Busy Summer

It has been a very busy Summer with a couple of camping trips and Steampunk events taking up most of my free time.  On the last camping trip I was able to get in a couple of games of Hordes with Marc and introduce the game to a few other lads as well. An added bonus was receiving a shipment of Montrose English Civil War miniatures from Neil Shuk of Meeples and Miniatures. Not a period I have looked at before but free lead is free lead. My current plan is to paint them up and use them for Pike Shotte and Zombies skirmish games.

Real Life

I had intended on getting in a solid days worth of painting this Sunday last. Eldest daughter was going off on a double date but all the movies playing were crap so they wound up back at our place. I have not been able to get my painting space in the garage setup again after the last big cleanup. I was going to use the kitchen table but that is close to the library where the quartet of teens was hanging out. So, in order to be a good parent and give the kids some space but be close enough to know if things were getting too quiet, I wound up upstairs watching Two Men Went to War and First Squad and didn't lift a brush.

Oh Well.....
