Tabletop Minions
@tabletopminions
A video channel about tabletop wargaming and the miniatures hobby, mostly. Also, half of Snarling Badger Studios.
The big orange moose makes it very difficult to get my video editing done. He’s trapped my left arm.
If you’ve wondered what’s behind me during the Every Other Sunday show - happy Sunday!
This is a quickly-painted Boneclaw miniature from @wizkids.bsky.social that I did during last night’s session here at D&D in a Castle, where I’m teaching folks how to paint. @thearmypainter.bsky.social Speedpaints over a simple rattlecan zenithal prime. Quick and easy!
Here’s the Annis Hag I painted from @wizkids.bsky.social this morning here at the D&D in a Castle event in Ohio. I’m here teaching folks to paint with @thearmypainter.bsky.social paints. This lady is mostly Speedpaints with a bit of Fanatic paints, too. A fun sculpt!
I was looking up my shipping address today (I can never remember it) and it’s on my channel page on YouTube. I noticed that YouTube believes I now have 1000 videos on my channel. This is crazy to me - but I don’t want to go through and manually count them so I’m going to believe them, I guess.
A decent Monday afternoon - after a productive morning, I’m now going through Human Defense Force models and figuring out my lists for Grimdark Future Firefight ( from @onepagerules.bsky.social ) and my potential color scheme. Luckily, my supervisor is feeling a bit sleepy after lunch.
It’s a Genestealer Cults Sanctus model with a simple head swap. Plus I got rid of his weird little friend.
I really only took one photo during TMX this weekend - I shot a lot of video, but only one photo: it’s YouTube’s @warhammerweekly.bsky.social Vince in his happy place: running the juke box at the Reptile Palace on Saturday night after the first day of TMX. It’s like a tradition now.
Gonna be starting some new weird dudes tonight - Mage Hunters with Autoguns by @saintdecent.bsky.social and I’m looking forward to it. I’ll be starting in about 10 minutes at www.twitch.tv/tabletopminions if you wanna check it out and hang out and whatnot.
Streaming this morning - even though I’m VERY tired - and I’ll probably finish up the cool traitor guard guys I’ve been working on. I’ll also be happy to talk about our new game! Starting in 10 minutes at www.twitch.tv/tabletopminions so come by and REPENT
Also: Brotato - great game or greatest game? Obviously greatest game.
Well, it took far more faffing about than it should’ve - but I finally have Bazzite installed on my tiny Geekom AX8 Max so I can play Steam games with no Windows filth on it. And might I say: the faff was completely caused by the monitor. LG UltraGear monitors are jerks.
Here’s a photo that IS being used in the book - and some great art from @dkieliszek.bsky.social as well - all his art is pretty mind-blowing.
This shot probably won’t be used in the book, but it might end up on the website when we launch our next game - Repent! Ye Foolish Gods. Coming June 5th!
Painting classes at the Tabletop Minions Expo 2026 (June 13-14, 2026) are NOW OPEN for purchase! Check them out at www.tabletopminions.org/tmx
Hello fellow YouTubers: has anyone else noticed that the suggested AI responses to viewer comments in the YouTube Studio app seem to have disappeared? Or did I ignore them so much they finally gave up on me? They used to be under most comments.
Sorry folks - no Twitch stream tonight. Spent five hours moving the 2+ feet of snow we got and now my arms don’t work well. And everything hurts. This photo was BEFORE the plow came through and deposited a waist-high wall of ice and slush at the foot of our driveway.
My wife and I were out at a Thai restaurant last night and they had this TV playing a song and showing this image the entire time we were there. Two issues: I don’t know what this says and Google Translate isn’t helping, AND how is the little bunny listening to music on their headphones?
There’s been a lot of fog here the past few days, and I finally got time last night to drive around in it and take some photos. I had a good time.
I’ll be there! Meet your favorite content creators! Kick off your AdeptiCon by talking shop with inspiring hobbyists from across the community. Wednesday March 25th, 5 - 8 p.m, outside Baird Ballroom on the 4th Floor.
Now, I just find awesome stuff on MyMiniFactory and 3D print it - it looks great. WIP:
I got a big-damn box of The Damned sprues today from @wargamesatlantic.bsky.social - George has checked and confirmed that it fulfills my Gamefound order. And the models look great, too.
I might be a touch late to stream today - I have a Rex on my lap. In theory, I’ll start in about 10 minutes or so at www.twitch.tv/tabletopminions and I’ll continue painting some Trench Crusade terrain from @corvusgamesterrain.bsky.social - but I might be late.
100 megapixel cat photo? Of course - I assume that’s what it’s made for.
Human artists, use only once piece to convince people to follow you! This is the only display piece I ever painted. I usually paint more tabletop-play oriented stuff.
Getting closer to midnight - I’m a little suspicious about the upcoming year but I’m hoping for better. Happy New Year.
