Ahhhh I don’t know if I should read The Magos or the Ravenor omnibus next. I’m excited to see what Gideon is up to, but also I just love my trash man Eisenhorn. But before that, I’m taking a break from 40k and reading Dead Astronauts (which so far is beautifully written).

Bwahaha. Steve went and bought the second Eisenhorn audio book ‘cause he’d only gotten most of the way thru the first one and here I was NOT SHUTTING UP as I started the third book. So now we’re just babbling at each other as he’s listening and I’m reading. Spousal book club!

This just gets funnier to me the more I read of Hereticus. This man is such a dweeb.
I told my husband where I was in the Eisenhorn omnibus last night and he goes "Okay, you need to draw something," and then described this picture to me. And thus I did. 🎨 #WH40k #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity

My niece is seeing snow for (I believe) the first time this year! She was born in Hawaii and is now in Germany. My sister shared a pic of said niece outside, wearing nothing but a jacket and crocs. Thats it. My niece is feral and I love her.

The Frieren art meme is so wholesome. Goes to show you how artists really do just love drawing and helping other artists. Gatekeep what? Naw, not here.

Reminder that the vast majority of indie artists/super small businesses cannot afford to discount their work for Black Friday/Small Business Saturday/Cyber Monday.
Do not complain about it.
Buy from them anyway!

This is Cooper, one of my dad’s two kitties. We’re pet sitting for a night while my dad is hunting, and this little orange fellow follows us around like a dog. He wants to be with me or Steve at every moment.

There is a non-zero chance I’ll draw Eisenhorn/Cherubael at some point. Maybe even NSFW. WE’LL FIND OUT.

Messing with some brush tip acrylic markers. Hoping I can move it into some sort of state where I like it. Especially since it’s Best Girl 37 and she deserves some nice art. 🎨

Been painting these up for ages. Proud of the LED dragonfire, and just endless scale details.

I was going to wait on selling these, because I feel weird about making money on glass while I still owe commissions, but I'm out of solder and just paid a $550 bill for that, so they're available now! Six stained Glass succulents in little ~3.5"x3" hexagonal pots. Pics/prices below, DM to claim:
