A photo of 50 (yes, five zero) small chocolate chip cookies sitting on a cooling rack.

That was a food-laden morning! Made a batch of bread and some miso chocolate chip cookies, then had a delicious toastie for lunch. In the process I used every single square centimetre of horizontal surface available in the kitchen.

A photo of the partially-painted three miniatures that make up the Warhammer Underworlds warband "Gorechosen of Dromm". They're three beefcake dudes, one's got a big ceremonial headdress on and is wielding an axe and a staff, one has very Immortan Joe from Max Mad vibes but also with rocking dad-bod, and the other is part demon with absurdly large arms and big horns over his shoulders. Their armour plating is painted a dark rich red colour, the trim is a brassy/gold colour, and most of the rest is unpainted.

Refresh day progress! It always takes longer than I think it does if I'm sitting down and doing it for like a day straight, rather than just in bursts for a couple of hours after dinner.

A photo of three goblins on wolfback. They've got a distinctly Mongolian feel to them, one is wielding a sword and shield, the second is aiming a bow and arrow, and the third is holding a very long spear out beside him.

I also started on another of my sizeable backlog of Warhammer Underworlds warbands, Rippa's Snarlfangs (which wasn't even one of the multitude of miniatures I assembled and primed last weekend). I wasn't sure what colour scheme I was going to go with so did just one of them to start with, and tonight I started on the rest. The models look great, but man the spear on that one on the left makes it tricky to angle him in specific positions when I'm painting, I keep stabbing my palm!

A selfie of me, a white man with short hair and a short red beard (and a very receding hairline) wearing a black Metallica t-shirt and holding a black electric guitar. In the background on the floor are my guitar amp and pedal board.

Look out world, I have a guitar and I'm not afraid to use it! I'm thoroughly enjoying the ability to plug my amp into the load box and play on headphones for nights like tonight where all the rest of the house has all the windows open because it's a lovely temperature. I close the door to the office and close the window in here and I can rock out to my heart's content without annoying everyone on the block.

A photo of a brown lizard with short legs sitting on a concrete path, next to the red bricks that make up the outside of our house.

We had the most unafraid blue-tongued lizard ever visit us just now. It was sunning itself right by the front door, the dog walker came and opened the screen door nearly on top of it and it just didn't care!

A photo of a bowl of vanilla ice cream with Ice Magic on top, and top of that is a bunch of sliced-up strawberries and crushed peanuts.

Oh no, Kristina bought some strawberries and there were too many so I had to have some before they went off. ::dramatic hand to forehead:: (Perfect ice cream weather today, it's sunny, 30˚C and 19% humidity right now.)

A photo of four Warhammer Underworlds warbands that have been undercoated black and then had a white zenithal highlight done over that (using an airbrush to paint white only from the top of the miniatures where light naturally falls). The Exiled Dead has seven zombies, Elathain's Soulraid has three armoured elves along with a crab and a fish, Hedkrakka's Madmob is four savage-looking orks, and the Gorechosen of Dromm are three big muscly dudes with one that looks like it's transforming into a demon.

What a productive day that was! Got all my remaining warbands assembled and primed and zenithal-highlighted. I'm getting the new Underworlds box, Gnarlwood, for Christmas, so my aim is to get all my remaining warbands painted before then. And then I really should start at least assembling and priming some of my Kill Team squads, since nearly all of them haven't even been taken off the sprues yet.

A photo of the boxes of two miniature sets for Warhammer Underworlds. Hedkrakka's Madmob is a tribe of green orcs with loinclothes and basic but savage-looking weaponry, and Elathan's Soulraid are a group of extremely pale elves who live underwater.

I might have gotten the bug again and ordered two more warbands. >_>

A photo of a plate with a fallen-apart rösti on it, with three poached eggs sitting on top.

Kristina had a physio appointment for 7:30pm tonight so she had a late dinner, and I had a hella bachelor dinner: an Aldi rösti with poached eggs that were done in our microwave poaching jobbie. (I had it with ketchup and it was actually surprisingly delicious. It was also 500g of rösti so I didn't end up eating ALL of it. That's a dinner plate that the food is sitting on, for scale.)
