The Countdown Begins!


Okay folks! We're now less than 12 hours away from the start of the Painting Challenge. 

I have several bags of espresso in reserve along with a shed-load of primed models ready to go under the brush. So I suggest you sort-out your paints, brushes and figures, and get ready to enjoy the next three months of hobby madness. 

See you at the startline!

Curt

    1. It won't as it will be a rush job but I feel compelled to kick-off each year with the first entry. I think I'll go for a nap in preparation...

  9. Be ready for us, Curt. I have found some models for the Bonus Themes, at last, and a full new project (of course!).
    But none of them are easy nor fast to paint...
