At the beginning of the year, I started a new job. It is a job that I love and it's closer to home so things have been great. We got a new tiny kitten at Thanksgiving and he has already gotten so big. His name is Shiro, after the Black Paladin of Voltron, and he is the paladin of snuggles.
My husband and I have also started experimenting with new crafts. We've started playing around with resin. Right now, we are mostly just trying things out but eventually, I want to make dice and jewels to use for decorating book covers. Here are some things we've made while working on ways to get different colors.
We also took a painting class at our local gaming store and have started painting miniatures.
Here's the mini's from our class:

Currently, I am painting this wagon for my husband to use while running Curse of Strahd.

Finally, I am almost done building my own beholder miniature. I used the tutorial from
this video for the basics but decided to try a different idea for creating skin texture. I wanted something that looked lizardy and wart-like so I covered the body with googly eyes. It was particularly bizarre-looking before adding paint. Currently, it is almost complete, only needing teeth and paint.
