VFM Or FML?

Just found out I charge commission work at the same rate as a third world painting service...

So am I too cheap or VFM?

Bet my mortgage would get me quite a large games room in down town Mumbai :)

And Perrys are putting up the price of plastic boxes by £2 a go.... The same box I bought for £10 on day of release? Now that's inflation, if only I earned twice what I earned then and not nearly half....

So which future will be better... Revolution or Dark Skies or The Walking Dead....

Anyway back to painting blue goblins

Forgot the movies

Worlds End ****/5 as good as hot fuzz, no Shaun of the dead... Some classic 'cornetto trilogy' moments that leave you wanting the next one... Still wish they had made the Vampire one ' from dusk til Shaun' but fingers crossed

Now you see me... ***/5 was ok, clever like a Colombo film, as in all the clues are there but hidden well, except one big 'oh' moment that wraps it all together....

Some big movies out next month.... Lone ranger is my next big thing, get those LOTOW rules dusted down

Hot paint brush

Well this UK weather is just getting unbearable for me... Hayfever, heat rash and no sleep... Come back winter all is forgiven, and the paint keeps drying on the brushes!!!

Figures this month so far are blue Mantic goblins... X30 done x30 nearly done x40 todo
24 figure unit of Newline Ancient Spanish ... For sale soon

Need to prep more ancients units to paint, something easier.... Phalangites maybe.

So no one seems to know what skin tones to use for the weird and wonderful allies... Numidians dark or light, Spanish earthy or tanned and Libyans ? Pfft maybe there is no right or wrong, but as long as they sell to someone I will be happy and they will be happy, maybe the only thing that needs to be right is the price
