End Of The Week - Brush In Hand

It's been a while since I finished anything. This week was not a week that this was going to change. I have managed to pick up a brush and spray can though. Somewhere over the last couple of weeks I've acquired a number of freebies that have managed to make it onto the table. Then there are some Fallout minis that arrived this week (with more to come) all at Black Friday or better prices. At some point I got talked into Carnevale that are now in the queue. A few months before all this I got some more post-apocalypse terrain I wanted to finish a set.
Perhaps I can say I am hopeful about the near future. I have cleaned the workbench. This is often a prelude to getting stuff done. As Christmas is Coming I suspect progress will be made but I am not expecting leaps and bounds. Right now there is too much blood in my caffeine stream so it's time to go.

Christmas Is Coming

If you have watched or read A Game Of Thrones I am sure you will be familiar with the phrase "winter is coming". Dark times are ahead which will end in a battle for survival. This is why I use the phrase "Christmas is coming". This week seems to be the start of the Christmas season. Everything is late this year. Decorations seem to be up two weeks later than usual and I am seeing far fewer lights. I am not hearing good things about Black Friday. Dark days indeed.
With all the stuff going on with me at the moment, I am just about ready to wave the white flag, until January at least. There is no way I am going to hit the 1000 goal. It was a bit of a reach. It's still going to be my most productive year ever. 

I've acquired a load more free stuff this week. Some of which has already made it onto the bench. There were some terrible ideas about painting in the 1980s. Hopefully I can turn them around.

I got some more loose sprues coming. This should be enough to finish my first Quar army. There is also a plan for a load of Fallout Factions stuff that should arrive soon. A project for the New Year. I am thinking about Nuka Land. A family friendly resort just outside the sprawl of New Vegas. It will be fun.
