Weekly Waffle #350 – Emperork
Weekly Waffle #350 – Emperork 12th October 2024 For this week’s weekly waffle I’ve worked hard to try and get over the mojo block and get something finished for you this week. In particular I have been really struggling with a large cloak. But to try and get round this I decided that I didn’t need to have it perfect, after all I’m not painting this for a competition. But I did need to get it finished so I focused on good enough as opposed to this has to be perfect. After all non of my painting is perfect so as long as I was going to be happy to…
Weekly Waffle #349 – Jackanory
Weekly Waffle #349 – Jackanory 5th October 2024 This has been something of a weird week for me on the hobby front. Which is where the title for the blog has come from. Work has continued to be really busy so I set out to make the most of what little hobby time I had. I came out of the blocks flying with the mojo levels running in full and everything I was trying on the painting front seemed to be working. This made me a bit greedy and I had a couple of projects on the go at the same time. All was going well until all of sudden…
Weekly Waffle #348 – Return from the eternal city.
Weekly Waffle #348 – Return from the eternal city. 28th September 2024 For this week’s weekly waffle I thought I would start with an update on where I have been for the last few weeks. This was a planned break for what I consider to be a holiday of a lifetime. Not because of some exotic location or extravagant expense. No this was a holiday of a lifetime because it also goes by the name of a ‘honeymoon’. That’s right folks I’ve gone and got married. (Picture here) I’d said a few weeks ago that hobby time was limited due to work and personal commitments and this was the personal…
Weekly Waffle #347 – Little Flash Dance
Weekly Waffle #347 – Little Flash Dance 31st August 2024 For this week’s weekly waffle I have tried to get some of the admin side of the post done early and I’ve made better use of my commute so that I wasn’t at the last minute this morning. I’d like to think that I’ve done a reasonable job with no last minute updates or changes needed. So time management one oh one for this week got off to a good start. I’ve also spent some time on the commute reading and looking at the pictures of an AK interactive weathering book. I’m conscious that my attempts at weathering at the…
Weekly Waffle #346 – Hammer Time
Weekly Waffle #346 – Hammer Time 24th August 2024 This week’s weekly waffle has seen me complete my first full commuting week in a long time. Back before the days of hybrid working I would typically do a few days each week in the city. With rest of week being in my local office. Going into the city every day so far hasn’t been as bad as I first thought. Thankfully it’s still light in the morning when I have to get up which helps. And being on the early train means it’s not as busy as the later ‘commuter’ one. So I get a bit of space to sit…
Weekly Waffle #345 – Dredsmasha Helper
Weekly Waffle #345 – Dredsmasha Helper 17th August 2024 This week’s weekly waffle is all about the impact of having to commute into work every day has on my hobby time. It’s going to be a bit of moan but I’m also hoping there is some positivity in there. For the last few years I’ve been lucky enough to do what refer to as hybrid working. So I’m in the office a few days a week and at home for the rest of the week. Those days in the office tend not to be at my local office, which is about fifteen minutes from home. So there is quite a…
Weekly Waffle #343 – The Operator
Weekly Waffle #343 – The Operator 27th July 2024 I’m going to start this week’s weekly waffle by saying that I feel like I have returned to the land of the living. Even though it was only a little bit of head cold last week was not a pleasant week. I had was in full man flue mode with everything being an effort. But I’m glad to report that I am now feeling much better, still tired but much better. Although I am gutted because of I missed out a cinema trip last Friday, but the misses told me it was really good film and even better with the full…
Weekly Waffle #342 – Great balls of fear
Weekly Waffle #342 – Great balls of fear 20th July 2024 This week’s weekly waffle hasn’t seen a return to Necromunda. The albatross is still looming over me but I just can’t find the mojo to go back to it at the moment. It hasn’t been helped by me being smothered in a summer cold at the moment. So all in all this week has not been a good one on either the hobby front or from a personal point of view. But I’m being a trooper and making sure I don’t miss an update. Although it will be a bit shorter than normal. There are only so many words…
