Finally opened the bottle of Drambuie I ‘won’ from @drkayak.bsky.social a decade ago. The experience was…unique? Starts off way too sweet, transitions to black licorice, and then finishes with not great scotch. Would not recommend, but need recommendations for what to do with the rest of the bottle.

Husks from Warcrow Adventures by Corvus Belli. Quick and dirty and done.

Progress getting things to battle ready on my list for an April event. It’s a lot, but yeah, getting there. #warhammer40k #orks

One of the most common responses to folks learning my son plays field hockey is “oh yeah, men’s field hockey was in the last olympics wasn’t it?” because the United States almost universally considers it a women’s only sport and doesn’t realize the rest of the world doesn’t at all.

Thanks to @gavthorpe.bsky.social I can no longer face Imperial opponents without giggling about their holy pigeon.

Ork progress for event in April. I expect my brain to melt mid March and just toggle back to my Votann. #warhammer40k #orks

Bonus of having a few procedures and hospital stays is I got these kicking hospital socks to lounge around in while sick! I am concerned it may have been a veterinary hospital just a bit though.

Time to start painting that army! (kid immediately gets me sick)

Ed Teffeau @watchmanblue.bsky.social · 20/01/2025

Builduary was a success! Cleaned off my unassembled shelf of 54 Infinity minis, a blood bowl team, the Ghost crew for Shatterpoint, 15 various Warhammer Infantry, a trukk, a Land Raider, and Trugg the troggoth king. Now to finish painting this lot for an event mid April! #warhammer40k #infinity

2000 point Ork army in progress including 80 infantry, four vehicles, and a batch of squig riders

Still trying to get through all my unassembled kits in January. Getting closer, but this week assembling 54 Infinity models was brutal.

Gaslands shenanigans! My performance car nabbed the win in the end. Good times! #gaslands

Over the break I got gifted another Ork trukk and my father in law was looking it over and asked “How long does that take to build?” and I guesstimated about two hours. And then…for science!!! #warhammer40k #orks

Built Ork Trukk in reasonable paintable subassemblies

Ed Teffeau @watchmanblue.bsky.social · 08/01/2025

Been trying to get through my unassembled kits for January and the first week was fruitful. Also, I haven’t found an elf I don’t hate building with my giant hands.

For some reason my entire discover feed is sports now despite all my likes and follows not being sports. Very weird…

Miniatures holding a gun with both hands in front of them without well defined shoulder connection points are a crime against nature.

Let the kid choose which combat patrol I got to play against his Necrons and he chose my Votann and I got a stark reminder how underpowered that combat patrol is. #warhammer40k

Ed Teffeau @watchmanblue.bsky.social · 03/01/2025

Da waaaagh rolled up on some guard tanks and did Ork things. Fun times had by all! Hilariously the best snagga boyz in melee with the tanks survived a stupidly long time. So much paint needed… #warhammer40k #orks

Why yes, the sky is blue. So many great shades of blue…

Xmas sandwich! Ork bread with a thin slice of Dwarf and a side of Mech

Pile of mini boxes including an Ork Beast boss, big Mek, deffkoptas, trukk, hernkyn yaegirs, and an eridani light horse hunter lance.

WIP Wednesday… got to figure out what pattern I want in the end zones and then moss…so much moss… #BloodBowl #Dwarves

It’s that time of year again. Amidst a steady stream of metal I tend to listen to other random things on repeat…a lot…

Ed Teffeau @watchmanblue.bsky.social · 04/12/2024

Been on the shelf a while but finally getting back to this project. There’ll be a dice tray between the two bench areas and a scoreboard down at the other end with marks for score, rerolls, and turn. I fully expect it to be done around 2028. 😜 #BloodBowl

Little symbol telling me to ‘make sure to paint in here’ before the next page completely seals off that entire interior. So no manual, I will not be painting that.

I would always get annoyed by people posting screenshots from Truth Social over on Twitter and now I get annoyed at people posting screenshots from Twitter on here. ‘Look at this cesspool!’ isn’t compelling. Art and minis are.

It’s not going to be painted in time and I have to build a vehicle still, but it will be hilarious!

Throw back Thursday with some Malifaux. I think I have played once since finishing them two years ago…

You would think by this point I’d be over my dislike of building metal models, but nope, still hate it.

The shelf of shame! The problem with playing new games is that the other games I love don’t get the time they need. Maybe over the turkey day holiday I’ll put a dent in this…but more likely just add to it.

Vroom vroom… I need to get a resin printer one of these days for better pew pew, but it’s magnetized anyway!

I’m fairly certain this is not the correct orientation to be in when crossing the finish line.

I am 50. I’ve played guitar for 35 years. Played miniature games for 32. Been married for 27. Made video games for 25. Been a father for 10. They all bring me joy more often than not. I’m not an expert at any of them. Also, beard.

Eventually I’ll convince my kid that hard work and practice are how you become proficient at something and it doesn’t just happen.

I rearranged the apps on my phone so now instinctively click here instead of that other place since a good number of folks I follow have made the jump. Hopefully I can cultivate my same three digit following of bots and achieve all my influencer goals!
