One of the things that often happens to me when trying to complete some painting goal is I see something else to do and shelf the current project with the idea that "I'll get back to it." and then... :down:

Well this time I'm setting a time limit and I'm publicizing it to keep me focused. What's more I'll be blogging about it and posting images of my progress. I don't expect tons of folks to visit the blog, but I have to tell people it's there to keep me honest. ::):

Great project, watching with interest.

I'm following along, Lord knows I have plenty of largish groups of figs that need finishing. Always on the lookout for how others accomplish it.

I'm not so sure I'd want to get hit by a missile with a "dog brain" AI.

Congrats!

Congratulations, it'd be great to see some pictures of them in the field.
