My thoughts on all of the Female Adeptus Custodes and the toxicity of the current Warhammer Fandom. Gatekeeping is stupid and people should feel supported when they are more represented in an IP.
My Unsolicited Opinion On The New Custodes

It’s a Boy
I am still trying to wrap my head around this. Baby #2 is a boy. Holy shit. I don't know why but never I never expected to have a son. Never. Not ever. "Oh you're a girl dad! Oh you are going to be the best girl dad" was pretty much the only thing I [...]
New Baby, New Anxieties
It is absolutely WILD the difference already having a child makes in the way that I feel about our family being pregnant again. There's way less fear this time around. I know what to expect, I know that I can handle from now until the child is 18 months old at least because I've already done that once. Past this point is yet to be determined but I think all signs are pointing to success (we had Jo's 18 month appointment yesterday and it was all good feedback so I'm riding that high at the moment). Getting the news was much more excitement and much less fear than the first time around. This time two years ago I don't think I went more than an hour without having a minor mental panic attack about the fact that I was about to be a dad for the first time. I'm already dad now, and I'm enjoying it.

Drycha Hamadreth
Finished up Drycha Hamadreth this weekend. Such a fun model to paint. Can't wait to do more Sylvaneth units.
Baby Rejection: My Biggest New Dad Challenge
The hardest thing I have had to go through as a new dad, when my daughter decided she didn't want to be held by me for awhile. It led to some fights and some dark thoughts, but it seems to be more common than I thought.
A Thing I Made: Owlbear
Mom and baby owlbears. This is a model I painted earlier this year, very happy with how it turned out.
How I Learned to Paint: Stormcast Eternals
I want to start this post off with a disclaimer: what you see below are not good paint jobs. But, it seems like the best place to start is at the beginning. This was the start of my miniature painting journey, a set of Stormcast Eternals that I painted back in 2016. It was my [...]
