Not hiding a group of velociraptors per se, but I did give my best friend Emily all my old 5th edition Warhammer fantasy Lizardmen and now she has a thriving hobby to do with her big bi best friend, me.
I AM LGBT AND I SUPPORT LGBT AND I DEFINITELY AM NOT HIDING A GROUP IF VELOCIRAPTORS IN MY BEDROOM CUPBOARD!!! *Leans on the door of my bedroom cupboard, dinosaur sounds coming from within* *whispers at the door* shhh be quiet or else they'll know

Close ups of the Warriors of Chaos army. Still need to finish basing a lot of them.
Egrimm Van Horstmann. I painted this last year for a contest.
My dog Franky, the chosen one, the Goodest Boy.
He’s named after the One Piece character.
He looks extra Jesusy in this photo.
Nice!
"Reiksguard Knights, your Emperor is calling! Death or glory await us, but if we die, we will die as warriors, with swords in hand, and there can be no better death than that."
Some Reiksguard models I painted up for my buddy Alex.
I love when Grimgor Ironhide checked the hubris of both Valten (and Karl Franz) and Archaon the Everchosen at the conclusion of the Storm of Chaos (global) campaign for Warhammer Fantasy Battles 6th Edition. Just smacked both of them around to prove a point and then left. What was that point? That both of them had made a terrible error not considering Grimgor and his ‘Ardboyz as the main threat.
Also Vardek Crom trying to take his army through Sylvania was equally a dumb idea.
Here are some very old paint jobs from when I played in that campaign!
An Amazon purchase, a 3D print that I painted up for our Lost Mines D&D 5E campaign. The second floor has an area for gaming (I decided) here you can see Texas Hold-Em, Roulette, and of course…. BLOOD BOWL!
Some updated shots of the Waaagh! With some closer shots of the named characters I have as well!
Close ups of the Orcs and Goblins army. I need to finish the bases on a lot of these and it’s my least favorite part. Buy flock in bulk: my advice

Artist Adam Huenecke recently used his love for both ’80s sitcoms and tabletop wargaming as inspiration for a series of figures imagining the eponymous Golden Girls as battle-hardened warriors in the service of Warhammer 40K’s grimdark Imperium of Man. And while not the most obvious peanut butter cup-style pairing, the results are incredible.
“I’m a massive Golden Girls fan, so I can think of no better leadership for my Adeptus Sororitas,” Huenecke said via Instagram caption on Jan. 26. “I’ve been working through this concept for years and I’m excited to finally have it accomplished.”
Speaking to Polygon, Huenecke said the crossover was a natural result of being a lifelong fan of The Golden Girls and miniature painting. His dream was helped along by a digital sculptor at tabletop company Black Site Studios, who modeled the figures’ custom heads. Black Site Studios has since made the heads available as digital models for a small fee.
“Once I had the head sculpts, I printed out a bunch of reference pictures to try to do their faces justice,” Huenecke told me through email. “I had to digitally sculpt Sophia’s purse (carried by the cherub), which I’m not very good at so it took forever. Otherwise, I had to modify the miniatures a little to fit some of the characteristics of each Girl: I made Dorothy a little taller, Sophia much shorter, etc.”
Due to the Golden Girls dressing as nuns at various points in the series, Huenecke figured Warhammer 40K’s pseudo-religious Sisters of Battle were a “natural fit,” and went about choosing models he felt matched their unique characteristics. Sophia “runs the show,” much like a senior officer known as a Cannoness, Dorothy is modeled after the discipline-focused Dogmata due to students nicknaming her “Attila the Sub” when she teaches high school, Rose’s love for telling stories about her hometown St. Olaf made her a perfect fit for the inspirational Dialogus, and Blanche became a whip-wielding Repential Superior thanks to her often-physical guidance.
“It turns out there is a considerable crossover in the fandoms,” Huenecke said when asked about the feedback he’s received. “People were happy to see the loving detail put into some of their favorite characters. The Golden Girls holds up over time; their humor is based on brilliant timing and great writing, and their values are surprisingly progressive, even by today’s standards. I think that resonates with a lot of gamers who have revisited the series. And honestly, if you aren’t a fan of the Golden Girls, you’re probably not any fun to spend several hours pushing toy soldiers around with.”
