Congrats, well done! More money for minis!

Luckily, I didn't experience lack of money, because I had few months of paid leave during my notice period, which ended couple of days ago. I was really lucky to find job in that time without having to resort to unemployment support.

Last 6 days of unemployment! That is right, I have a job
I will not be able to paint there, but at least I'll not be sitting at home, biting my nails and worrying about my future.
With monthly goals almost done, I celebrated a little and put HARDWAR (at least what I have now) on bases.

Modeler's club today. I managed to preshade some HARDWARE terrain features and rest of Epic Warpath Plague faction today! It is getting harder and harder to preshade, because my makeup brushes I use for preshading are getting stiff. I had to rotate all three sets, to get everything done.

Another models for Epic Warpath finished. Couple more HQ and unit Stage 3A: Ghouls

Congrats on securing future employment, my friend!

Alternatively, based on people's point of view, commiserations in losing most of your painting time... my hobby collection has felt the pain of only 1 afternoon a week's attention spent on painting (if that) as a result of being employed for coming up to five years now

But such is life.

I think this will be my faith as well, at least in forseable future.

Yay! modelers club today! I managed to paint two smaller units today.

Plague mortar teams:


And plague wolverine tanks:

First week of the new job is over, finished with me taking company car home, because I'll have training away from home whole next week.
Since new colleague said he'll be going to gym at the afternoons, I packed my trusty model supplies and packed almost whole remaining Plague faction to single organiser and will be painting as much as my back let me.

Greetings from my hotel room

 

[JTSleep]

Everything ends and I am all packed and ready to head home tomorrow right after training.
Despite my scratchbuilt lamp being able to shine for only about hour before baterries drain and I need to recharge. Despite spending about as same time doing brush strokes as positioning minis just so they are not in complete shadow, because lighting in rooms was... Lets say intimate.
Despite all of that, I managed to finish two units and almost finish two more. Grand success.

Oh, and I also went to bookstore and bought Carcassonne, because there was nothing to do around hotel, so I taught 3 of my new coworkers board games.

Edit: again with counting.
