Finished the Archaeopter Stratoraptor! The model is complete, base is done, and she's finally flying high on her stand! I'm proud of the improvements to my freehand work on this model, as well as the step up in complexity in my Martian Surface base for this army. Tonight, I start something orky!

I haven't painted since I moved back in April, so yesterday I tried a mini painting. The mini canvas was a lot of fun, might try more. Found the inspo on Pinterest. Can you tell one of my special interests is cats? #cat #acrylic

Acrylic painting on a mini canvas. Lavender background. In the bottom left corner, a gray cat peeks around with big eyes and ears back, looking like it's going to pounce.

Alright, 2024 is ending and so is this project! Finishing 2024 with the end of the Stratoraptor! The stream doesn't end until this model is finished! The base is gonna be a task, but we'll get it done, from primer to full texture and color! Join me at twitch.tv/sirdavicus and hobby along!

How about some more xeno love? Here's my Patriarch for my Genestealer Cult! I really wanted to make strong contrast between the skin, armored carapace and the very vibrant more dangerous bits. I kept the scheme simpler to try and get through them faster, since this is how my Tyranids will look too!

An old painting I did of a lil kitten on a rainy day

Acrylic painting of a white and orange kitten sitting on a gray surface looking outside the window. Rain drops slide down the window as the kitten looks out to a lush green yard with evergreens and flower bushes.

Well I won't get better at freehand work by NOT practicing, so I decided to take a risk on last night's stream and try to recreate some of the designs from the transfer sheet by hand. There is definitely better work done by more talented painters, but I think it's a strong step towards improvement!

Sir Davicus @sirdavicus.bsky.social · 16/12/2024

This is my wonderful wife! They make lots of amazing cross stitch and crochet projects and some really amazing canvas paintings! They deserve lots of love and praise for their work, and I think you should give them a follow!

Here's the one and only commission job I took! A Coldstar Commander from the T'au Empire! Lots of time spent carefully highlighting edges and making sure the panels were as clean and crisp as I could make them at the time. Love the colors and I think he, his base and drone friend came out nice!

Here's a behemoth that took me ages! My XV104 Riptide Battlesuit from the T'au Empire! This model took me ages with all of the edges and surfaces needing careful layering after pin washing, but the effort was worth it! Love the model, love the base, and it's a beast on the table to boot!

Games Workshop sent me the Dark Mechanicum Serperos Overlord Heavy Stalkers (quite the mouthful!) I've used the same colours as my Necromunda Delaques 😅 and then lots of washes to get that dirty oil look. I wish they were titan sized! #adwip #warhammercommunity #legionsimperialis

Here's a bigger boi! My first ever Imperial Knight Warden, fully painted! This was still kinda early in my painting career, so the base is a lot more subdued than I would normally do, but I really love this model and the way it came out! 😄

Finally, the beauty shots of the Warboss in Mega Armor I just finished with my Twitch community! Had an absolute blast bringing this guy to life! The weathering and bright colors makes me feel proud to have this guy charge into the fray and get stuck in! I hope you like him too!

Here's the first ever miniature I've painted on my Twitch stream! He's a Tech-Priest Dominus from the Adeptus Mechanicus from Warhammer 40K. I'm really happy with how he came out, and the stripe on the hood was one of my first ever freehand attempts, as well as the bubbles in the vials on top!

Here's another of my finished models! My Genestealer Cults Patriarch from Warhammer 40,000! Painted up to match my upcoming Tyranid Hive Fleet! Pretty happy with the result, but I may revisit it someday to add a little more detail.

Working on version 0.9 of my board game is a major rules overhaul to change the flow of the game to try speeding things up by allowing simultaneous actions between players. It's always daunting to rewrite a major amount of the game's rules, but it has consistently led to big improvements so far!

Photo from a recent play test of my board game! Still seeing some pacing issues, particularly in games of 3-4 players, but there's a few options to explore for shoring that up which I think will help. Testing of version 0.8.2 is complete, gonna move on to developing and building 0.9!

Sir Davicus @sirdavicus.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Progress from last night's stream on my Ork Warboss in Mega Armor! I am so close to done! All the highlights are finished, the weathering has begun, and all that remains is to do the last layer of weathering and then the base! Hell be done on Monday! :)

Sir Davicus @sirdavicus.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Getting ready to go live on Twitch at 7 PM Eastern tonight! My Ork Warboss from Warhammer 40K is gonna continue to get highlighted until his edges are nice and visible and clear! You are all invited to hang out if you want a friend to hobby with! twitch.tv/sirdavicus

One of my guiding principles in board game design is that gameplay is decision making. If a player is doing something but wasn't required to make some kind of decision, they're just bookkeeping. Keep players thinking and choosing. What are some of your guiding design principles?

Sir Davicus @sirdavicus.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

In between hobby posts, I figured I'd share my thoughts on game design, since I'm working on my own board game! I'd be very interested in what anyone else thinks as well! It's such a fascinating puzzle to solve, so let's solve it together!

Sir Davicus @sirdavicus.bsky.social · 17/11/2024

I thought I'd start by sharing some of my favorite Warhammer 40,000 minis! I'll start with one I consider to be some of my best work. This is my Ghazghkull Thrakka! I absolutely love this model, and I took my time to give it a lot of love and care, painted from start to finish on Twitch!
