Matty Makes

#whatsyour2022moment In honour of the 2nd Friday the 13th of the year, we’re watching another slasher film, Urban Legends

The only downside to lvl’n in the new Midnight expansion for @worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com is I’ve just done the first zone & I’m already 85

Now that does include all of the side quests, but it means you can’t do every quest on one character, otherwise you’d hit 90 half way through the story

#whatsyour2022moment Done with the Belfast Anime Tattoo Con for the weekend & on a train home // So I’m treating myself to a fancy donut & some James Bond literature

#whatsyour2022moment Done with the Anime Tattoo Con for the day, so we’re at Five Guys for dinner
It was such a long day, but fun was had

Gotta catch them all!
Made some beautiful Wooden Pokéballs from Padauk & Maple, with a splash of Wenge. Prefect for storing your Switch Game Cartridges! Or tiny Pokémon figurines

#whatsyour2022moment Setup for the Anime Tattoo Con is Belfast this weekend has started & will be finished tomorrow
Now time for some late night dinner with @minteafox.bsky.social

Nothing I love more than being in the workshop at 11pm, just about to finish a project & finding a flaw that requires drilling through some metal hardware & a whole lot of sanding

Poor Crumb

#whatsyour2022moment Finishing off the Pokéballs with some oil to bring out the wood’s natural colour

#whatsyour2022moment I’m now a proud home owner (in @worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com)
Time to get decorating!

#whatsyour2022moment Running our Whimsical Adventuring Party through their first combat session, filled with enchanted objects in the basement of a tavern
They had fun & no body died, but they didn’t even get to explore all of the map

#whatsyour2022moment In our villain side quest of the Superhero RGP I’m running, the villains are currently in a Italian villa, enjoying some wine & cheese, planning out a prison heist

#whatsyour2022moment After a very busy day, I decided to take the wife out to one of our favourite local places
No dessert for me, but she’s enjoying a Whiskey Old Fashioned

I’ll be too busy to even look at the other tables

You’ll find me in the Convention Centre today, tabling at the Dublin Card Show
It’s so much bigger than last year, so here’s hoping for a great day!

Went to B&Q for some drill bits & spray paint, for the current projects I’m working on
Left with no drill bits & half a can of paint

This is why people order stuff online =|

Testing out how to affix hidden hinges on a curved object
It involves cutting the back square, which is not ideal, but it’ll work

Seeing as how I’ve a number of anime Cons in March, I’m crafting up a little something special

#GottaCatchThemAll

#whatsyour2022moment Enjoying a Birthday Party at a friends place tonight
Lot of people I’ve not seen in a while are here tonight

#whatsyour2022moment We’re start a new #DnD tonight, everyone is doing up their stats & figuring out their characters

#whatsyour2022moment Wife took us to a drag show tonight in Sin é

#whatsyour2022moment Leaving Cork now, viva bus, to meet up with a train in Thurles bound for Dublin
With luck I’ll be home by midnight

That’s the dream

All packed up & ready to head home
Goodbye Warpcon, you where a lot of fun

I really want there to be 3rd Zootopia film
Not just cos I love the Lore of this world but also cos I want to see bunny & fox babies from Nick & Judy (muppet rules)

#whatsyour2022moment Once again I’m getting to play some late night D&D at Warpcon

When I stay in a hotel for work, I will use the cuck chair to hold my bag & pants

#whatsyour2022moment Getting to play some late night game of D&D at Warpcon tonight before I retire for the night with some pizza

Workshop got a little bit of an upgrade today
No more standing on cardboard while at the lathe, got me a fancy padded map to cushion the blow of working at it for hours at a time
