[unofficial weekender] TGIF

@crazyredcoat @sundancer Thank you for the nudge in spirit. As far as the minis. It just took a little punch here and there with the right color to get it to pop. I think that the best observation for what we do is getting the biggest amount of contrast because we have such small areas to work with and register visually.

@ced1106 I believe I was playing with Magic the Gathering and painting a Ral Partha mini for my first long term D&D character. I also learned what Shadowrun was that year and had a decidedly horrible first game that landed my character nearly dead and unplayable.

Wahaha! Wait a sec…two posts back to back?

Thanks to current events regarding money I have now shipped out boxes held too long that were meant for Giftmas. The Gift cannon has roared, finally, as a pair of Intercontinental Ballistic Minis are now on their way to Germany and the UK. @sundancer @woldenspoons I have kept my word and force packets of peace are inbound. Duck and cover, my friends as these formed plastic parcels pierce the heavens to make landfall upon your doorstep… or rather postbox.

Perhaps with all this silliness I should finally get onto the Discord server and start speaking lines like these aloud? Eh… I’ve got a face for radio and a voice that doesn’t get any better in the shower. I think I might stick to writing these things out. Hmm… should I do ghost writing for @warzan with his hankering for hijinks in the medium of oratory overload? Should I sit and delve into the mysterious depths of the zen like meditation of @avernos after a couple of Guinness? Would my effort be better directed to wax poetic on the joy of the brightly lit wonder world @brennon inhabits with animals and people all with furry feet? Can my words match the inspiration found in the pithy observations shared by @lloyd that would hold the same bonhomie feeling and “common sense” attitude? Then there’s @dignity … well… yeah (we all love to drag the man because he’s a glutton for punishment and we figure he’ll come back like the sneaky git gob he is at heart to sink the coldest steel forged in the hottest fires of revenge into our most tender of bits when we least expect). It’d be fun to watch but crap to be on the pointy end (note to self: send more fuzzy animals to appease The Bald One).

Incoming? Oh happy times 🙂 @horati0nosebl0wer  even if you don’t make it to discord maybe join us in the unofficial Hobby Hangout on twitch? If your schedule allows and the time zone isn’t completely of whack.

I for my part am happy to report: I life again… yesterday was a bad day with awful neck pain, headaches and my blood pressure all over the place… I was in bed by 7pm. Now only a minor headache and a bit of neck pain. Will stay in bed tomorrow. Thankfully we have the day off 🙂

@horati0nosebl0wer You is one crazy dude. Its why we like you ?

@sundancer hope you staying safe buddy, if the relax quarentine again don’t believe them!

Hobby wise I have been playing a lot of fallout 76 when not working. Whole working I have been thinking about playing Fallout 76.

In reality I have ordered some issues of Mortal Realms, so looking forward to that, and working on setting up a tableette for playing The Walking Dead on. It’s very popular at the moment as its very playable solo.

@woldenspoons  relaxing?  Today will be the first time I go groceries shopping and am by law required to wear a mask… if I’m not back online by tomorrow they mistook me for a robber and I’m in jail or something 😉

[crazyredcoatParticipant 13642xp 1]

@sundancer Not requirement to wear masks here, yet, but going outside at the moment is stressful, to say the least. Hopefully the famed German efficiency means your trip is a little calmer than some of the nonsense around here. 😛

I have not been very productive this week… Aggressors still at the primed stage… I have played a LOT of Warhammer Total War 2 with a friend of mine lately, though, which is a nice break. Tomorrow I’m going to attempt a night in for drinks with a friend half a continent away, fingers crossed the internet connection holds up. 😛 Work will continue on the Aggressors…promise…

@crazyredcoat Don’t count on it. People are strongly encouraged only to have one (1) person per household to go shopping if possible… makes sense you’d think but there are so many families going shopping it’s mental… and because for distancing it’s mandatory that every adult has on shopping cart, these people clog up the isles and lines at the cash register… makes you want to smack people in the head.

[crazyredcoatParticipant 13642xp 1]

@sundancer That sounds pretty much the same as here, then… It makes me wish I could have just spent my summer doing fieldwork in the Arctic, but alas no. 😛 At least there’s time to work on some old hobby projects…even if I’m spending more time being distracted. 😛
