This castle which appears in Chronicles of Midgard has a bit of an interesting history. It started life as a LOTR school project in the early 2000s but eventually ended taking up space in the owner’s house. #spreadthelard #miniatures #wargaming #jhbackdrops #nerdlings
Finished the skeletons I started yesterday and another 5 this evening.
I’ll do something else tomorrow, I’ve got a couple of undead characters to paint so think I’ll paint them.
That’s a wrap on my #burrowsandbadgers warband! Really proud of these little goons, check ‘em out!
They’re a mix of anthropomorphic critters from Epic Miniatures and GoonMasterGames - check the tags for more info!

A WW2 Italian Alpini medium mortar team painted in various shades of green grey (in an effort to mimic battlefield conditions and fading from general washing and everyday use).
Alpini medium mortar team, this time. Thanks to @sonicsledgehammer.bsky.social for all the tips on building and painting these weapons teams. Can't recommend his videos enough.

Local lad finds VBCW "too accessible" for most gaming groups, vows to fix the issue
If you want more @cassasshots.bsky.social episodes, suggest cool game devs for him to interview.
The artist that was supposed to paint a depiction of this meeting of the minds was poisoned by the Borgias, so here's the pictorial record of the Force of Virtue episode:

@cassasshots.bsky.social does it again, interviewing Jack Gassman, the designer behind Force of Virtue, touching upon lengthy game development times, the looming shadow of print on demand, and two aspects of warfare that most rulesets studiously ignore.

Actually, the temporal distance between the kits involved just adds to the naughty feeling.
I love kitbashing almost as much as I hate painting.
You can take a @wargamesatlantic.bsky.social WW1 British body and put a Perry Brothers' European Mercenary head and PB Men-at-Arms arms on it with minimal cutting!
The kits may be 13-16 years apart, but it works.
Look, ma, analog @opensketchbook.bsky.social !

A liminal space that's never empty of people, and yet even emptier for it
Ran a Chain of Command demo I did, with the rule book and markers @cassasshots.bsky.social gifted for my b-day.
The locals were impressed by the command mechanics and the patrol phase 😈
This would have never been an issue if playing live had never become an option.
In the words of Grian Chatten, if there's a better way to live, I gotta have it.
Gonna setup a Patreon tier or store type where it's just "buy the pod an army for the game you want to see reviewed"
Hams orcs are my favorite orcs, which is why I bitch about their designs so much (and consider the AoS Swamporcs not very orcy), but for some reason, I love these guys.
Maybe get an army some day.

There he/she/robot is, in their 3-point, social-media-posting glory.
I think Journos with their Blinding Camera Flashes are still in.
Some trolls are getting ganked
Our guest from the SW: Legion episode painted us this sick Cauldron warband + some shrooms (Knightmare minis, just like the goblins) for peeps attending the demo game
SPRU is *new* convention focusing on the indie wargaming and TTRPG scene. There are no big guns coming.
It is designed to support creators who are blocked from larger conventions due to very high vendor table costs. And to introduce people to how much more is out there other than GW.
