To clarify

Four orc archers, monopods, all painted to basically the same scheme, each using just one method of painting

The front middle is Army Painter Speedpaint pens

It passed time as I was doing weight training this morning, and whilst the mech was lovely and stompy, the humans mostly had less personality

It is only fair

First attempt, just white primer though, middle front orc

Left - cheap acrylic paint
Right - Speedpaint
Rear - normal acrylic

I forgot "Independence Day" too, it even has a Quaid in it, the one you might stand to be in a room with

"Let's make a souless mashup of Southern Comfort, Dog Soldiers, Predator, Aliens and Battle for Los Angeles!"

"What will we call it?"

"Hmm. War Machine?"

At least you got to the swimsuit stage

There are reports of a fleet of Iranian galleys approaching Salamis

As Dark Age villagers, one woman guts a viking with a knife, another is about to stab him in the back, and other women watch on laughing Caption "What's wrong with fighting like a girl"

On International Women's Day, one could re-evaluate some of your negative stereotypes

Today is International Women's Day—a fitting date to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Hawkmoon roleplaying game and its lead designer, RPG trailblazer Kerie Campbell-Robson. In 1986, 20 year old Kerie was one of the very first female lead designers in the industry.

I look forward to a day when there is!

Midgard "Hollywood style" - Thor stood at the head of his warband. With a grin that dared the world to defy him, he raised his hammer. Lightning cracked across the horizon, splitting the morning gloom. Forward,” he said, voice rolling like thunder. “Let them remember who we are.”

Agnes, Countess of Dunbar. During the Second War of Scottish Independence, she led the defence of Dunbar Castle which was lightly held, against a strong English force, infuriating the English commander with her wit

We had a visitor from the US last weekend, took him for dinner in The Stag & Thistle

He timed that badly, this weekend and Strathbungo for a post-prandial delight would have been amazing

At least he saw Chinese Lion dancers outside the city chambers

Can I share your photos with him please?

Thank you

Might have a look, as wee weekend adventure

Meanwhile, presence of a Henderson's might turn me inadvertently vegetarian. Love their stuff

Damn! That was this weekend?

Forza gli Azzurri!

Last week, showing a display of arms to a visitor from the US

"Do you know what kind of dagger those three are?"

"No"

"Well, they were called, by antiquarians, kidney daggers, for a while, but the real name is..."

Not all the angelic powers are in Heaven, y'know? There are days when God says ro one or another of them, "Hey, it's *your* day to walk with the one who flies the Bat."

I guess tomorrow will be "International 'It's November 19th' Day"

A bunny witch peers into a cauldron, in a tower at night. On the surface of the water in the cauldron, a bunny adventuring party is trekking through the forest. The bunny witch watches the adventurers nefariously

I do, obviously as I am much, much older than you, you only being 24, some games I played back then, but some, like the Capcom ones in the one I was bought, I never did, that wasn't "my generation"

Wishing you all the best, you seem a decent soul at heart

I do enjoy Williams Bros too

And Harviestoun Schiehallion has a Tom Weir mouse

Harviestoun for me!
