As someone who actually goes to Live Action Roleplay events, I take exception to the term ‘LARPer’ being used as an insult. You do not realise how much time and effort a LARP actually takes to be involved in.

Love it when a shop doesn’t realise what they have. 15 quid for both of these beautiful books. Not current edition of SLA, but still awesome reference. @nightfall.games

#SprueCon had Kamping Kitbash on the upstairs, just tables, glue, clippers and piles of spruces. Some made a guy! I want to practice on flat areas and faces, so let’s see what I can do with him.

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.

It's a disaster, and it can all be traced to
Labour ideology. Burnham has no mandate
from the people. He has no real ideas, and
no plan,

Johnson on X

I would like to thank @tshae.bsky.social for sending me Commander Avele Swifteye and Elres Fireflash for the project, there is something to be said for the less ‘clean’ design of the old pirates.

So I now have, fully painted, 1000 points of Eldar under Rogue Trader Rules. I wrote an army list and everything. I’ll put up how the points work out later today, but I’m currently trying to finish my D-Cannon.

I need a bunker/pillbox for a #xenosrampant scenario so slapped some texture on a £3 wooden box from The Works and knocked this up in an hour or so using a sponge for the two shades of grey. Proper old school approach to making terrain.

So just for anyone watching the new @arbitorian.bsky.social TO4G, this is 1000 points of 2nd Ed harlequins looks like. And that’s with no wargear cards. They are expensive in points, and you have to understand shenanigans to play them.

Fritz Lang didn't build a seventy-foot-long mechanical dragon, operated from the inside by ten puppeteers, breathing out actual fire via a built-in skull flamethrower, in Die Nibelungen (1924) so you could rock up and tell me "AI is inevitable".

Beautifully detailed working drawings of the articulation inside the 70 foot dragon puppet

I've had to unfriend a few fans lately, all for the same reason. They made ridiculing, unkind, and in some cases outright cruel comments about pictures I posted of young women cosplaying Jessica.
More than a person, Jessica is a state of mind. To play Jessica, you need self -confidence, a sense of humor, and a Jessican -attitude-. There is no such thing as a Jessica cosplayer being too short, too flat chested, too heavy, too thin, too unattractive, too black, too Asian, or even too male!!! All Jessica, any Jessica, every Jessica is good Jessica.
I'm not giving any warnings or second chances. A single disparaging comment on a Jessica cosplayer, and I'm throwing you out of the rainbow colored Toontown Tent.

Because it’s been too hot to paint in the day, I’ve been playing Darktide. Just got the Arbites pack, and you get a Cyber-Mastiff, which is so cool, you can do option selects on him! Then I got in the game, THERES A PET DOG BUTTON! 10/10, best DLC.
