Slurring. That’s what I need to do. Low G/A -> F is flawless. G -> B Fine. High(er) C->F fine. Low G/A -> High(er) F not as smooth as it could be – mostly because of the changes in embouchure at C, G and C. So back to C->G->C->G->C slurring. Over and over again. Until

Well, I’ve got a shot of a Bb Bass from the band. It’s certainly different from the baritone – needs a lot more air through it for a start. It’s not just the air though – my embouchure technique, while fine for my baritone, needs to be completely changed. The mouthpiece on the Bass is

Today was an odd day. Everything went remarkably smoothly in the morning and then Epic Fail began to flow across the interweb at me from the East. Fortunately, a few swift verbal corrections to counter the ridiculous groundless assertions (No! Black is NOT white!) countered the incoming bogon flux and from there the day improved.

Well, when I got up this morning, the rain had stopped and the sun was out. But it’s raining again! Bucketing down! With gusto. I mean, it’s really really trying hard.

Ok, so the mighty mouse is a thing of beauty. It’s an accurate, comfortable and pretty mouse. Except it has a tiny little pea-sized rollerball embedded in the top for scrolling in 360 degrees.

It’s bucketing down here. Nothing new, you’re probably crying, because – after all – it’s rained a LOT this summer. No, really, A LOT. No, this is different rain.

I thought I’d post a picture of a couple of things I’ve finished painting recently, just because. First of, this here is a goblin wolf chariot – a nasty little beggar that scoots across the battlefield and causes a fair pile of impact damage whenever it hits anything. It’s best used to even the odds

Frederic Chopin lies on his deathbed dreaming his final dream. And for some peculiar reason, he’s dreaming about cutesy Anime characters fighting monsters and trying to save the world from the taxman! If this is an indication of where RPGs are going, then I’m a very happy bunny. The storytelling is beautiful, as is the
