Here's another step in my NMM journey. The background was created with Stable Diffusion and digitally blended into my terrain.

“I don’t want to complain, but sometimes I feel like dinner should JUST be dinner, ya know? Not this whole social political thing.”

First answer DONE - question came from insta! Quite happy with drawing all of that in a few hours :3

If you wanna ask Del something - here is the post: https://www.tumblr.com/aspiring-awesomeness/734639663585918976/got-the-time-to-draw-and-a-need-for-del-to-get?source=share

A batch of beautiful HeroQuest miniatures to celebrate another Friday 😁

One of the Orc warriors, the Dwarven player character, a mummy, a skeleton and a gorgeous piece of tortuous scenery 😁

When a kid has a great sense of humor

...and his parents are D&D nerds 😂

My stepson is visiting, so my husband and I are playing HeroQuest with him. The game is a simplified version of D&D adapted to a board game. Neither stepson nor I had played it before. It's fun! You get to make characters as in regular D&D.

My characters:

female elf fighter/sorcerer Sabine Bloodoak

male dwarf fighter Gronk Ironbeard

Stepson's characters:

male half-orc barbarian Fluffy the Fierce

male human wizard Jamal the Scarce

I didn't get the "the Scarce" part until Jamal started running away from things. And kept running away. 🤣 Dude was truly scarce.

We completed the first quest with only one casualty, the brave dwarf Gronk, who turned into a pile of 109 gold pieces after being slayed by a dread knight three times his size. Fortunately the other heroes--most of whom almost died as well--persevered and got a bunch of treasure, including a resurrection potion. Gronk is back, baby!

While managing some hefty burnout and also because my optician asked me to stop looking at screens so much I got back into painting miniatures. Bought a load of Votanns to paint because I love their armor.

These pair are from HeroQuest. Some models I rescued and stripped from the attic. I wanted to practice first a bit. I really like how they turned out. I think maybe I like painting single models more than units...

Probably my fave minis I have ever painted, The lads from OG Heroquest in boxart colors, with moons and stars freehanded on the wizard. This is probably the best skin tone I have ever painted on the barb. and the Elf's hair is just *chef's kiss*

The classic HeroQuest boardgame with painted miniatures.

Oh yes, I'm still here. I fought with gods and demons to get here (a Greek idiom). The work on the Mordheim table on behalf of TheTrollPainter is nearing completion. All major construction is finished. About 30 stairs, some statues, and about 2 wooden structures are left to complete the construction part. Unfortunately, the limited time due to other obligations is delaying me from starting the painting. I'm looking forward to putting some color on, so the table will finally start to look like something more complete. I have eaten the donkey; now it's only his tail (another Greek idiom).

While I'm Gloranthaposting ...

During our lockdown-era Glorantha campaign, our GM, Chris K. suggested we put together an entry for the God Learners podcast's competition to make some sort of Glorantha-related audio product. Weirdos that we were, we (Chris, myself, and Liesl R.) decided to make an in-universe guided meditation for the Lunar Empire - over a frantic couple of weeks before the deadline, and with the assistance of Tim H. (on psychedelic guitar), we put something together. And we won!

As context - in the Glorantha universe, the Lunar Empire are a hyper-syncretic, hyper-imperialist anatagonist faction who seek to bind the world into their semi-egalitarian empire, beneath the Red Moon. Depending on who you ask, they are either an empire of decadent fools who perform mass human sacrifice out of a misguided belief that you can reach a peaceful compromise with the corrosive forces of primordial Chaos, or they are progressive mystics who teach tolerance, mutual understanding, and transcendence, that we are all us. Probably both.

For the art, the only coloured paint I used was cadmium-free scarlet, an uncompromising, suffocatingly rich fire-red-orange. The whole image - and the overwhelmingly RED light, with only a cold night sky behind it - is meant to mirror the heady and overpowering nature of Lunar transcendent philosophy.

Mythic Synthesis Movement

The world of Glorantha has been one of the key determining factors of TES lore. But it is a shame that there isn't much interaction between the two communities. That is why I have made the Mythic Synthesis Movement, a Discord where one can discuss such comparative lore. Whether a newcomer or expert, in one or both, this place is for all, as the path of learning is endless! We are also currently doing a weekly lore playthrough of the Six Ages and King of Dragon Pass games - feel free to heroquest along us!
