Bees ❄️🪾☕ @voiceofkosh.bsky.social · Dec 31
I thought I'd do a little art vs artist with some of my favourite models I've painted this year.

There are a lot of wings there, lots of Thousand Sons, a couple of conversions, and the first two busts I've ever painted. If there's one thing it's been a good year for, it's painting models. 🙂
Me, surrounded by some of the many models I've painted this year. Beholder chaos spawn, Astorath, owl wizard, Jaheira bust, me, 30k Ahriman chatting to a skull headed raven, as you do, a deep sea fangly genestealer, a daemon prince that looks suspiciously like a little female Magnus, Halsin, best boy of BG3, also chatting to a bird, it's very popular apparently, an old metal Ahriman, because you have to pay respects to your elders, my beefy elephant boy, and a partridge in a pear tree. I mean Night Lord with a bloody knife.

I'm a test reader for a friend's book. I'm reading each chapter and giving feedback as I go, saying what I like/dislike and sending photos of things I think are typos. It's almost 3am and I've just realised I've sent 12 messages and oh god what if he was asleep and didn't have his phone on silent. 😬

Hi, my name's Jack.

Here is the text of Terry Pratchett interviewing Bill Gates in 1995.

Thanks to @rhi.bsky.social for summoning help, and to @20thcenturymarc.marcburrows.co.uk for the source, I have manually transcribed its 3,481 words into a Google doc.

Enjoy.

This is mine
Picard is making a telephone call from a rotary phone in Data's chest. The text reads: I'm calling from my new Android smartphone. Yes, it even includes unlimited Data. When I first saw this I laughed for about half an hour. This explains a lot about my personality.

I saw a thing earlier today, one of those "quote with your faces" things, but I lost it.

But then I was thinking about these dorks all day - so here they are:

It is done.
I've listed my entire Siege of Terra book collection on ebay.

I feel... some sort of way.
I didn't finish reading TEatD vol 2 and never even started vol 3, but maybe now someone will.

January is over so it’s time for a new comp.

This month the theme is…what’s wrong with you?

Your objective is to create a miniature with something wrong with it.

Glass hammer? Magnus the Bread? Dildo Baggins? Go wild.

Rules on skeet 2 (please read them)

I distinctly heard the sound of a cat throwing up in my house.

I don't have a cat. And my dog is asleep next to me.

A decayed goblin skeleton in black robes stands in a woodland scene. A gigantic red cap mushroom sprouts from the cap of its robes and smaller mushrooms are growing from inside the hanging skeletal jaw. The goblin holds a giant scythe that is covered in bright green lichen. A spiders web is being strung between the blade tip and the handle. The wooden base has a collection of different mushrooms sprouting from it.  A decayed goblin skeleton in black robes stands in a woodland scene.

Turns out there isn't much you can't fix or improve by sticking a goblin on it.

I am too much of a disaster to paint today. Yesterday I chucked a pint of fresh orange juice all over my painting desk, narrowly missing my commission. Today I knocked a tub of cream out of the fridge and it painted the kitchen, and me. I'm so grumpy. 😂

I made cornbread for the first time. I'm not sure what it's supposed to taste like as I've never had it before, but it was pretty good!

Behold my entry in the monthly comp. I worked really hard on this one and I think it shows! Peep the little spiderweb I built on the scythe.

Any likes and reposts on Andy's post boost my chances and do look at the other amazing entries and show them some love too!

A goblin skeleton, still in robes stands in forest scene. It's holding a rusted scythe that's covered in moss with a little spiderweb being spun across the blade. The goblin has an extremely large mushroom growing from its head, as well as a number of smaller ones sprouting from its mouth, back and all around the ground.

1st-2nd February is Imbolc, a Gaelic festival celebrating the impending lambing season and the birth of new life. A Scottish legend tells that the arrival of snowdrops infuriates Beira, Queen of Winter, so she brings frost and snow as she battles to keep her hold. #FolkloreSunday

Are there any Indie minis people that are based in the USA?

It's not that I don't appreciate the people that I'm following, it's just that they're all in the UK and my country is stupid.
