Content We Liked: 9th June, 2024

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

Starting this week off with an ooey-gooey take on a sci-fi chicken walker, with this gorgeously strange lanky Tyrannofex by hivefleetmoloch and thestoryboardguy on Instagram, an incredibly clever rejiggering of the base kit. We especially love the stalk eyes.

Honestly we could just have a slot for Natman’s Lizards every week at this point, busting out incredibly cool new units out of genius simple kitbashes. We can see a lot of Dark Eldar players taking a similar cue to this chunky sneksoldier.
