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.

Starting off this week with a lil' bit of stop motion. We've seriously fallen in love with JoyToy's line of Warhammer 40k figures and it's seriously cool to see them utilized this way, no small amount of effort was put into this and it shows with how smooth the action is. Well worth a watch.

A horrifying prospect for our next entry. We dread the day that Tyranids absorb the average Summer wasp and no picnic is ever safe again. Until then we can admire this lushly vibrantly yellow Norn Emissary from a safe distance behind a glass door.

Man, this is one seriously rad Jedi Master. Not just the gorgeous OSL from the lightsaber, but the subtle crosshatching on his robes and the slick but understated NMM for his armour. Just... look at it.

A real special CWL for you to finish off this week's community entries as CWL favourite @realironhand showcases their friend Tim's utterly delightful Kings of War Nightstalker army, a recreation of many of the bizarre denizens of hell from Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights. Seriously just click through and read it, can't stress how much we want to see this menagerie of madness in person.

Wilds of Eldraine Set Review

Painting and Modelling

Skails recounts this year's Smash Bash conversion challenge, including their own disgustingly porcine entry as well as the top place winners.

Other Cool Stuff

We've got a bunch of Event Recaps this week from both sides of the pond, as well as an examination of the new edition of World of Darkness' Werewolf: the Apocalypse and how it still revels in the problematic portrayals and appropriations of Indigenous cultures.
