Some Tips For Hobbying While Being Cheap And Neurodivergent:
Some tips for hobbying while being cheap and neurodivergent:
If you, like me, pick up cool rocks and want to show them off and have cool terrain at the same time: glue them into cool piles on a piece of cardboard to make landmarks. People have been stacking large rocks in piles for millennia to mark trails and denote distances. And now everyone can see your cool rocks on the tabletop!
Do you ever worry about mixing up too much Green Stuff or Milliput? Have a leftover epoxy putty project. Don’t rush it, it’s just where you put all the leftover stuff. It doesn’t look like much now, but one day I’ll have a four armed, two headed Chaos Giant because I keep mixing up a little too much putty!
Do you ever want to do make statues for your terrain, but you don’t want to sacrifice a whole mini to make one? Glue extra horns and weapons onto Knights and Warriors style army men from the dollar stores! You’ll have some convincing statues after just a prime and a dry brush or two!

I found the first Warhammer thing I ever painted, these Eldar Warp Spiders, in 1995 or 1996. I didn’t even know what they were! I would get the 2nd edition 40k big box with the beloved mono pose space marines, space orks, and gretchin, as well as the ever infamous and tournament legal cardboard deff dred in 1997 which is when I consider my actual start in Warhammer. Here they are next to the last thing I painted for a competition, a Chaos Daemon Prince, in late 2024.
The Bonegrinder Giant!! I love this guy, he reminds me of Peter Stormare. This one is called Herman the Hard & Horrible.
Here is the Age of Sigmar Loonshrine I painted a while ago and the Idol of Gork and Mork for size comparison!
And some more!
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
Several generations of wood Elf minis join together to become my Waywatchers
Went for the moon from Soul Eater!
I also finished these mangler squigs!
I just got this big behemoth! Tamurkhan on his Toad Dragon!
I did some touch ups on my old Grom the Paunch mini!
