Speedy, if you need a replacement to avoid the horrors of drinking Prosecco, please allow me to lay my taste-buds on the line.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Some bases inked this morning,rest this evening, sone bases painted and sealed.
Four emergency tanks rescaled, printed and cut out from Junior General, as I'm pretty sure even with the 'Pendraken Teleporter' the real ones won't reach me in time to be painted for Wednesday night's game.

Realised (probably too late) that my 10mm BJC British forces did not actually have any commanders.

Makes playing the game a little difficult.
Fettling in progress, ready for my kits first outing tomorrow.

Basing basically done, just finishing the command for the 139th Borcester Light/Heavy Foot op.
A unit so far down the list of presidencie, at the last General Review they matched 24 hours behind all other units, somewhere behind Category 'A' Prisoners from HMP Slade.

Finished a batch, waiting for it to dry, for a brief moment there was nothing* on my painting table. Felt weird.

Good thing the next 10mm Sudan batch was going outside to be undercoated, and Leon has an order in.





*Nothing = abandoned 10mm Ancients, single 28mm zombie, 28mm Fantasy that's been there since lockdown, 15mm Napoleonics, 10mm Napoleonics to finish , plus 10mm Napoleonics reinforcements for my three armies, 28mm British for Culloden that I must start, some 1:600 aircraft, spaceships...
