Hi all, With Spacedeck joining and talking about his interest in photography it has spurred me to make this thread as it is also an interest of mine. I'm sure there are others on here too so I thought I'd create this thread to show off you photo's, talk about them or for anyone looking for advice on camera's to composition. So I guess as I started this thread I should go first so I've been into photography for years finally upgrading to a DSLR about 10-12 years ago. A few different ones until getting to the kit I have below. Though I am thinking of making the change to a 7000 series Nikon but that is more of a shiny new toy itch rather than any …

I know I’ve posted some of my photoshop stuff before but I’m currently on a bit of a binge of photoshop and 3D modelling again recently. So with @Impulse posting in his introduction about photoshop too, I thought I’d start this thread up to see who else FG has an artistic touch and somewhere for people to post ip their work too. I can re post some of my stuff but looking forward to seeing other people’s work too 🙂

Been taking stock of my life recently and to be honest I have just been extremely bored and frustrated without having any kind of challenge in my life at the moment. Whilst I am still being paid for 38 hours work, I currently have hardly anything to do (boohoo i know) but it means I have a lot of spare time. I wanted a new challenge and have decided to begin learning Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects, with a view to hopefully start creating some free lance logos / art etc to hopefully eventually start making some money from it, and long term maybe even a career. I would also like to get into Motion Design eventually once comfortable with the software. Sick of…

As part of looking for something to entertain whilst stuck in the house this year, i've really started to get into my board games as part of having something different to do whilst stuck in the house. The general feel for these have been to either be single player games or decent group games that aren't too difficult to get to grips with so the kids could join in easily. We've really enjoyed these so far and i thought it'd be good to share the experiences of these games with you all I'll continue to add to the thread as the collection grows as i have no doubt it will! So here goes!!! @GazzaGarratt - Told you i'd make the thread eventually!! 🤣 …

So, it's something I used to do as a child with my mum, never anything big. Only ever them small square kits for kids. Since I got older, I stopped doing these and haven't picked up a needle in many years. So I now have picked this back up and currently loving every moment. Not much to currently display but I'll show what I have. Now this was actually the first one I did since coming back, I sort of liked the look of the design but it was also my Grandma's favourite animal (she liked white ones). So after she passed last year, I sort of did this in memory of her. Now this next one I have literally just finished yesterday…

Anyone happen to know where I can get a PDF of the rule book? Starting up a proper group to play this from 12 July in a Hackney gaming bar... and my old basic D&D doesn't cut the mustard.

I've owned an electric guitar for a couple of years but I just haven't learned to play it. I decided to get it back out and give it another go to see if I can actually stick with it this time. It might be easier this time as my girlfriend is also learning to play, so it's something we're doing together. Along with our daughter who just wants to strum the guitar at every opportunity 😩. We're self teaching, and using a place called JustinGuitar to learn at out own pace. Sadly my tuner seems broken and the light doesn't always light up when tuning, so that will need replacing and I want to buy a capo too. I also have a metronome but the batteries that I left…

I bought my daughter (6 yrs old) a rock tumbler for Christmas. Don't worry, she got many much more exciting toys with immediate gratification. Anyway, even though it's slow going, the results are pretty amazing. Are there any rockhounds or collectors in FG? https://www.amazon.co.uk/National-Geographic-Rock-Tumbler-Starter/dp/B01I56RV0C/

Wife gets all the credit for this. We have these wood pieces that look random in our back garden so Hayley wanted to make a feature. Nothing expensive - A standard garden gate lock and solar lights in the shape of a bulb.

Thought I'd share this in here as some might not see it in my PPR. Dax has had quite a few Nerf guns over the last few years so we needed a space for them rather than chucked in an unorganised bucket. We had a look online and then seen some Pegboards designs. I bought 2 packs of 3 metal pegboards from eBay for £41. Attached them together on the wall and then the wife used her creativity to make the design of how my sons guns and other weapons went on it. Here's the finished product.
