "more than a playset", etc. And. I think I want to reorganize them into a better system. Ugh. by-color-by-set has served so far, with blocks now vanished and infinite sets, I think I should just alphabetize

Seething Ginger @seething-ginger.bsky.social · 06/04/2025

Unlike the previous giants, this one is absolutely miserable to paint. The pose, sculpt and quality are all questionable. Parts are difficult to reach, the materials are difficult to differentiate from one another... It's just a mess. I'll be happy to be done. #dnd #gf9 #miniatures #painting #ttrpg
