my journey into Magnus, through the meme format (incomplete, bc there’s too much)
how I found out about it (April 2024)
i said to myself, this will be an excellent way to recover from a toxic private sector job, before I start work at the civil service!
that first episode
Perfection
one of my favourite episodes ‘book of the dead’
basically final destination on hardcore mode.
Discovering the existence of not-Sasha
Elias torments Melanie
get to about ep 120 “isn’t this the narrator from Slay the Princess”
Getting on to the end of season 4, looking on the internet for clarity on characters and finding a message saying ‘Peter Lukas and Elias Bouchard have been divorced 3 times’
realising I listened to 200 episodes in less than 2 weeks
This is not a podcast, this is hardcore drugs, and I am an addict.
joining the hype train
genuinely sad I missed the kickstarter. Though the fandom is pretty hyped still 😁
but there’s lots of lovely videos of the cast and crew chatting and playing together
and there’s a sequelllll, and it’s amazing 🤩
mfw the sequel is based on a a toxic private sector company, and set in the civil service
literally every episode is a banger
every episode in the last part of season 1 is getting me hyped
Ready to break the website getting tickets for the Season 2 premiere
So thanks so much @jonnywaistcoat, @rqbossman, @rq-producerperson, @anouchard, Hattie, and anyone else at Rusty Quill who is lurking in the shadows. It’s been such an enjoyable experience so far!
I am here. Because filigree metal decor goes brrrrr on this diamond venomcrawler. The pattern and general concept wasn't hard enough already to execute.
At this point its executing me with a shotgun behind a shed... but that's neither here nor there nor anywhere.
Also
I finished all the diamond pannels on its butt.
Please clap...
I have so much more left to paint, but at least the base is made already right?
I won't have to do that. Right?
But like.
Hear me out.
I might make a new base for this one.
You know...
It's not like I have so many minis to paint already.
But like...
If you don't fuck around you will never find out and I really want to try a diamond corrupted urban base.
Today it was born in my head: "No law in the Eye of Terror prohibits demon princes from climbing trees." And now Fulgrim is resting on a tree) Or maybe he's hiding there from his children, for example from Rylanor) And they think what to do with the tree - chop or saw. And then the father hisses and does not get off.
I don’t care that this man has betrayed everyone in the show at least once he pitches in for the team when it matters mostly then runs like he threw a grenade and I can’t get enough of his chaos demon energy, like his redemption arc looks like a rollercoaster but we got there. I knew there was good in him, mostly from the jokes he’s a funny funny man
I finished one of the two large plates of its armor.
And let me tell you.
It's taking so long my 3/0 brush asks for retirement and damages at this point... but like. There are possitives.
I tell that to myself every night to help me sleep. Otherwise I am wasting so much time on a mini I will paint and then shove in a drawer where I will never bother to have to see again. I will exile it and it will gather dust because I play Grey Knights and those monks don't have cool spiders with flamethrowers and tentacles.
They have bad dreadknights that look like a metal mom took its metal son to the park inside one of those chest carrier bags. And you end up with an adult man hanging like a toddler and not a warrior of the imperium.
Feel the wrath of the chapter's finest am I right?
Rant over. Back to our scheduled whatever.
Like I learned how to perform magic tricks.
Turning this
Unfined mess into the first pic while my moist palette looks like this
And I do not get how people make their wet palettes look so worked with. Colors flying everywhere and I am like
All my colors in a line and you can trace even the timeline on this.
It took me to paint this plate two sessions.
I am not even mad, I want to feel like an artist too. Messy moist palette and everything.
Detailed full body of a chaos demon for a client on twitter. Always a great time when I get to experiment a bit with texture and spikes!
If you'd like to work with me, there does currently exist a waitlist but I'm always willing to hear out a project. You can see my TOS and pricing on my carrd, and can DM me on either tumblr or twitter to discuss the project.
