This weeks pledge, to finish the Malifaux minis from last week and another batch on my hobby year pledge. I have found that one should seal work between layers of airbrushing in order to avoid stripping paint. I hit the edges of the minis with black, let it sit and then covered them with vinyl masking tape that molded around them to get better coverage. It seems that the pressure of the tape as it molded had enough force to pull up the paint as I removed it before sealing. Back to the edging/sealing.

The second batch of Malifaux minis will be easy as well as I apply the concept I learned for drawing years ago in not getting caught up on the details at the beginning.

1. My biggest hobby regret/disappointment regarding the hobby has been and still is seeing what I have sitting unpainted. In general I’m pretty happy with everything else. I have a KS of minis that has yet to be fulfilled but its but one of many I have had that is successful. To get all my resin/metal/plastic coated would be the best thing for me as it would mean I spent my money and it wasn’t wasted.
2. I don’t have an absolute favorite board game. I have enjoyed many but none enough to say this or that must change about them. In tabletop gaming I quit active play from the time my favorite FLGS was shut down and I turned to focusing on hobbying. I’ve since moved around a bit but haven’t gone back to gaming.
3. Giftmas presents are a go. The Giftmas gun is loaded and, using the advanced aiming technology ported from Orktober, they might go anywhere.

Bonus: My biggest wish for Christmas… to be able to spend it with somebody and have it feel like Christmas. The simple joy of opening gifts while enjoying a day of food and drink without a care in the world other than seeing smiles of gratitude. Yeah, its little victories like that which make this long war tolerable.
