I know what I like and what I like are noses that jut forward proudly.

Fresh off the painting table, an arco-flagellant and a medieval world guardsman for #Warhammer40k.

Warhammer miniatures: A man whose arms have been replaced with flails, and a man in quartered late medieval garb holding a lasgun.

Fresh off the painting table: Defender and Phalanx Destroids for Robotech RPG Tactics.

Miniature giant robots, some with antiaircraft guns for arms, some with barrel-shaped missile launchers for arms.

Fresh off the painting table: Space interior terrain for #Warhammer40K. Still a ways to go until I have enough to run a proper game inside a derelict spaceship, but I feel like I've hit a big milestone in the project, which is always nice.

Walls, floors, a staircase, and various generators, representing a rather rusty-looking miniature spaceship interior.

Fresh off the painting table: Jägerin from the Mörderin by John Blanche Kickstarter.

A miniature of an inquisitor wearing extremely high heels, a puritan's hat, and a corset on the outside; classic John Blanche stuff.

John Blanche has passed. He was a staggeringly influential miniature painter, concept artist, illustrator, and art director. A tragic loss to the fantasy and gaming worlds.

John Blanche’s cover illustration for Codex Sisters of Battle, depicting an armored female grimdark warrior in front of a horde of priests and zealots. The entire painting is in reds, yellows and oranges.

Fresh off the painting table: An Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor with bodyguards for #Warhammer40K #Inq28

Three Warhammer miniatures: a veteran guardsman with a glaive, an inquisitor with a flaming pistol, and a Tempestus Scion with a power sword and plasma pistol.

Fresh off the painting table: Chaos Beastmen for #Warhammer40K Beastmen - Homo sapiens variatus: In temperament as well as appearance they are often bestial, having a reputation for crudity, aggression, and indiscipline. Other warriors dislike them as they are rowdy and insanitary.

Four Warhammer miniatures: Goat-headed, goat-legged beastmen armed with a variety of nasty-looking pistols and melee weapons.

If you see this, post an anime you love.

Torquil finally decided that it would be fun to ride around on my shoulder like a pirate’s parrot. Now I just need to teach them to say “pieces of eight!”

It's probably nothing. #WotCstaff

Magic the Gathering card: Talisman of Creativity, the 40K printing, which features a mark of Tzeentch with a living-looking eye.

Trying Battletech for the first time since… 1993? My son got hooked into it, and these Robotech miniatures I painted coincidentally look like an appropriate fit for certain ‘mechs…

Well, I watched all 22.5 hours of Wong Kar-wai's Blossoms Shanghai. I'm not normally one to brag about media consumption on social media, but I'll make an exception in this case. AMA.
