A mass or resin just arrived the day after Xmas ... second Xmas?A mass or resin just arrived the day after Xmas ... second Xmas?

So I just received my Kickstarter material from Norba Miniatures earlier when I arrived home after work. I had no idea that it was going to be here as there was no tracking from the initial project. I have found that each half of the dirigible’s balloon is the size of my mouse. The platform is about the same all by itself from an initial dry fit of parts. Looking over the resin it has little flash but there are a few spots here and there that the keying isn’t totally flush. Realistically I am quite pleased because of the size of pieces and the problem of trying to fit them together with minimal tolerances. I’ve cleared a little bit of the flash on the aft of the dragonboat and I’ve been blown away by the resilience of the resin. I went from using a file to 60 grit sandpaper in order to work down some sizable stubborn flash that had barely been missed. There’s more cleaning to be done on the model. I’ll wait until later as my work schedule is pouinding me with 12 hr shifts. The joy of holiday skeleton crews.

Maybe not what BoW Ben's first thought might have been regarding glorious dwarves
