On fringe colony worlds, in the wrecks of ancient freighters and in long abandoned facilities they lurk. The long dead, imbued with strange magics foul and corrupted, follow their master's sinister plans. Excellent minis from @diehardminiatures.bsky.social I legit had so much fun painting these.

Spent the weekend and a bit of this week painting some really fun old school sculpted sci-fi minis. Just basing, a few insignias and personal touches for each mini left! #28mm #wargame #tabletop #miniatures #minipainting #tabletopskirmksh #skirmish #not #warhammer #gamedesign #talesofthesolarwinds

Worked through my vehicle backlog this weekend. First time using oil washes nothing super crazy technique wise here but a nice variety for the table. #28mm #wargame #tabletop #miniatures #gamedevelopment #minipainting #tabletopskirmksh #skirmish #not #warhammer #indiegame #talesofthesolarwinds

Now that my core rules are in a REALLY good place I've moved onto what I described as the 'beating heart' of the Tales of the Solar Winds tabletop experience, scenarios and campaign play! What scenarios do YOU like seeing in tabletop games? #28mm #miniatures #tabletop #indiegamedev #not #warhammer

@rcnrocketchief.bsky.social look what I saw when I turned on my tv today!

From bare primer up to finished washes. Just highlights and basing and my starship crew are done and ready for a few Tales of the Solar Winds games! Next is a ship for them to defend! #28mm #wargame #tabletop #miniatures #gamedevelopment #minipainting #not #warhammer #indiegame #talesofthesolarwinds

John and I had an excellent game of Tales of the Solar Winds last night. A 5 on 5 skirmish on a colony planet. A few things to work on, but the core mechanics of the game are so fun it's basically just tweaking my draft rules and then on to adding variety through equipment and skills!

A few more pics of my favorite recent models! These will see some table action soon! #wargame #tabletop #indiegame #gamedesign #miniatures #minipainting

First post, let's share a bit of my last prototype game of Tales of the Solar Winds. An orcish raid on an outskirts settlement. They got a little more than they bargained for. #wargame #tabletop #indiegame #gamedesign #miniatures #minipainting
