This is what I was working on. Dancers In Darkness, for RuneQuest. Vampire ladies wafting around in gowns as they do.
These ones are from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social

The camera has exaggerated some of the shading and made it look a bit harsh. Some tidying up to do, but it's so very gloomy today.

Me going to cool historical talks and places with "and I can make good videos and posts and things about it too" then feeling too awkward to take many pics or vids the whole time 😂

My living in the moment vs "share the things with the people" clashing as always. I'm trying though!

There’s some kind of real charm in making models of British Suburbia. It’s only small, but this little one is one of my favourites of the year…

Today should be the last push of packing Kickstarters, just stragglers left after that. I've got Jesus Christ Superstar on now and War of the Worlds lined up.

The post-ks office tidy is such a dessert. The golden reward.

Well, the AI bubble is about to burst, and rich people are looking for solid, stable, long term investments. Gold, whisky, turkey men. It makes sense, people.

Behind the scenes! I'm using some @fenrisgames.com rubble because of course, and a variety of scratch built scenery. I knew we wouldn't see the tops of my Trench Catherine wheels - they're there for some extra foreground verticals. The backdrop book is A4 on this occasion - right fit for the shot.

I got my @badsquiddogames.bsky.social Resistance figures! These are a brilliant commemoration of the resistance against fascism in World War 2. They also make great character figures.
I've shot them here in black and white against the World War Ruins Backdrop Book. Packing pre-orders right now!

Hurrah! My article on the Twilight 2000 RPG in the Journal of American Studies is now open access (OA), so anyone who wants to can have a read. OA is important to me, as I want my work on RPG history to go beyond the academy and reach the gaming public.
