Haven’t posted in awhile and haven’t had an unbroken streak but still been hobbying a lot!
Painted up 10 termies and a Praetor model to lead them. And lost my mind and started a blood angels army for some reason
#warhammer40k
kill all fake lovers
I've been revisiting this album a bunch the last couple weeks and this remains a real highlight
I painted something like 130 models in 2025. Got quite a backlog that I am now attacking in 2026! Death to the gray plastic! More games!
He’s right
To be fair pulling your bootstraps up literally or figuratively might be among very few things that aren’t much of a skill issue. Ain’t got boots? Can’t play around that. Born poor? Well.

Finally started working on painting thousand sons. Here’s an early progress pic and one from a very ugly funny stage. Also, yet another daemon prince kitbash taking shape.
Had a lot of fun doing something every day!

#hobbystreak days 361 & 362
Spent these days getting the metals highlighted and developed. Think I may be close to done on that, and time to move on to other areas for a bit
#hobbystreak days 357-360
Most of my progress over the weekend wasn’t actual models, but blowing up my hobby space and attempting to reorganize! Lots more of that to do still.
Last night though I started work on the base coats for the metals. Making red was hard with magenta, but getting there.
#hobbystreak day 356
Day 2 of working on this skin!
#hobbystreak 355
Put a zenithal highlight on some models and trying my first ever effort on 100% paint mixing. That shit is hard!
album covers for songs to be played on an upcoming radio stream: Boko Yout - Gusto Bullant - Late Life Circ Danny Brown - Stardust Young Fathers - Heavy Heavy
Very excited for tomorrow's radio stream over at twitch.tv/chanterelleton at 8pm Pacific!
#hobbystreak days 336-354
Finished up and took photos of the big Mek, finished up and took phone pics of the blob of boyz, and built up 15 infernus marines. Creeping up on one year of #hobbystreak !
#hobbystreak days 332 - 335
Got skin tones mostly blocked in on 20 boyz, and added some transfers and a bit of weathering to the big mek
#hobbystreak days 329-331
Still working away on the Big Mek!
Lots left to do, but feel like this electricity effect added a lot
#hobbystreak day 327-328
No glamor shots yet but working on the skin and some random base coats and under painting on other stuff while the skin dries. Face sold separately
#hobbystreak day 326
Feeling a little stun locked by details on the big Mek trying to think about how to push good contrast on him, so just got some basic under painting/base coating on this trukk
Gooses
#hobbystreak day 325
Primed up the big batch of guys and have only a pic of this to show for it!
#hobbystreak days 313-324
Finished building up a ton of models, and got bases built up too! Hoping to get all these primed and get started on paint in the next day or so. 20 boyz, tankbustas, breakas, a big Mek, warboss, and pain boy to boot!
#hobbystreak days 293 - 312 pt 3/3
Pic from one of the other new projects building up some beast snagga vibe boyz, as well as one shot from a close battle with the necron menace. Not pictured: very annoying magnetization on a new carrying case.
#hobbystreak days 293 - 312 pt 2/3
Grass touching edition, mostly fiddling around with lists and driving my car on da highway
#hobbystreak days 293 - 312 pt 1/3
Some very light and very heavy hobby days in here! Finished up my big diorama, organized hobby space, played a game with a friend, and touched some grass for a few days.

I’m back from California. We looked snazzy at the wedding 😎
Thank you! I feel like I just kind of put paint on him without much of a plan and was really pleased with my results going by feel. Lots of experiments but totally going by vibes where my normal process is a lot more intentional
