Today I learned that opticians are absolutely supportive of you taking a miniature to your appointment and saying "I need to be able to see to paint this" 😁

Onto my next project. This will be a used fuel pod turned into a tower workshop on a backwater planet with limited access to tech. The main components are the coffee can, a vacuum crevice attachment, peanut butter lid, foam core, and match sticks from a lot I got at the thrift store.

Monkey decided after swimming we’d do “Painting”. Which was lovely. Day round off with Chicken Run.

Monkey Goblins, she’s reading “Nobody likes a Goblin” - whoever mentioned it here - thank you, she’s daft on Goblin and Julia’s House.

I got some highlights down on Felix from “Daddies book”.

Sidenote: Her paint palettes always intrigue me 😂

A technicolour Goblin in almost poster art style.
Monkeys paint palette. I see a mouse resting between the antlers of a crying beast.

It is, of course, essential to choose the mini with the greatest number of back lumps when practicing skin.

What's 18.4cm tall and never moves? A garden gnome. What's 18.4cm tall and won't stop moving? JoyToy's Jaghatai Khan, now available to pre-order. The Great Khan comes with power sword Dao and Storm's Voice pistol. https://l.d20.ninja/mr2yzz59

A detailed action figure of Jaghatai Khan stands on the right, adorned in ornate armor with intricate gold detailing, holding a sword. To the left, a Tactical Marine in Mk III power armor is posed with a firearm, featuring a skull motif and a red backpack. Both figures are set against a simple background, showcasing their impressive craftsmanship and articulation.

The “Sonic the Hedgehog” film series proves Sega’s characters can translate to other media. But executive Justin Scarpone thinks that’s just the tip of the iceberg. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2026/01/16/digital/sega-sonic-games-movies-merchandise-disney-strategy/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon

I have issues with the way Games Workshop does some things. But I have to give them props for their stance on AI usage. https://boardgamewire.com/index.php/2026/01/13/games-workshop-bans-ai-use-in-its-designs-celebrates-record-half-year-results/

I've finished them in 2025, but here's some good pic of my 3 hunters finished, i'm pretty happy with them. But this year challenge will be to get better at painting tbh

Same miniatures but seen from the back with their capes.

"Literatura warhammerowa to takie harlequiny dla starszych chłopców"
Coś mi tam przypadkowo wpadło kiedyś i bez szału. Nie kontynuowałem. Zresztą jak widzę nieznane mi s-f które ma już kilkanaście czy kilkadziesiąt tomów to już potem ignoruje autora czy tam serie.

Taking some time between painting teams to fiddle with kitbashing.

Today I thought I could tell a story of two bit box hauls roughly 20 years apart and how they got me a full fledged Skaven Screaming Bell. Instead at first glance I might have to tell a story about scale creep. 🤣

A bunch of old metal and modern plastic parts. Both from the screaming bell kits of their time.

My local Warhammer Store has a Christmas Challenge.
And that's what I needed to get out of my hobbying slump.
I will build a winter wonderland for Squigs!
I started with the base and it's in its first stages.

Photo of a painting desk. There's a hundred millimetres base with some modelling clay forming hills and some unpainted Squigs. Also a drawing of the base and some building materials.

I declare today to be . To celebrate, I give you my mangler Squigs. They invite you to enjoy a nice calm Sunday.

Two giant Squigs with goblin riders and goblins scattering below them. The Squigs are connected by gold chains. Their giant toothy mouths are exposed, and one has a slobbering tongue sticking out. One is magenta, and the other is turquoise. The green goblins wear orange robes and are barely holding on. Some cranky mushrooms sit below the Squigs.
