The 500: Day 6

Dec 07, 2014 09:25

Yours truly faking painting. 

Note the beverage of the gods.

Microtank Factory No rest for the impulse control challenged -- managed another 4 hours of work yesterday before starting the Independence Day celebrations. Only three more years to the big one hundred years party.

Managed to paint camo on all the BAOR vehicles and other small details such as machineguns before sending them off to the wash. I'll do the tracks next, a little drybrush and then they're pretty much done.

Working with batches this size is deceptive, because everything adds up so quickly. You spend 10 seconds picking each one up to check something and BANG, you've just spent 20 minutes.

I mounted part of the tanks on sticks for painting, but it's really not an ideal solution because the blutac tends to hide part of the tracks. Since they are hollow, maybe I should prepare mounting sticks with studs?

Microtank Factory The 15mm infantry is next in line, I hope to get some real progress with that today.

Figures remaining: 487

Total pledges: 10 GBP

P.S. Watched the best Icelandic movie in the whole wide world with the family last night. You should too, it really is good.
