Progress has been slow to say the least, as the Air Conditioning went out in the house two weeks ago now. So it's been way to hot to work on anything that would involve paint, and I really don't have any comfortable hobby setup at the apartment I'm renting for at work. But this weekend I was able to get the temps in the house to an alright point, and worked on my Salamanders Tactical Squads for my 1,500 point army. I was able to get the decals placed on the shoulder pads yesterday, and worked on painting some special weapons for the Tactical Squads. Then today waiting for the laundry to finish I put together the Marines with their Bolters & Flamers.
Now for what still needs to happen to them: Clean up some details on the ends of the Bolters since I had just cut them off the barrel end of the sprues. Need to seal the decals on the shoulder pads with gloss and then give them a shot of matte. Finish the ends of the two flamers & one Multi-Melta to make them look like the others that I've already completed. Work on the Dark Arts Lava Bases finally, I've been dragging my feet on them as I was wanting to use the airbrush to see if it went faster. And put the backpacks on the guys to round out this stage of the Tactical Squads. I will come back and work on highlights on them after I get back from the Geek Nation Tour to England & the UK Games Day coming up.
