Just a note to say that "I'm still out there". I haven't been painting or posting. "life" has stepped in, again! I am officially retired from the Army now and the times that I thought would start looking up, well.... they haven't. Still looking for a job (hopefully something will pop up soon) and my "baggage" from a previous life STILL rears it's head and interferes constantly. I'm not getting into details here. Those that are friends on Facebook will surely know what I'm talking about. I just wanted to say that I still enjoy looking at everyone's figures daily. I haven't lost the drive to paint, just struggling to find the time. Regardless, I hope everyone keeps posting their work and new releases (even your discussions and opinions). You guys keep the embers burning and one day (HOPEFULLY SOON!) I will have this nonsense behind me and things sorted out then the brushes and paint will be flowing. Until then, just wanted to say thanks to all of you....

Jim Patrick

Good luck to you. I hope you get things sorted out soon and find time to paint again.

Cheers,
Adrian

Jim,
Hang in there and keep knocking on doors. Sometimes part time work is a help.
Cheers
