Ramblings #4: I actually, legitimately forgot this time and am not procrastinating
Hey. This post is coming out later than usual, so I’ll cut to the chase. Here’s a fun fact about this blog: I’ve amassed a considerable backlog of things that I want to write about. There’s a folder on my computer somewhere where I keep all of the photos I’ve taken for use here, and…
The painting post
Today’s the day. We were going to have this post last week, but Mother Nature had other plans so I couldn’t get around to it (immediately, at least). My paints have thawed now, so it’s finally time to actually put some colors on my Sisters. I’m starting slow; I’ve set aside my Dominion squad to…
The Sisters and the Forbidden Smoothie
So, I wanted to get a post like this written a week ago, but Canada Post decided that wasn’t going to happen, so here we are. The good news is that I can now post a real, tangible update to my Battle Sisters project (followers from the 40k world, rejoice)! This post was brought to…
Of Remakes and Reimaginings
In the grim darkness of the far future, Pokemon is still trash. I didn’t expect to be writing an article about Pokemon. I thought I’d scrubbed my entire life of this stupid franchise after the whole Pokedex fiasco; after all, at 23 years of age it just isn’t worth putting time and energy into a…
Ramblings #3: or, an excuse to procrastinate
Hey. Let’s just cut to the chase, shall we? We’re growing. A couple of weeks ago I was ecstatic to have gathered around nine followers for this blog. As of this writing that number has nearly tripled to a healthy 26, which is about as large as a small classroom. If you ask me, that’s…
Awful Space Adventures in Stellaris
…what I really wanted to talk about is a particular story I’ve had while trying to learn this hulking beast of a game. Grab some popcorn, while I recount to you the tale of The Second War of Yapathi Subjugation, or: The Titanic Testicles of the Yapathi Independent Commonwealth.
Incoherent ramblings, part 2
Hey, I hope you guys have been doing well. I’ve decided to spend the last few days taking a break from writing, following about two days straight of just gushing about Battle Sisters on paper and fighting with WordPress’ WYSIWYG editor. I’ve been filling the time with a bunch of other things, most of which…
Incoherent Wednesday ramblings
Hey. There’s not too much happening this week, apart from Twitter melting down about a Fortnite player advocating for parents to take responsibility for the behaviour of their children (yes, this is a controversial statement in the bizarro-world that is Twitter-dot-com), and a bunch of shitposters are brutally murdering a multi-billion dollar hedge fund in…
They’re finally here!
Last week, I played some Minecraft while climbing up the walls in anticipation of the arrival of my Battle Sisters kit. This week, after a shipping delay and a brief stint in this week’s national coronavirus apocalypse province, my Battle Sisters kit actually arrived, and my girls were just as beautiful as I thought they’d…
I messed with Minecraft world generation for a little bit
It’s been a hot minute. I was planning to write a post about assembling some Warhammer 40K miniatures around this time, though having the actual miniatures delivered to my doorstep is taking longer than I expected (as in, I ordered them last month and they’ve just been shipped today. I’ll chalk it up to the…
Oooh this is good advice I should resize my photos as well
Yeah, that’s crossed my mind a few times. I’ve lumped that problem in with other long-term decisions I might make…
Yo Node, you might want to think about resizing your pix before adding them to WP. If you’re going to…
I’m sure there’s an ork infestation somewhere on Hesperus. You’re just not looking hard enough.
This is going well, the second as you say is a massive improvement on the first. A not on the…
Not bad! Your second mini definitely turned out better than the first one – and you first one was not…
Sister models look great, would be interested in seeing painting for them as I’m considering starting them. Great read and…
Faces are tricky – but with washes and drybrushed highlights all things are possible
They are! (Though, all my Sisters have helmets because I’m terrified of painting faces.)

Dropbox is another free option if you end up getting squeezed for space. I tend to host my monthly wrapup…
