There's no point in hanging about, there's too many figures need painting.

That's great advice Roger. I will add a corollary to your comment that comes courtesy of my good wife. "If you get the figure, then I want to see it painted. so get to the workbench."

Can't argue with that Michael.

This what we've got today Joe, makings of another figure started I think.

Today:

Cloudy, cool and wet, with extensive hill fog and persistent, occasionally heavy rain. Becoming windier from the morning, helping to give some improvement in the extensive low cloud, however spells of rain will continue through the day. Maximum temperature 15 °C.

 

[Gellso]

Thats a cracking start.
Following with interest.
