78 b? Revamp part 2

So, I finally decided something. Hurrahh!

The Underhive Hero will continue in it's current format.
I feel that changing the content I post here will cheapen the experience somewhat.
The Underhive Hero has always been about modelling, table top wagamming with miniatures and everything associated with that world.
I would very much like it to remain that way.

Good news: The site is maintaining its integrity.

Bad news: Posts will remain on a frequency equal to my hobby work (currently non-existent)

I will however be changing the visuals. Something a bit more professional maybe... who knows.


So what of the content I was going to post here? The art and junk?
Firstly, it is all on my instagram , so you can check it out at any time already!

In addition to this it will sometimes make an appearance here, or be plugged here, just like The science of selling yourself short and my (now dead) Bolter and Chainsword blogs were.

However; and this is the big announcement/ important part, all of that content and everything else will be posted to The science of selling yourself short

"But DH!" I hear you cry, "what about your last post?"

'The science of selling yourself short will see the The Cardboard Cartographer take a much more central role.
Indeed The Cardboard Cartographer will be the primary purpose of the blog, turning into more of an e-zine, with my personal blog as a side note.

The reason for this is the contents of my 'blog' will a) cloud the work I do on The Cardboard Cartographer and b) will by and large be covered by a new project I'm working on.
more on that later'
Well this is the thing. The science of selling yourself short has always been a personal thing.
I think I got it the wrong way around.
The Cardboard Cartographer is clouding my own blog.

So, I have decided to return The science of selling yourself short to its original purpose, and instead launch The Cardboard Cartographer as its own independent blog/ e-zine!

This is a much better move as I can create specific accounts and assests for it, as well as build up its own audience. in addition it will be much easier to move to a host in the future.

So there you have it.
Integrity restored all round.

Thanks for reading and sticking with me during this period of instability. Hopefully things will be much clearer from here on out.

77. Let's give it up for the New year (Reblog)

Happy New year I guess.

Totally re-blogging this from myself!

  Before we get into this new dawn, let us spare a thought or two for the year that has just passed.

Good fucking riddance!

2014 was not a great year for me. I'm pretty sure I spent from mid January hating almost every moment of it.

Which is a bit of an odd notion.
I have never had the urge to do as many things as I have this year.
I have been really inspired to do what I love and to try not to give a fuck about those who look down on it.
But the whole year was just bad thing after bad thing happening to me and my family.
That just created this bubbling pit of apathy and anger, which crept into everything I did and made me not enjoy, well, anything.

You cans see this in the inconsistency of my updates, and the lack of constructive posts outside of The Cardboard Cartographer.

The last 6 weeks have been a massive turn around. I threw caution to the wind and just got out.
I tried to see all the bands I enjoy, tried to see as many people as possible a soften as I felt the need, and tried to drag myself away from looking back at the past.
This culminated in one of the best New years eve's ever; surrounded by friends, enjoying life.

I want to look forward.


So that brings me to 2015.
A New Year. A new start. More clichés.

I hate that shit. But for once, I'm going to indulge in that idea.

I want to get back to begin me minus the depressive state of mind that has plagued me since forever.

So maybe lets talk resolutions.
I mean, they should be for life, not just for the New Year right?

My resolution is a bit of a cop out I guess.
Make a list of things I want and achieve that.
I want to do more. Make more. Live more.
Be happy more.

I guess it is the bucket list idea, but instead of just a one off experience, it will be goals to consistently work towards.


So that is it.
Stay tuned for more from The Underhive Hero this year, and hopefully other stuff too.

I hit 43 posts last year, which is quite a lot (especially compared to The science of selling yourself shot's 22). I'd like to beat that.


Only time will tell.
