Space Goblin goes to the opera!
Nell of Lamp Post Projects (lamppostprojects.com) painted this for me as thanks for playtesting their Fantasy Opera games. One doesn't wear a space helmet to the opera, so he's wearing an opera coat with a star pattern.

The Dan Dare kickstarter is live!
As a fan of the original Dan Dare this looks like a really exciting modern take on the story.
And as a fan of, like, comic books about spaceships, this just looks gorgeous.
Very excited to back this!

After days of being blocked I'm making progress again, and have finally reached The End!
