The most important question you will ever ask yourself

This may be a little weird for some of you. Others will simply nod to themselves and say "of course, it's the most obvious thing in the world." However, stop and think about this for a few moments, and then really ask yourself the question I pose at the end. You have to answer honestly. If you don't, the only person you're cheating is yourself. :)

Your thoughts define your life.

The current state of your life, your body, your relationships and everything else is a net result of our thoughts up until now. If you're thinking about all the things you don't have, aren't, or don't want...that's what your life is now.

So ask yourself this question: What do you want your life to be?

Charles... I don't believe that whole "Your life is what you make if it - Life is what you think it is" crap! Life IS what it IS. I AM who I AM, that I can change. All I can do is what I can DO. I can't change anyone else, or anything they do. I can only work with myself and what I affect.

As far as what I want my life to be.. I just don't want to hate it. Is that so much to ask? Where are the damn smiley's on this thing anyway? No smiley's and this thing is just going to sound all "negative" and shit. Oh well. PS: You need a new portait. At least make yourself a deceptacon or something.

New portrait, I can do that. I have just the thing.

It's funny, in that the beginning of your comment you say you can't change anything, then almost get it right there in the middle. Then you backslide again and say what you don't want from your life. Read again and pay close attention to the question. What do you want your life to BE?

I didn't ask you want you didn't want. :P Now this time, answer the question...and answer it honestly. :D

No, I'm not going crazy...just trying to make you all think a little more.

Marvel Universe Miniatures Game - Avengers Painted

Shortly before the Marvel Universe Miniatures Game was released by Knight Models I picked up several single pack figures at a slight discount. The game dropped shortly after, but has so far seemed difficult to acquire in Canada. I'm hoping once I get out an do a few demos it will pick up locally like the Batman game has started to do. This is the original model for Black Widow, which I prefer greatly over the highly sexualized one that comes in the Avengers starter box. Don't get me wrong, she's a sexy character but I think the new sculpt is a little over the top. She was the first Marvel figure I painted. It a pretty easy paint job and I think she turned out well. This figure proved more difficult to paint than I expected. It's a great looking pose, but I wish the details on the shield were a little deeper. I'm not the greatest when it comes to steady detail work, so found doing the stripes on the shield highly frustrating. A wash or two would usually b...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in 28mm

I have to start off by saying that this might be the nerdiest post I've written to date, and that's sayin' something! The amount of fun I've had working on these, and thinking about what kind of games or scenarios I could play with them has been pretty ridiculous. I'll admit that I fully intended to have these completed before end of the year...that obviously didn't happen. There are a few options out there for figures, but they are either the wrong scale, too damned expensive of just don't capture the feel I was looking for; and then I found this! The TMNT Foot Clan Street Fight  board game was on sale for $12. After I liberated the figures out of the copy I bought, I made some cardboard standees so that I could still play the game with my nephews. It was a big hit during our Christmas holiday too! Now about those figures...on the down side the plastic is pretty soft. The paint work is passable for a mass produced product, but (accurate to the cur...

Farewell Ozzy!

This afternoon I found out that the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne, has passed away. Although I've been a fan since my early teens, I am surprised at how strong my reaction to the news has been. I had missed out on catching the Black Sabbath farewell show a few weeks back during live stream, so I've not yet seen it. A friend of mine told me about a few days after, and I'm looking forward to watching it when it becomes available. I've had the good fortune of seeing Ozzy perform twice; once at an outdoor stadium show with Zakk Wylde on guitar, and once with Black Sabbath several years later. I remember more about the experience of those shows than the specific details, and could not tell you set lists or anything like that. His impact on music and pop culture, both as a member of Black Sabbath and a solo artist simply cannot be understated. As impactful and important as that is, it also hits me that his children have lost their father, which happened to me at the end o...
