I finished up a Stark Outrider yesterday, so I’ll get pics of him posted up tomorrow. I really wish there was better light in my flat/basement/hole, but for now I’m stuck where I am…so the pictures are all a little darker than the reality of the paintjob… Not sure what I’ll be able to get up to this week as I do have a few assignments coming up that I had to push aside last week because of tests, but I’ll see if there’s anything I have lying around. I don’t have anything primed, and the weather is getting a little chillier…

Questions!

Having just seen how fast your hobby/passion can drop to a total zero[*]: Is your hobby insured? Will you get some compensation when your hobby room catches fire, is robbed or some form of elemental damage due to natural disaster.

I’m not rich enough to afford my hobby; insuring it in anyway is just a flat no for me. I suppose when I lived with my parents it MIGHT have been covered there, but with an Absentee Landlord? Fat chance…

At what point does an “unofficial anything” (like uHH or this thread) get “official”?

I suppose once it gets formal backing and recognition from the parent group, or more simply just permission to use the likeness/network/IP of the parent company. That’s sort of a dictionary definition, though, albeit a dictionary written by a tired, nearly mentally illiterate student. It’s probably a good thing they don’t let us write dictionaries…

And this one is a real spicy one and really just “food for thought”: if BoW/OTT where to transit to a new homepage/forum/project system (for what ever reason) and had to start from scratch, would you join in again or would that be a point in time where you’d reconsider being part of it?

I’d probably follow over simply because this has become almost an extended hobby-family over the years. I’m not always around, but it’s nice to have a place like this with a welcoming community and some rather talented peers.

Have some music;
