Achievement unlocked: get something done by your artificial end-of-the-month deadline for once

in this case it's a coven of The Empty for Reign in Hell

[angryangryaces]

Finished a team of Depth Guard for Kill-Team

Plague Marines with some bits from elsewhere, most notably four Zinge Industries helmets.

don't give up

[angryangryaces]

brought to you through the wonders of my bad phone photography, a squad of "Aquilons" built from WGA Grognards with Anvil Industry backpacks, supported by sentries built from Anvil tracked platforms with Skitarii Infiltrator heads and guns from whatever I had lying around

I'm not 100% sure the sentries are the right height but I don't play Kill-Team at a high enough level for "modelling for advantage" to be a problem

I'm meeting up with the friend I'm giving these to tomorrow, so it's lucky that apart from the troll (which he will just have to wait for, between oppressive heat and humidity and puppy-related sleep disturbances I'm amazed I even got them done), the Pitzbog Steeljaws are ready to play!

Experimenting with sponge painting to give this Blood Bowl vampire a crushed velvet cape:

Started working on some Dark Mechanicus because while the current Dark Commune kit looks very good, it's also so specific in concept that it's a bit weird to see three of them on the top tables, so I wanted to build my own that would both make a little more sense in context and fit in conceptually with my Iron Warriors. This is a mess that currently contains mostly parts from Skitarii and Cawdor, with Delaque for the leaders and some dipping into the Citadel Skulls kit and the leftover mecha-tentacles from a Chaos Helbrute, and by next week will probably include bits from several other Admech kits.

This first build has two leaders, two icons, and a "mindwitch" who's actually just wielding a weird gun.

The heavy hitters of the Pitzbog Steeljaws are done, at least unless I choose to throw another layer of Nurgle's Rot on the swamp water

First time I've used sponge painting for scuffing paint, it's real useful

[angryangryaces]

also for clarity I have not told this friend I'm doing this and have no idea what he thinks of the Pittsburgh Steelers

so as a Christmas gift for a friend I painted up a Dark Elf Blood Bowl team as the New England Patriots and gave them to him

(we're both Australian, so his undying support for not just an American football team but the most American American football team is a little weird but w/e)

and one thing led to another

so now I'm painting up the starter box black orcs for a friend who never fucking paints anything

as the Pitzbog Steeljaws

So after four years, I've decided on an actual use for this blog: it's going to be my tabletop sideblog.

I am an adequate-quality painter and reasonable converter held back by a fear of greenstuff and if that causes any problems oh well

I am also a wingnut who gets too much stuff but that's, y'know, just how tabletop works

here is the terrain I've spent the last two days building and in some cases magnetising

Oh hey Scott Morrison did another thing that proves him to be an odious little bigot with the moral fibre of explosive diarrhoea. This would be news if that wasn’t basically his ground state of being.

So I was doing my volunteer spot at my local public library and there was a book on display called “The Little Grey Book on Sex and Transgender” by one Patrick J Byrne. My train of thought, recreated:

Upon seeing the title: Hmm, I hope this is well-informed -

Upon seeing that the cover talks about implications for democracy: I am now worried.

Upon checking the conclusions: Patrick J Byrne, you are an idiot and a liar and there should be a law against being as terrible a person as you.

(There should also be a law against publishing books on trans issues if you use the word “transgenderism” unironically, for the same reason that you shouldn’t be allowed to talk about race issues if you spend time on Breitbart, but oh well.)

Patrick. May I call you Pat? Anyway, Pat, you reactionary fuckface, nonbinary people are not coming to steal the word ‘girlfriend’ you toxic buffoon. You cannot claim that it’s unfair to women to have trans equality because some women are trans. Go crawl up your own asshole and implode.

I’m not mad at the library for having it; libraries have to stock a wide variety of stuff, even utter shit. Libraries even have to stock Ayn Rand. I am, however, mad at the reactionary fuckface who wrote it and the dumbshit publisher who printed it.

(A bit of checking tells me that the same publisher, Wilkinson Press, is responsible for Mark “Outlaw Being Trans” Latham’s book, a compilation of Pauline Hanson’s bullshit, a bunch of whining about a “male-bashing society”, and “How Political Correctness is Destroying Australia”, so at least they’re consistent! Although it turns out consistency is not a virtue when you are consistently shit.)

The soup is just too hot!

Is hot soup gonna be erratad to be food subtype

It doesn’t have the sac for life ability.

[angryangryaces]

and here I thought you were issuing a Hot Take

the fact that there are ducktales fandom shipping donald and mickey is so weird because it’s the most basic cartoon romance ever. like imagine shipping homer and marge

[angryangryaces]

That’s a pretty solid list of D&D character priorities, too.

every culture has their ethnic donut and every culture has their ethnic dumpling… humans be frying dough

This is going to be an evergreen tweet for a year and a half and then I’m going to have to make another one about Dutton, who is also an odious little bigot with the moral fibre of explosive diarrhoea.
