A photo of the four miniatures of Lady Harrow's Mournflight from Warhammer Underworlds. They're spirits and modelled to look like they're very ephemeral and wispy and flowing. The wispy bits are a sickly green colour with a smooth gradient into white at the edges and raised areas, they have deep purple corsets, and the bases look like a ruined graveyard.

There we go, the spooky ladies are finished!

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying on a green blanket sideways on a single-seater lounge. His face is mushed against one arm and his back legs are propped up on the other arm.

I present to you tonight's entry in "How the hell is that comfortable".

Thoroughly enjoying my new fancy drybrushes!

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board, consisting of hexagonal tiles. There's a number of miniatures on it, on the far side are the Lumineth Realm-lords, all high and mighty-looking aelves, and on the other is Morgwaeth's Blade-coven who are also aelves but wearing significantly less armour and looking much more feral. One of the Coven is a snake from her waist down.

Another game of Warhammer Underworlds tonight! I played my murder-ladies for the first time (Morgwaeth's Blade-coven) and sadly didn't win. I can definitely see the potential though, and there were some very unlucky dice rolls at a few critical points. They're pretty sneaky as befits aelves, keen to play a few more games with them.

A photo of two wooden boxes with fancy Artis Opus brushes in them. One is a set of four regular brushes, the other is set of four drybrushes.

YES! My first set of properly-fancy brushes. Very excited to take them for a spin.

A photo of a pork collar butt sitting on a Weber Smokey Mountain smoker with smoke coming up from underneath. It has a temperature probe in it, and another to measure the ambient temperature inside the smoker.

It's that time again!

I definitely want to try brisket next time, but I was talking to the friend of mine who introduced us to smoking meats in the first place and given it takes like 12 hours, I think I'll be smoking it with the expectation that we won't be having it for dinner that night. No way in hell am I getting up at like 6am to get it started. :P

A photo of two cardboard takeaway boxes, one has hot chips, the other has slices of beef brisket, some potato chips, pickles, and a container of barbecue sauce in it.

Yasssss, Black Bear Barbecue time again.

A photo of the warband Morgwaeth's Blade-coven from Warhammer Underworlds. Five female aelf miniatures, the one in the middle is holding a spear with a goblet raised in triumph and has long pale blue hair. The two on either side of her have long pale pink hair and are both holding swords like they're about to use them. The one on the left's bottom half of body is a snake and she's holding a bow. The right one has a whip and is mid-leap over a broken statue. They're all not wearing much armour.

Oh man, I just did my first ever glaze for miniature painting (I thinned out Flesh Tearers Red with Contrast Medium in a 1:8 ratio), and hot damn am I a convert. Look at how rich that red looks now!

A photo of the box of Apogee's "Jam" guitar input, an unassuming silver rectangle with a dial on the front as well as a button and some lights.

Woohoo, my new guitar input arrived! I took it for a quick spin and the sound quality is noticeably improved over the old one, everything sounds crisper and clearer (old was 16-bit/44.1KHz, new one is 24-bit/96KHz).

This was paid for by selling some of that funny money that Keybase gave everyone a few years back, turns out it's actually worth something now!

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. The board design is the inside of a cave and has hexagonal tiles on it. The three miniatures on my side of the table are bulky and slow-moving, and the three on Kristina's side are lithe and elegant aelves.

We played another game of Warhammer Underworlds tonight, the vile Wurmspat versus Myari's Purifiers. I was coming first right up until the very last end phase, then Kristina scored two objectives to put her ahead by ONE glory, and she'd killed one of my fighters thus rendering six additional glory out of reach for me!

I'm not sure how I feel about the Wurmspat's current deck, I think I want to make it a bit more mobile and combat-focused.
