I miss forgeworld.
Resin does not belong on the main GW website. It is a rare and special thing that should exist confined to its own esoteric realm. the fabric of reality sits uneasy where two versions of reality try to exist as one.

Every advert I see now is for some stupid AI service. Not even the AI themselves, but AI recruitment or accounting or pictures of yourself that look nothing like you. I hate adverts at the best of times but jesus fuck the saturation of slop generators trying to find a non existent market is painful.

I'm finally caught up with casting. In the process I got confused why no one ever buys my little spiky turtles, then realised I never actually put them on the mammoth webstore.
So yeah...expect turtles soon.

My current hate of the moment is the autogenerated AI results on google when I search for something made up. It says "oh, that's not a real thing, that combo of things never existed..." and like I KNOW THAT YOU ELECTRIC DULLARD! I AM TRYING TO SEE IF OTHERS HAVE IMAGINED THE SAME THING AS ME!

The fuckers actually called my bluff and made the t-shirt I have always said I would buy if it existed.
Fuck.
Bastards.
Fuck.

I've been putting a little setting art book together for a while and have finally started with some of the illustrations. These are some of the ships of the world cloud - a pirate ship, a palace galleon, and a small merchant skiff. There are weirder ships and folk to come.

Have you seen our amazons range? It's quite hefty! We've gone for a fantasy ancient Greek aesthetic - sculpted by Shane Hoyle and this one here painted by the mighty Paul Cubbin.

Currently drinking a monster energy. Haven't had one since i was 15. I bought it with the same kind of anxious trepidation of a first time coke user buying a gram at a house party. will it help me get all my jobs done, or will it just make me shit myself and fall asleep? Only time will tell.

After christmas I'll be doing a major overhaul of mammoth miniatures as it's all become a bit too big for me to handle whilst also working full time - Mostly this will involve building a home workshop so i can cast on demand in good time...

realised last night that the reason I'm so burnt out is because I haven't had a day off for 4 years.
On an entirely unrelated note, I am thinking of getting into energy drinks.
"Oh I never used to get brain fog this bad or struggle to keep on top of things" yeah no shit because I used to sit down.

I was meant to be at Colchester games fair today but I had three dental appointments this week and my teeth feel like they've been worked over by the mafia. So instead i've added loads of new stuff to the mammoth miniatures webstore!

Some mutants ready for casting, along with the hundred other things that need new moulds.
I sense a webstore closure and range refresh in the near future as the whole thing has grown a bit unkept in recent months...

Renewing my DBS with HR. They need paperwork to prove who I am and are baffled that I get all my statements digitally. They ask if i have any letters from my employer like a payslip or a P60. They ask if I could get one. To do that I have to email HR. No wonder this university is broke.

I enjoy emailing HR at my day job because it's the one time I can get rid of all the niceties of digital correspondence. I'm about one week away from just "K THX"ing every email they send me. The thrill of not saying hello or thankyou in an email to HR is my own personal heroin.

I spent my day building a battery powered spincasting machine for making 15mm metal miniatures.
It's actually very quiet, that noise is the horrible extraction system.

Word of the Day is ‘theic’ (19th century), defined as ‘one given to immoderate tea-drinking; a tea drunkard’.

I don't do video games and generally don't watch alot of anime so I spend 90% of my time being baffled as people tell me I've accidentally sculpted schmunkus mcboogle from their favourite installment of bungusbungus rangers.
Me: *Makes thing*
Person: Oh is this based on x from y?
Me: Sorry, never heard of that so no! 😅
Person: You should watch it because it's just like this
I swear guys, not everything is referential. Sometimes two creators have similar thoughts. None of us live in a vacuum.

The USA saw the EU mess with small businesses earlier this year and decided it wanted a piece of the action, so for the time being mammoth miniatures are suspending US orders. if you want anything you have two days to get 10% off before I shut ordering from the USA ahead of the new tariff deadline.

I played a small game of "in the land of the sundering flood" to celebrate entering the fulfilment stage of the kickstarter.
Victrix models. Sir Godrick and Osbourne the red lad were slain by a band of skinners as they attempted to cross a stream at the edge of the woods masterless.
