Still haven't popped positive for Covid, so that's to the good. Was able to take advantage of the weekend's good weather to get a good gunmetal base layer down on the armour, and then gloss clear coat it. Of course, then Monday unleashed torrential downpours. Partially cleared up today, but it's still dodgy looking for the rest of the week. My optimism is not being hugely positive that I'll be able to get the colour scheme and assorted knick-knacks in place before Star Wars Celebration.

I've actually been doing a re-watch of Buffy the Vampire Slayer in the background the last week. Some of those episodes still hit the emotional punch points, although I find it weird that for some reason the music of the series always makes me think of Shadowrun.

This almost deserves an appearance in the funny things thread, but...

Well I'm trying to semi-self isolate because one of the guys I was in the office with on Monday popped positive for Covid. Added fun, since dad had a round of chemotherapy this week. So far I'm still negative for Covid, so hopefully that continues. Although I might push it to spend most of next week working from home and not bothering to go into the office at all. On other matters, an important question.... Am I putting together too many stabby tools for my Mandolorian? And will I actually get a clear stretch of good enough weather to finish it off before Star Wars Celebration?
