Miniature construction and painting is an ANCIENT art form.

They look like they are waiting for the port-a-john at an outdoor event.

But this is from before the day when blue pigments were available in quantity.

Basically the only blue available for pigments was ground Lapis Lazuli so it was reserved for use of and in relation to Royalty.

If you think about it, the Egyptian Royal Burials were intended to perform at least a part of the function of the Tardis.

I just noticed this!!!!!!!!!!

Argh!  Saw WA show up on the reader...alas it was the wrong city/town in Washington.  So much for getting my work done in a timely manner, looks like some work will be going on late tonight as well.

A wave one to Pittsburgh! A wave one to Pittsburgh! We're going to get our--wait. We already got our Bones.

 

(I hope whoever is getting that box enjoys the goodies inside!)

Wahoo!  Just saw the tracking show up on my orders and received the email!  Now to wait patiently till mid/late next week - at least it is suppose to be one of the days I am working from home.  :)

So, since they are back on wave 1, I guess that means they did a stellar job at inventorying and staging the last three items. If they pulled the rest of the orders and just left them to fill the missing pieces, we may see 5k+ orders go by today and be done?? Maybe, I could be totally wrong.

It was mentioned earlier that they likely don't have the space to pull half filled orders and leave the boxes sitting around. So I'm guessing they are fully pulling them.. (so 700 to 1k a day).

Just saw one go by for Lucerne Valley, Ca., which is about 25 miles from our Desert Hideaway.

Did Reaper ever say something about the only 2 barrels instead of 3 in Modern Scenics?

[Jason Zavoda]

Used up my first bottle of Loctite today. Im putting together minis at random and they fit fine. I don't have many intricate or huge minis this time but lots of the small figures. I'm giving everything a check as I assemble them to make sure there are no problems with the casting. So far the only problem with my order are 2 missing minis from the core set. The details on everything but the translucents just jump out.

 

Sounds like that lost container arrived just in the 11th hour.
