This week's theme is Bonk! I still need to finish this guy (one day, when the sun finally hides behind the clouds again), but I'm pretty happy with him so far #Nerdlings #FindFolkFriday

A Freeguild Gallent from Warhammer: Age of Sigmar's Cities of Sigmar range

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Jul 14

This is a slightly old photo, but my hope is that it will eventually cool down in the UK so I can finish painting these #CityOfSigmar Gallants for #AgeOfSigmar . . . #nerdlings #warhammer

Next up, The Return of the King by Tolkien. My quest to read the whole of LotR is a little closer to being completed!

The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien

Now onto Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur! I've never quite managed to get into poetry, but I've heard good things about her work so hopefully this might be the one that changes that!

I finished off Aestred Thurga: Pyre of Faith by Danie Ware last night. It's a great read, and I'll have to check out more of Danie's books soon. Since we've still got a few days before the end of Pride, I'm now reading Nevada by Imogen Binnie. This is one of my favourites and I can't wait to dive in

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Jun 19

I'm finally finished with The Two Towers, now it's time to move onto Aestred Thurga: Pyre of Faith by Danie Ware!

Limited edition cover of Aestred Thurga: Pyre of Faith

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· May 27

Forgot to post a photo of the edition of Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers that I'm reading. I'm a couple of chapters in and it's time to meet the Ents

On to Things From The Flood by Simon Stålenhag!

A book cover depicting a robot standing in a pool in an autumnal wood. The robot is looking towards the viewer and is wrapped in a Jurassic Park towel like a cloak. A small circle says "Now an Amazon Original Series Prime Video". White text below the image says "Simon Stålenhag Things From The Flood" in all caps

I've finished Fun Home by Alison Bechdel. What a read! I'm not sure what I'm going to move onto next (I have quite a few library books to finish), but I think Fun Home is going to stay with me for a while

Fun Home by Alison Bechdel. The photo depicts the cover of Fun Home by Alison Bechdel. The cover is blue and features a letter on a platter, resting on a table. There is a lamp next to it. The letter says Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic. White letters at the bottom of the image read Alison Bechdel

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· May 10

A month later, and I've finally finished The Dark Coil: Damnation. It was honestly some of the best 40k writing I've read that wasn't by Dan Abnett. Next I'll be moving onto Fun Home by Alison Bechdel!

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Apr 19

Finished off a #CitiesOfSigmar test model today. I quite like how it has turned out, painting the purple was load of fun. Now I need to figure out the basing scheme... . . . . . #nerdlings #AgeOfSigmar #AoS #Painting #Warhammer

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Apr 3

Because I'm trying to maintain some accountability, here's the books I have read so far this year: •The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien •Mother Mary Comes to Me by Arundhati Roy •The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien I'm now moving onto The Dark Coil: Damnation by Peter Fehervari

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Mar 23

Finally played my first game of the #mesbg slow grow that I'm involved with today. My #Rohan got absolutely crushed by #Isengard (16-4!), but I still had a great time. Now I just need to build up my forces for my next list! #nerdlings

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Mar 15

I've posted them more or less everywhere else, but here's 350pts of #Rohan I've painted for a slow-grow league I'm in. I'm very happy with how Theoden and Aragorn came out. . . . #nerdlings #lotr #mesbg

Nine games that were foundational to me. I think this selection really shows that a) I grew up in a small town where nothing happens, b) I was born in the late 90s and c) I am a socialist

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Feb 8

I finally finished my first models of 2026 the other day. Meet "The Wild Goose Chasers" an Altdorf warband for #Mordheim. I can't wait to get them on the table. #nerdlings #warhammer #painting

A group of fantasy guard models from Wargames Atlantic. They have been painted in the blue and red colour scheme of Altdorf from Warhammer Fantasy. They are wielding a variety of weapons.

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Jan 3

Finished painting up these Questor Soulsworn for #Warcry. They were a fun group to paint up, a small unit of "heroes" which allowed me to spend more time per mini than I usually do. I also experimented for the first time flock and tufts on the bases which was an interesting challenge! #nerdlings

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Dec 30

Finally put together the dreadnaught I was given for my birthday back in February. I'm going to paint him up as a Word Bearer for the @goonhammer.com Open in May - I'm looking forward to it! #nerdlings #warhammer #40K

An unpainted contemptor dreadnaught for Warhammer: Horus Heresy

The photo quality isn't great, but I put together some more Word Bearer dispoilers for the upcoming heresy Goonhammer UK Open in May A mix of Chaos Legionnaires bits and Mark VI marines

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Dec 26

Favourite photo of myself from this year. Normally I don't like pictures of myself, but there were a couple of photos of me from this year that I don't mind too much

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Nov 16

Finally took some photos of my Dwarfs in my light box! I still need to work on my photo set up, but I think it looks pretty good at the moment although it might need a bit of a dust! #warhammer #dwarfs #TheOldWorld #hobby

A dwarf runesmith for Warhammer the Old World. The model, which has a grey beard, is standing on a piece of ruined stone, with a hammer held aloft in one hand and a red-bound book in the other. It is wearing silver armour and a green cape.

Several dwarf warriors for Warhammer The Old World. They are in silver armour with green sleeves and red cuffs. They are carrying red shields with silver designs. One dwarf is carrying a golden horn while another is carrying a gold standard.

I still need to break out my light box and take some proper photos of these guys, but look! Dwarfs!

Casey Atkinson@tweetsfromlimbo· Oct 19

I still need to take some photos of them in my lightbox (and put transfers on, etc) but here's some of my (blue) 30k Ultramarines. I built and painted the army in about 6 months to attend a Goonhammer event in June - I should go back to them at some point... #miniatures #warhammer #nerdlings
