A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying in the grass of a lawn that rather desperately needs mowing.

I opened the door to let Beanie out and I can report that it is Fucking Hot. So of course, he needed to go lie down in the direct sun.

A photo of six Astra Militarum guardsmen from Warhammer 40,000. Their armour is very light grey bordering on white like they're ready for winter action. They're brandishing a variety of weapons, one is a sergeant holding a chainsword above his head, another has a sweet handlebar moustache.

And we're done!

A photo of six mostly-painted guardsmen from Warhammer 40,000. Their armour is very light blue/grey, three of them are wearing heavy armour and one has a helmet, another is a sergeant with a beret and brandishing a chainsword, two more are holding very large plasma guns, as is one of the heavily-armoured ones. One of the heavily-armoured ones has a beret and a sweet handlebar moustache.

I was batch-painting ten Astra Militarum guardsmen and it was getting a bit tedious and I wasn't feeling like I was making any progress, so I chopped it down to just the six I need for my squad. Feeling much better now, they're coming along excellently!

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog sitting on the low bottom shelf of a narrow wooden side that's against a wall.

Beanie's new favourite place to sit is the bottom shelf on our side table.

A photo of the elliptical display at the end of my workout, showing an hour twenty-seven time elapsed, 15.58km covered, and 1393 calories burnt.

And as is traditional after eating too much Black Bear Barbecue, no dinner and a double-length workout on the elliptical. 💪🏻

A photo of a box of hot chips, a container of mac and cheese, and beef brisket with chips and pickles.

Treating myself for lunch today.

In related news, I really need to stop getting so much food, it keeps being more than I realise. I'm SO FULL right now.

A photo of my DIY miniature painting table setup, it's made of wood and has a rectangular arch over it with a bunch of white LED strip lights attached to the inside of it. The new addition is a piece of wood that is wider (and longer; I need to trim the ends off) than what's already there at the top, so there's space on its bottom side for extra lighting.

I decided I needed EVEN MOAR LIGHT for my painting table, so somewhat-dodgily attached another larger piece of wood to the top of the arch and bought yet another set of LED strip lighting to attach to it.

A photo of a box of five Warhammer 40,000 Astra Militarum Tempestus Scions (futuristic-looking armoured dudes with guns), and two packs of regular guardsmen with a plasma gun and a melts gun in each.

Huzzah, that's the last bits of my Astra Militarum squad! I also bought some teeensy little magnets and am going to try magnetising the arms so I can swap guns.

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying asleep on his side on the floor, but with his head under a blue single-seater lounge chair.

Current Beanie status.

A photo of a rank-and-file Skaven from the old 8th Edition Warhammer box. It's small hunched-over but humanoid rat creature with a leather head/shoulder covering, red cloth underneath copper-coloured armor, and brandishing a very tall not-quite-scythe.

The same Skaven as before but taken from the other side, showing that he's also holding a triangular metal shield. He has an angry expression and looks like he's mid-shout about to go into battle.

And Lily's Skaven is all done! Pretty impressed tbh, way better than my efforts at the same age.
