Content We Liked: May 8, 2021

Although it’s a big internet out there, the Warhammer 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

Ash McEwan's Stylized Cursed City Minis @ash_mcewan via Twitter Ash has been doing a very stylized paint scheme on their Cursed City minis reminiscent of the box art and they look great. Worth digging through the feed for the others.
Mantis Warrior Bladeguard Veteran @krakendoomcool via Twitter You don't see Mantis Warriors very often and this is just cool as hell. I love the idea to use an Ossiarch shield. Just looks great.
Unsolved Mysteries of the 40k Lore with Dan Abnett

Arstechnica

This is more a fun interview than a serious one but there are some very interesting answers in there, if you can get past the obnoxious voice filter on the questions.
Gonders' Warmaster @Gonders via Twitter I don't know that I'll ever get tired of seeing amazing Warmaster titans. This one in particular rules - love the black and red paint scheme.
An insanely cool looted Ork Knight @mozixya via Twitter I feel like it's been a while since we've seen some really cool looted ork stuff. This one is a great mash-up of a knight and a gorka/morkanaut.
Nurgling Selfie @gdbmakesweirdthings via Instagram This is just adorable. I love the concept here and it's a fun mini-diorama.
This insanely cool Wrack Acolyte @Blackdemonstudio via Instagram The paint job on this is just amazing. Wonderful model and gore effects.
The Warhammerfest Comment Generator @justplay_ian via Twitter If you're as tired of the inane comments on the preview streams as we are, then this is helpful for taking the piss out of them.
AD's lovely Cursed City minis @dunkelbrauu via Instagram AD is doing some great work with their Cursed City minis.
LE's Insane Zombie Megagargant

This massive undead rotting giant is just amazing. Wonderfully painted and converted.
