Oh man, you fed your tardigrade after midnight!

My boss once said, after a long winter "if seasonal affective disorder isn't real, then why the moment the sun is finally out do we feel like we're on drugs?" and it stayed with me.

A partially painted miniature of a djinn kind of creature from the game Destinies: Sea of Sand. He's a big one, his body is all sorts of blue and he's surrounded by sand whirls.

Since we're playing Destinies again, I want to finish this big boy for the final scenario. Still loads to do, but at least I started! :)

The final grim of this game.

We did it, team, we executed the Leech host! 😁
