The Countdown Begins! We're down to the final ten figures! And it's a nice crispy 15 degrees below outside. Ah, the sweet smell of winter finally! Now all we need is another foot or two of snow and it'll be prime snowshoeing season!

I finished the Desert Warriors, completing the 15mm figures for now. I guess I could have scrounged together another ten to meet the quota, but that's just not the way things are done around here. I'll do the rest when their time comes.

I put in another seven hours working on the dwarfs, progressing pretty well. No, I don't think I'll do all 44 of them in time, but at least I won't be running out of stuff to paint. I split the batch into lots of identical figures -- for once the limited pose variation helps -- and concentrated on the first set of 16 figures. With a bit of luck, I'll be able to get them to varnishing today.

Then it's really a question of writing the final reports. The normal yearly report, resolutions retrospect and now this too. I also thought about writing a short tutorial on the 15mm technique, maybe that would be useful to somebody. And I probably should compile these daily posts into a more reader-friendly format for posterity.

Let's see.
