Jonny’s undead project

Whereas my two, as Phil knows, looks like a  pair of Jackson Pollack paintings!



No, Nobby, that's not rhyming slang, this time...

Hey! I know stuff!

Jackson Pollack was a bloke who turned paint drops into an "art form". They're actually cleverer than they appear, being almost fractal in their effect, but still look like a drip mat to me. Suffered from alcoholism. He died in 1956(?) in a car crash at a very early age (40s?). 
Played in a film (called "Pollock") by Ed Harris, who also played Beethoven in "Copying Beethoven" and Major Konig in "Enemy at the Gate" 



Though I do want to know why Techno knows your man-bits are multi coloured.

Good facts FSN.

A pollack is a kind of cod, I believe. Pollock was a kind of painter. A Polack is a kind of eastern European, formerly a neutral term (see Hamlet) but by now considered offensive. A polk was a division in the Polish army. A polka is a lively dance from the 19th century, for reasons unknown to me now associated with a dotted pattern. A pollard is a tree with major limbs removed to encourage massed grown of withies, a common technique with willow trees to increase the rate of basket production.

And a polecat?

And a poll-axe, a pole-dancer, and a poll  tax.

Little bit of an update on the cutting mat. There's one or two minor marks on it now, so I'll need to buy a new one this weekend.

In other news, I've painted the spears, body armour and shin guards on the skeletons... but I know everyone's here for the shiny cutting mat really


how big is my browser

[fsn]

Could we have some more photos of the damage to the mat?   



Looking good.

[Ithoriel]

Yep, looking good .... and so are the figures

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

That cutting mat has years left in it!

Great figures.

[mmcv]

Filthy mat, you should be ashamed!

Looking good
