Collaged photos of the front and back of a Retributor Squad of Sisters of Battle minis painted in black, multiple shades of purple, silver, grey, white, red, and gold

The Retributor Squad is done. Next on the docket will either be the Seraphim or the Repentia Squads. 88/100 #MiniaturePainting #Warhammer40K #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Collaged photos of a patch and paint covered black jean hoodie vest.

Use of my work break... repairing a button on some shorts and repairing a patch on my battle vest. I'm debating adding some rainbow ribbon to the battle vest after work before I settle in for some #MiniaturePainting. #DailyLife #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Collaged photos of the build steps on the flight stands. 5 bases with stacked cork. Then those same bases and cork covered in texture paste with 2 primed in black. Lastly all 5 painted to look like grey stone.

Photo of a partially painted squad of Sisters in black, grey, purple, metallic purple, and silver.

Made some progress on my Retributor Squad and got those flight stand replacements for the Seraphim done. Cork, plus texture paste, plus base paint, dry brush, and a grass tuft. 81/100 #Warhammer40K #MiniaturePainting #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of a pale palm holding a tiny plastic taco and a metal challenge coin with a skeleton drinking tea next to a dumpster fire labeled "It's fine. I'm fine."

I went to my monthly nerd brunch and one of my friends gave me a "surviving the dumpster fire" challenge coin and an emotional support taco. #Humor #NerdsAreTheBest #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of 5 x 32mm bases with 'rock' towers built from cork on them.

I needed a bit of a break from painting. So, I decided to replace the crappy plastic flight stands for my Seraphim Sisters. 81/100 #Warhammer40K #MiniaturePainting #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Sports (including chess...) are not segregated by gender to protect women. It's to protect men. They can't handle getting wrecked by women. #HotTake #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Selfie of a person with a dark brown mohawk, wearing round wire rim glasses and a red shirt. They're holding a green ammo can, while sitting in front of a hobby desk covered in supplies, minis, and paints.

I am freshly mohawked and the proud owner of a new to me ammo can. Minty mint condition! Thanks to the friend who shipped it to me! #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

To all the celebrities (not just the rapper) using their disabilities as an excuse; mental illness/autism does not make you an asshole. It just makes you a mentally ill/autistic asshole. Disability does not absolve you of horrible behavior. #HotTake #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of four issues of Combat Patrol Magazine, along with their associated Votann minis.

Me going through the mail, "Yay, monthly #CombatPatrol!" Me recycling the rest of the mail, "Junk mail. More junk mail. Lots and lots of junk mail. Oh well, at least I got my #Warhammer." #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Collaged photos of the front and back of 10 Sisters of Battle and 1 ammo cherub.

Sisters of Battle Squad 2 is done. Getting super close to the finish line. Once done with this challenge, I will be adding #Battletech, #DnD, & #MarvelUnited minis back into the mix. 81/100 #Warhammer40K #MiniaturePainting #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

4. I stopped at the grocery store for a couple things and came home. I'll nom and paint for a bit. #Battletech #Warhammer #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

3. I didn't stop for lunch in between, as planned. I dropped in to say hi to Bryan and pick up a couple of his Battletech books. Since it was an intro event and there was enough interest to keep the tables busy, I didn't horn in on a table to play. #Battletech #Warhammer #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

2. If they weren't on the opposite end of the county from me (gas prices suck), I woulda bailed and came back later in the week to order the exclusive. Got out of there late enough that the #Battletech thing had already started. #Warhammer #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

1. The line for the freebies at the #Warhammer store anniversary event went pretty fast and I got my freebies. The line to order the exclusive and/or buy anything went slow AF. #Battletech #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Added nicknames to things coming to me via USPS: Dystopian Comic, Ammo Can, Socialist Music... Yup. I'm on a list. LOL! #Humor #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

If any local (Salt Lake City) friends have an old metal ammo can that they might wanna unload, lemme know. I would like one for a non-ammo based project. Thanks! #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

My Greatest Gen grandpa used to tell GenX me that I'd get more conservative with age. Nope, I've gone further Left. At first, it was just society going Right without me. Now, I'm moving Left on my own. Still got some to go to catch my Leftist Boomer Mom, though. #Politics #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo collage of the front and back of a flaming bottle pin made from mini perler beads.

Completed with plasticard reinforcement and a pin back. #Perler #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of a burning bottle made from mini perler beads alongside a US quarter for size scale.

Made a quick design while on my break at the day job. Be the light you wish to see in the world. #Perler #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of a bunch of Battletech mechs tipped over with the bottoms of their bases showing, containing both magnets and labels.

Since I straight up suck at being able to visually ID #Battletech mechs, I have labeled the poor things. Damned good thing that I have small handwriting and Tamiya 6mm masking tape. #MiniaturePainting #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of a Battletech game mat covered in terrain and minis.

Had fun getting my butt kicked for five hours. I have the naked mechs. They will be painted after I'm done with the GW challenge. I'm responsible for the water feature. Yes, I have the sense of humor of a 12 year old boy. #Battletech #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Collaged front and back photos of an Adepta Sororitas squad painted in purples, blacks, and white on a grey pebbly base.

Completed my first Adepta Sororitas squad. My baseing experiment failed. So, hand made clay pebbles it is. I love the fact that I have a purple metallic that goes with the rest of my purples. What do you think of my paint scheme? 70/100 #Warhammer40K #MiniaturePainting #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

A shelfie of 7 various Egyptology books.

With the arrival of today's free book, Egyptian Magic, I have quite the collection of Budge's #Egyptology classics. #Occult #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

There has been construction on the main street by my house for awhile, but they've been digging for utility lines the last bit. The power flickers are driving me batty. Yes, I have a UPS on my computer. Still annoying when everything else goes out. #WFHLife #DailyLife #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Despite hitting the cheapest gas/petrol station in the city and using points to knock 40 cents off per gallon, it cost me nearly $50 to fill my car. I never let it get below a quarter tank. So that wasn't even my full tank. Fuck you very much, Shitler. #Politics #DailyLife #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of a partially painted Adepta Sororitas squad in purples, black, and white standing atop blue tack dots on bottle caps.

I popped the Sisters off their bases to try something new, once the parts are here. It involves a heat gun. Also, Vallejo True Metallic Amethyst makes for some cool armor highlights against the dark, Colour Forge Royal Purple. 59/100 #WIP #Warhammer40K #MiniaturePainting #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of a partially painted squad of Sisters of Battle painted in a black and dark purple base with purple cloaks and white designs on their helmets.

Started in on my Adepta Sororitas. It's my only army that's not part of the Combat Patrol subscription. Nuns with guns. When turning in my Space Marines and Knight at the GW store, I got loads of compliments. Definite mood booster. 59/100 #MiniaturePainting #Warhammer40K #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Photo of 2 six sided dice; one is bone color Sisters of Battle themed and one is crystal blue colored Aeldari Corsairs themed.

My dice can fight each other while chilling out in their storage box. I loved the blue gem color and couldn't pass it up. Sadly, the new Custodes sold out before I could get my pre-order in though. #Warhammer40K #DiceGoblin #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Collaged photos of a Wargaming accessories storage box with partitions and removable dice tray.

All hand cut & assembled at my hobby desk, with only a minor blood sacrifice. The guts of the gaming accessories box are done. It's not fancy, but it does the job. Now, I just need wargaming stickers (any, not just #Warhammer40K ones) to cover the inside of the lid with. #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts

Collaged photos of a WWII 50lbs practice bomb that has been painted yellow as well as covered in graffiti and stickers.

Thieve's Guild Cidery has taken its place alongside the brewery and game store stickers on my WWII practice bomb. #CraftBeer #DailyLife #ChaoticQueer #GeekCrafts
