Twenty years ago, plus? My Livejournal was created over two decades ago. My original online journal actually started a bit before that, but prior to this account I was wrangling with doing it manually, and at the time it was a huge pain in the butt. I still crosspost stuff there as a backup, and to interact with the few original gang that I haven’t seen transition to other social media.

Noboto Ivorinium

Cute little dude. About a head shorter than most glyos guys. Nice semipearlescent sort of plastic, with only minor painted eyes on the heads. Probably tampo rather than hand painted. Additional head is #Protoclone, newer toys have a more skrull-like pointy eared Quallerran.

19 parts, including a thin neck ring, belt and backpack which are nice details and filler.
I am not sure which head I prefer. The variance is slight, but definitely different. I can see why they went with a more dramatically alternate head later.
Finished season 5 of the good witch. Catching up with Brooklyn nine-nine on Hulu. Up to 2016 so far.
Allison made a gallette with broccolini, garlic bulbs, chard and goat cheese for dinner. the first I ever had, and it was delicious!

#glyosbuildchallenge pontoon howitzer artillery made from a #gohlem and has a prop-powered drive system.
Just fiddling while we watch season 5 finale of the good witch. Backdrop is the finally finished scarf made by Allison.

Dead Guy – Roman, c. 300 BCE, terra cotta

Part of a tableau depicting a battle between the Greeks and the Amazons.  Photo by Charles Reeza at the Museum of Art and History, Geneva.

People have been fooling with little toy soldiers and civilians for a while now.
That booty just makes me laugh. I can’t help but wonder if one of the other figures had a tiny arrow or three in them. (I know if I had made a tableau, at least one of them would have an arrow in the rump.) That shoulder blade hole would hold a weapon nicely. #toyphotography

Callgrim The Order and warp pack.
I am unsure which specific wave this is from, because there are a lot of different types of theses dudes out there. If any members of the glyos gang out there can help, I would appreciate it! I didn’t have much luck in this case with the wiki or Rawshark’s I’d page. Maybe it was dyed by the previous owner?

Plastic is less brittle, a little more pliable, like a classic star wars figure. It has memory and returns to shape pretty quickly.
25 pieces total, a lot of attention to paint on the lines of the figure in a dark blue / indigo too match the head, gloves and boots. Reminds me a bit of a skeleton in hockey gear.
He came with a warp gear pack, which is 8 of the pieces, including 2 that could be alternate heads.

Elite Gohlem – Toro, captain of the empyrean elite guard, the Gearo last line of defense!

I really just love me some Gohlems. hard to see via my potato phone camera in this light, but it is quite pearlescent in the sun. The solid red makes a difference between him and the red and steel pearlized “Optimus Primealike” of Empyreus 2.0

29 parts total, with the usual excellent black paint detail in faces and chest crest / square inserts.
Comes with the usual alternate heads, scythe and straight blade weapons.

Unpacked some goodies out of quarantine mail. A bundle of Bog-nars and a pair of Phaseon robots comprise a lovely team of green sourced through the glyos exchange.
I am a big fan of Bog-Nar, a nice hybrid of Swamp Thing and Man-thing. The alternate fish-man Gol / zombie nekroid noggins make for excellent use of the colorway.

Helminth T. Gusano, Jr, the Apple-headed battle worm.
He is not happy, trying to live up to his father’s legacy. He is also a pacifist and prefers beekeeping to pit fighting…however, “needs must.” Have pity on the poor soul, but mind the mace.

Rainbow warrior to the rescue!
Maybe I should cycle the spectrum across all the source figures, just to see how well that comes together. Have a whole army if multihued heroes! Let them Duke if out with the granite Gray Gohlems?

Or just fight alongside a giant Kermit the frog?

Swamp walk was cut short… I made it to the wetlands… Twice. I had to turn my loop around at the 3/4 point because someone one the street where I walk was having an outdoor picnic party with about 20 people (maybe a dozen children and about 10 adults in view) having a good old time splashing and running around, drinking, generally socializing and apparently ignoring the fact that there is a seriously contagious disease happening to the planet right now. No masks in sight. As soon as I realized what was up, I did an about face and headed home. I really hope that those folks don’t hurt anyone as a result of carelessness or idiocy.
I saw an old couple on the porch of one of the nearby homes that have a Confederate flag on the pole out front. (Three houses on the loop have that loathesome decor, sadly.) Non-vulgar creatures spotted were several turkey vultures, a grey and white cat, a grumpy little yard dog, 3 squirrels, and something splashing in the water… Turtle or fish likely.

Had my first ice cream bar since well before the quarantine. This is my frankenbuild interpretive dance of how that feels.

Man, it is so good. I could feel the chocolate fudge-coated vanilla goodness in ever capillary and nerve endings. I love me some ice cream on the easiest of days, and this week has been rough. Thank you to my wonderful wife for getting magnum bars along with our deliver of standards like , bread, cheese and veggies (which are all vital and delicious, too!) #Glyos #toyphotography #spymonkeycreations #cappyspace #Onelldesigns #Battletribes #megamerge #fallout power armor
