Got home from the hospital today, and had a package waiting for me. Marsya painted me a Monterey Jack Mousling! Cutest Cowboy EVER! Wonderful paint job and basing on it! Thank you so much, it made me smile on what has been a really, really rough day.

My father has B-Cell Lymphoma, and they will be operating to put in a chemotherapy port tomorrow. If all goes well, Chemotherapy starts tomorrow afternoon and I'll be staying with him in the hospital tomorrow night. My sister and I are trading off nights taking care of dad (in the hospital) and taking care of Mom (at her house who is in a wheelchair.

If all goes well, I will try to get pictures of the wonderful job Marsya did and post them this weekend. She also threw in a second mini of Callindra and painted the eyes for me, since she saw a post I had made on how much trouble eyes give me!

Thank you, thank you, thank you so much Marsya. You really brightened my day.

Argentee: I am so sorry to hear about this. You have my deepest well wishes and sympathies and I am confident he will respond well to the chemotherapy. I am happy that you've received your present and that he is safe and sound, bringing up your spirits a bit.

I am sorry to hear about your father and hope he and your family make it through this, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I'm happy to hear I could make your day a little brighter with Reaper's cowboy mousling, I nicknamed him Charlie Prince while I was painting him,of course he is yours so you may name him as you see fit. I hope he made it to you ok.

No need to worry about posting a photo, I'll share one I didn't want to earlier as I wanted to keep him a surprise for you. Your welcome for both minis andI hope you get to paint Callindra I would love to see her painted up.

Once again best wishes to you and your family.

I had alot of fun painting him, he was the first mousling I ever painted, I may have to pick some more up now to paint up for fun.

Wow. That looks really good. Is your light-set up giving all those highlights on the left, or did you paint him with directional lighting (as opposed to top-down)? I especially like the fur and leather vest.

Marsya: That Cow-Mouse (?) looks great! makes me want to dig my Halloween Mouselings out from under the ton of unpainted metal I have beside my painting table.

Argentee: I recently went through a similar situation. I hope all goes well for you and your loved ones. It looks like Marsya sent you a sheriff to help keep those ornery stressors in line.

It is indeed my light setup I had two for my light box but had an accident with the cord of one of them and broke the bulb. I really need to replace it. He looks better in person as my photo- fu needs work, but this photo shows him pretty well.

Thank you all for the kind words, he was a blast to paint and I'm glad you guys like him.
