I seem to be coming out of my painting rut! I managed to get the highlighting and metal details done on the two models I first started painting (checks back – errmmm, crap – errmm – surely not that long?) four weeks ago. 

Tomorrow I’ll give them a light gloss coat, black-lining wash and then varnish and base them.

It’s just as well that I’m coming out of that painting rut as this arrived yesterday:

What’s that? You don’t seriously think I’m planning to paint a cardboard box, do you? I mean, I know I’ve done some daft painting projects, but that would just be too silly. No, no, no – it’s the contents of the box which will be joining the painting queue.

Lots of goodies!

Everything apart from the freebie sample sprue

That’s a hefty chunk of resin to clean up and paint.

Yes, my “Block wars” wave 2 pre-order has been delivered. With the CitiDef packs, I’m going to have to try to remember the paint scheme I did for the original packs.
