Are you there long term, or just for a visit? I've been told I would love it in that area, so I have considered looking for jobs there (though my Michigan an my NY friends think that is a bad idea).

What's not to like?

I would suggest a worktable, cause you're agonna have a huge crick in your back by the time you're done.

I paint wargaming minis.  LOTS of wargaming minis.
Apple Barrel paints do fine.  You just have to know how to properly thin them during use.

I have painted minis for a decade and for about 3 years of that I've done it for money (I still would but the market for it up here is kind of shit). Apple barrel are great when you're starting out and suck but at some point you'll want to move to citadel, vallejo, or another higher end acrylic if you want your stuff to look good. Apple barrel will crack or yellow over time and occasionally chips and rubs off much easier when played with or handled.

I guess apple barrel paints are okay for terrain, which is all that I use them for.

Oh the paints are not mine, the guy who wanted me to paint his guitar just gave me the guitar plus some crappy materials to work with, it's sometimes nice to make due with what you have... That said, I'm glad I brought some paint brushes on my own because his were terrible. I have a proper studio space (with a desk) and good quality paints where I usually reside.

Kat, I'm here till September 12th for this time, but I'll be back in late November - mid December!

We were very confused when you said you got murdered by Riddick. It makes much more sense now.

Also we took badass photos of my group as the Crazy 88s. I will def share once they are shared with me.

Metope, those flowers look great!

Re: Paint- I think you can make any paint work if you have a decent brush, but that's not to say I don't have my own preferences. If I'm painting bottles, flower pots, etc., I don't mind Apple Barrel/Folk Art/Craft Smart. With a decent sealant, they're fine. But- I try to avoid putting them anywhere near a canvas. I'm a Liquitex/Golden girl.

On holiday.  We stayed in a village north of Lucca.  From one end of the garden (the whole plot is 14 acres) we had this vista:


It's usually hazy, but the day after a big thunderstorm was was clearer than I've seen there before, so we could see Corsica (the shape behind the obvious island):


and Elba (the shape on the right, behind Pisa and Livorno):


If you look closely at the image of Pisa, you can see the Leaning Tower (which is 25 km away).  Here it is cropped out of the above picture, which was taken with my longest lens (210mm APSC = 315mm equivalent):


and the same view, handheld at night:


To prove it was a holiday, here are my grandchildren sitting against the cathedral in Pisa after we discovered they can't go up the tower until they are 8:


Here is my sister-in-law's house, which is where we were staying:

Recently, I began to suspect that my hair was thinning, so I did a thing.









We did confirm that I was starting to thin once we cut it down to buzz, so it made me feel much better about the choice, but I'm a gonna miss that hair.

Ah, but when the shave grows out a bit, it feels like velvet...

You may also find that more grows back.  The finer hair from the thinning follicles were probably getting broken and pulled out by the length you were keeping.
