Other hobbies?

I also do synthesizers:

And nerd things like tabletop gaming that I want to get back into, and writing.

Slightly late to the thread. But I like to share my hobbies because some are rather uncommon.

Besides bass obviously, I also play Great Highland Bagpipes and Irish Low Whistle.
I invest in crypt0curr3ncy and st0cks (Josh doesn’t want me to summon any bots lol),
and I love things with motors (although I don’t really have any). I have a very old broken atv and I have purchased a powerful electric scooter that was meant to arrive more than 3 months ago :sweat_smile:

That’s it for me!

Like several others here, I also draw and paint - seems I’m in good company!

Here’s a few recent pencil drawings :blush:

Thanks! Yeah, I’m working on photorealism - the details are SUPER time-consuming, but it turns out it’s also super relaxing :grin:

How long does it take you to complete one of your drawings?

@NipperDog tbh I’m just getting back into this after a 20-ish year break, so I’m sure I’ll eventually get faster…

But the 6x8" drawings (Kurt Cobain & Chris Cornell) took 10-12 hours each, and the 9x12" (Tom Morello) took about 26 hours :sweat_smile:

(Edit: but since I also have a job (boooo), time spent on each of these is spread out over 2-3 weeks!)

Well, however long it takes, it’s worth the effort.
