I did some more mini painting - well varnishing actually - this time by hand to avoid frosting up the transparent parts.
Watch out for the undead flying heads and giant flying er... flies?!

OMG, it's still holding its charge! 💪
I guess the red flashing means it's low but even so, after more than a decade!

Tonight's film is the black and white The Call of Cthulhu movie from 2005. I've watched it before, but it's just been added to a streaming platform

If you've not seen it before, it's excellent. I think you can buy the DVD directly from the H P Lovecraft Society if anyone wants a physical copy

Searching through the lead mountain at the back of the painting shed & found these. Must be over 25 years old.
Thing is, I never bought them or played the corresponding games? I guess someone must have given them to me after giving up painting.

Watching season one of the remastered Blake's 7 blu rays. Excellent picture and sound, way better than the dvd set I used to have. The acting, writing and directing all shine and the optional re-done effects mean the original efforts aren't there to detract from the experience. Recommended.

Bandido is a rules-light, very accessible cooperative card-laying game that comes in a small package but don't let that fool you. It's also proves a challenging game to beat!
