Another freaked out dude. Enthusiasticly mediocre painter of miniatures. I like Turnip28, Tonks, 5 Leagues from the Borderlands, 5 Parsecs from Home, Burrows and Badgers, Forbidden Psalm, that sort of thing. He/him

More Pubcrawlers - got the first Whelp done, plus the Lump. Digital kitbash from Wargames Atlantic, Vae Victus, and Duncan Shadow. #turnip28

A digital rendering of a miniature. This is a robed rider with a pointed helmet riding a stocky pony. They are armed with a javelin, and there are spare javelins with various heads in a quiver. A long hood hangs down behind.

A digital rendering of miniatures. This is a Lump, a large monstrous brute, alongside a regular footman. The infantry is armed with a caliber and is slouched and robed. The Lump is enormous, a large body without legs, dragging itself forward on large hands. It has a long, blank, beakpointed helmet bolted to its head, and a breastplate with chains strung across it.

A digital rendering of a miniature. This is a Lump for Turnip28, showing the large lumpy legless body and dragging robes as it pulls itself along. The helmet bolted to its head emerges as a long, angularly bent tail culminating in a bolted on metal mace head.

A digital rendering of a miniature this is a Lump for Turnip28, and its blank, pointed helmet and chain-bedecked breastplate are on display. It has large, meaty hands, and is reaching forward with one while pushing itself with the other. It is wearing heavy robes and a castellated collar

Next Turnip unit in the works, Melee Fodder for a Pubcrawler cult. I'm planning Melee Fodder, BP fodder, missile whelps and a Lump, all in this baggy hooded aesthetic. Multiple source kitbash plus a bunch of original work (I just couldn't find polearms that looked *shabby* enough!) #turnip28

Digital models of 12 28mm miniatures. Slovenly, slumped men with overly large beak pointed helmets and hoods carrying an irregular mix of poorly made polearm weapons

A digital image of a 28mm miniature. A foot soldier of the lowest order, in baggy pants and thick hood over a large heavy pointed helmet. They are carrying a clumsily-forged polearm.

Played in a Turnip grand battle yesterday, the forces of the Eel King did well in the field, but we brave defenders of Krotz threw them back from our walls. Much blood, much mud, entirely futile. #turnip28

6 foolish frog soldiers attempt to stop a thundering pack of shattered lancers. They did not succeed. At all. Not even a little. Squish. Painted miniatures, 6 armored knights on horses posed on a wooden boardwalk attacking 6 anthropomorphic frogs on foot with shotguns.

Frogs peek out past the battered crenellations of Krotz. A painted miniature set of city walls with a ladder leaning against them. Several frog soldiers with shotguns are posed around the battlements, with a tattered flag held high. The flag reads 'LUTO RANAE FUMO' which in Latin reads 'MUD FROGS SMOKE'

Shattered knights begin their assault on the walls of Krotz, here defended by Tod. Painted miniature cavalry lined up facing half-ruined walls manned by painted miniature soldiers.

The Red Ribbon Society, blinded by the lies of the Eel King, joined in the attack on Krotz, opposing the rocket batteries of St Alamei bravely protecting the walls. Painted miniatures in serried ranks facing a ruined miniature city. There is a skull gate and ruins, and miniature rocket launchers and soldiers on the wall.

Change of plans, now I'm going to come up with the second cleverest avatar name on Skycards cuz my man here just set the bar impossibly high.

Everybody's talking about it

Two posts in succession, one from Frog and Toad Bot:

"How soon?" asked Toad.

"Quite soon," said Frog.

The second post is from Did He Die Today?:

no

The shore detachment of the mud navy is pretty much done. Gonna put some tuft grass on, matte coat them, then paint on some gloss varnish on the liquid mud of their bases. Yes, that flag is just a piece of paper towel. I'll run them as Wigmakers #turnip28 #miniatures

Painted miniature anthropomorphic frogs in British naval uniforms carrying shotguns, one is very large with a cannon in its mouth. A standard bearer carries a flag with the motto 'LUTO RANAE FUMO' which I think translates to 'MUD FROGS SMOKE'

Yeah not to be a cynic but I just really see this blowing over like the 99 previous 'unbeatable' scandals.

Got a nice picture of a Spider Wasp on my front door. It's carrying the paralyzed and legless body of a Yellow Sac spider. Spider Wasps have mean stings and are aggressive. Yellow Sac spiders have a mean bite and like to come indoors. Anyhow, trump and musk are fighting.

Bicornes and Tricornes, are for scoundrels and scrubs. A decent Mud Navy Admiral isn't going to grace the field with anything less than a Quadcorne. WIP for my frog #turnip28 cult.

Working on a turnip concept - Wigmakers but all frogs. I'm sort of aesthetically falling somewhere between peaky blinders and frog and toad. Anyhow, black powder rootlings are too cool to not do something weird with. 3d pieces from Duncan Shadow, Wargames Atlantic, and a mess of homemade. #turnip28

A 3d model of a frog person with long skinny limbs and a dumpy lil round body. He is dressed nicely with a vest, cravat, natty pants and a double buttoned coat, topped with an English soft flat cap and a short barrelled English fowling gun. Work still in progress, the trigger guard needs to change to fit his big froggy fingers.

Yet another advantage of a #potter wife - she made me some lovely little bowl/palettes. There are holes in the side for brush storage (bristles in water but at an angle to preserve shape) and to allow partial pouring out without tipping all the paint out. So cute! #miniatures #painting

I just caught this big ol Bold Jumper (Phidippus audax) in my garage. If my camera was better I'd get a pic of the shiny blue-green chelicerae. Quite a handsome little jumping spider! Trying to decide where the best place to let it go would be.

OPR Firefight Gangs of Eden - Security Patrol. I'll be bringing this pack of jerks to a Notcromunda game on Sunday. The heroes have an ability that makes enemies take a morale check or I can move them 6", which is peak cop, yelling "DISPERSE" to make people get out of cover so I can shoot them.

An Enforcer Bot, 2 Veteran Gunners, 1 Patrol Biker, 3 Suppressors, a Captain, and a Champion, 28mm miniatures painted in blue and white with some red accents. They are armed with shotguns, taser mauls, and assault rifles.
