Came to paint this morning, lot of stuff just needs that final touch and finish... (well 12 phalangites, 7 prussian Grenadiers, 9 6mm dragoons, a Ginat badger)

And my eyes just do not want to focus to let me do it.

bahhh Humbug and are Opticians open again yet?

Go see an eye doctor, I paint with 4X or 5X reading glasses, makes OTS look like 28mm

I have a similar one to this. Bought it three years ago off Amazon, it’s made a massive difference to my painting

I’ve had mine 10 years, I find can’t paint without it these days. I really should get a spare one.
