So another good time was had.

Started out with me and SOF, 023 joined in around 11:30 EST, and Artoban was a bit afterwards.  Shutting down after 3 and a half hours, we've all had a good go at hobbying.

SOF says he working on his cellar bar, but we all know he was actually prepping a top secret gaming table.  Of course. :icon_wink:

And GP demonstrated that his 6 mounted crossbowmen were actually finally completed. :icon_lol:

Excellent time for sure! Yes, there are indeed 6 mounted crossbow men finished.  Confirmed. Loved 023’s description of what can happen with a smaller board, the low moral of gobbo’s and what can happen when a comet hits.
Short game 😺
Gotta love the gobbo’s.
SoF is under 4” of snow but that super table should be good.
Thanks for hosting GP

Now now, why after these things must I always defend from salacious rumor. Gaming table will come in spring, though that will probably be done even farther away that I wouldn't be working on it during any future Greet and Paints.

Next Greet &n Paint ... this upcoming Saturday, February 27th, 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.

Disclosure:  If you're just becoming a new member to sign in for this event, we'd prefer seeing relatively active members for participation, thanks!

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 I shall try and make it but I will be putting down tile in the room I use for hobby and zoom so things may be a bit more of a mess. This was also why I asked you last weekend if you had an inkling if this was still going down GP ;)

I suppose I could just set everything up on the bar for a change of view...

So far only GP, Feanor, and SOF.

I will check in a bit before 11 am EST to see if there is anyone else, and before I send out the meeting number and password.

And SOF joined us for a good while.

Feanor said he'd be back after lunch.

We're awaiting Artoban's visit.

GP is going for at least another hour and a half, and getting some painting done. :icon_mrgreen:

So ... the meeting is back up and running.

Looks like I goofed earlier with Artoban's email address, but hopefully he has the information now.

Feanor is said he'd be back, and Zygmund is now here.

Going to have this new meeting running for the next few hours as well. :icon_cool: :::cheers:::

Ok, I have left the meeting running just in case.  I will be in and out, and in ear shot if someone shows up before part 2 of today's session ends.

That was a lot of fun. Sorry I didn't make it back after lunch. Duty called. I posted my progress over in the 40K thread. I will look forward to doing this again sometime.
