I'm still not very good at open spaces

After 4 years (Thanks Corona) of careful planning I have successfully...

...Failed my driving test...

Literally everything that could go wrong went wrong, even went so far as to have a personal emergency (I will not divulge further into) that lasted literally all night and the fog outside during the test was so fucking thick that it could block a straw, I was not in the right frame of mind and I should've cancelled it.

Fuck you universe, how dare you conspire against me!

Quick question, what's a better letter to a friend:

From the heart, spontaneous and handwritten?

Or

Typed, inspected and perfected digitally and printed?

Autarch, this took my slow ass a week to do (Warning: Big)

Spoilered for the convenience of anyone trying to scroll or on data.

Little bit messy, that drybrush business is a bit hard.

I've been working 7 am to 7/7:30 pm every day for the last week because my company cannot effectively manage or control its staff, I have been covering for 2 people other than myself for 6 weeks now, I have worked 6 days a week for 5 weeks in a row and one of my colleagues is actively useless, disruptive and actively unpleasant to work with.

Anyway that's besides the point, if anyone knows where I can get some raw sour almonds that would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Probably the best one I've done so far, not exactly the best dry brush but hey at least I actually dry brushed this one.

Man, it took too long to make this little throwaway detail.

Damn that light is bright.

Not gonna talk about how frustrating that visor effect was to make.

Well damn, looks like a couple pages survived my purge.

It's ok, can't show it that well because the lighting in my gamer dungeon sucks

Made the bases better too, well at least you can't see the paint on them

Unremarkable visual effect

Clean those bases loser

Nice to see it is still a timeless classic.

Great artist and real life friend of mine made me a a nice Duke Nukem x JoJo profile picture, a link to her page and the full image here:

I accidentally tainted my contrast purple black (hence the purple/black staining on some parts like the chest or left bag, annoyed) so this isn't "finished" yet, I'll get the hang of this one day

Getting kinda better at this, still a lot to learn

This one didn't come out so good, tried to make sandstone beneath it but me thinks I need better paints for stuff like that because it just looks like literal shit so ignore it please, or don't I'm not your boss.

Also here is some pictures of all the stuff I have to do http://imgur.com/a/2fz34Bk

Another space elf, god that was hard to paint

Another one, pretty ok for attempt 2 I'd say.

My first Warhammer figure painted, for a first try it doesn't look too bad, definitely noticing some errors after the fact but I can do that later

Life update nobody care about.

Still at work doing ridiculous hours (over 48 a week, 52 actually I think + weekend shifts), met the love of my life and are with her right now, she's lovely...

Buuut that don't mean I don't have time for Doom, still mapping occasionally, gotta get real into the mood, just polishing shit up to edge my way back in:

Most likely going on some kinda "date" tomorrow (would be going today but 2 6 day work weeks in a row lmao fuck work), wish me luck boys. 

So I'm sat here waiting for a girl I took time off work to see contact me so we can head out.

It has been over 4 hours, why does capping myself seem so appealing? I'm patient, I'll give it 6 hours before I throw in the towel and hit the showers, and by that I mean use the shower head as a noose.
