Hey, gang
Just got back from the Military Miniature Society of Illinois (MMSI) show in Chicago. It's predominatly a figure show, but there were tables of armor and dioramas, as well. I'll be posting some pics when I get the chance.
Lots of neat stuff to see and plenty of vendors, although I was a good boy and only spent the $7 admission fee.
Plenty of dignitaries in attendance, including Shepp Paine, Bill Horan and Chris "Panzer" Mrosko, who had a booth for his New World Miniatures.
I sat in on a seminar given by Jason Green on painting with acrylics since Andy has turned me to the dark side for skin tones. Andy returned to jolly ol' England for a visit, so he was unable to attend the show. Sorry, Jenny, no naughty corner pics this time. However, we're going to attend another show in November. Maybe we can make up for it.
Tonight, I will attend my church's 100th anniversary dinner with my parents before celebrating a friend's birthday at one of the three bars he owns, all you can eat and drink for free!
Sunday will feature NFL football (I'm addicted to fantasy football). Go Bears!! But, I'll have to call a time out to celebrate my daughter's 24th birthday. Boy, am I gettin' old.
A few more weekends like this and I'll be in a coma. This is why I can't get anything done on my "Charlie Don't Surf" GB.
Peace and Love,
Randy
