Back home from Nova Open today and spent most of the morning cleaning brushes and putting things away. Did get a couple more minutes working on the Toad Bandit from Dragon Trappers Lodge. #miniaturepainting #nerdlings #dragontrapperslodge
Warm up.

Crafts of many types, including silver jewellery, lapidary, book binding, watercolours and leather work to name a few. Also a fan of warhammer miniatures, Cornwall, Devon and Dorset. Pictures of all of the above will most definitely appear here.
Warm up.
Snap. As I child I’d fall a sleep to tawny owls calling at night.
Following now, I will be using your Dartmoor pics as reference for places to explore once I move to Devon in the not too distant future. Keep up the great work. Look forward to seeing more.
Is that Zippy or Salad fingers?
What is it you have baked? It looks lush.
Took Bill for a walk round Tortworth lake. Last time this year it’s open to the public. Opens again next year. First Sunday each month February to October. Tea,coffee,soft drinks and cakes available for after a stroll.
Now I don’t like to use AI, however I have been wanting a new logo for a while so ended up asking meta for one. As soon as I saw it I thought omg amazing. As for AI slop shorts can’t stand them popping up everywhere.
I’am so getting better and quicker at this painting malarkey. Less than an hour so far.
I’m back at work, got the holiday blues that’s for sure. Aaarrrggghhhh. Wish I was still in Turkey.
Will do, thank you.
Where can you get these growing vases from?
You are going to become my go to guide for Dartmoor soon.
There’s no knob on the end. Oops wrong story.
Smells of coconut
Spider monkey.

Not just me then, I’ll watch reruns any time.
Watching an old Timeteam on YouTube. That theme tune gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. As a kid I’d watch it each week with my dad. He’s no longer alive. But that tune just brings memories flooding back.
I got an old Murphy Richard’s one, I can add all the ingredients at night set the timer then when you get up there’s a warm fresh loaf waiting for you. Also sun dried tomato bread is amazing.
