![How To Paint Moonstone’s Nanny | Goblin King Games [7 Days Early Access]](https://images.beastsofwar.com/2024/12/3CU-Gobin-King-Games-Moonstone-Shades-Nanny-coverimage-225-127.jpg)
It’s been a whole week and I only just got logged in again – been super-busy (and will continue to be so for a few days at least) but it’s always reassuring to poke my nose in and see everyone still getting on with stuff.
- Did you have your regular “week of from work yet” (if you still work regularly) or is that still coming up for you?
I spent 15 years working from home. Then about 18 months ago, I took on a job that involved regular commuting (albeit three days a week, it still felt like a full weeks worth of “office work”). Since this whole lockdown thing started easing, I’ve been determined not to go back to “regular work”. I’ve no idea just yet how to go about it (actually, that’s a bit of a lie, I’ve an idea, I’m just not sure if it’s going to work or not!) but I’ve on interest in going back to a “regular” working pattern.
- When you have time of work (not counting these pandemic off times) do you get to get more things hobby related done or less?
I got *loads* more done in the last four months that I’ve done in the last four years (it’s partly why I’m determined not to get drawn into regular 9-5, mon-fri work any more). Really enjoyed joining in with online painting competitions (I won one too recently) making terrain and even the odd miniature diorama. THIS is what I should be getting out of bed for, not to make some goon a few quid 😉
- Do we need or want an emergency substitute “drug” for this weeks Weekender and XLBS?
Um. Dunno. I’m quite happy to ride this one out. Then again, did I mention I’ve also been very busy?
Meanwhile – pledges: I spent some time with my wife making terrain. It was brilliant. And she enjoyed it too. I started a project blog. So this week’s pledge is to get a couple of buildings for my “cyber city” finished (modelled and painted, not just laser cut and assembled). https://www.beastsofwar.com/project/1556133/
Music? How about some jangly-guitar pop-punk? When I heard this song, I thought it was one of the saddest songs I’d heard in a long time. It’s still a great tune:
Did I mention I won a painting competition?
First prize is to have a custom miniature made of my choice (in a cyberpunk style). It’s been a few days and I’ve got nothing. Anyone got any ideas?
It’s good to be back 😉
