I have a problem with women

Why does nobody sound surprised? The main problem is the expense. Again, no one sounds surprised. I hand paint my people, for the most part, and there is very little in the way of women with appropriately long skirts for 1906. Prieser makes some sets that are more expensive than WS, and the best for my purpose only has 2.

So, on a different project/experiment, I'd painted some previously enjoyed teabags (after I'd used the previously enjoyed tea as ploughed fields) a tarpaulin green.



The campsite is still needing the tent poles, guy ropes and all the other details.

I have also been working on a building for Brockville that is just getting the interior details.


The upstairs I originally envisioned as an office, which put me back to the problem of the short skirts. "Lightbulb". The green tarps! Meet my painted ladies.
