Finally got the French 6mm up on the forum. Now to get on with basing up more Irregular Prussians. Surprised at how relatively straightforward the flags were to paint.

Got a bit of colour onto my Competiton Army today - they suddenly look like I might actually get them finished in time now!  :D

Reinforcements have been sent for, as have The Troll Centaurs...  8-}

Cheers!

Got some paint on some figures last night for the first time in a week.
Not through lack of mojo, just hadn't had time with the new supply cover post and planning for it.
Did get out for a game of Flames on Thursday.  8)

Finished off two Welsh Noble cavalry stands for Dux Bellorum this morning, all bar a wash and lacquer. They've been sat around for ages so a nice feeling to have completed them. Ready to go for some minor adjustments is a unit of monks for the Welsh, then onto basing and painting these. Just waiting for SWMBO to come home so that I'm free of Daddy Day Care duties...

The rest of my Assyrians have arrived, but I've got a burning, aching feeling in my brush-hand thumb and index finger; tried to paint today and had to give up, whimpering in pain, after a half hour.  :'(

I'd probably injure it more with...well, you're too young to be concerned with such matters.

Hope for your sake it's not the onset of arthritis. Now getting on with a little command vignette for the painting comp.

Spent the last couple of evenings turning out plastic Hanomags. Never realised how many of the little blighters a company had. And when you spray the little devils they're so light the spray pushes them along.  :o
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

Sounds like a Women's Institute re-enactment - hanomags at dawn.

FK: Sorry dude.  :(

No painting here last night, slept 10:30-9:30...
And spring cleaning has started, so after I finish school planning and resource making, not likely to get much done tonight either.  :'(

That's all sounding very Monty Python.

"In mah day we went t'bed an hour before we got up! We sculpted thirty 'ours a day for Pendraken, wore our fingers t'nubbins and paid them fer t'privilege, AND WERE GRATEFUL FERRIT!"

Or possibly replace "Pendraken" with "Ofsted" and "got sacked for it" if what other teachers tell me is about right :/
