A photo of a smallish room, with stuff against all of the walls, and a spot at the back right that's been cleared out that's where the drum kit is going to go.

I spent this afternoon cleaning and tidying and rearranging the back room because I'm going to buy myself an electronic drum kit and learn to play drums! And we have absolutely nowhere else to put it, haha. I was originally looking at the Roland TD-07KV, but I'm leaning towards splurging for the TD-17KV instead...

A photo of two very little rectangular circuit boards with various chips on them, and a row on either side of the boards with black plastic headers for plugging things into.

YAY my ESP32s arrived! They're smaller than I thought they'd be (and arrived faster than I was expecting, they only shipped from the US six days ago).

A photo of the box of Kainan's Reapers, a warband that's made up of skeleton warriors.

There we go, last warband I'm getting for the current season of Warhammer Underworlds! (I'm not interested in Hedkrakka's Madmob or the Idoneth Deepkin, the miniatures don't grab me).

A photo of a plate with chips and a half rack of beef ribs in it.

I went into the office today solely because we're having a team lunch. I'm happy to report that the beef ribs from Hurricane's are still magnificent.

A photo of four of the six pieces of the "Primal Lair" terrain set. They're all set on what look like basalt columns (those hexagonal stone formations you see in places). One has a huge horned skull resting on it, another has a horned skull and also the backbone and several ribs of what was an ENORMOUS creature, the third has big yellow crystals coming out of the middle, and the last is a pool of sickly green liquid inside the stone columns.

Games Workshop's Contrast paints and my new big drybrushes certainly reduce the time it takes to do these terrain pieces for Warhammer Underworlds! (Miniature is there for scale).

A photo of a bunch of boxes of Games Workshop miniatures: for Warhammer Underworlds, two warbands (Hrothgorn's Mantrappers and the Crimson Court) and the "Primal Lair" terrain pieces from Beastgrave, and for Warhammer 40,000, Adeptus Mechanicus (two boxes of Skitarii and one box of Sicarians).

Birthday haul! This should keep me going for a while. And I'm getting another three Warhammer Underworlds warbands from my parents when we see them weekend after next. 😅

A photo of the back of the three partially-painted miniatures from the Ironsoul's Condemnors warband from Warhammer Underworlds. They're heavily armoured with gold armour, and have long flowing robes in dark navy blue. The raised edges of the robes are highlighted in a wonderfully smooth fashion up to a light blue, almost like they've been airbrushed.

I think I've got the hang of this drybrushing business now. 👌🏻

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. They're partially painted, the wispy bits are a sickly green colour with a smooth gradient into white at the edges and raised areas.

Thoroughly enjoying my new fancy drybrushes!

A photo looking down a train station platform with a few people scattered along it.

I am currently waiting for a train, to go into the office for the first time in over a year! (I actually have a dental checkup and my dentist is in the city, so it's easier to just do this rather than going all the way to the city and back out. Also, I'm going for laksa with coworkers at lunch, aw yiss).

A photo of the box of Morgok's Krushas, a heavily-armoured warband of orcs, sorry, "orruks" as they're called now.

We're doing a "creative refresh day" at work during March, where you can expense up to $50 for some hobby you enjoy, and you take a day to just... do that hobby, rather than working. So naturally I ordered yet another warband for Warhammer Underworlds and will be painting them next Friday! (I ordered this yesterday just before midday, it arrived today just after midday. 😮)
