Bench seat has its cushion and is finally finished. For my next project I have an irresistible urge to do some fine woodworking and make a walnut and maple jewellery box (mainly to test out my skills on something smaller). Let see how that goes!

Finally got all the bits to finish the bay window bench seating. Looks pretty good! Lots of storage as an additional bonus. Will order a cushion for the top soon (Etsy is a godsend for things like that - I can do woodwork, but sewing is way beyond me!)

Jeezus that alert just gave me a heart attack.

Loved the latest episode of Strange New Worlds. Definitely Event Horizon meets Star Trek. Surprisingly gory too.

Ahh B&Q…. Where the standard response to ‘do you’, ‘can you’, or ‘will you’ is an emphatic ‘no’ and a scowl. Oh, and where smiling is evidently immediately lethal, or at least it seems that way for the staff!

Hilarious factoid - on my last cruise I found myself sharing a table with Anne Widdecombe’s private secretary. I winced, but he was a pleasant enough chap. Alex and myself went to great lengths NOT to discuss politics. lol.

FINALLY finished the sideboard in the dining room. It was an absolute monster of a project and there’s still a few adjustments (as well as finishing touches to the rest of the room), but it’s come out looking pretty good! Lots of storage too! :)

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 27/05/2026

I’ve been using my table saw a lot recently. Today I experienced a wood kickback that hit me right in the bollocks. Don’t worry, I’m fine (just injury to my pride). Nice way to learn the value of safety though!

Ahhh, it’s that time of year where I look like an absolute madman taking a jumper into work. Our pharmacy is maintained at 18c, which is fine whilst you are running about, but gets chilly if doing desk work. Of course, if I walk out to the loo all wrapped up I get some odd looks!

www.bmj.com/content/393/... - Comes as no surprise that Palantir found their new system to be very effective by comparing it to data obtained during the worst phase of the pandemic... and even had a conflict of interest with a board member too!

I let out my whimsical side with this one and built a diorama with a shadow fox raiding the bins (as foxes do!). I know the scale is a bit wonky (HMM is 1/72, and the wall is built 1/36), but it still does the job. #zoids

After nearly 3 months of off-and-on building I finally finished my custom-colour variant of the Axis Aerial Dominator. I picked colours to give it an Eva Unit 01 vibe. Looks pretty awesome on my shelves. It's one chunky boi though - can't believe how much it weighs!

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 29/03/2026

I’m just glad it’s 15x more bees and not 15x larger bees!

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 26/03/2026

It’s coming along nicely! Just need to start on the quad wings now. I say ‘just’, but those things are massive and will take me ages! *collapses*

Today my work reversed a previous change to annual leave where all requests had to go through several layers of management before approval (we used to do this ourselves at a site level with no issues). Excuse me whilst I try desperately not to smirk and say ‘I bloody told you it was stupid!’.

020

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 10/03/2026

Base for the Gundam complete. This is a mammoth project though, so still only just begun on the full thing…

020

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 19/02/2026

Shadow fox coming along. Just need to add some decals and give the final varnish coat. Might go light on the decals for this one though - just a couple on the weapons and head. Wouldn’t be too stealthy if it stood out too much. Got a special diorama all ready for it though! ;)

042

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 17/01/2026

Holy crap this box is huge! I’m gonna be kept busy for a while…

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 24/12/2025

And finally a MG Blitz I did for my partner. The black is a bit of a git to photograph properly, but it looks nice IRL on his shelf. :) #gunpla

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 24/12/2025

Here's my final Zoid of the year. I decided to be a little different with this one and give it a candy red colour scheme (even though the underlying 'Ferrari-style' colours aren't that original). Ended up coming out great though! #Zoids

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 22/12/2025

Well my 2026 is going to be weird…

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 19/12/2025

My first attempt at elevating my models (a Redler and a Reddra) with a couple of new techniques - namely two different types of camo and a diorama background. Didn't come out too badly I think! Looks really nice on my shelves. :). #zoids

1123

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 19/12/2025

I painted this one a while back, but I only just got around to taking some decent pictures of it. Was a fun model to make, and I just couldn't resist popping him into a diorama (all that shopping makes you hungry for ramen! :)). #zoids

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 19/12/2025

I’m resisting the temptation to get myself a H&S Infinity 2024 2in1 airbrush. I don’t need something so fancy…. But my god it’s pretty! :p

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 17/12/2025

It’s been an afternoon of pleasant surprises! Finally started to go through the box of old C64 games my dad kept ahold of for me at home. Some are apparently worth £250. In half way through and sat on £2k already D:

040

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 14/12/2025

I have this GIANT guy showing up after new year. Lots of time to consider what colours to paint him, but considering chameleonic paint for a colour-shifting effect. Always open to more ideas though!

020

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 14/12/2025

Finished painting my Liger Zero Jäger. First time attempting candy colours and I think it went well, but man it’s time consuming! I have plans to pose and put into a diorama later, but for now I will let the gloss varnish fully harden (it takes a while!).

3203

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 03/12/2025

I’ll take some proper photos of this later, but for now I think I’ve finally finished my Zoids dogfight dioram.

061

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 11/11/2025

So tired! Going to bed at midnight is probably the cause, but playing games and painting models is too much fun. I don’t wanna go to bed when the time comes!

020

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 29/10/2025

Dragon dogfight models completed. Just need to build the background/base now.

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 29/10/2025

Omg, today I have patients with the surnames of Knott, Cock, and Shaft on my wards. What is the universe trying to tell me?!?!

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 29/10/2025

Not played a decent fantasy dungeon crawler in ages. Really need to find one for my next game.

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 15/10/2025

Lots of work, but the entranceway is starting to look pretty good! :)

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 28/09/2025

I don’t look too bad (or unexplainably angry) today. ;)

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 28/09/2025

Enjoying my cruise, but dealing with lots of people makes me think I should consider looking into an autism diagnosis. Or maybe I’m just critically antisocial and bitey? Lol.

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 25/09/2025

I found a nice suit of armour. Also horse armour! ;)

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 25/09/2025

This place is amazing! Although Dark Souls has taught me that if the boss music starts playing I should run!

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 16/09/2025

Phase 2 of hallway storage complete. Now into the final bit, which will be building the radiator cover, putting a marble surface on it and finding a grille for the front.

050

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 25/08/2025

Started work this weekend on adding a shoe rack and storage to the entryway. Only around 20% done so far and took me all weekend. *collapses*

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 25/08/2025

The office is virtually finished - just need to add a bit of extra lighting. That, however, can come over time as I find pieces that I like. :)

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 21/08/2025

They said they’d show me ‘such sights’, but after I solved it they realized I was a furry and had already seen too much.

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 31/07/2025

Going to be an interesting day. A lorry has hit the railway bridge right outside my workplace. It’s now closed until structural engineers review it. So only 1 way in, which is also the same route as a festival/event going on today. I sense lots of cancellations and/or grumpy outpatients incoming!

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 26/07/2025

Office revamp getting closer to completion. Just awaiting shelves, cupboard doors, seating pillow, and a few accessories.

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 04/07/2025

If I hear a politician talk about ‘efficiency’ in the NHS one more time I may just go insane. Healthcare isn’t a sandwich shop. People don’t get well on a controllable schedule. Cutting staff for ‘efficiency’ will only have the opposite effect.

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 28/06/2025

Back from the cruise! Fun to see that when I was gone the cursed area nearby had another accident, this time with a bus losing control and ending up on a river. Never a boring day in Eastleigh!

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 25/06/2025

Yup, definitely thinner. The stunning scenery is upstaging me though. :p

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 24/06/2025

I’m here, in the middle of fucking nowhere in Norway, and I get full 5G signal! WTF? You’d be lucky to get reliable 4G back home!

Makari @makari.moggy.org · 24/06/2025

Sooo near my target weight. Just 2kg to go. Skin feeling quite saggy now though. Need to ramp up weightlifting.
