was thinking about sandwiches (for an exceptionally goofy reason) and remembered a sandwich I used to get regularly from a place that's closed now (RIP Full Pint Brewing, Lawrenceville location) and now I'm sad I'll never eat that wonderful sandwich again

Saw Neil Gaiman crawled out of the gross pit he has been residing in to reaffirm he still fucking sucks. I still enjoy the time I spent with his works when I was young, but I have zero desire to ever revisit his works again. Next time I visit my parents I need to donate the stuff of his I still own.

This one is great and Grayson is not underselling it how it basically connects to every social issue of the 20th (and lol also 21st) century

This one was a genuine rabbit hole, very fun to research and write. I did not expect "underwater basket weaving" to connect to basically every social issue of the mid 20th century

Trying to decide what miniatures I want to prime tomorrow to paint over the weekend
A photo of a five unpainted gaming miniatures of both resin and metal make laying a top a newspaper advertisement from Arby’s with different paint streaks across it. The miniatures from left to right are: a big beefy barbarian with a large axe, no shirt, pants and a large fur cloak; an old barbarian frail but standing confidently; a maniac wielding a knife and only wearing brief underpants; a landsknecht knight with a two handed sword, a floppy hat and the customary landsknecht clothing; a demonic sorceress with two horns wearing a low cut dress and robe holding a staff; and a viking wearing chainmail, a tunic, pants and holding an axe and a shield

Worked a long day and then unwound with some miniatures. Work in progress of some mimics formerly of otherworldly miniatures now of @fenrisgames.com and a long unavailable wizard wearing a fur coat by Hasslefree miniatures. Working on a partial sheer effect on the dress.
A photo of a painted gaming miniature on a miniature holder in front of scrap paper with paint marks. The miniature is a mimic transforming from a treasure chest, the mouth is the opening between the top and bottom of the chest, there are also eyes on top of the chest coming out of the wood and a large clay flesh looking plasmid type hand coming out of the right side of the chest. The chest is brown with silver metal trim, the teeth are dirty white, the eyes are red and there are prominent pink gums.

Today’s snow day miniature, Medusa for Warriors of Athena. Used this as sort of a test model for an olive based skin tone and to try out an idea I had for a white yoga recipe. Happy with the skin, not a fan of my toga experiment. Otherwise pretty pleased!
A phot of the front of a painted gaming miniature on a holder in front of a green and blue backdrop. The gaming miniature is a Medusa, which is a human woman with snakes for hair. The snakes are green, her skin is olive toned, and she wears a white toga and brown sandals. The toga is held on with a golden colored cord.

I finished up a bunch of bases for miniatures this afternoon, I actually finished so many I ran out of scenic tufts. Then I started taking fun group shots. Here’s an orc, goblin and ogre alliance. You can tell I painted all the goblins over several years given their different skin tone choices 😅
A photo of multiple painted gaming miniatures on a screen printed grass gaming mat in front of a hilly bright green scenic backdrop. The painted gaming miniatures include an ogre, multiple orcs, a half orc shaman and several goblins including a goblin riding a warg. The goblins range in color from rusty orange to ochre yellow, the orcs are all a dark olive green, the ogre is ochre yellow and the half orc is dusty red. They all wear clothes including purple tunics for the orcs, a green sack cloth tunic for the ogre, bright pink or green hoods and skirts for the goblins. The half orc only wears a faded green loin cloth.

Went to the gummy+dungeon synth+miniature zone and I think finished up painting another nude study to practice my skin blending. Tried to do a bright blonde hair but think I fell a little short there.

I don’t know how much longer we can be expected to live alongside the lie that this is not exactly what it looks like: a violent siege, meant to destroy people. The lie makes it even more destructive.

One of my more stick in the mud takes is that if we as a society continue to remake toy commercials from the 1980s, could we at least not make them into terrible live action adaptations and just make new cartoon toy commercials? Animation is a fantastic medium.

Sourced another copy of this miniature I’ve painted before, still have some stuff to smooth out here but I think I nailed the fair skin and red hair, took a gamble trying to add freckles which I think look ok but could be better.

Finished this miniature aside from the base and pretty dang pleased. Tried a new experiment with the blue robe. Turned out a little darker than I intended but it blended together nicely
