Now, I know that global warming has been unscientifically proven to No Longer Be a Thing, just as I know that the only reason Alexander the Great / The Mongols / Napoleon / George Michael didn't conquer the entire world is because it is flat and they went so far they nearly fell off the edge, got a real big fright and scurried home.

That said, it is a little bit hot outside, I first thought.  

Then it was pointed out to me that hot is a relative term and since the temperature is more elevated inside a boiling kettle (the science is solid), it is therefore not hot outside at all.

Wow, can't argue with that.  Amazed I didn't think of it before.

So for some strange reason not at all related to global warming, I was lacking tonight the energy to paint 28mm figures, I have run out of 6mm whilst waiting for my Baccus order, and didn't fancy starting up my 15mm projects with those two other scales pending.

I then noticed two hills trying to hide in one corner of my painting desk.  Not doing a very good job of it, because they were that unlikely bright green colour, yes, you know the one I am talking about.

Yes, that green.  My camera lens actually toned it down (a lot),

fearing I imagine for your eyesight

 

I oft bemoan my lack of decent hills, and decided it would be a brainless enough task for a less-hot-than-inside-a-boiling-kettle evening.

A couple of hours later (wow, paint dries quick at these temperatures !), hey presto.  I'd started out intending to do a bit of a slap job, and am actually rather pleased by the result.

 See you around, I mean, a-flat.
