Hobby progress and conventions for autumn!

Now that I've more or less survived a friends stag party and recovery is well on it's way it was time to get back into hobby stuff again. Hard to get a good flow going when you are interrupted every few days and can't really focus on a project from start to finish :) But still the "last" unit for my 101st army is gathering paint and is really only needing highlights on their jackets, skin and the guns and then I'm done. I still have a few sniper stands, half a platoon and an MG platoon left, but I never really seem to run them in a game so I guess they'll have to wait as I really need to start working on the Waterloo project again. Roughly 16 battalions and a handful of squadrons to paint up still.

But more importantly I managed to book flights to Belgium to go and visit Crisis in the beginning of November! I was looking for a longish weekend getaway with the missus for the autumn when I remembered that Crisis was held during that time frame. After some excellent argumentation on behalf of tiny lead men and some vague promises related to the diamond district, Antwerp was settled upon. Judging from the pictures I've seen on the blogs over the years it should be a very nice weekend. Though I have a feeling that the 23kilo weight limit on air travel might prove to be slightly too little :) At least now there is something to wait for as the Finnish Summer is turning from a record heat wave into the regular rainy affair that it normally is.
