bzarcherAfter some lowbie action in CoH, Alex and I went out to run some errands, and settle in for the NFC wildcards.
As we watched, because the Seahawks couldn't understand "CATCH THE FUCKING BALL!", I got a little bored, and decided to go ahead and paint more of my Dark Angels.
Now...almost all of it is done.
Painted before tonight:
Dreadnaught
Partial Devastator Squad (Sargeant + 1 Missile Launcher marine, Lascannon marine, Plasma Cannon marine, Heavy Bolter marine.)
Assault Squad
Deathwing Squad w/ 2 special weapons units. (Cyclone Launcher Terminator and Assault Cannon Terminator.)
3 Tactical Sargeants.
Painted tonight:
Remainder of Devastators (3 tactical marines, 2 with pistol and CCW)
18 Tactical Marines (16 w/ Bolters, 2 with flamers.)
Land Speeder Tornado (I'd have made it a Ravenwing, but the original owner'd basecoated it in DA green and decaled it.)
To-do list:
2 Ravenwing Land Speeders (Basecoated already.)
Ravenwing bike (basecoated)
Ravenwing bike w/ Vet. Sargeant. (Basecoated)
Ravenwing Attack bike (Basecoated)
Predator Destructor (Basecoated)
Commander Azreal (Mostly done, just needs touched up/cleaned up.)
-Azreal's Helmet bearer (Watcher is mostly done, helmet is not.)
Those tactical marines just killed my hands, tho. Oh, god...
And then I get to buy transfers and Standards for them all...

Do feel free to make them cool. (Mine is/was lead by the DooM Marine :D

As you know,w hen holding a miniature, you're only using your index and middle finger, causing cramps/pain in the ring and pinky fingers. Hold a closed paint bottle or something of that size in your ring/pinky fingers. I can't explain why, but having the resistance, and something keeping them from curling up so tight makes a world of difference.
