20.00 SUPER FURRY MANIMAL Welsh remake of the short-lived 80s action adventure. When a man encounters a strange ritual just outside Cardiff, he gains the ability to turn into any of the the members of the psych-rock indie band, losing all inhibitions and discovering that he don't give a **** about anybody else, yo know he don't give a **** about anybody else.
You want niche? Oh, we got niche.

The background is intuitively painted, then layered with a photo of young trees, which are overlaid again with yellow, orange, red, green, blue and purple shapes hanging between branches. Done in Procreate. FUN π€©

01.12.2025 08:07 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Detail shot of a decorative embellishment added to Cardiff Castle during the Gothic Revival renovation to the medieval castle in the mid 1800s. Wall coverings are in shades of burgundy with many gold details presumably because yellow is for peasants. A border separates two different burgundy patterns. Linear bands of olive green are at the top and bottom. An alternating pattern of blue and pink follows moving inward. At the centre, a blue and green bird is flapping its wings animatedly and calling back to a second blue bird with a pink head. They are standing on green ground with an entirely gold background because of course they are. Decorative mouldings forming the start of an arch on the wall are painted Tiffany blue and a coordinating softer grey-green that looks like it might be paint they had left from Fortnum and Mason. At the base, a man and a lion are engaged in battle. The literally golden-haired man is wielding a sword and shield, but only wearing underwear. The man is looking upwards, presumably regretting the choices leading to this moment. Meanwhile, the 100% gold lion has a clawed paw splayed across the underdressed belly of the man. The lion is grimacing at the prospect of getting guts in the very lovely braid running through his mane. It was probably meant to be a halo, but the monkey who put it in was hanging the wrong way so instead it's a chinstrap. A brown vine/tree with green leaves is wrapped around both figures. It's unclear if they fell into the bush, or if the bush is of the enchanted sort and trying to break up the fight.
Cardiff Castle is Overflowing with Interesting Architectural Embellishments.
