My pledge to you, fellow hobbyists, will be to finish my commission and begin, in earnest, work on my future avatar piece.

I’m currently rereading Perdido Street Station when I am motivated to in time while not painting minis/listening to music.

As far as an Iron Hobby challenge I think that there isn’t much that I’d push too hard on with painting. I try and hit the highest possible level of my current experience depending on what I’m aiming at accomplishing. Now, building is a different matter. I’d set forth a custom base building goal that might build on itself close to what might be a mini diorama (if I had the funds and space that is).

Bespoke versus the horde, it’s a tough call that leaves me ambivalent. Bespoke is good as far as getting a unique piece but it kills the opportunity for exploring paint work. Hordes of drones are good to make new variants and play with colors. I agree with previous statements about characters versus line troops.

@evilstu and @rayzryr I’m sorry to hear about the fire threat. Here in my state we’ve already gone through fire season and had the drifting smoke from further west. With winter here I’ve seen snow already and average daytime temperatures are dropping toward freezing slowly (having written that watch it be in the 60s Farenheit tomorrow).

@mage Chazwozzer? I don’t believe that I’ve indulged in the right kinds of depravity to be called that.

@rayzryr There will be NO pictures of whatever kind of depravity required to be called a chazwozzer from me. Good work on the fix for the overspray though it does lend to the idea you may have ulterior motives to oiling down hunks of ork flesh that you’ll be surrounded by.

@woldenspoons Pratchett got beautified? Well, where’s the committee for Gerard Butler? I think he was annointed on one of the Hobby Hangouts.

@brennon or @lancorz Can you please confirm the canonization of St. Gerard of the Sacred Brush?
