Hi Shawn

Anna's father was born in the Ukraine in 1924. She has lost touch with all that side of the family.

Its guilt as she has no idea if they are safe or not, the other donation is for the pets, which need even more help than the people in many ways.

I have hundreds of kits in the retirement stash, so we agreed to share a few pounds as neither of us can do anything more practical to help.

20 years ago, we would probably have gone over to help, as that was the kind of people we were, before life, age and health caught up with us both for the worse.

You could build one/some/all of your Miniart purchases as part of the Ukraine GB?

Regards

Thanks Philipp

We all hope for the very best, but things don't seem to be getting any better, sadly

A little update whilst I am defrosting, a little patch of Europe and a stone wall

Early summer one side and late summer the other.

I am really backing myself into a corner to paint more figures, and the wet palette is cooking and has flesh tone on it too.

The base

Off to find the static grass dispenser, that has been hiding in the garage for the past few years

More soon?
