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.

"As a veteran of the Deathwatch and the first Aurelian crusade, few amongst the Blood Ravens have as much experience fighting the Tyranids as Lieutenant Cyrus does"

Kicking off today’s recap of the week with this blast from the past, an absolute banger of Primaris’d Cyrus, carrying on his mass Tyranid Slaughter from where we left him in Dawn of War 2. Houserule him some Demo Packs and he’ll be perfect.
Swapping mediums for a second while staying on the topic of Slaughtering Tyranids, here we have a wonderfully rendered piece depicting the protagonist from Boltgun getting in on the bug purging fun. This is rad as hell and is screaming to be hung on a wall with a blacklight shining.

Just in time for mid-Summer to hit us like a truck with all the buzzing, fluttering, dive-bombing, biting and just generally annoying insects that entails, we have this wonderfully gross conversion of the Necromunda Ash Waste Nomad mounts, converted into a huge shiny space bug by virtue of some simple but effective wings.
Ho-lee. There’s display boards and then there’s Display Boards. The lights! The smoke effects! The swarms of Orcs! If you told me the music was diegetic and just resounded out from the piece I’d believe you.
I had a break from my current project (I need to buy a plinth, then it’ll be finished) so I decided to rework on Greyfax. It was supposed to be quick, then I had an idea… So this is what appeared on my mini😬#WarhammerCommunity #paintingminiatures #art #painting #designs pic.twitter.com/vGGDmFNMcV

Keeping with some seriously impressive hobby, but on the sheer opposite scale of size, we have this Inquisitor Greyfax from Adrian with some seriously impressive freehanded designs on her cloak, evoking some wonderfully fitting baroque elements for an Inquisitor out of time.
Finishing off this week with another hardcore conversion project, this time really leaning all the way in on the mining aesthetic of the Genestealer Cults range. There’s some intricate pieces in here and we’ve been having fun trying to figure out the myriad kits that go into a single vehicle in this collection.
