Heading south to Lancaster, PA, for Cold Wars 2012 - returning Sunday. Hope to pick up some of the cool new fantasy stuff from Bronze Age Miniatures, and maybe some float ships and flying stands. I'm planning on sticking to my "limit" this time - that is, $400CDN - so I will be "duty free" at the border. Thankfully this year $1CDN is almost $1US. A far cry from the days when $1US was $1.50CDN!

Just the Facts, Ma'am!
A fellow Frother helpfully pointed out this rather useful site of random factoids. Entirely NSFW. :-)

The Side Door...
Well, my resolution to try and achieve "one-post-per-day" has sort of fallen by the wayside. It's not that I haven't been doing stuff, it's just that I have had nothing substantive - and Tekumel related - to post.
I did manage to pick up this "Aztec Doorway" on ebay. It is an old Grendel resin piece and looks to me that it might make a good side entrance to an old temple or shrine.
EDIT: This just arrived and I see it is actually by a revived Scotia-Grendel!

"Unofficial" New Years Resolution
Don't know if they are allowed to be "unofficial" or not, but as I am generally pretty bad about the "official" versions, I thought I'd squeak this one through:
That is, to: paint, type, photograph, glue, base, or plan at least one thing each day for the next year.
Now by "paint", I don't mean the whole figure but maybe prime one or paint the coat on another, that sort of thing. By "type" I mean either work on my rules or make a blog post. I would really like to achieve 100% daily blog posts this year! By "photograph" I mean take pictures of my figures and terrain - and hopefully upload them to the blogs. By "glue" and "base" I mean the same as with painting, only referring to the very first stage and the last. And "planning" is the escape hatch - I do this everyday practically as it is...see this Pie Chart, from Larry the Leadhead.
