A Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight


It's been hot lately...  hot and humid actually, in the finest New Jersey Summer tradition. Without the benefit of air-conditioning, strapping an optivisor to my forehead and crouching over a sizzling hobby-lamp, brush in hand, quickly looses its appeal.

Yes, I'm attributing my recent hobby drought to global warming. It's very much in vogue to blame stuff on the scourge of climate change; seems right that I get with the times. Perhaps I should apply for a a government grant or some such thing.

Mostly touchups and some work on the bases remain.

In other news, a package arrived yesterday from Mike at Mortal Arrow Miniatures:


Much more on that shortly.
