Also I've managed a bit of painting finally but this seemed like bigger news
I'm Phil. I'm a computer programmer who loves painting minis, F1, ttrpgs, running, paper craft, sculpting, drawing and other stuff too!
I'm not currently inspired by programming, but when I am, it's Elm, Haskell, and their functional friends that spark joy.

Important new hobby space update
Brainstorming ideas for a demon of gluttony and realizing I've reinvented bogglins
As I've approached forty, for no apparent reason, I've become a bird person (human nature?), so on a whim I grabbed this book by @rosemarymosco.com. It arrived today, and I haven't gotten far, but I'll say this opening quote was worth the price alone
When you finally get the motivation to push through something you've been procrastinating on.... and there's a cat snoozing peacefully in your lap. smdh.
@xombiehamster Long lost siblings! I actually have a pair! Big time helpers, all the time
Still no painting as the painting space and brain are spread out with the hobby room reconfiguring, but some progress is being made.
This solution holds all my paint except a handful of inks and some SoFlats that are too big.
Nadja appears to approve.
I'm quite happy with the big shoulder skull, and in some ways the back turned out better than the front 😬 (probably because it's simpler!)
A silly little thing I got nerdsniped into making: https://gaydient.com lets you customise CSS gradients of pride flags and then copy the code
I'll get some better photos eventually but we're in the midst of reorganizing the basement into a bigger hobby space, so this will do for now.
Itty bitty teeny tiny tonk / I fill my enemies with fear / because I'm very stronk
My lovely partner, when presented with Sleigh Bell's "Do You Want to Start a Band" in the car: "this sounds like mario music crossed with coldplay"

Senescence, Numb I (Coloured Pencil, Copic Marker, Multiliner, Ink).
Sneaking and creeping in some progress on our teeny tiny tonk. Making a base! At this scale it feels easier to make everything diorama like, but then you just keep adding and... Etc!
Happy with the way this is going though, probably need to break things up as it's getting kind of muddy, but maybe the explosion plume will accomplish that?
TFW you're a bronzed grackle who's having an extremely normal one, and you want everyone to know it.
Is this "punk"?

Another piece of #scenery for #SpaceGits and/or #Gorkamorka. This was the last one I had at home; now I need to print more
