These are new additions to maximize every square inch we can get.

Working on a rather silly piece, but having a lot of fun doing it. I'll post it tomorrow or the day after. My art desk always looks like this when I am working.

I took a quick picture tonight - while it was snowing again! - as you can see, there doesn't seem to be a lot of difference between the blue and the black but I think I will leave it as is. Happy with his eyes, they remind me of him.

This is a tiny 6" deer skull I found at a shop. Covering it up with tiny tiles. Plan to give it to my father for Father's Day to put in his "man cave" where the computer is.

Next will be the vanity and floor....the 44th U.S. President will be inaugurated before this room is officially stamped "DONE" :)

Tyranid Carnifex & Capillary Tower. I've not yet glued down the minature plastic tyranid terrain on the Capillary Tower base. I intend to get some greenstuff and create some ropey vines/tentacles surrounding the base of the Capillary Tower to give it a higher "ick" factor. This Capillary Tower vs the previous photo shows the addition of a spine ridge on the largest Tower, and a smaller tower without spine ridges. In progress.

Another section of the embossing powder - I have stamped into the melted powder whilst it was still wet
