I’m Phil. I make tabletop minis and muck about with model trains. I also do photography! I'm a Maths TA in an 11-19 school in England.

Erm, is this thing on? I have been away from all socials for a while (7 months it seems!) so thought I’d say hi. Thankyou to those awesome peeps who’ve tagged me or enquired of me in that time. It was nice to log on and see that. 🩷

I’m ok, just not feeling too social.

Here’s something I made in the last few months!

Finished Prince Haleth today for Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game by Games Workshop. He was a lot of fun, but the colour of the horse caused me no end of strife! #warhammer #middleearth #paintedminiatures #makershour

Tonight’s read whilst listening to the Mastodon (the band, not the social media) record I got for Xmas. It (both) is rather good!

Fin!

Well kinda. The funnels have been added. I need to get an action base so I can play with the posing, and some 3rd party decals for detailing. They can all wait till payday tho! #MakersHour #Gundam #Gunpla

I’ve been building this over the last few days. Arms, head, backpack and weapons to go! He is incredibly articulated, even before you take into account it’s a push fit plastic kit! He is a Real Grade Nu Gundam. #MakersHour #Gundam #Gunpla

It has space in the back to put your phone so it sounds like music is being played. That was cool, but it meant you couldn’t use your phone. So I grabbed some bits from Pimoroni and added a raspberry pi and speaker...
