I thought I'd do a little art vs artist with some of my favourite models I've painted this year.

There are a lot of wings there, lots of Thousand Sons, a couple of conversions, and the first two busts I've ever painted. If there's one thing it's been a good year for, it's painting models. 🙂

I hope this email never finds you. I hope a single shaft of light pierces the broken ceiling, giving life to saplings and ferns. I hope the old computer went dark years ago, and the office smells of moss and wild spores. I hope that you are free.

I'm taking bksy auto tagging this as sexually suggestive as a compliment to my painting. 😆

For context, she's smaller than my little finger.

Elephant & Castle?👀
My comic has a funny (and long) name.
A place we like to call "quintessentially British"
and the rest of the world calls weird 😬

Here's to all the weird and wonderful places that inspire our work!🍻

Nice trip to A&E on a Sunday evening for my partner. 😩
Luckily it looks like it's nothing serious. Just got to wait on an x-ray to make sure.

All I've eaten today is a few oat cakes. I'm hungry now I know he's okay and all the stress has drained out.

To be fair, he's fun to paint at any time of the year. 😁 You don't have to do him Christmas colours like I did.
reskeeting this from this time last year because, yet again, I fucking forgot to restock him

Look at the blending and the beautiful bright colours, it's stunning.

I'm not going to mention any names, but I turned by back for 2 minutes and someone stole the last of my steak.

In other, unrelated news, Fox has the zoomies and he's running around the whole house playing with every toy. He's very pleased with himself.

I have finally taken some fancy photos of Njal Stormcaller in the colours my custom chapter, the Lupi Silvae (or Space Druids to most).

Tried to use the new zoom feature at work today where it zooms in on your face. Zoomed in on the Mojo JoJo fuggler on my bookshelf instead.

Timelapse of a panel from my latest chapter.
There were about 70 panels to make chapter 18 😭
Lots of work!
The whole process takes me about 3 weeks from start to finish.

Hot take Tuesday! people finding exploits and broken rules in TTRPGs should be treated as a bad player issue, not a bad rules issue. No system of any kind has ever been perfect or proof against bad actors. And any energy spent trying to write a system that turns bad players good is wasted.
