Well, I got the commission pieces out, and I put paint to model... then I ran out of brain to paint. This has happened before and it's usually a sign of burnout or of lacking the desire to work on something. Which is fine when it isn't a commission! This, of course, is a commission, and I really need to crack on with it. Being able to work on it for about ten minutes before going "URGH" and stopping is not, shall we say, ideal. My brain is full of ideas of things to print - another Battletech mini for C, the Level 2 Wizard for my Maiden Guard (as well as more Maiden Guard and a Bolt Thrower!), some Skaven and shields I promised a friend I'd print and post to her last year, and some other bits and pieces.
And then there's that church, which I really want to paint up, glue together, and fix to a board so that it can be used for basically any 28mm gaming from fantasy to historicals and even some SF if you squint at it right.
But I really have to do the commission, so here are some photos of the "progress" I made today to try and chivvy myself on:

I'm also in the process of arranging to run a D&D campaign with some new friends from LUNAR, which will be good fun. On Tuesday I'm not entirely sure if I have a game lined up for the Llangefni Wargamers meeting, so I should organise that, too.
And then I really need to get painting on this commission...
