I just finished watching the big reveal. Crusade mode sounds like a great escalation campaign built right in. Better terrain! No more tagging tanks! I'm into all of it. Give it to me. Also, squish 'Rona so I can actually play the [big bad swear word]ing game again.

I'm burned out, been doing too much painting and not much else but don't want to drop off the thread so here's a 25 minute Contrast ammo grot to keep my conscience clear: -

Windsor & Newton Brush Restorer is gold when it comes to brushes that need a bit more attention. I use it on Brush Spa Day every couple of weeks. The Masters Brush Soap is good for more regular cleaning and conditioning after a regular painting sessions. I like natural sable hair brushes for all detail work. Windsor & Newton Series 7 are my drug of choice. Be sure you order from a reputable place if you go this way, there are counterfeits out there. I recently picked up a daVinci Maestro and like it, though not as much as the W&Ns. Natural hair brushes are a bit more expensive (but not that much more), but if you take care of them they'll outlast synthetic brushes many times over. Just something to consider when the tip of that newish taklon brush starts to fish-hook. That being said, I do use synthetic brushes to block in colors, apply washes, Contrast paint, etc. I'm pretty happy with the Princeton Select Round #1 (bought mine at Blick's in Portland). I think the white handled Army Painter brush line is pretty good, and use them for my metallics. I don't like Reaper brushes, the ones I've bought really like to fork. I haven't bought GW brushes in years... that's not a value judgement, just haven't tried them. YMMV.

Have you considered a CCG play-mat trimmed down with a fresh x-acto knife?

This week, the goal is to turn this pile of subcomponents and bitz into a completed model. My wife got it for me for Christmas mumblemumble years ago, and it's long past time to finish it off. -

Great job on both of those, Ish 👍 👍 It's hard not to love crazy ol' M.O.D.O.K.. I think the model I'm happiest with is my Primaris Lieutenant. The Squigbuggy was more fun, but I think I did a better job on the Imperial Fist... -

Must be something in the water. I haven't made great progress on my Hellblasters either. That looks like it's gonna be cool, btw. -

Dice Age Games in Vancouver is now open with curbside service only. Had to try it out. Great news, it works perfectly! -

Alas, these models were assembled long ago. Once this [big bad swear word] blows over, I'll be first in line to buy another box and bolter them up like dog intended. And yes, most probably. -

I'm making progress on the Aggressors. Painting a maze of hoses is aggravating (presumably where GW got the name from). -
