So much great stuff, one is nearly tempted to walk the path to heresy  And do you really want to smooth the edges of the small bio-tank. It looks more thematically fitting with the uneven top in my eyes.

Arakasi - and then it all stopped......
Theo - Many thanks my friend, appreciate it.
graven - Probably my favourite too, I have been building a setting around him in my head, mostly 40k, mostly RT to be fair
Viterbi - Turn your back on the false emperor, the corpse god holds no real power  There were plans for broken tanks as well - in those cases the contents would not be quite so.....intact. Still are plans to be fair - just didn't happen in the timeline.
CB - Thank you, gutted I couldn't get round to finishing for the comp.
Doc - Thanks as always.
Hobby time kind of disappeared into the warp during June and July. Started back at work from furlough, playing catch-up with all that head office had done whilst we had all been off...And then redundancy. Today was my last day at work, after 25 years with the company.
It was a head office decision, not my company, and there were over 900 of us across the estate, many of whom I was genuinely shocked by, an awful lot of experience has gone, but ultimately I understand the reasons, and they have been very generous with the redundancy offers,going way above statutory, who h was ok in my case to start with due to service.
So I don't need to panic right now about getting a new job, but nevertheless, not what I was hoping for or even expecting to be honest. So very mixed feelings at the moment.
I did manage to complete June's painting challenge - but bad pics.
July's did not make it though...
And have started trader...
Hopefully August will see more progress.....

Sorry to hear about the job. 25 years! A monumental stretch. New models look great. Love the stilt walker. Here's to better things and more painting in the future.

I really hate it when companies ditch the older, experienced people for younger (read: cheaper) employees. But, that's the way of the world nowadays.
Hopefully, you'll bounce back on your feet!

25 years is a good stint, shame they’ve decided to let so many of you go. Best of luck in finding something new.
In better news the stilt walker looks fantastic!

There is nothing quite as random, or inspirational as a few pages of monkeytroll. Glorious to see.

Painting Within the Lines
|
Sorry to hear about the job. I'm in the same boat, but only had six years before the mast.
Hang in there, you'll pull through.
I sincerely hope you get some hobby time soon. And regularly.
I've been going like crazy trying to get work to fill the salary void. But making space in my schedule for painting has been a life saver.
