Philipp Buchwald.
IT security by day.
Workshop by night.

Direct, practical tools & tinkering from Jülich. 3D prints that actually fit, homelab gear that actually stays up, minis with actually-dry paint. No fluff, no urgency, no tracking.

Dynasty Forge
Pre-MVP
A mobile game in the workshop. GDD is nearly wrapped; next stop is MVP. Blueprint stays under wraps until the anvil cools.
Mobile · Pixel-art · stealth
The Mini Colorbench
Live
Companion app for miniature painters. 106 curated palettes, 1399 paints across 9 brands, and a CIEDE2000 match engine that finds the closest paint on your shelf.
Android · v2.1.1 · iOS deferred
Adeptus Custodes Army
On the bench
Gold trim, patience, and a lot of thinned Retributor. The long project — one squad at a time, nothing rushed.
40k · Custodes · ongoing
Home Renovation
Pushing
Ubiquiti rack, Home Assistant everywhere, a homelab that doesn't heat the office. Wires before walls, cable-managed on purpose.
UniFi · HA · Proxmox
3D Printing
Brand
Everything and nothing. Dragons in four colours on the P1S, functional parts for the workshop, the occasional spare that saves a weekend.
