After 41 years playing #Elite games from the original in 1984 on BBC Micro to #elitedangerous I’ve finally gained Elite status! o7

Is this a #guinessrecord for how long it’s taken?!

With the rare warm weather in the UK arriving today, my thoughts have turned to important matters such as 'how do I cool my drinks'.

Taking advantage of my @octopus.energy ASHP, I may well have solved the problem and benefited humanity!

No AHSP's were actually harmed

When the first thought in your head is CTRL + Z after accidentally painting where you shouldn’t.

A #blender + #affinityphoto mashup.

Ducky3D genodes organic cell tutorial with various overlays in Affinity Photo for a grungy sinister look.

One of the bestest intros ever, yet so simple. Legendary game ✊

Opened up Affinity Designer today after quite a while from doing any digital art and out pops this, a fair move away from usual pixel art things done before.

How it started (6 years ago) and how it's going...

Been a while since I've picked up the virtual brush, but had a bit of a play with #affinityphoto this morning.

#revolution is a take on #vinyl nostalgia after an earlier set of #retro themed vinyl posters from a few years ago.

One of my first C64 games, loved it! The game had a great inlay with a bit of a bio about Steve Lee, which was a nice touch. Wonder what happened with the Ford Escort it mentioned he tinkered with? 😄

One of the best examples of genre defining games in history.

Spent so many hours playing on my #c64 and friends #bbcmicro. Elite Dangerous is also great but my 51 year-old brain resists the additional complexity of the game play.

Just started with one of my Christmas presents, quite impressed with it so far

Nice! Santa left this under the tree for me, which I’d been eyeing for a few years…

Love a nice sprite on a Monday morning! 👍

Nice! Although it does remind me of this Bilbo Baggins figure... 😄

Still one of my top 10 life time achievements, completing it when I was a young lad. Celebrating with a Wham bar.

Totally! Hard choice between this and Elf
