The Mighty Grand Piton (2019), dir. Wesley Louis, The Line
An impressive short film made to look like the trailer for an even bigger project -- a project that's on the way, according to the studio

My time is spent writing these days, but I really should get back to the ol' digital paints.

Magnus Archives is a great RPG, if anyone is interested in spooky or supernatural investigations.
Rather than a gun toting badass, or an axe wielding barbarian, or a magical savant, I play as a Scottish historian whose greatest superpower is recalling poetry linked to particular locations. Love it!

This workshop will initiate with people from Mexico, Latin America and Europe to strengthen the ties of stop motion and collaboration and, in exchange, education will be provided for free for one Mexican / Latinamerican student for the first ten years also.
Guillermo del Toro, Netflix, and Gobelins have teamed to open a stop-motion studio in Paris. The endeavor shares a kindred spirit with Mexico's El Taller del Chucho, also co-founded by del Toro, and will honor stop-motion legend Mark Gustafson.

Having a lot of emotions surrounding comic books lately. I miss being a part of a creative team, and producing art.
Life is not awful, but some creative needs aren't being met.

Been playing Invisible Sun again recently, as a Weaver. Still the best magic system in any TTRPG I've ever played. The creativity you need, and the trust in the GM to rule fairly, makes for a great cooperative system.
Shadow of the Demon Lord however... That has the greatest written spells ever.

Quote with a title screen that is important to you.
This image always reminded me that despite the giant mech battles, this was a world filled with people affected by the greater conflict. Soldier's and civilians alike. It was a great choice for a title screen, it gave gravity to the story for me.

I did it! I geeked out enough to finish a full army for Warhammer 40K! It only took me... Over a year with a few hours a week in the evening to paint...

Work on my Forged in the Dark RPG, The Stymphalians, continues. The 1st pass on character background choices is complete, and the playbooks are soon to be developed into a playable state. A stripped down version of the character sheets will be designed alongside.
Slow going, but going all the same.

More from my Black Templars army, a Crusade Squad.
Mini painting feels like such a natural way forward in creativity for me, borrowing from my time as a comic book Colourist.
