Rats, rats, and more rats.

So we’ve decided that if Anya is a good girl at school and doesn’t get any notes sent home, then on the 12th of September she’ll be allowed to get a little pet. The preschool class next door to her kindergarten room has a guinea pig and she is quite jealous. We don’t really want a guinea pig, they’re a little too large, but we managed to talk her into a hamster instead.
It appears, however, that we’ve actually decided on a rat. We’ve contacted some little ratty breeders and fallen in love with the blue one in this picture. 
The problem with this is.. now if Anya isn’t good at school I’m going to die. I think I want the rat more than she does QQ I probably shouldn’t have started looking until closer to the “good until” date, but with pets that are uncommon (rats, degus, certain birds, etc) it can take a while to locate a reputable breeder with good little pets. I managed to find one quite quickly, however..
Oh man, she had better be good!
On a Warhammer note, I’ve started work on painting my ghouls. I’ve actually tested out a few paint schemes and hated them all like.. utterly. The one I’m working on right now will actually be using the same pinkish flesh as the wings on my Varghulf and I will (hopefully) tone it down to be a bit more greenish on the larger bits of skin. Anyway, we’ll see how it comes out.

OK, rat doesn’t equal pet in my house, but only b/c we have a snake. Used to be quite a few, until the first baby came along. When I realized that the rabbits I was feeding Shaitain were larger than a new-born infant, the Burm had to roll on out.
Anyway, these ghouls should be good. I expect to learn alot about blending that green into that pink. Of course, I am fully expecting you to tear your hair out teaching me how it’s done. Goooooo U!

Feeding a bunny to a snake makes me cry ;-;
