From AlexS - A Bear. Only One Bear (5 points)

This week I'm doing a lot of work and family not related to painting. But all the same, I still painted one miniature - this wonderful bear. It is well suited for 28mm scale and can be used in specific scenarios, or just to decorate the table. 

How should I take this wonderful model? I am ashamed - I secretly took her from her eldest daughter. But she has another just like this one, so maybe she will not notice ... And what are you going to do for a hobby?



Well Alex, although we all understand why your painting will slow down, it's still going to take some getting used to you not submitting huge points bombs every week. I'm sure we'll adjust.  I'm also confident your daughter will enjoy the painted bear until you find a role for it on the table! This bear looks very nice, and as you say, would be a fine accent piece for any 28mm gaming. It is five more points for your already impressive total! And was there an unofficial theme about bears that I missed?
