There are a lot of bangs outside. I guess we're celebrating being Australian by blowing things up. Fortunately Mr Woof and Miss Meow don't seem concerned.

Before I apply my newest decals I'm going to do some wall cleaning. It has not been done for a very long time, I am expecting to remove an alarming amount of dirt ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

The worst thing is to clean a little patch, it makes the rest of the walls look filthy

That's why I kept putting it off, there is a lot of wall and I knew once I started I had to do the whole thing. It wasn't as bad as I feared in the end, but I really should do the living area next which is probably at least twice as much wall as what I did today.

Time for Pokemon concierge! Cat is fed and entertained, pizza is ready.

I've never played Pokemon before but this show looks cute as hell lol

I fixed up the mug by shading more areas and shapes. Raising the lower rim so the curve is right and thickening the handle at the top and bottom to show the middle curve being thinner means being a lot happier with how it looks.

Using the clumsily sharpened charcoal nib has smoothed it a bit but I might need to whittle off some harsh angles still. I wonder how I'd go blocking in a face.
