Nice strong coffee and a freshly baked White Dwarf - now that's a nice way to start the day! (That Dwarf Treasure Hunters warband for Mordheim.... *chef kiss*)

I'd say that's a wrap on Quercus from @monstergirltrish.bsky.social. I've really enjoyed this little project.

Dragon waking bunny from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social, of course!

Y'know when you're checking out on Amazon and they try wringing every penny they can from you by saying "don't forget this" or "maybe you'd like this too?" Well the bastards got me...

An essential add-on purchase offered by Amazon: a 3D image llama bookmark

The Wood Elves should end up near the top, like a "bug-out bag" for when the apocalypse comes and you need to grab what's important

I re-re-rewatch BoB more than once a year. It's just one of those perfect things to put on and back-to-back.

Just trying to have a sit down and a bite to eat but there's all these Brits being overtly proud of themselves everywhere.

Spent my birthday on Monday up in Scotland watching Red Kites. Took some snaps while I was there, hope you like!

Sitting in a Starbucks this morning. Guy working on something nearby; I don't know what his laptop did to him but he's typing like it was personal. Maybe he just really wishes his iWhatever was a vintage typewriter.

Sat in a coffee shop as people's names flash up on the screen for order collection. The name "Maya E." appeared, so now I will live in constant hope that one day she'll be ordering a coffee at the same time as "Maya Ü."

When you accidentally enjoy a single video that turns out to relate to a community you'd never heard of and YouTube decides that's your whole personality now.

The gods think they can throw off my plans to build and spray models by sending endless rain, but they underestimate my commitment to Sparkle Motion. Puh-lease - I'd empty can after can of undercoat in confined indoor spaces WITHOUT bad weather!
