Day 17, Thursday 6th November, Day of Irony
Well, you gotta love the irony of Life. As mentioned, I'm down with some bug I picked up from my GF last weekend (visited her on the way to camp). However, simple flu bugs like this send my doctors reeling in panic that they might trigger larger problems with all my medical obscurities. Thus, today, I've been "doped up to rattling point" (referring to the number of pills rattling inside me) to hopefully prevent anything major. The irony is that by taking all this preventative stuff, I'm not allowed out & actually feel worse for 48 hours. Go figure.....
So, not much is being done I'm afraid. Similarly, I guess I should mention, that whilst I sincerely hope it doesnt happen, if something does go "mammaries vertical", I may be doing a dissapearing act once again for a while & the project will go on hold.
Anyway, I have a couple of pics of my infantry tests. One has been given an extra drybrush (if that phrase can ever be used with the new, super thin, citadel paints!) of Desert Yellow. I'm doing my first company without the extra highlight, but may use it on the command company when I get to it. These infantry are being done fast and so are not particularly neat, but they'll do until I get time to upgrade if I really want to at some later stage.
Anyway, let me know what you think as I havent done much on the rest yet (1st coat on 6 stands) and can easily change the system!
Other than these, I recieved a second warhound from Fanatic yesterday. This time I'm very lucky & get to keep it in my own collections so have set to it with my mini-drill's grinding block & removed the carapace eagle. This actually took quite a long time & work will continue in amongst this project. It wont be painted at quite the rate of the rest of the force! ?
