We're just past 4 hours, I'm going to hang in a little longer since I got some good painting going on, and then bolting to go make dinner.

So far we had GP, Artoban, S.O.F., Padre, Midaski, SKS.  A good crowd and some good stories and yap. :::cheers:::

That was fun - extra so for a man who is in day 9 of home isolation due to having Covid 19!

Thanks everyone.

Ok ... shutting the Zoom session down.

Got done highlighting flesh on my 6 mounted crossbowmen, 5 Averland highwaymen, and 5 Aver River boatmen.  The latter 10 guys are used as free company in my Averland army, and made from the militia box kit, and a few other spare parts.

Dinner time! :icon_mrgreen:

I dearly hope you caught that Mids! You know reading stuff on the internet isn’t always true 😺

Hmmm my 1st comment didn’t make it. Must be in the in between world. Totally great group. Best hobby environment goes to S.O.F.
A sense of humour is most definitely required. 😺
Look forward to the next round!

We found out that S.O.F secretly lives in a castle.  Don't tell anyone else! :icon_wink: :icon_lol:

And Midaski was getting some exercise today.  :icon_mrgreen:

Glad it went well! I tried to join in twice, and both times my computer crashed. I took it as an omen so actually did the work I kept putting off.

Well it was a great deal of fun, sadly if Saturday keeps being the scheduling I won't be able to make it until Boxing Day, as I work every Saturday until then. Sundays will work but no need to change things going forward just for me, I'll catch you folks after Christmas.

Well my illness sort of destroyed my short term calendar.  Being so close to Christmas, perhaps wise for waiting until after New Years Day, both are on Saturdays this year.

I figured the the covid had done a number on planning. But as 60 hour weeks until I have all of Christmas Eve to January 4th off and that covid has largely canceled or pushed virtual most of my traditional holiday commitments was wondering when some item could be added to my denuded social calendar.

Just thought I'd give this a bump GP. Need to do some hobby stuff other than acquisitions.

I actually considered last week for it to happen for this past Saturday, although it's been a rough week, and there was much to do this weekend.

Hopefully before the end of January.  Next weekend isn't going to work for me though.

So with my covid experience last November, the holiday season gone past, and getting the new year started off on a decent path, it is time to have another W-E Greet and Paint!

This upcoming Saturday, January 29th, 2021.

We will start on Zoom at 11am EST, 4pm GMT, 8am PST, 5pm CET.


The session will last four hours, and folks can come and go as they please.

Let us know if you'd like to attend, and I will send sign on info via email on Saturday prior to the start time.  If you haven't joined us previously, then send an email address via pm, and we'll add you to the list.

Also, remember the on line software might be a bit funky if more than one person is talking, so please be flexible and understanding with the conversation.

Well as I have bumped this twice, I do believe I am obligated to attend. So yeah barring unforeseen circumstances I will be there.

Count me in. There is a small possibility I have a job to finish but I think I can wrap it Friday

So far looks like only 3 of us at this point ... GP, SOF, and Artoban.

I will check again in morning, and probably won't send an email with entry info until after 10am EST.
