He/him. I like making stuff for fun. Almost entirely mini painting, with some food and some leather. Into TTRPGs (GURPS, Pathfinder, Savage Worlds), and wargaming with OPR as an excuse to print and paint more minis. I like cats and art in all its forms.

Survival is resistance. Joy is resistance. Rest is resistance. This weekend, try and bring some joy into yours or someone else’s life. Wear a mask. Donate to a community library. Give to mutual aid. Help someone get groceries. Give them a ride to the hospital. Community care will help us all

Continuing my #PrideMechParade with M'khand's UM-R80 urbanmech for #miniaturepainting of @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social 's #battletech. #trans rights or the snub PPC enables trans wrongs, I always say. The muzzle glows/lens colours were a complete but happy accident.

#miniaturepainting more #PrideMechParade, colours of the #nonbinary flag on M'khand's UM-AIV urbanmech from @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social 's #battletech. More fades, plus some fun hazard stripes (and a battle-damaged missile cover 'cause I dropped it). Slightly more orange than I wanted, alas.

#miniaturepainting my #PrideMechParade, repping my #asexual #ace friends with M'khand's UM-R90 urbanmech from @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social 's #battletech. Tried some more fades. Because I'm playing with patterns I guess we're also repping my wife's #demisexual flag with the same palette.

Continued #PrideMechParade with M'khand's UM-R70 urbanmech for #miniaturepainting @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social 's #battletech. The #intersex flag is one of the less simple pride flags (being anything other than horizontal lines), so I thought it deserved some freehand. Circles are hard.

More #PrideMechParade using M'khand's UM-R27 urbanmech for #miniaturepainting @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social 's #battletech. This one goes out to my #gay male bros and their willingness to keep the kink in pride that discourages fashy intrusion. Mixed way too strong a wash on this. :T

We're halfway through Pride Month and I'm more than halfway through my Gay Urbanmech project. But I have three posts scheduled for next week, two more finished mechs to seal and photo, and 7 more to paint... I may need to increase my pace of posting. Sorry not sorry for gay mech spam I guess.

Tonight's SWADE ttrpg, my buddy and I playing d4 INT characters, arguing about the # of birds in post-apoc Boston; Him: "Well we've only seen two." Me: "I will bet you any money there are more than two birds in Boston." Him: "I'm not saying there's ONLY two! There could be... Six?" Me: "... Okay."

Yet more glorious #PrideMechParade with M'khand's UM-R68 urbanmech for #miniaturepainting @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social 's #battletech. This one reps the #lesbian folks that have historically done so much for the rest of us. Bonus (mediocre) freehand of the 1999 Labrys symbol on the missile cover.

[incoherent joyous screaming] To be clear, Disney is Not Good For Art, but this is at least chemo killing cancer.

Hey, 300 followers! Kick me in a pit, that snuck up on me. Thanks, everyone!

More #PrideMechParade using M'khand's UM-R60L urbanmech for #miniaturepainting @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social 's #battletech. Ignoring as usual the flag pattern for repping my #pansexual wife, because I'm aiming for pattern variety not found in pride. Mediocre pan freehand after only 7 attempts.

Finally continuing the June #PrideMechParade of my M'khand urbanmechs with some @catalystgamelabs.bsky.social's #battletech #miniaturepainting. Here's some #bisexual visibility in the form of a UM-R69 (nice), because I think this might be the first time I've publicly stated I'm bi. Chair freehand: 😰
