after literal years of not interacting on social media and many more of hating what it has become, I am here! Hoping this is a safer place to share my work 💖

For anyone wondering, some possible dog names have survived from cuneiform sources.

On tiny dog figurines found buried under a palace in Nineveh, Iraq are inscriptions that seem to be names.

I truly wouldn’t care if a man dressed like the king of England was in the urinal next to me. I get that for extremely online rightwingers, a trip to a public bathroom might be the most memorable moment of the day, but the rest of us truly do not give a shit who is peeing nearby.

Guess I better introduce myself!

Here are some pieces of art that I've made over the years. I don't paint half as much as I'd like, but I have made some things I'm very proud of.

Hello!

Following the example set by my friend @chesterramoray.bsky.social,
Here are some Hoplites I've been working on. Only just returning to the hobby after several years of inactivity!
These aren't finished yet, but working on them!

Since apparently people actually interact here, here's some more of my amateur-ass paintjobs! As you can see I'm a bit of a faction butterfly. #warhammercommunity #nerdling

OK I'll play. Not a pro, not even especially good, but a bit above average I like to think. Here's my Norn from Hive Fleet Olmeca, the Tequila Sunrise Tyranids. #warhammercommunity

1/8 I'm often asked "Why do amphorae have pointed bases?" and as a potter who has now made hundreds of them, I have to say that it's something that I have thought about a lot. For a start they'd be a lot easier to make if they had a flat base. As it is you start throwing from..
