Gabe Newell as Mr. House from Fallout New Vegas

"Why you see Mr. Howard, I have the files for Century of Steam. I only need you to bring me cold fusion so we can restart the Steam store page for it. Everyone works for me eventually Mr. Howard."

Imagine the Pentrex narrator voicing over the most inappropriate videos in THAT voice. Footage of tragic disasters, sex tapes, court proceedings, funerals, etc. All in the Pentrex voice.

I feel like my cheesy Valentines day card idea is "we could be lovers secluded in a compartment coach in the late Victorian era behind a steam train in Britain πŸ‘©β€β€οΈβ€πŸ’‹β€πŸ‘¨" (thanks Rapido UK for that brain worm 🀣)

A modified photo of the Union Pacific's "Experience the Union Pacific" exhibition car, which now reads "EAT THE ONION".

I made this a long time ago and I think people here will appreciate it.

Colored pencil sketches of Minerva Mink in a blue jumpsuit.

Another stab at a 1970's Minerva Mink. Surely she's the biggest groupie of the Laurel Canyon troubadours. A fiend of the disco halls. She can groove like no other, and is the life of the party.

Just don't ask what she's planning to do with all those plaster casting supplies. 🫣 #furryart

You know what both remind me of Hollywood and Werewolves? "Moon Over Minerva" and "Werewolves of London"! (This made a lot more sense in my head, would probably come out better if my mink was more on-model). #furryart

I'm less of a "date 1 kisser" guy and prefer my romantic stories to be about socially awkward guys pining after a woman for a decade in such a slow burn... that the film cuts the plot entirely (will duel for her after the 1st date though). 🀣

But you do you I guess.

Let me just direct you to @rapidotrains.co.uk and cry for your wallet.

You can give a mouse a locomotive, but then he'll ask for a matching fleet of Evolution coaches... πŸ€ͺ

* The first train set
* The first weathered car
* The narrow gauge experimentation
* Unfinished modular
* Taste of N scale
* The OO scale importing
