#HobbyStreak Day 120 Four months of this streak (and <5 into the hobby itself). Ahriman was one of the most delightful models I’ve done to date, just a perfect balance of simple and intricate. Stunning detail. Pictured with a gorgeous @johnfrench.bsky.social hardback, too! #Warhammer

My interview with @alexdoddy.bsky.social is on Warhammer TV! We’re talking all things Deathworlder & cover writing Tyranids, Catachan culture & why Commissars have *quite* so many accidents… Also you'll see me miming several types of Tyranid 😂 warhammertv.com/details/25794

Well. Just look at that... #horusheresy #warhammer #warhammer40k www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articl...

Beneath the Black Cairn Ancient ruins, strange catacombs, and someone or something haunting the place... It practically screams "ADVENTURERS WANTED!" dysonlogos.blog/2025/01/10/b...

I have to go outside. It's cold enough that I don't think I'll make it past the the first marker.

“I am Junith Eruita.” You don’t look like Junith Eruita. “Well you look like… A HERETIC!”

The Pale Pilgrim walks for Legio Mortis! The latest in my slowly growing collection of Titans. #warhammer #warhammer40k #thorusheresy #adeptustitanicus

Still in awe of @chrisnaturallyrp.bsky.social's reading of my short, Veteran, and other stories from Darktide. If you missed it before Christmas, it's on on their twitch archive. Go and have a listen: www.twitch.tv/videos/23307... #warhammer40k #warhammer #darktide

I found this in the back of a drawer at my hobby desk. I wonder what’s in there…

📚 Last book of 2024 & first of 2025 @jmswallow.bsky.social's The Buried Dagger wasn't just my last book of 2024, it's the last of the 54-book Horus Heresy series I started in 2007 This is only the beginning of the end though. @johnfrench.bsky.social's The Solar War is the first of a 10-book finale

And Happy New Year (day 2) to you all! Here’s what last year brought from the word mines of Substack: world building, corridors, and how to break big. Come and have a look.
