Struggling so much with everything right now, and it feels like I'm failing at everything I'm doing no matter how hard I try. Feel like I've got no time for anything just now and any time I do get I can't motivate myself to do anything 😭 Bad mental health can go fuck itself

Hmm so I sculpted this over a week ago with miliput. Some of it is rock solid, other bits still feel a little tacky ( at least enough to take the impression of a fingernail pressed lightly against it) thoughts?

New nippers from expo tools are great! Highly recommended! Not quite as good as my single blade ones but not far off at all!

Everyone's favourite cyborg ogryn drum machine, Bob, the drummer for Escher rock band Blind Phelynx. This poster is up in barracks all over the Halo Stars sector.

Not me ordering about £100 quid's worth of figures because I like them. Or wanting to add an airfix ambulance to my stash for reasons. Noooo. Not me at all.

The M3 Stuart is done! British desert army, 1941 style. Kit by Academy, tracks by Friulmodels, everything else by me. Such a Heath-Robinson looking little tank (the M5 Stuart is much cuter)! I had fun with the tools, the Caunter camouflage scheme, and the interior.

Work continues on the first of my nurgle wardogs. First time doing any real sculpting. How am I doing? Any tips or pointers much appreciated! (Used miliput as my green stuff had dried up, hence the colour)

So I have an idea for a (as usual) fairly ambitious scale modelling project. Was going to do a Cromwell next, but I have an idea for something using the airfix Katy ambulance. Hmmm. What to do 🧐🤔😤

So... How many legs is too many legs? Hoping to make this look like it got damaged and these insect legs grew out of a fleshy machinery stump... Maybe...

Tonight's hobby stuff: more progress on my WW2 British inspired kreig team, plus a making a gross death guard wardog head! Wasn't sure about the colours on the kreig, but put a dark wash on them and pretty satisfied!

Fully aware that I've come back from an amazing 5 week trip round Europe with my wife and won, but mental health is shot at the moment. Missing doing hobby stuff and can't find time to fit it in right now. Didn't realise how much of a crutch it was

For the second tank I wanted to match the Implacable but replace the crew with some Cties of Sigmar loaders which I had spare from the previous conversion.
