Riptide 2x14 "Curse of the Mary Aberdeen" ★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆ https://trakt.tv/comments/878864 #Riptide #trakt

I'm about to watch Riptide 2x14 "Curse of the Mary Aberdeen" https://trakt.tv/shows/riptide/seasons/2/episodes/14 #Riptide #trakt

With the #riptide done it’s time to finish those #pathfinders. I mean, I started on them around last Christmas. But I’m also thinking about what’s next for my #tau army. It needs proper leadership, so I’ll need Shadowsun. But I’ve also been eyeing the (pretty good) stats of the Breacher team. I’d need a Devilfish then, for rapid deployment. Maybe just as well go for the combat patrol. 🤔 Ideas? Advice? #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip

I’m done! Transfers, drones, base and all. Sharing some final pictures. This was a fun project, and a great addition to my growing army. I’m particularly happy with how the glow effects turned out, since it was my first attempt at OSL, but I also see tons of room for improvement. Saving that for a future stormsurge. 😆 #riptide #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #warhammer #thegreatergood

RIPTIDE (Alemanya) presenta nou EP: "Carnotaurus Matador Massacre" #Riptide #Grindcore #Goregrind #Octubre2025 #Alemanya #NouEp #Metall #Metal #MúsicaMetal #MetalMusic

Battle report! 1000p battle #ultramarines vs. #tau with the 12yo. The table looked like this before round 1. I have a strike team and a #riptide in reserves. You don’t see them well in the picture, but Darkstrider and his pathfinders are in the top floor of the basilicanum ruins. 12yo has the land raider full of intercessors and eradicators, and a jump pack squad led by a captain in reserves. 12yo was luckiest with his dice, and got to start. To be continued… #warhammer #wh40k #warhammer40k

I’m actually quite happy with how this turned out, all in all. Sure, some things could be improved, but overall I think it looks good, I had fun, and I got to test some new techniques, specifically dip my toe in OSL for the first time. Also, I still have transfers, the base and drones to go. Now, where are those Ultramarines so I can convince them of the rightness of the greater good… #riptide #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip

First try, and this did not turn out the way I imagined. Glad I only tried it out on parts of the shield. I’ll basepaint over and try again. And this time I’ve actually read a little about glazing, so I’ll use lahmian medium instead of water to thin the paint down. Any other tips or suggestions are welcome! Where (other than the water) did this go wrong? #riptide #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip

I can’t really tell if I’m happy or unhappy with this so far. I think it hinges very on the next steps where I’ll try to make a glow effect from the blue-white light emanating from inside the shield. I have this idea in my head about how I want it to look, or the effect I want to create, but I might not have the painting skills to pull it off in a convincing way. Fun to try though. #riptide #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip

I still have the base, the shield arm (I have an idea for that one) and transfers to go, but the #riptide is coming along nicely. Now that the ruins are done as well I have a 1000p battle with the 12yo’s ultramarines planned that I’m looking forward to. #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip

Well, hello there! #riptide #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip

Burning light of the emperor, you say? Well, have a taste of the burning light of the Greater Good! #wip ion accelerator glow for the #riptide (which btw just received a very welcome strength bump with the latest balance dataslate) #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer

Riptide top-8 sets were epic. No regrets about not going to sleep until 7 am.

#Splatoon3 #Riptide

I blame all the ruins being built for the slow progress on the #riptide , but now at least everything below the waistline is done, and I’m putting base layers on the torso. Trying to do something with those pathfinders in between as well. #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip

Calling it for tonight! I’m saving shading and edge highlighting for tomorrow, as well as some details I want in retributor. I like the way this is heading! Also, the remaining pathfinders are slowly getting there as well (in the background). Problem is, they’re not as fun to work on as the #riptide. 😄 #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip

Child rescued from rip current at Aberavon Beach in coastguard’s third call-out of the day

The incident unfolded on the smaller side of the beach, where three children had entered the water. According to a statement shared by Port Talbot Coastguard, one child was caught in a rip current while two others were seeking help.

“Our dedicated volunteer team was tasked for the third time in one day,” the Coastguard said in a statement. “Responding alongside Porthcawl Coastguard to reports of three children in the water on the small side of Aberavon Beach.

“Upon arrival, one child had been caught in a rip current with another two seeking help. A member of the public entered the water and successfully brought the children to shore just as Coastguard Rescue Officers arrived on scene.”

No injuries were reported, but the incident has prompted renewed calls for public awareness about rip currents — fast-moving channels of water that can quickly carry swimmers away from the shore, even in calm conditions.

Aberavon Beach is patrolled by RNLI lifeguards during the summer months, typically from May to September, with specific dates and times varying each year. The lifeguard station is located on the promenade in front of the Port Talbot Lifeboat Station, and patrols usually run daily from 10am to 6pm during peak season2.

The rescue comes just weeks after a coroner’s report into the death of 15-year-old David Ejimofor, who drowned at Aberavon in 2023 after jumping from the breakwater. The coroner found that the presence of a lifeguard might have made a difference and called for improved safety measures at the beach.

With the school holidays beginning, the RNLI and HM Coastguard are urging visitors to:

• Swim only at lifeguarded beaches and between the red and yellow flags
• Avoid inflatables in open water
• Check tide times and weather conditions before entering the sea
• Call 999 and ask for the coastguard in an emergency

The RNLI’s Float to Live campaign also encourages anyone caught in a rip current to stay calm, float on their back, and signal for help.

Battlesuits incoming! Newest addition to the army is a #Riptide and with it I’m finally at 1000 points. Planning on testing it in my first 1000 point battle tomorrow or the day after. #tau #warhammercommunity #Warhammer40k #wh40k #MiniaturePainting #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #wip
