Library Update (21)

So, for a long time now I didn't update my library status. As You may predict it only changes when something new is in my greedy tentacles. For a couple of weeks since my last update, I added some times to my list of Shame. But also I've reread one book.
A new addition to my list is Choose Cthulhu 4 based on The Nameless City story by H.P.Lovecraft. Didn't have a chance to play in it. But hopefully, It will change soon. Maybe with Cryo Chamber's Nyarlathotep in the background.

The second item is Rudyard Kipling's book from Polish publisher C&T. I like other, not horror books by him, so hope that this will be another of these little pearls in my collection.

Currently, during reading Downward Spire Lonely Hill, I made a little break to read City of the Singing Flame by Clark Ashton Smith. This is only one book translated into Polish by this author. Also, this is my second or third time reading it, but I find many new details in those stories. Here it is, as a curiosity, this book from 1991 has a Doc Savage cover by Lang. Why? Don't know. It was a strange time in the publishing industry in my country. Maybe this is the answer.

The Thing Update

After a couple of weeks of nocturnal painting, my wife and I finished minis from The Thing Board game. Then we use our lightbox to make these pictures.  We already play in a couple of games both with 4 people and with 2 gamers and they were great games. Hope this weekend we can play again! So with no furder ado, we want to show  You Our iteration of those iconic heroes. Hope You like them. In no particular order:



Here is an updated Video from Unboxing. We've got some issues with the last one.

Library Update (20)

I'm somewhat late with this post, but it was stranded in draft hell for some time. So fashionably late, here it is!
I've received three interesting specimens for this Easter. Don't know when I will read them, but I will put them on my "List of Shame". Hope that someday I will read them at last.
First are Lovecraft letters. I've got a rule for some time now that I read one of those times a year. Now I'm reading letters to and from Clark Ashton Smith. Maybe this book will be next year's choice?

Shadows over Innsmouth are the second book in the series, starting with Madness of Cthulhu. I never started reading the first one, so this is going to my bookshelf. The same as my next book.

Harry Angel. I have never seen the film, never read the book, but my correspondent said it is worth reading. Maybe someone can tell me if he is right. With this pace of buying books (and publishing them by various publishers) and my reading rate, I must say I'm buying book for my retirement now...
