#hobbystreak 47 was mostly working on the yellow doing very small bits of brighter and lighter yellows to try and get it to look a bit shiny.

#hobbystreak day 46, a bit of experimentation with stroke and pressure while I did the suit highlights. Learning is fun!

For #hobbystreak 45 I tried a bit more on the faces and glazed the blue suit with a purple to shade it a bit.

Most of #hobbystreak 44 has been spent working on the Carols' faces.

I spent #hobbystreak 41 and 42 drinking whiskey and playing RPGs on the slopes of Slievenamon. Back home and painting for hobbystreak 43 tonight.

#hobbystreak 40, starting on the yellows. Need to figure out what I'm doing with the energy bits soon.

For #hobbystreak 38 and 39 it's slow going. I basically just did some more red and blue and added brown for some bits.

Captain marvel has a transform mechanic so I'm trying to paint both versions together. #hobbystreak day 37

String of haiku written in response to several writing prompts. White text on black background. A message in binary.

its mask never slipped
mere decoration for pause
on one-way journeys

down-tuned vocals now
a familiar rumble - from it
and cojoined engines

circuits closing loops
not a care in the world for
their longed divinity

locked human birdcage
deep space demands sacrifice
[sqwrk]: THY WILL BE DONE

#hobbystreak day 35. Now that venom has a face I'm feeling a bit better about this paint job.

#hobbystreak day 34, a bunch more progress on Spectacular Spider-Man and a bonus butt shot because why not?

My eyes are burned out of my head from work today. But I'm still tipping away at spider-man. #hobbystreak day 33

🧵 Beautiful fresh day in Dublin. My neighbour’s grapes are ripening. I like that the unlikely, such as grapes in the city, is possible. Much of my art is about the fantastic & the surreal. You can see how in these eye-popping colourful one-off drawings, if you scroll down this thread! [1]

I think all your work is great, but I do especially love your flowers.

Did the blue parts of Spider-Mans suit. Need to go back over the red though. #hobbystreak day 32

Pat Ryan @crankytapir.bsky.social · 17d

I glazed Spider-mans red bits with purple and then glazed him again with red. I *think* this should make the red appear less pink than just glazing over white, but obscure the black lines less than multiple red glazes. Did it work? #hobbystreak day 31

#hobbystreak day 30 The lines on Spider-Mans suit are recessed so I'm hoping that by doing them now I'll have less mistakes to fix later 😅

Right, I tidied up a bunch of little paint splatters, did the base rim, boot highlights and a few other touches tonight and I am calling black widow done for #hobbystreak 29
