Follow me, risk seeing many #miniatures and #terrain.

You might know me from other places already. If not, pleased to meet you.

I'm a loving albeit nerdy dad of three, one of which
#ActuallyAutistic; #ForeignLanguage teacher and author; #language nerd; #MiniaturePainting nerd; fresh nerd to #Mordheim and #Gorkamorka, and aspiring to #TrenchCrusade; #humanities nerd; my greatest achievement is that a Warhammer Store manager at some point referred to me as the 'Jehovah's Witness of #BloodBowl.'

So we're doing another end of year nonsense thing? Gladly!

I'm not doing a per month personal retrospective, mostly because by the end of May my eldest was diagnosed with anorexia and that killed almost all of my 30m daily
#MiniPainting time.

I did manage to build a whole
#TrenchCrusade table, #Gorkamorka or #SpaceGits stuff, and paint some individual models plus start painting TC models in all oils.

Hopefully the other year will be better for everyone, including for taxing billionaires!

Dear all, I will only be passively present for the most part for the foreseeable future, so I'm pausing my #hobbystreak and can't do #MiniatureHighlights anymore.

The reason being, my eldest has developed an eating disorder and our first priority is, frankly, to keep her alive and healthy.

She's sadly a victim of
#Autistic kids having to fit in to a school system that doesn't recognise their needs, overly gentle approaches to bullying and commercialised mental healthcare.

We'll do our best.

New server, new introduction!

I'm Erik, warhammer.social refugee, Frisian midlifer, lover of
#MiniatureHobby and #TabletopGaming of varied sorts since the early 90s. I currently run the school #WarhammerAlliance and have been responsible for successfully seeding #BloodBowl in the northern Netherlands. I like fostering game enthousiasm.

I will retoot things that take my interest, ranging from
#gaming to #politics to #humanity to #nature. Always making efforts towards the positive.

Since the original post died with warhammer.social, here are the #10CommandmentsOfMiniaturePainting again 1/3

The ten commandments of Miniature Painting are

1) thou shalt always strive to not self-deprecate

2) thou shalt be proud of thine Good Works, for they are truly Good Works

3) thou shalt bestow on the work of others, regardless of skill level, compliments (just find something they did well) or emoji such as heart (any colour), heart-eyes et cetera, or other affirmation
