I'm super happy with the subtlety of the aztecing but I want a close-to-imperceptible third layer with a light smoke/metallic sheen before detailing with hull markings. So I'm bringing a Pike-r-prise flavour to the Enterprise G! This only took…a couple of hours 🫠

Any #snake people out there? We found this outside our front gate this evening. Very small (maybe 10cm), I moved it off the pavement to undergrowth across the road. Any ideas? (We live in northern Spain)

After Jurassic Park elicited levels of joy and enthusiasm I’d forgotten humans were capable of, I’m introducing the kids to the other formative dinosaur text.

Without changing a single line of dialogue, the AOTC romance would have been 50% more believable if George had chosen some cute goat things or bunnies over these lumpen turd makers.

Trying to get back to this after a couple of months away.
It seems like it should be an easy job, but scratching windows out is a long and hazardous process if you want them clean. I’m 95% there, but next up is some extensive touch-up before a sealing coat.

There’s a lot of swearing right now while scraping out windows every time I slip and scratch the paint. It’ll look FINE after the touch ups and sealing coat.🤞
