A man with a beard and glasses, wearing a blue t-shirt, is smiling softly at the camera. The background features bookshelves and soft lighting.

Well for once the sun isn’t actively trying to kill us with near 50°C days… been a fucker of a week, but thank gods the weekend is here!

Fun fact, RGB lights here. No gels used. 😄… although I have had fun with those before.

(Autogenerated) A shirtless man is captured in a low-key, cinematic portrait against a deep, black background. He’s shown from just below the shoulders up, turned slightly to his left so his face is in three-quarter profile. His head is closely cropped at the sides with a bit more length on top, and a full, neatly trimmed salt-and-pepper beard frames his jaw. The skin on his chest and shoulders is visible, revealing a solid, muscular build. The lighting is the most striking element: saturated magenta and cool violet-blue lights sculpt his features, creating strong color contrasts and long, dramatic shadows. The colored highlights catch the planes of his face and the contours of his muscles, while the shadowed areas fall into near-black, lending the scene a moody, intimate atmosphere. His expression is calm and composed, with a thoughtful, slightly distant gaze that gives the portrait a contemplative, introspective quality. Overall the image feels deliberate and stylized—like a studio study that uses bold color and shadow to emphasize texture, form, and mood rather than realism. The combination of the subject’s composed presence and the dramatic color palette produces a powerful, cinematic impression.

Gods damn I am melting in the heat today… please stay safe out there. Safe and hydrated.

Conservative/Right wing pups have no place in our community. And by no place, I mean none. You do not get to enjoy the rewards of generations of work done by our elders to vote, dine, and drink with fascists who want nothing more than to put a fucking bullet through your skull.

Damn fucking impressive…

Consider me onboard already.

Great start to the weekend…

Shirtless man with a salt and pepper beard stands with a small smile on his face, lit by pink and purple lighting. His tattoo and the dark background create an emotive atmosphere.

Been a while… figured I should probably post something for 2026.

I have yet to see a photo in which you remotely resemble looking “horrible”. The premise of this question is false…

You need to kiss your husband, say thank you for documenting your daily life and accept that you’re simply cursed to always be really really ridiculously good looking. So there… 😜

It’s felt that way for years though… sadly.

Damn! Looking hot!

Oh absolutely not! I will pay and full price! Feel free to gift any freebies to someone you know who needs it.

Also, just wait. I got asked to do a fire (red), poison (green) and ice (blue) wolf for a friends D&D campaign. I’ll make sure to tag you in them when they’re done!

I didn’t even realise one of my favourite artists was ON Bluesky!! Instant follow!

Damn impressive

Happens to me all the time too. I figure the apps are just like people passing each other on the street yelling “good morning” without actually caring about genuine engagement…

I’d like to inspire something like this one day…

Easily one of my favourite cities in the whole world….

Yes. Fucking. Please.

Yes. Please.

This was the original unpainted resin print that @meholt.bsky.social made for me…

Blame @meholt.bsky.social for getting me to try miniature painting…

We printed this design by JLuna3D (cults3d.com/en/users/JLu...) in resin and I used the slap chop painting technique to give it texture and colour.

Car…

What a view…

I mean… it’s on brand for me…

With winter coming, I decided to finally hunt down a comfortable “oodie” to wear on the couch during chilly evenings…

Shirtless bearded man lying in dark sheets in bed smiling up tiredly at the camera. There is warm light streaming from above and purple light in the shadows.

Tired boy is tired… and crawling into bed early tonight (yes there are reasons)… I’m almost due for a haircut and beard trim soon…

Yes please!

Bearded hairy man, shirtless in a bath with bubbles.

Might have accidentally overcooked myself in the bath… how does @meholt.bsky.social do this regularly?? Added some epsom salts to the water (with bubble bath of course because it’s not a bath without bubbles) to help reduce some of the pain of getting old…

Always kind.
