Sandy has gone, (if she would have looked like this I’d be a
lot more upset about the brief time we had together) the power is on, and the
Internet connection is working! Damage
is limited to trees that were snapped off, a shingle here or there, and some flashing
around one chimney.
My office is closed, I’m not sure if it has water in it or
not – the only thing between our building and the East River is the FDR and a
helipad. And since there is no mass
transit running between CT and Manhattan I have some time on my hands.
I was actually feeling motivated to paint some Russian’s
again and had planned on finishing up my Russian Guard Jagers, when disaster
struck! In my earlier rush to paint
these I forgot that the Russian Guard Jagers had Orange facings, not
Red like the ‘normal’ Jagers. O.K., no
problem, I can paint over the red… except I can’t find my orange paint. Given the number of trees that are still down
and stores that are closed I really don’t feel like making a run to the hobby
store.
Maybe next weekend I’ll some photos of completed figures to post.
So much lead, so little time.
