Although it’s a big internet out there, the Tabletop digital universe is pretty small and spread out. In Content We Liked, we take a look at the articles, videos, podcasts, and products that caught our eyes or were noteworthy during the prior week you might have missed.
On the Internet at Large
“Choose the darkness of the cells or the golden light of the Emperor, abomination. I care not which!”
This is a test for a small Adeptus Custodes Shadowkeeper project, trying out NMM painting techniques and flame effects.#WarhammerCommunity #WH40K #AdeptusCustodes@warhammer pic.twitter.com/GFM5xhszfY— Chris Buxey (@chris_buxey) January 28, 2023
LED rigging a mini is always cool, but to do it on an infantry sized mini (okay, a Custode but it’s still infantry) and going beyond the typical eye-lens rigging? That’s top stuff right there.
The tiny miniature arms race is heating up, not only is teeny tiny Robocop a hell of a sculpt at that scale, but the shimmering reflective metal must have been a nightmare to pull off at that scale. Spectacular.
Hell yeah, we’re always gonna be fans of bringing the minor Xenos weirdos of the galaxy to miniature life and this is a slam dunk of a weirdo at that. Can’t wait to see more from this series.
Finally, validation that the Megadrive was the superior, Omnissiah approved gaming machine. Suck it Nintendaemons.

So here I am,
Doing everything I can,
Holding onto what I am,
Pretending I’m a Stormvermin
