It’s Friday again. Wow – it comes around so quickly these days! Been having time with family the last few days (two four-year-old twins and a five-and-a-half year-old – the half really matters, apparently – all girls. Running me absolutely ragged!)

Before the invasion, I managed to get a couple of minis painted. I’m going to really miss lockdown. I’ve got more hobby done in the last four/five months than I have in about twenty years!

I find that Lyla Mev’s approach of “eyes first” really helps; if I’ve muffed up a face, I get to correct it before investing too much time. And when I’ve got it just right, I’m super-inspired to try my best on the rest of the mini!

• It’s GamesCom time. Do you care? What now, what now?
• Have you been to GamesCom? I wouldn’t know a GamesCom if I fell over one.
• What video games are your thing? It’s a toss-up between Gunfright or Head over Heels on the ZX Spectrum

Pledges (checks last weeks thread to see what I promised last time) – this was a cyber NPC so I sort-of hit last weeks’ pledge. Probably more of the same. I printed up a couple of billboards from the Kraken Fantasy Kickstarter through the week. They need a splash of paint, I guess (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/257252755/kraken-fantasy-stadiums/). I also printed a human team of eleven players (mostly from RNEStudio). I might go bold and claim I’ll get them all painted this week….

Music – like a punch to the head, it’s Suckerpunch! I love this album so much….
