It's been a hot second but I'm back with my most detailed model yet! 🥳 I was correct that I messed up the scheduling of Combat Patrol and only just received my next set of issues yesterday, but it gave me time to work on this Canoness and gives me the space to talk about my next endeavor: I joined a local escalation league! 😁 I'll tell you more about that under the cut – for now, here's the glamour shots of my fancy-pants leader lady.

Except for NMM, this model is the culmination of everything I've learned so far, plus some embellishments to push it just a little further. There is so much free-handing with this one. 😄 On top of the white and red piping on her robes (because I'm an idiot and a crazy person who just had to pick the Order with the hardest scheme 😅) we've also got my first attempt at rendering an image from scratch and my first attempt at readable script. Why would I put such glorious work on the back side of the eviscerator? Because I fucked up but couldn't bring myself to paint over it and try again on the correct side. 😅 Eventually I settled on slapping down some script transfers and called it good. All-in-all, I'm quite proud of what I've managed to accomplish. 😁💜

Now, for those of you still with me: escalation league. 😁 Last week, I stumbled on a social media post advertising a league at one of my local shops. For the next three months, I'll be playing a series of games with gradually growing lists – starting at 500 points in April and increasing by 500 each month until July. Having never actually built a full list nor played any games, this seems like the sort of incremental approach that I need to overcome the overwhelm and finally break into competitive 40k. Also, having never actually built nor played, I have no idea if my list is any good, so here it is for your amusement. 😅 (Also, this is an open request for feedback: If I've fucked something up, please tell me. And include your reasoning – my brain doesn't accept "because someone said so" as reasoning to do one thing over another.) I've got the Immolator left to build and the Dialogus I ordered from the website got her delivery delayed, but otherwise I am ready to start playing. 😁 At least once a month for the duration of the league, I'll take a break from Combat Patrol and do a write-up of my experience with the league and, more generally, my experience as an up-and-coming competitor in my local scene. If I can get my Immolator and Dialogus built in time, keep an eye out for my first one tomorrow. (And if not, then next week.) 💜

Almost forgot to mention: gonna split the BSS, multi-melta goes in the Immolator with the Dialogus, storm bolter and simulacrum imperialis hang back to generate miracle dice and provide cover; Canoness can be attached to Zeph if they’re needed for fighting, separate if they’re needed for missions/board control.

I don’t know what I’ll need this for but I do know I’ll need it.

Bitey Boy : a study of speed

I woke up this morning and decided I was gonna get this boy done. Goal set, goal achieved. 😁 I just used various contrast paints for everything but the metals, eyes, teeth, and the yellow on the belt buckle. Even managing to get a practice game of Kill Team in I still got this guy from primed to finished in under 12 hours, a new personal best by a wide margin. Obvs still need to base and varnish, but at least the hard part is done. 💜

I dream someday to make a Battle Chapel out of a Titan – I’m stealing this to use for inspiration when that day comes.

Just realized that I never posted any Knight pics! Finished this guy in August, to be used in a mechanicus army.

The shadow knights in season one are so funny because, on the surface, it looks like these mysterious co-conspirators that flit effortlessly a few steps ahead of our main cast. Going undercover and infiltrating and appearing and disappearing when convenient. They're cryptic and ominous, especially vylad, who you can't get a good read on until later in the series. Everything they do falls into this obscure, greater plan that we as the audience are not privy to.

But then when you learn more about them and pay attention to what's actually going on, it becomes increasingly clear that its just a complete shitshow of 3 of the 4 members having their seperate plans completely backfire and fuck each other over and then also Sasha making a hamster big.

Says the girl who is making drugs, enjoys being poisoned, using her body to test the poison, cutting lizard's tails as hobby. Yes sure you are right Maomao Shisui is weird.

Sometimes you just have to laugh

Just let me say this: The La familiy continues to be the best thing about apothecary diaries. Their pure inexplicable weirdness continues to be inspiring. You can do what you need to do and than laugh like a supervillain about it.

Why are you all so creepy?? Inspiring. Truly Inspiring.

This is fantastic and I’m stealing this idea.

the thing abt the artmb dynamic that’s so funny to me is that ART is a born-and-raised genius revolutionary who can recite all the theory and is very obviously imagining this whirlwind dystopian-YA fling with MB (its self-cast hot and broody picture of corporate rebellion)

and MB will tolerate this behavior for exactly three hours at a stretch and then ART has to knock it off so they can go back to watching its soaps

I have come to the conclusion that reading a book and carrying a book around in my backpack are two completely different hobbies.

I think she deserved an even worse punishment for messing with a kid, but I can accept social intimidation as a treat.
