Faaaanks, mate.

I think the cream and blue is a classic combination.

I'm still inspired by Wayne England's Imperial Dwarfs of yesteryear.

Ah, thank you!

Dwarf militia unit for Kings of War. I wanted it to feel ragtag, as though they're throwing armour on to protect their village. It's a mix of various companies' models and I had a blast doing them.

Haha. Very unlikely. I started this army project three years ago and have finished a whole two units.

Three dwarf cannons for a Kings of War army, painted in cream and blue livery.

Three cannons for my Kings of War Dwarf army. The highlight being Ol' Mossy in the centre.

The front panels of the housing were boring and devoid of detail, so I had fun adding some texture to those and the wheels.

Oh she's still in her cave. Some things never change.

🤣

It's fine. I keep Grendel in my sock drawer.

WHAT ABOUT NOW

You're there now, until whenever. Best get painting something else!

I found the best way to enjoy Rooney is by turning the sound off and switching browser tabs until the football starts again.

Or commentary for that matter. It's better when Murphy doesn't say things.

Villa vs Newcastle has not been a good advert for top level football, or refereeing.

Couple of great goals from Tonali notwithstanding.

Looking good!

I'm happy to take all the credit, obvs.

That's a fact. But when you've got the Rolling Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Stone Temple Pilots ahead of you, what's even the point.

It's a good track. In my top three of Tuesday songs.

I mean, at least it's not Saga holidays?

Yet ...

God, Free Bird goes so hard. This morning is given over to having a tidy of the nerd pit, but I had to stop and air guitar for the full nine minutes to this.

You're going to have such a shiny helmet. (fnarr)

Love that eye. Might nick that for my old farseer with the bug eyes ...

One cannot do anything other on that deckchair.

That Girl EP, by SpaceAcre 7 track album

A random music find this week is SpaceAcre.

spaceacre.bandcamp.com/album/that-g...

It's a corker of an EP. Chemicals and Say in particular are a delight.

(also bonus points for them quitting Spotify and only leaving this www.youtube.com/watch?v=Od33... as their parting gift)

YouTube video by RelapseRecords MYRKUR - Touch My Love and Die (Official Music Video)

Myrkur at it again, and it's delightful.

Alan looks on, disappointed.

Couldn't agree more. It's tiresome.

"You're drybrushing like a FUCKING MORON ... don't forget to like and subscribe."

Frank sacked by Spurs early afternoon afternoon, and still no post from @blessedwithpace.bsky.social suggesting Alan Curbishley for the role. Truly the end of times.

(also, autocorrect suggested Alan Circuitry which I don't hate as a robot manager name)

Totoro was my gateway in. Watched it late one night after being out with friends at the pub. Woke up the next day very confused about catbus dreams.

I adore that film.

I mean any Ghibli is good, but that one ...

Swordens.

Eddie Vedder drinking game.

Drink until you sound like Eddie Vedder.

Agreed. Thinking of non-English speaking bands I like, it's never an issue that the lyrics don't make sense to me.

Rammstein. Heilung. Red Hot Chili Peppers.
