Another 4 hours or so working. I finished the men-at-arms, there'll be a photo-shoot tonight and pictures up tomorrow.

I decided to clean out the modern micro armor box, prepped my BAOR vehicles and found another bag of M113 variants (zippos this time). That came to a total of 82 AFVs, plus an armored train engine which I decided to paint mostly so it wouldn't be feel all alone and abandoned in the big empty box.

I'm not actually sure painting micro armor is all that much faster than painting 15mm infantry. The thing with the vehicles is that they essentially need to be undercoated twice, which in practice means priming them takes two days -- it's way too cold to prime outside and I really don't want to work in solvent fumes. As this project proves, I have far too few braincells still functional as it is.

Finished off the evening watching a couple more episodes of Zeta Gundam. Only two more episodes left and quite a number of the main cast are still alive. I'm eagerly anticipating the coming bloodbath. In Zeta, basically everyone dies or worse. It's my second most favorite Gundam series.

I'm having a dance class tonight with the wife, so I doubt I'll get much else done besides finishing priming the tanks.

That puts me at a little over 200 figures primed and ready to paint. And the realization dawns on me that that's still under half what I need to do... at least I now have enough basically green models to fire up the airbrush.

Figures remaining: 487

Total pledges: 10 GBP
