Care home visit to see my nan. She’s 97, skin and bone, but still managed a smile and a chat (between naps).
Out for another evening wander. Through the local churchyard…
This frame from the DUNE Part 3 trailer is very Powell & Pressburger.
Helmet illustrations for the cover of '60 Years in Space' ttrpg. Available here… half-apress.itch.io/60-years-in-... #illustration #SciFi #ttrpg
More nature beneath the buzzard’s nest. Can only assume this was dropped as it was being brought in for the chicks. #UKWildlife
Not far from me you can also travel from Constable Burton, to Burton Constable.
A little reminder, that if you like spaceships, and a bit of sci-fi world building, you can buy a digital copy of my book - Weird Field World here… thisnorthernboy.gumroad.com/l/wfwbook #Spaceships #SciFi
One of two baby Robins in the garden today. Also baby Dunnocks, Great Tits, and Blackbirds. It's like a feathery nursery out there. #Birds
Layout ideas for my spaceship zine coming along. Its going to be a mix of sketches and finished illustrations, with odd snippets of text here and there. #Zine #Illustration #Spaceships
Evening stroll through a big herd of bullocks, on to the river bank, through the churchyard… Heart rate getting quite the workout.
