Nekromaton is a homage to the Baron of Hell from the DOOM series

I love this sculpt, especially the alternate human skull and batlike noggin. Cthulhu-type is a win, too.

This is my second in this sculpt series, the first being the azure pterasaurian, and the colorway is so alternative that it is really like having two completely different figures. (Both are video game homages, too, if azure is related to DBZ like I suspect)

Unrelated to anything, here on quarantine day 127 BHK and I are watching indian matchmaking and it is pretty engrossing and entertaining for a “reality show.”

I am so glad that we get along so well and can enjoy chilling out together, even after so many days of isolation and stress.

Ain’t that America?

Secret police snatching people off the streets in unmarked vehicles, bounties on American soldiers while the president was aware of it and doing nothing about it, suppression of the press, suppression of the president’s own task force calling for 18 states to shut down completely to control the pandemic, hiding information about the out of control pandemic raging through our country, children separated from their families and living out their childhoods in cages…

This is America. Do you still recognize it?

ETS Marine is an homage to Doom Slayer from the DOOM series.

DX ETS Marine Production PVC. Olive Green with fair flesh, brown, yellow, and metallic green paint applications.

ETS Marine comes with bonus chain blade and u-clip accessories by BrickArms. Chain blade I got was cobalt (comes in 3 different colors, silver, translucent blue or cobalt- all look great)

Grapevines planted in the back yard today. Two green (white) and two purple.

We used to have a big garden back there with cucumbers, zucchini, lettuce and more years ago, and it will be nice to have some edibles out there again, next to our only remaining goodie, a cute little asparagus fern.

Dx Tekroid in Cobra head, “all hands on deck ” configuration.

Tekroid’s use of dull off-white/green skintone, green details, and glossy black parts along with available Onell Design/Toyfinity crossover accessories are similar to the Borg from Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Walkabout Wednesday morning

Swampwalk gallery post social distancing day 125. Happy ides of July!

Pretty clear day so far. Left for my promenade early, but the heat was already starting to ratchet up. Saw @something.about.annie at the final stretch, she and a buddy were returning from a foot jaunt in the other direction,  down by the bay. She had an iced coffee, and I was envious of her cold, wet caffeine souce in hand. She kindly  complimented my Appalachian trail bandana and sloth dressed as the flash t-shirt. (Given my gait, highly appropriate) always nice to see her!

Of the non-human lifeforms seen… 3 osprey, some buzzy mosquitoes, two spiderwebs with spiders installed,  some small brown birds, and disturbed swamp water that may have been frog, fish, turtle or gill man.

This one osprey was showing off, or just having a good time scoping out the region from the top of the tallest nearby tree.

The wind  briefly whipped through the leaves and made a sound rather like the long pained sucking through your teeth after getting a paper cut. 

Indian pipe is very dark now, I suspect it will auto digest soon unless we get some fresh rain.

Plants seem pretty green and healthy. I wish I knew more about local foraging, because some of the leaves looked like they would make a good snack.

I have to remember to get breakfast prewalk. Post walk, I had a pretty tasty granola in vanilla yogurt and some supercooled grape drink from the 3 liter Scotto sippy container.
