Pledge update.  I finished my posts for my SPC yesterday.  I really enjoyed the whole challenge – one of my favourite activities here at OTT.  I’m painting anything else this week – I’ve settled upon some English Knights for my Age of Chivalry force.  I’m trying out the Darkstar metallics.  I use Vallejo Metal Color which have a high density of metal pigment but I don’t like them as they are too thin in consistency to make for easy dry brushing.  The Darkstar is much thicker, like a regular acrylic paint, but with a similar high density of metal pigment.  I’ll post some thoughts in my Saga project when I’m finished.

Summertime keeping cool:  My hobby room is in the oldest part of the house which is a traditional stone and cob building.  The walls are 3 feet thick and keep the ambient temperature consistent in that part of the house.
