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.

Kicking it off strong with some Turnip28 kitbashing and sculpting goodness. Gross growths, esoteric accessories and multiple kits across plastic, resin, and 3d printed alike, all embody the Turnip28 spirit.

Elves rock.

Bubonic elves rock even harder.

You love to see someone set themselves a creative challenge and smash it, these models are seamless and fantastic, with a buttery smooth paintjob to boot.

A canvas like no other. Creativity like this always stuns me and makes me reconsider my own painting. Treating your miniatures like the weirdly shaped canvasses they are can produce some spectacular results.

Speaking of treating your miniatures like a canvas, we’ve got an absolutely decorated set of Stompas covered in looted goodness. What were you going to do with all those leftover bitz anyway? Put them on their original model? Psht.

 

This breaks my brain.  I legitimately don’t know what else to say about it. It brain-breakingly rocks.

Back at it again, this time with FIRE. Beyond the absolute menace that is the evolving RC Landraider, a lot of the other work on here is amazing too and is definitely worth checking out on top of this beauty.

This Week on Goonhammer:

Goonhammer Reviews:

We covered it all this week, from big boats and little tanks, to the future of Magic the Gathering (I think it might involve something with dinosaurs?), and beyond to the world of Hunter: the Reckoning and a round-up of indie games!

Competitive Play

This week we’ve got more faction focuses (foci?) than you can roll your dice at. We’ve got Deathguard, Thousand Sons, Chaos Daemons, T’au, and Deathwatch, and it doesn’t even stop there, as Killteam has recieved another balance slate and the Necromunda team have updated their Apocrypha reviews.

Stepping away from the grimdarkess of the far future, we also have a spotlight on how to play the nasty Dwegom in Conquest, the top 10 cards you might want to invest in for your decks in Magic the Gathering, and a look at why some robots are simply better than others in Battletech.
