Change is the Only Constant

 



It would seem that all my virtuous plans to knock down the pile and paint nothing but Austrians, Prussians, Russians and Dwarves have once again been derailed. 

But the goofy, grimsical Quar have captured my attention like few other projects. I get odd flashes of inspiration at inconvenient times that have me rushing to the basement to rummage through boxes. I remembered a die cast truck that I felt was a little too big for my gangsters, but with a repaint could be a good lorry for Quar. And where did I put that old computer mouse that I now think would make a good tank turret? And we need to think about trenches and shell craters too.

I spent a couple of weeks on the Zombiesmith store adding to, removing items from, and then adding others, removing them, before adding something I had originally added, to my shopping cart before finally clicking Buy Now. But trying to balance getting all the support options I could want, while thinking about the future plastics, and getting a bit so I can play now, while keeping the final bill to a reasonable amount occupied my mind considerably. Zombiesmith's USD$20 flat rate shipping certainly encouraged making a decent sized order.

In my defense, a lot of what I actually buy I do paint. It's all the stuff people give to me that tends to pile up as my interests wander.

Honest, guv'nor.
