Content We Liked: December 17th, 2023

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.

This one won’t preview in WordPress on account of being a Tumblr link, but it’s worth your time to check out this really cool Monster Hunter World diorama.

Another Tumblr link but also worth it – this time it’s a Sisters of Battle model being painted with tartan designs on her cloak and tabard. Great stuff.

I’m putting a Bluesky link in here too, which again, WordPress doesn’t want to preview. I hope they get it together soon because hobby Twitter has been fucking dying. Anyways, this Imperial Fists Primaris Sergeant with a molten sword is rad as hell.
