Had to channel the sadness into something, so I made a weird game mockup :)

A pixel art mockup of a weird text-based / point-n-click game idea based on the Jurassic Park character Alan Grant, called Alan's Dream. On the left there's an inventory containing a velociraptor claw, broken eggs, a map, a pocket knife and two flares. In the middle there's the title 'Alan's Dream' and a screen with illustrations depicting Alan, holding a raptor claw, and a velociraptor saying "Alan, wake up!". Underneath there's some text: The velociraptor calls out your name. You have the feeling you've been here before. What would you like to do? 1. talk 2. use item 3. ignore. On the right border there are some decorative leaves and branches and maaaybe a hidden little critter (it's a snake, a sneaky little snake curled around a branch). In the bottom right there's a floppy disc save icon and a settings icon.

the tap symbol is a little dolphin :)

Non-shitty close up of the card, so you can actually see the dolphin.

Sol Ring proxy

Shitty picture of the magic card Solemn Offering, with a bunch of stickers on it, part of the name is blacked out turning it into Sol Ring. The stickers depict a pixelart sol ring, as well as the words 'artifact' and 'tap to add mana'

Got this tiny tiny shitty digital camera at the toy-store today. Look at what amazing pictures it takes 😍 (and yes I set the date back 20 year for that authentic feel)

Overnight camping trip with the little pack mule :)

Bikepacking mountainbike on a little ferry :)

Two basic camping setups in the woods, one hammock and one ground tarp shelter.

View of a river past a tree leaning into the water. Sun peeking through the leaves.

Oh yeah this new carrousel thing is working perfectly! You can clearly see all 4(!) pictures I just posted :p My old man brain honestly couldn't figure out where to click to move that damn carrousel along :D

screenshot of blsky website, post with 3 and a half pictures in the new carrousel feature, 4 pictures are posted though, but there's no way to tell, hehe

Old school fantasy orc done!

MAARTEN BOOT@maartnboot· Apr 15

Wash done, highlights done, just needs some varnish and basing ✌️

MAARTEN BOOT@maartnboot· Apr 12

slowly getting there

thanks GW for already sending me the Hippogriff Armoured Troop Carrier

Working on a super colourful old school orc baby :) So much fun. I'll probably end up using an oil wash to tie everything together, but it'll still be much brighter compared to my other minis :p

Just played Carimara by @bastinusrex.bsky.social It's a super atmospheric short puzzle game. Amazing visual style, great story and lots of secrets and creepy/cosy things to discover ✌️

Driving an hour through the pouring rain and mud and getting a coffee and grilled cheese in a forest restaurant is my idea of fun.

Pfffff, my gf went to London and all she got me was this cool shirt and this amazing book by one of my favourite miniature sculpters! Thanks @nic0lele.bsky.social you're the best :)
