Dwarfs and Stuff

 I have completed 4/10 dwarfs for the two month sqaud challenge. More Marauder Miniatures dwarfs.


 

I've been a bit distracted by other things, such as...

 

My 10th wedding anniversary. I had planned a nice get-away trip -- but Covid. So instead the love of my wife got assorted trinkets -- the dinosaur suit seemed like a big success!


I've been partially back at the office for a couple of months now. Me and the guy at the desk next to me alternate weeks working in & out of the office. (Attempting to limit numbers and proximity in the building.) On the low wall that separates our spaces, he's got a bunch of finger puppets that look like hands. I've been messing with them each week before I leave, both to entertain myself and hopefully him as well. Bring a bit of levity to an awkward work situation. This week I went a bit overboard. I bought some of the finger puppets as well and sculpted & painted on a pair of them, inspired by a favorite movie monster. I hope he gets the film reference!

 

A while ago, I got a few blank "Sank the Child" art toys from artist Huiyang Guo aka Sank Toys to do with as I pleased. It's taken me far too long to get around to finishing one, but I've recently got some solid work on the first one.

  2. Happy Anniversary! Any relationship which includes dinosaur suits is well worth celebrating! :)

    1. Thank you! I think our shared sense of humor - frequently absurd, and more than occasionally inappropriate - is one of the foundations of our relationship. :D
