So, I have not been painting lately. The Dire Avengers sit on my painting tray, mocking me on a daily basis. But so far I am ignoring them. This probably won't last forever, as there is only so much insult I am prepared to receive from barely painted plastic figures, but still...
So what have I been doing?
Playing computer games and reading mostly. I have gone back to playing some more Eve Online, some Dead Rising 3 with friends and also some other games that I had from previous Steam sales. This sale I think that I did fairly well and only picked up a few items. One of those was the Lego Marvel Heroes game. I am doing pretty well with it and I am finding it quite amusing. I am very, very bad at it, but I am managing to slowly get through the levels.
In reading, I have almost finished a horde of books that I picked up at the last 2nd hand book fair that was held here. I think that this was from February. So a couple of solid months of reading there.
Oh, and some Lego assembly. I picked up an Imperial shuttle from Star Wars to assemble which I liked. However it came with a rebel crew, so I assembled the shuttle but ditched the crew into my lego parts box. The shuttle is quite tall, so I am unable to sit it next to my Lego Emperor being escorted by his Imperial Guards. Not sure if that is what they are called, but they are the red robed troops anyway.
Will I get back to the painting? Yep. Three weeks until one of the longest holidays I have had since leaving school - 6 weeks off coming up. Looking forward to going to Gencon for the first (possibly only) time and have been planning out my shopping schedule on the map of places to visit.
If only I wasn't limited by luggage it would be better, however I guess that means that I will have to shop smarter, not more excessively... That is going to be difficult.
Cheers!
