A photo of Space Marines, three Assault Intercessors and three standard Intercessors, all of them have a metal-looking nameplate attached to the front of their bases with a gothic-looking font for their names: Sister Miraïs, Sister Lucena, Sister Sarine, Sister Genevane, Sister Arabeth, and Sister Dominea.

They're all wearing standard massive Space Marine armour with big shoulder pads painted in a deep rich red, the Assault Intercessors all look like they're mid-stride and are wielding got pistols and chainswords, and one has a grenade in her hand and looks like she's about to lob it. The other three are holding big boltguns, two look like they're in the middle of firing and the third had hers held upright in one hand while she points commandingly with the other. None of them have helmets and they've all got either mohawks or very short cropped hair and various cybernetic implants. Their guns and chainswords are all black and they've got various brown leather pouches attached to their waists. The bases are done up to look like battlefield mud, it's all dark brown and wet-looking and splattered part-way up their shins, and there's some swampy-looking grasses and green goopy swamp water on the bases too.

It's taken like six months but I finally attached the nameplates to my Intercession squad! ...though I guess now with the release of KT24 it's my "Angels of Death" squad now. 😛

A photo looking out from the patio into our backyard prior to mowing. You can see a bit of the patio at the bottom where there are weeds growing in between the bricks, the edges of the lawn are quite long, and the grass in general looks very scruffy. The side of our house is visible at the left, with two trees in large pots next to it. Behind us is a very dodgy wooden fence that has a distinct lean, with a two-storey red brick house with all its blinds closed behind it looming over everything. To the very right is our little hobby room, a small standalone structure that's sitting alongside the fence. At the very top-right are the big tree in the corner of our yard and the trees from the neighbour's yard poking over.

Exactly the same view as the previous photo, except the lawn is neat and tidy and the patio has had the weeds whippersnipped, and the sun is significantly further into its afternoon arc and the shadow from the house behind us is reaching about half-way into the yard now.

✅ Laundry: washed. ✅ Lawns: mowed. ✅ Edges: edged. ✅ Patio: de-weeded. ✅ Me: ded.

A photo of the box of a 10TB Seagate external hard disk. The enclosure is basically a big featureless black box with a little white bit going over where the front USB port is.

This should keep us going for a while! Good upgrade from 4TB. 😛

A photo of the box of a Boss ME-90B bass guitar multi-effects pedal. The "pedal" is more of a board, it's very large and a dark blue colour and is absolutely festooned with dials.

Huzzah, the last bit of my order arrived! Very excited to be able to get significantly more interesting bass tones now.

A photo looking directly up at the sky with six black and yellow helicopters mid-flight. The three at the front are in triangle formation and the three at the rear are in the same formation but a bit further back. The sky is blue and filled with wispy clouds.

Very weird thing just earlier this evening as I was leaving the house to pick @yayKM up from the station: I heard this unusually noisy helicopter sound, looked around and it wasn't a single helicopter but SIX, all flying in formation! They kept that exact formation the whole way until I lost sight of them behind the trees.

Right, I think I'm calling my first piece done! (Miniatures on top for scale.) I might go back and add some rust or otherwise general weathering, but I'll get the rest of the terrain finished first.

A photo of the two corner pieces of the Kill Team: Hivestorm terrain. They're simultaneously gothic and also sort of steampunk, with pipes running over them and two huge skulls designs. The pieces have been heavily drybrushed in grey, the metal doors and barred windows are an orange/red colour and the pipes are a rich brown. They're not fully finished yet, but look absolutely striking even in their partially completed state!

For a handful of hours work, this is coming along absolutely smashingly!

A photo of several different pieces of gothic-looking yet somewhat futuristic ruins of varying sizes sitting on my painting table.

Right, that's the terrain assembled and undercoated! Next stop, attempting to replicate @[email protected]'s method with minimal effort via the magic of drybrushing.

A photo of an electronic drum kit sitting in a corner, with a mesh snare and three mesh tom pads on it, and four black cymbals. Three of the cymbals are noticeably larger (and also cleaner) than the fourth one, and they're the new ones.

It's aliiiiiive! Three crash cymbals are go, and the drum module is smart enough to assign a different crash sound to each of the inputs (the default single crash that it came with, the extra "Crash 2" input, AND the third one that's just marked "AUX") if you have it set to the correct cymbal type, so no mucking around needed.

A photo of an electric guitar with a white body, black pick guard, and a maple fretboard and headstock. It's VERY handsome.

New gear day! 🎉 A Fender Player II Stratocaster, and upgraded cymbals for my drum kit (CY-16RT ride cymbal and CY-14CT crash cymbal, both Roland). Mannys only had one of the crash cymbals in stock so I'm still waiting on the second to arrive, as well as a Boss ME-90B bass guitar multi-effects pedal. I haven't had a chance to play with the Strat yet, but MAN the new cymbals are nice, they have a far better feel to them than the stock ones, and the new ride cymbal has three trigger zones on it, so you get the bell sound in the very middle too. I'm currently trying to see if I can fit another cymbal mount on there to use with the last input on my drum module so I can make use of one of the now-spare CY-8 cymbals as a third crash... 🤔
