I'm trying to keep a rolling post of "Hobby News" I noticed during the week which goes live on Friday mornings :)

... and I really do try to be not-just-Space Marines and GW

Cathay goes up for order from Big Dubz - it's the first big totally new The Old World thing ... faction ... I think?

There's a new Black Templar Ancient upcoming / revealed

I spotted a first KickStarter for a home UV texture printer (expensive) (can print onto sprues)

Chris Perkins and Jeremy Crawford have (left DnD and) joined Darrington Press (the Critical Role company) implying implying DnD is doing less-well or that CR is doing REALLY well

Wow ... you know what? I'm surprised that there's never been an official MineCraft biome for dinosaurs

Games Workshop has halted sales of their latest book because of scalpers (yay?)

the Kill Team set with the AdMech and Tyranids is up for sale on Saturday

... which means that the standalone Sanctifiers are going up for sale as well ... which is nice ...

BadSquiddo sold out of TurkeyMen at UKGE

Duncan Rhodes is doing a third set of paints on KS. Looks like the same recipe but the colours are more like a Zorn palette

"Rapid Fire Dice Box" is gearing up for a KS with the fantasy skins for the boxes. (These are dice counters not rollers)

TOW has a Beastman Shaman with Pet, so, I'm curious about that

BugMan's has reopened - they have branded liquor now

the Spearhead releases continue to recycle WarCry and UnderWorlds sprues which is a delight and a concern

GW's free mini is a Royal Guard Skeleton

Trench Crusade seems to be on track to release on time

Trench Crusade did corporate teasing about plastic kits with Archon Studios and tanks - two separate things that they're totally not doing because if they were the contracts would say "shush"

seems to be a new "Captain Centos" leak

Omni6 is on KS - it's table-toppers. I feel that's a bit excessive for 3d printing ... but the Omni5 felt redundant after Omni4's shelves, and, Omni3 seemed silly after Omni2 ...

They will be given as swaps at Girl Guide camp.

Doing the office fire safety training ... and I'm reminded of the time in dorms when someone kept setting fires, we'd use the "break to open" fire exits and the building manager got mad after the third or fourth time and wrapped a bike lock around them to keep people from using them.

I hope he's not okay

this girl at uni was dressed sooo gay and then i found out she's just straight with a lesbian mom. dykebaiting is not a victimless crime 😔

I kind of hate 3d printing as a subculture

I have a 3d printer. It doesn't work. When I ask for help people explain that theirs works and give me silly explanations.

So

So I'm not happy. I don't like it. It's all guys with bigger BBQs, and, I want my silly little toys and precise widgets; not another dick measuring contest.

Anyway; my current life hack is this silly little grid thing that I can print to test bed adhesion. It's done with OpenSCAD in about 10 minutes. I'm going to hope it's a solution to all my pain.

Working late was a mistake. Finishing off the base coats was not 😍
