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.

On the Internet at Large

Flashing Lights Warning
There’s many reasons we could see to go through the painstaking effort to mechanise your Knight miniatures with internal working mechanics, but this by far is the greatest. Throw on 3d printing a transparent Chaos’d up half for some disco lighting, and one of the most banging tracks in video game history and you’ve got a masterpiece. Look at ’em go!

Mamikon’s Black Templars Diorama

Multi Golden Daemon winner Mamikon returns to kick our collective asses once again with this spectacular diorama inspired by the 40k 3rd edition cover art. That classic piece can be felt all over these Marines, which combine some buttery smooth paintwork with just the right amount of grime and Imperial Weirdos to evoke the Blanche style.

jayrhyetaplin’s Rogue Trader Red Scorpion

One of the things we were really hoping to see when the Mk6 Marine kit was released was people going back to those classic RT schemes and recreating them using the new plastics and modern paint techniques. This Badab-era Red Scorpion is exactly what we were hoping for, with that saturated red on black jags and early Marine rank markings with the bronzed arm and helm stripe. Wonderfully realised.

DisciplesOfAres’ T’au Enforcer Commander

It feels like Sa’cea rarely shows up in terms of the T’au schemes you see around, even the box art pushing them away from the Space Wolf blue-grey towards a much more royal blue doesn’t seem to have improved their popularity. But damn does this Enforcer suit make such a strong case for the scheme with its rich blues and contrasting saturated orange sept markings leaping off the screen, finished slickly with a coastal base that adds in some wonderfully complimentary natural tones.
