Fellas, it’s been good to know ya
There’s a wild story playing out on Great Lakes ship watching and coastal Facebook groups right now.
There’s a guy with a homemade house boat who’s attempting to traverse the lakes.
The boat is called Neverlanding and it set sail from Windsor, ON. It appears he has 1-2 50hp motors.

The fancy special edition of my first short story collection with illustrations by @corleyms.bsky.social is still available, and is included in this 25% off sale.
When I'm not painting warhams I run a small press publishing company specializing in horror fiction, occult art books, enamel pins, and even an RPG. Anyway, it's all 25% off this week so give me your filthy dollars.

Pleasantly surprised to see such a big emphasis on kit bashing both models and terrain in the new Age of Sigmar campaign book.

20 man assault squad finished for my SoH army for #HorusHeresy. 4 power swords and volkite pistols, with the sergeant having a power fist instead.
Looking forward to trying out some jump infantry in the new edition.
