Supply update: picked up/received plamo supplies from all three stores today. Stores were Gundam Planet (just ok), Gundam Pros (underrated; give them your monies - www.gundampros.shop), and MegaHobby (first time using; they're fine?)
Aaaaaand I bought even more weathering materials from a South Jersey shop that happened to stock individual AK Interactive Weathering Pencils, instead of just the sets.

I hope that Kevin Richardson, Antron McCray, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana Jr., and Korey Wise are having absolutely delightful evenings, wherever they might be.
