More silly mid stuff from me. :)
These two are based on john sergeant Madame X and Dr Pozzi.
I've already painted the Madame Q one from 2023, it just needed some update, replaced the fan with a banana, and add a little touch up.
The Dr. Pozzi one; originally it was either going to be Spamton, or Roulx but it didn't felt right, so I put it to the sides until something comes up, and behold, "mr.world largest paperweight" Tenna. My hands are shit.

BRITAIN BY BOAT : Series 1, Episode 1. A review.
If you are a fan of watching paint dry then you will have loved the first episode of the new Channel 5 travelogue series, Britain by Boat. It has to be said that both of these things are not necessarily that unpleasant, they are just tediously dull and boring.

Explaining ourselves: Mr Wemyss: Come friendly bombs
As ever, I suggest you read the introductory post to this series, for background.

Oh, parts of it can be lovely,
as we see with Alec Clifton-Taylor at
Sandwich,
Saffron Walden,
and Lewes;
and as Dame Penelope attests.
And yet...
well, just you consider Lunnon by baht. Look beyond the jolly bits, and reflect.
I shall allow Professor Hoskins
to have the last word.
And next week, we’ll build on what we’ve learnt.
Explaining ourselves: Mr Wemyss: The blue bonnets o’er the Border

We are approaching the end of the (ashlared or rusticated, according to taste) foundation blocks.
This week, we gaze into another sort of mirror, in hopes of seeing ourselves anew and what features persist under any guise.
Thus, with our steel bonnets on and an eye out for reivers, to
Berwick, with ACT
and thence, in surprising peace, with Dame Penelope, to
Aberdeenshire
and to
Argyll & Bute.
Aye: Alba. (Come awa’ ben: ye’ll ha’ had yer tay.) And let’s take a look forrads to the why and how of Scotland’s transformation and integration,
with John Sergeant, on the Caledonian Canal.
That’s a hint. Until next week, then....
