A New Q

The weather is so cold at the moment that I can't use my rattle cans to varnish painted minis. Fortunately, I can brush on primer, so painting continues.
This means that I've not just got a painting queue, I've now got a varnishing queue as well.

This has got me wondering. The current cold snap (hovering around 0 degrees Celsius daytime and dropping to -8 to -12 at night) is unusual for Yorkshire, especially when prolonged over many days, but it is due to end soon. How to hobbyists cope in climates where this is a regular occurrence? Please let us know.

  1. I usually do a lot of spray priming in autumn, so I have enough minis to paint during winter. In regards to varnishing, sometimes I have to wait for spring but if I have access to a room that isn't that cold and can be ventilated I spray varnish indoor.

    1. Thanks for that. I guess if this was a regular thing I'd plan ahead like that.
      Well actually, I'm too disorganised, but you know what I mean.
