#solid snake as an ewok

[phailhaus-paints]

The 3rd Ewok Hunter, and final one for the first base, has their hood. Again friend Scott decided upon the colour for the hood, opting for a midnight blue base with grey-blue highlights

Ended up with some very Solid Snake’s sneaking suit vibes, or maybe a navy camo pattern.

Onto the leather sections for all three.

If you want to name an Ewok Hunter and pick a hood colour feel free to leave a suggestion in the comments/replies.

April 2021: A Shipment Arrived

My queen ordered some plants from Rare Roots. First off, we’ve ordered plants online before but these are some of the healthiest & best packed plants we’ve received to date: 

On the left are two ‘Sombrero Lemon Yellow Improved’ coneflowers. The other five plants are ‘Purple Rain Strain’ Jacob’s Ladder. The Jacob’s Ladder is the perfect combination of my queen’s love of gardening & Prince:  

Our baptisia bed. We haven’t figured out why the yellow is more robust than the purple. That’s odd because, normally, plants with a naturally dark blossom out perform varieties with lighter blossoms. You’ll see the same dichotomy between solid leafed & variegated plant varieties with the solids being hardier. We’re hoping the additional sunlight from our neighbors taking down their pine trees might help the purple baptisia: 

I mentioned here that we were expecting an overnight low of 37 last night (It actually went down to 36) so I covered the tomato plants that we had in the ground already. Well, here is the fancy covering... newspaper draped over each individual plant & an old plastic shower curtain covering the whole works with random yard junk used to weigh it down: 

I have yet to identify these beetles but they love blossoms. Here they are on one of our chive blossoms but they were on our Shasta daisies last year: 

We’ve never see any damage to the flowers so they must be feeding on the pollen: 

I straightened a stone today & found one of our resident rough earth snakes: 

This photo looks warmer than it was. It was around 56 degrees Fahrenheit when I took it: 

The constant vigil of The Red Menace (From this angle, he looks like an Ewok hippy):
