Google is out here telling people that US Citizens over 18 must carry ID. Which is wrong. Feds definitely can't mandate that, states very probably can't.
I would ordinarily leave Google feedback, but I find myself unable to do so without the use of abusive language, so I will wait on that.

Don't worry if the tide goes out
Don't worry if the sun goes down
Don't worry if you get caught in the rain
Don't worry if the fish don't bite
Don't worry it'll be alright
Don't worry you can throw your net again

Early in the project, I was rethinking life choices. But sticking with it paid off.
Best I can do? Probably not. Best I've done on one model in one night? Probably.
Thoughts:
1: The Deck is an amazing concept. I have both pre-ordered, and can't wait for release.

Got my first mini of the year done last night. It's a necromunda squat bounty hunter I primed years ago, then couldn't decide how to paint.
Ninjon recently previewed his Deck of Many Colors - cards with art and 5 suggested paints from the art. Used a sample card from the video.

Today? Not many. On the other hand, I'd pay cash money to watch the guy in this picture in a fight with Andrew Tate.

Good morning from Honolulu, where the greetings on the west side train platforms commented on how nippy it is today.

So now we have happy American officers, field grade and up, behind trays of American Thanksgiving food, in their dress blues, ribbons and all, ready to dish out food to the British soldiers.
Who are now sitting at Officer's Mess tables that had been fully set with Officer's Mess stuff.

Not spectacular. Definitely not unique. But the photo you have to take if you have the chance.
