She/her. Fan of Good Omens, Michael Sheen and David Tennant, The Pratchett Estate, Michael Ende and Phillip Pullman. Editor, translator, loves art, music, nature, travel, all things cute and soft. 🥰 European, Crowley-coded, Aziraphale-loving, 41.

I’m not part of the script department or by any means someone who decides or knows for sure - but - as someone who was a lifelong fan even before I worked on it, I believe that they love each other beyond any cosmic rules set by a single entity. To me, they will always persist beyond everything.

Good Omens 3 appreciation post: Unsung hero grader Gareth Spensley. People think graders do color adjusting, but Gareth is so much more. Every minute in his suite is a creative explosion of ideas and ways to make the show sparkle. (Could only find this one non-spoiler picture with VFX JC)

GO3 appreciation -- Sound Mixer Paul McFadden and the team at Bang! Post -- and of course brilliant composer David Arnold -- without whom the essence of Good Omens would be missing. And Freddy overseeing us. Joyous work from creatives who love the show so much.

This image was my guiding inspiration for Good Omens 3. Having lost my best friend, my best beloved, just two weeks ago, it was always about him and enduring love.

Dear @racheltalalay.com, dear Good Omens team, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for what you have given us!!! ❤️ For the fandom community, I won't put any spoilers here, but just to say: I didn't expect any of this, but now that I've SEEN and UNDERSTOOD it...I'm floored! In the BEST way! ❤️ 1/2

Been painting nightingales again with my homemade natural paints, including a silly one of a chick in a nest 😅 Earth pigments: sandstone, clay, anthracite Botanical inks: hawthorn, oak gall, sloe, willow + copper pipe for the blue and citric acid to modify the sloe to be pink enough for the legs!

Three watercolour paintings of nightingales - one adult, one chick and one fledgling - painted with natural inks.

While I'm on the ice cream topic, GO3 shout-out to the producers and execs who were tirelessly brilliant in making all three series, but especially inventive and committed to keeping the show from disappearing. (SK and terrible picture of me unwell on 99-flake day)

Prior to the May 13 release of GO3, I was planning a series of appreciation posts for the crew who made this possible, especially those unsung who also worked on the other series and supported me as the newb in the group. I have been held up by tragedy irl, but I will start with the VFX crew:

If you all will excuse me, I'll be escaping the drama and frustration and heading back to my KAJ band fandom community for the moment. Our boys just won a Swedish Grammi last night and are launching a new summer hit tomorrow that promises to be all kinds of epic. ✌️
