Progress Report: 12/15/2010



I finished the first of three Chimeras to tabletop standard, as well as the remaining troops in the Veteran squad. Total painting tally for the month to date: 1 Vendetta, 1 Chimera, 10 Infantry! That would be 30 points if using the old painting scoring system!

For this chimera, I was experimenting with rust effects. By my logic, I could always paint over it if I wasn't satisfied. To my surprise, however, I found it quite pleasing to the eye! It breaks up the monotony of the model quite well. Highlights would help a bit, but I didn't want my tanks being overly light in comparison to my Vendetta (which I blacklined with washes rather than highlighted).

So one squad down, 3 to go! Also, I have Penal Legionnaires to look forward to, as well as two Leman Russes and possibly a Basilisk.

    When you say "old painting scoring system," that implies there's a new one. Pray tell, what are you talking about?

    Ah... no, I haven't made a new one. I guess I just meant that I hadn't really been utilizing it recently. I had put away all my hobby supplies at my wife's request, but recently we rearranged furniture which opened up space down here to bring back some of my stuff out of the attic. Now you know why I started doing stuff again...

    Glad to see you're back in action. :)

    I haven't been good about updating my progress either. I'm gonna have to do that before too long to see if I actually met my goal
