I’d offer to help with the painting, but I’d hate to ruin our friendship with lies.

 

Actually it's not that bad. Everything is SpeedPaint/Contrast/Xpress style painting, I mean I'm not gonna win Golden Demons or Sophies, but things still look better then pre-painted & that ok with me. Right now it's more or less repetition as out of those remaining 37, 5 are the same sculpt & there are 8 or 9 skeletons with torn up  gear. There are a couple of larger figures as well (one that has been sitting on the table from the start).

 

Plus, it gets me back into painting. As I'd like to bring back painted figures for my weekly game. At least this shows I can get a figure banged out in a day or so.

After thinking I was done with class sign-ups, I couldn't help myself and added one of @Corporea's new classes. Skin Deep was my very first ReaperCon class early on a Thursday morning in 2019. It was formative to the way I paint and I still use what I learned there every time I paint anything, not just skin. I can't say enough about her classes. So, if you have room in your schedule and any interest in her class topics, I give them my wholehearted and highest recommendation. She's an amazing and encouraging instructor and worth chatting with even if you don't take a class. Late comers might be extremely lucky with being able to get into her classes.

Who do I need to petition to get that class added?

 

Classes get approved and added to the schedule in batches. It took mine a couple of weeks to get approved. 🙂

 

Huzzah!

Wow, both my Shadowdeep games are booked already. They have me at two different tables, but that's ok since it will have different terrains between the sessions anyway.

Ribbons have been ordered! I got enough for two years this time.

 

[Slight sticker shock from the cost of S&H these days.]

 

Yah, S&H are getting to be terrible all around anymore. Reminds me I forgot to see how much my GSW package weighed. I was going to compare it with my Base Boss 2 package.

 

Well I didn't get every pregen printed while on vacation, something I really wanted to get done. I guess I'll trade that with the amount of minis I got finished over the past week. I still have the 6th & 8th level pregens left. 8th can't happen till the 6th, as there are bunch in there that moved on to the 8th level tier.

Well, I sure hope that that class makes the cut, it sounds perfect for me.

Glad I checked on how many ribbons I had for bingo. Just placed a new order and decided I'm in for the long haul. Or I've cursed myself with an order of 500 Bingo! ribbons rather than my dribbly 100 that I've been doing.

& everyone has been printed!! Always a good feeling to get something done for the Con.

 

Also, I noticed that Fangs of Oatali is starting to fill up, as I now have enough people to play that one at full capacity. Always a great feeling!! Thank you players!

Haw are everyone's contest entries doing? 

I have a painters (non-reaper) close to done, and a reaper figure either barely started. or nearly done. 

also a moonlight minis figure just in case.
 

No where close enough to ready as I need them to be! I have 2 out of 8 minis painted for my diorama and still haven't figured out how I'm going to get it to show the story I have in my mind. Then I gotta finish up my dragon bust, and hopefully get in my special idea for an ordnance piece. AHHH. I was so excited for ReaperCon to get here and now I am no where near ready!! I may be doing some last minute painting there!
