A photo of ten grey plastic miniatures of the "Sisters of Battle" faction in Warhammer 40,000. They're all women wearing power armour and wielding big-arse guns, and the lore is that they're the military wing of the Imperial Church so there's a distinctly religious feel to them.

Man, I thought the Drukhari were fiddly to assemble, the Sisters of Battle are even more so.

Such fantastic miniatures though!

A photo of seventeen assembled miniatures in grey plastic. They're all wearing industrial-looking protective gear but their skulls are freakishly large and they're clearly not actually fully human.

Continuing my miniature-assembling spree by finishing putting together my Genestealer Cults! I absolutely love these miniatures, they look human at first glance, but then you look more closely and their heads are too large and the ones at the right have three arms. Looking forward to getting them painted up.

A screenshot from the cyberpunk-themed game The Ascent. The view is looking into a GIANT cylindrical cavern that stretches way down with lights like in skyscrapers all around the outside, with a huge central pillar covered with pipes and lights, and the whole thing has that very cyberpunk neon lights thing going on.

God DAMN is the art direction in The Ascent incredible! I'm so glad they added a photo mode so you can just cruise around and admire it all, because it'd be such a waste without it.

A photo of a game of Warhammer Underworlds. It's a miniatures game played on a board with hex tiles on it, on my side are three very large armoured warriors, and facing them are four lithe and much more lightly armoured elves.

I took Khorne's finest for a spin tonight, and while they ended up winning 14-5 (and are quite fun to play, to boot!), at the start of the last round it really could have gone either way. My leader had one single wound left and I had several things that relied on him being alive. 😬

A photo of six assembled and undercoated miniatures. Drukhari are basically evil space elves, the ones at the back (the Kabalites) all have spiky armour and helmets and are pointing spiky-looking guns, and the ones at the front (the Wyches) are much more lightly armoured (but still spiky) and have knives and pistols.

Man, I've been completely spoilt by how easy to put together the Warhammer Underworlds kits are. I finished my Drukhari Kablites and Wyches and good LORD I'd forgotten how fiddly the regular miniatures can be. The Wyches weren't too bad, but the arms for the Kabalites need to be glued in both at the shoulders and also the hand supporting the gun from underneath also needs to be glued, so you end up doing this three-way dance trying to get it all to line up.

A photo of twelve boxes of unopened Warhammer 40,000 squads sitting on a shelf (plus two individual miniatures on top of that).

A photo of my painting desk with a two sprues of miniature parts on it, ready for assembly. Also a piece of dark chocolate and an alcoholic beverage.

Tonight's endeavour is to finally put at least a small dent in my pile of unassembled Kill Team squads. 😅

Electrosynths

I did a song!

The initial track that comes in was just me putting notes manually onto the MIDI view in Logic Pro, but the drums and guitars are both me playing the actual drums and actual guitar. I recorded them as loops and dropped them into Logic's Live Loops view, and then recorded each section as a scene, which is FAR less stressful than trying to play the whole thing in one take.

Also, check me out actually playing in time with the drums this time. 😛

A photo of the three miniatures that make up the Warhammer Underworlds warband "Gorechosen of Dromm". They're three beefcake dudes, one's a Black guy with a big ceremonial headdress on and is wielding an axe and a staff, one has very Immortan Joe from Max Mad vibes but also with rocking dad-bod, and the other is part demon with absurdly large arms and big horns over his shoulders. The latter has a fist clenched like he's about to punch something and his hands and mouth are covered in blood.

And that's the Gorechosen of Dromm done! Very happy with these, I did actually almost zero drybrushing, it's all manual highlighting (look closely at the edges of the red armour plating for example).

Change of plans for dinner: out for sushi! So good, it been ages.

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying on his side with his head propped up against the wall, looking out the narrow side window that's beside our front door.

Beanie's keeping watch by the front door (he can't actually see anything from there beyond a bit of the neighbours' driveway and the giant hedge between us and them).
