Been a little busy with Adepticon prep, Adepticon, and life. However, I've been invigorated to work on minis after the con! Lots of assembly, but I have been painting Protoss for #starcrafttmg. Was inspired to do better with my painting at the con and really think I did!
#miniatures #minipainting
Surprise project! Finished a full force for #fullspectrumdominance. This was a pretty fast, but fun project. Hoping to get a game at Adepticon, so painted them up. Might make it a goal to do more FSD this year now....Definitely want to play the solo/coop mode
#miniatures #minipainting
Finished up my last mini to have a fully painted Pact force for #zeogenesis. At first I wasn't the biggest fan of the color scheme, but few tweaks later, I adore it. The odd colors really accent the non-traditional mech shapes, I feel
#miniatures #minipainting
Got to play a game of Warzone with a friend today (and actually remembered to take photos). My Mishima vs. Imperials. Turns out Trenchers are brutal, but snagged the win!
#miniatures #warzoneeternal
Made great progress on one of my 2026 goal today; to finish 2 fully painted forces for Warzone Eternal and Zeo Genesis. Settled on a scheme for my Guardcorp finally and made significant progress on my Cybertronic
#miniatures #miniaturepainting #zeogenesis #warzoneeternal
Finished up my newest Shinobi finally tonight! Also took a group photo of all my painted Mishima. I had a great idea on how to designate the medic too, so painted white stripes on it. Of course I had the idea AFTER the group photos, haha
#warzoneeternal #miniatures #miniaturepainting
I always knew Warzone existed, but never got into the IP (although Prodos was tempting....). It's been fun to experience it for the first time and these minis do look great! Really fun game, but I'm also biased towards skirmish games, haha
Also, for reference, new Shinobi are the Snaptrayz ones and old are the original siocast. Details are MUCH crisper! No flash too, so big win, haha
Still WIP, but really happy with the changes I'm making to my Shinobi and Shadow Walkers for #warzoneeternal. First 2 photos are the new process and the last 1 is the old. They're subtle changes, but sometimes even subtle ones make big impacts! Adepticon here I come

At Whipple where expired dicks are being thrown at ICE vehicles and those believed to be agitators. The area has been a place of protest since thousands of federal agents arrived in the city.
Near Minneapolis February 7, 2026
That's a pretty good idea! I haven't dove too deep into the ZG solo rules, but they could be applied to other systems easily. Which reminds me, I should probably try the rules at some point and not just play against myself, haha
There isn't officially, sorry! I just play both sides and don't use the reinforcement bidding rule, which I understand is a big part of the game
Agreed though! It's a great game and has some great minis. Truly a hidden gem that deserves more recognition
ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.
Played a 120 point solo game of #maelstromsedge today! Was an Epirian SecDef force vs. a blended Karist angels and troops list.
Karists had it in the bag and won the game by end of round 2. Was nice finally getting to play SecDef though and I have better ideas for the next list!
#miniatures
I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.
Hahaha, no no. I'm no where good enough for that nor do I have the time. Maybe one day in my life, but not now
Found out I'm fully painted for Adepticon (more games than time, sadly), so went back to working on my goals for 2026
Really loving the test scheme I have for the GC. Dr. Diana's are coming out nicely too

Mayor Jacob Frey: “To ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”
Finally getting back into the groove of painting again today. Got a base color on some Guardcorp for Zeo Genesis and was fiddling around with different techniques to paint my Cybertronic for Warzone Eternal. Both my big projects for 2026 (besides terrain)!
#miniatures #miniaturepainting
Finished a few more minis for #zeogenesis and included a group photo! That wraps up another game for Adepticon, so just a few more things and I'll (hopefully) be ready. 2026 goal is to paint terrain and have 2 fully painted forces for Zeo Genesis and Warzone Eternal
#miniatures #miniaturepainting
Got an Amaroq painted up for #zeogenesis now! Even got a family photo with all my Pact. Just need to paint some structures and I might have my Adepticon list done. Wild seeing only 4 models for a standard game (granted one is a giant mech)
#miniatures #miniaturepainting
Finished my first Zeo for #zeogenesis and did some more basecoats for Halo Flashpoint! Definitely feeling good about Adepticon prep at this point. Looks like I should be on track to get everything done
#miniaturepainting #miniatures
Finished my 2nd Zeo Genesis model; the Riyad. Tried a different purple and like it a lot better, so touched up the Skerpskutter too. Getting closer and closer to meeting my Adepticon goals! Just more ZG, Halo, Freeblades, more Warzone, and some Marcher left....
#miniatures #miniaturepainting
Hahahaha, yeah. The fact the mech/Zeo has that little poker and blade cracks me up. It looks so goofy (like, 'hey, buddy, do you like my knife? Got it from a local pawn shop. They swear it's real damascus steel!'), but you know it'll still hurt. That poker will be deadly too
Did some more painting on #zeogenesis today and some work on #maelstromsedge today! Really loving the Zeos with the color scheme! Those Kaigus Pact minis are so cool and fun to build! I did more converting to create an Alpha in the second photo. Minor, but I like it
#miniatures #miniaturepainting
Finished up this ##zeogenesis Pact Skerpskutter finally! The bases have lots of textures and was a little worried about what colors, etc. Turns out it only took me 15 minutes and I even got the front arc done too! More I look at this paint scheme, more I love it
#miniatures #miniaturepainting
It's WIP Wednesday and I finally remembered!
Got some more Zeo Genesis stuff this time. Unfortunately didn't snag photos of the Marcher stuff I was basing nor the Maelstrom's Edge stuff I built....Maybe soon I'll share those too!
#miniatures #zeogenesis
Not the most glamorous photo, but I really love these new Kaigus Pact minis from @maelstromsedge.bsky.social and wanted to show them off! They're so creepy, but cool. Can't wait to build the rest of the group. Also these 2 are the same mini, did slight conversion work
#miniatures #maelstromsedge
I think this is probably one of the best talks about the whole situation. A long one, but really good and worth it
That's unfortunately what I thought the answer would be. Tech companies will just keep being tech companies, I guess.
Shame about Mastodon. Was hoping it'd be better....
