A photo of the box of a Iwata "Smart Jet Pro" airbrush compressor (a black metal box with the ends open and a handle on top, with some vents in middle of the side), a "universal spray-out pot" (a little pot with a lid to spray the airbrush into to clean it out), and a braided hose for connecting the compressor to the airbrush (which it turns out wasn't needed because the compressor comes with a braided hose).

Turns out my compressor arrived sooner than predicted!

A photo of the inside of a restaurant. It's warm and light, with a nautical blue and white feel, and the ceiling lights have ropes wrapped around the cables hanging from the ceiling.

Aw yiss, out for dinner at our favourite Greek restaurant.

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying awkwardly on the very low shelf of a narrow side table, with his head on a folded-up umbrella.

Beanie always finds the most uncomfortable-looking spots to lie in.

A photo of four sets of ten female heads for Warhammer 40,000-sized miniatures. One set has mohawks and cybernetic implants, one has a selection of "grizzled veteran" headgear like a beret, a beanie, sunglasses, one has a cigar, etc. The third set all have berets on, and the last have no headgear at all.

Woohoo, the replacement female heads for my miniatures arrived today. They're metal but surprisingly good quality, can't wait to get them all painted up. (I think I'm going to wait for my airbrush stuff to arrive before I get stuck in.)

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying on his side on the floor with his back against a bookcase and his head resting on a cushion that's been propped up next to a reading chair.

Someone has certainly made himself comfortable.

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying upside down on the floor with his legs in the air.

We got this adorable little scruffball eight years ago today!

A photo looking down a street after the sun has gone below the horizon, but with clouds on the horizon and the sky a REALLY intense rich golden colour.

Hella sunset just now!

A photo of a Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine, a big heavily-armoured warrior holding a big gun, that's been undercoated in black and has a zenithal highlight of white done from the angles on the top so it looks like the light is shining on him from above. The gradient is smoooooth.

We were over at a friend's place today and he has an airbrush. I had a play around with it, and that's it, I'm getting one. Look at the damned smoothness of this zenithal highlighting!

A photo of the (quite empty) front of the fast-food place here called Schnitz.

I went into the city today for a visit to the doctor and the dentist. Naturally I had to make my regular pilgrimage to Schnitz. 👌🏻
