Faerie seer for MTG. 20x16 oil on board.
I hope I’ll get a chance to paint more faeries for MTG someday! They’re a lot of fun.

Can’t play Arc Raiders because it disconnects every minute, freezing my character for 30 seconds. Just spent like 15 minutes trying to extract.
Anyone else experienced this?

Speaking of baseball, Titanic survivor, Frank Goldsmith, couldn't bear baseball games because the cheering reminded him of the screams of dying passengers during the sinking. I'm working on a documentary podcast about the aftermath of Titanic back us here:

I used to work at a small shop that made little plastic vampires.
There were only 2 of us working there, so I had to make every second count.

Big ol' Warhammer (fanart!) poster I did for the Apothecarion charity event. This was a massive undertaking for mw, it's the most complex thing I've ever done and the first piece of (semi) personal art I've completed in about 10 years.

The BF6 store is so funny to me - I'm really intrigued to see how well the game does now that microtransactions are in.
The game itself is FANTASTIC, and sticking to a "mostly realistic" look is what the fans want, but it means that the store offerings are just ASTONISHINGLY BORING.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

This is a very personal post, and probably pointless because I’m not going to share what the Thing Is, but today I managed to complete a task that has haunted me for half a decade. Pushing past PTSD is, it turns out, very hard, but today was the first day I felt like I could do it and I did.
