More flyers to add to the Chapter's armoury. I still have a lot left to do (but relatively not much). I'm glad I've got a bit of my mojo back in regards to painting the marines again. I think this is in part to reading Dave Taylor's book which I received a little while ago after backing it on Kickstarter. Part of it is also because I've started playing Infinity, which, while not 40k, has gotten me painting miniatures again.
I have learned that I really need to focus on my painting though. It's too easy to start up a game on the PC in the background that I don't *feel* needs a lot of attention, but really it does (in this instance, Jurassic World Evolution). From now on, I'll try to just keep it to music so there are minimal distractions.
For the Chapter I still have at least 4 banners, 100 or so weapons, 4 land raiders, 1 vindicator and 1 razorback to paint. That of course assumes I don't see any bargains to pick up some extra vehicles for the armoury, which I'm usually on the look out for.
I also wanted to make a paint recommendation. Vallejo Metal Color paints are fantastic! So far I've just been applying them with a brush, but I love them. The range predominantly has a range of silvers, but that allows for a good range to blend / highlight / shade etc your metallics.
I'm not sure what I'm going to paint next. Probably some more Infinity models as there is an event I'm going to in about a month and I'd like to have a fully painted force to take.
