Hi All!
We're just a few days away from the start of the Painting Challenge and like many other participants, but I've been spending the past few weeks madly assembling and priming models in preparation of the next three months of hobby madness. I suspect I have far too much sitting in the wings, but at least I won't be wanting for things to work on!
As per tradition, the holiday break will be a 'free paint zone', meaning you can post as much as you like and I, in turn, will endeavour to keep up with you all while avoiding my in-laws and gorging on festive food. On New Year's Eve (Monday, Dec 31st) we will switch to the daily schedule. As a reminder, below is the daily schedule for posting to the Challenge.
All flights to the runway! Be ready to remove chocks!

PS: Not sure about the 'Snow Lord' moniker, but the snow is definitely here. This is the view from 'The Lab' today.

You look like an extra from a low budget post apoc flick mate. Love it! GIMP Actual Out.
ReplyDeleteThe fire is out, man. That's a bit excessive; all Curt really needs is N95 ;)
Delete@Millsy: Ha! Actually, the weather here makes it feel like some kind of nuclear winter so it fits. Oh well, it's better than roasting, I guess. 'You see, it's a dry cold...'
Delete@ Rob: Huffed too much Krylon over the years, mate - N95s just don't cut it.
"it's a dry cold..."
DeleteThat nearly made tea come out my nose :-)
You've never looked better!
ReplyDeleteIt's the ear flaps - they're very slimming.
DeleteMy brushes are sharp, my paint bottles full... ready to go
ReplyDeleteI am a coiled spring!
ReplyDeleteBring it on :-)
Can't wait for the start!!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely view, Curt! We had some snow, but now it's a balmy 30° and Lake Michigan is in full cloud making factory-mode. I won't see much sun till March! ;)
ReplyDeleteCurt, I know that we Challengers are (or will shortly be) the "great unwashed", but do you really think that respirator is going to be enough to filter out the stench? ;)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to kick-off on Friday :)
Tuesday will be a very interesting day. I wonder who will make the first "paint bomb"?
ReplyDeleteSafe to say it won't be me.
DeleteTeam Tuesday is indeed interesting, some big hitters in there, I'm ready to go 😂
Delete"Snow"? What is this "snow" of which you speak...?
ReplyDeleteI get the sense that your AC is not keeping up with your summer? Get ready to paint in the buff!
DeleteWhat makes you think he doesn't do that all year round anyway?
DeleteSo sad to have missed out on the challenge this year looks like it's going to be a fun one, might just have to sit here and do my own challenge see what I can paint while watch all your amazing pictures
ReplyDeleteSorry to have missed you this year Kent. I hope you can join us for our next sortie.
DeleteBrrrrrr! Snow! I haven't used the hot tap in the shower for around 2 months now. No need. Cheers
ReplyDeleteI've my brush between my teeth, my fingers are superglued together and I've undercoat in my hair - I may have got the wrong idea about being primed for action.
ReplyDeleteWell, I have all of my models for the challenge primed and ready to go. Some brand new brushes are sat next to my recently cleaned painting area and my better half has been informed that she won't be seeing very much of me for the next few months. I'd say that I'm ready to go!
ReplyDeleteNow, I was led to believe there would be smack-talk? :)
Clean desks?! I'm still clearing half painted minis! Maybe a brief spit shine if I get them all cleared in time!
