Going back through photos and wanted to drop a few of the pieces I'm most proud of over the last year or so.

It's time for another #TANKMAIN Tuesday! This time, @spacevalkyries.bsky.social and I take on Co-Op Kaiju Horror Cooking, and definitely don't get our stuff stolen by rats.

To be fair, nobody can be expected to read when there are glorious cryptids to admire.

She's from Rubia up in San Fransisco! Named Lady Grey, she's 6 so we didn't want to change the name she's used to - so now she's Lady Makoto Grey.

Oh, dear. There appears to be a cryptid in the house. I guess she lives here now.

Meet Makoto! Because you can't be as Silken adjacent for as long as I have without eventually being suckered in.

It's #TANKMAIN Tuesday, and this time we take on Henry Halfhead!

It's an adorable game full of chaos and, as is apparently a theme for @spacevalkyries.bsky.social and I, throwing things out of windows.

Sad I'm not able to be at MagicCon Atlanta this weekend, unfortunately too close to DragonCon to be able to do both in one month with the day job.

I hope everyone has a blast, and sling as much cardboard for me as you can!

Saw this #SesameStreet reel on Instagram and felt so seen, it hurt.

"And it only Tuesday."

I wasn't expecting Sesame Street to still be making hella-relatable-to-me content when I was in my 50s, but dang.

Are you ready for some #Peak TANKMAIN?

In a shocking turn of developments, @spacevalkyries.bsky.social and I did not somehow manage to die on the beach.

Galavant.

It could not have been more my jam if it tried.

It's a double dose of #TANKMAIN Tuesday (on a Wednesday because the export ran late) - @spacevalkyries.bsky.social and I finally finished #SplitFiction! We definitely didn't misjudge how much of the game was left, resulting in a double episode drop.

Perfect timing for this post to assault me given that I'm spending the day re-organizing the Drydock so I can paint again...

I'm livin' the dream, baby! 😂😭

One last visit to the Iron Temple before heading out on Tuesday. Gotta build up the STR score for DragonCON.

I could have gone with a CatDog reference for this title, but I had to go with this one because I'm a terrible person.

Join me in about 10 minutes to hang out as I resume work on the Lego Going Merry! It's been a joy to build so far and I'm excited to get back to it.

I really don't know why @spacevalkyries.bsky.social trusts me to make our episode titles.

Anyway, it's #TANKMAIN Tuesday and time for another episode of Split Fiction! Prepare for nightmare fuel.
