Rain stops play

I'd been hoping to get a couple more posts up this week to show off the headway I've made in painting up the Goblin team for the Quake. Unfortunately I've not had the chance to take photos of the new hotness and the heavy downpours in the Bay Area have left me needing to put some attention to preparing for a business trip in the coming week so it is likely to be a while before I can get something more substantial together. In the meantime I was able to knock another of the top 250 movies off of the list. Witness for the Prosecution is another example of why I do this list. Smart, fun with an excellent twist that makes the film a delight to watch.
