How self indulgent

I dont feel like working, i dont feel like doing anything really.

Breadcrumbs and battleships

Oh joy. A Friday in front of the computer!

After a flat out week of writing crappy programs for people at work I finally have some time to myself again. How would a girl spend this time.....YEAH! Painting. For the first time in months I’m painting again. Suddenly I’ve realised that I really suck at painting. Back in my younger days, (14 or 15) I think I peaked at painting miniatures, at the time I was painting Warhammer and Necomunda miniatures for many mighty battles against brother and I had a bit of a rule that I couldn’t use one unless it was painted - a rule my brother never adhered to cause he "had goblins and there were so many of them". So now, it seems I suck. I paint it, then I highlight it with a dark colour then dry brush and it looks kinda crap. I've made a collage of some of my miniatures from years back and one now....I don’t like the new one. It kinda sucks.

Resolution to do more painting....and get good at it again

Several Months Later

I've been slack....I know. But really this whole thing is for my own benifit so why should it matter if i never update it.
It was originally meant to be a "how to" guide for building the model of the Serenity Firefly, but in all honesty if you dont have a picture in your mind of how to do it, then my random rambelings wont help.
Anyways....i've had other things on the go. My latest is this entirly insane diorama which was inspired by my friend Deb. Its this scene of Star Wars Battlefield characters (i'm the empire vs Debs Republic) and its basically the layout of our houses with some other random stuff chucked in. Its looking kinda cool though i havent worked on it in a few weeks.

i've also attached a picture of the Firefly when its finished....its a bit of a leap from when it was part done to this...
