ignortion is a great word. I will try to use it tomorrow The spell checker does not think it is a word

Can remember a few times my car applied ignortion to my desire for ignition.

Waiting for paint to dry… Hopefully tonight I will get the washes done and can finish tomorrow. I got more things going on in life than Bob,Mik and Ken you know!

Okay I really don’t but we will pretend I do.

#23

After block colors comes inks and washes. I went all in this year and did different colors and shades on each figure.

Some dry brushing and then the bases!

#24

…and here they are all done and ready to go to their new homes.

MIK

KEN

BOB

I like the Bob figure so well I am going to do a pair of carpenters for my layout. One will be very similar to that figure. I already have a Mik. I also have a Rooster so I am not sure I can handle a Ken as well.

Giving away figures each year is part of my evil plan to take over the world. Each figure emits a psychic signal that causes the owner to develop an overwhelming urge to eat BBQ and watch trains go in a circle.

mwahaha MWHAAHAHAHAAA!!!

Travis according to the map I have you are only 6 3/4 inches from New Mexico…You could drive over for an afternoon. In the meantime you may remember that you and Cale Nelson are represented on my layout by this flatcar load…

You guys are in the copper wire business down in Silver city…

#36

That’s cool Boomer!

Travis

There is an opening with the Cibola FD for a new chief… if you know anyone that wants the job. Of course I will need a picture of your smiling face in your bunkers to base the figure on.
