Support This

If you have any interest in zombie gaming or modern gaming, this would be a good project to support on Kickstarter.

I did and cannot wait until the stuff comes to me.

CVS and Chiberia

It's cold. I had a dentist appointment today and I was running early (which almost never happens to me), so I stopped into a nearby CVS Pharmacy to warm up. I wandered around for a bit and found myself in the clearance aisle. I spotted this:

The price was marked as $19.99, which is (in my opinion) WAY to high for this set. I looked it over and laughed. There were maybe 5 or 6 things that I could use and I thought "No way am I going to spend $20 on this."
Then I noticed the signs nearby. 50% of New Years Eve Items and 90% off Christmas. Was this set Christmas? I snatched it back up and looked around. Hmmmm... gotta check this out. 90% off would be like $2.00. I would pay $2.00 for the boxes, barriers, barrels and gas cans in the set. I wandered up to the checkout, ignoring the funny looks I always seem to get when I buy toys, and asked the cashier if she could price check it for me. $1.99.
I said "I'll take it."

 I included a heroclix mini for scale.
The little guard house is tiny but with a little work I can turn it into a useable gate.

Not bad for $1.99
Plus, I figure I can sell the vehicles on ebay. Maybe there's somebody out there looking for some military stuff for an HO train layout.

2014

If all goes well, I'm going to be a father in 2014. I can't wait!
It will, most likely, mean that I'll have less time in the studio but I suppose I can cross that bridge when I get to it. In the meantime, I have lots to do around the condo to get it "finished" because at some point the place will be too small for us. So, I have to make the place presentable for the inevitable selling.

I will be trying to force myself to post monthly this year. 12 substantial posts shouldn't be too hard. I just need to remember my camera when I go to work at the studio. Maybe that can be a New Years resolution?
