Shadowseer attempt #1 concluded with me spraying the mini with oven cleaner. Take 2 will commence shortly!
In the interim, I decided an easier job was required to ensure I kept up some momentum. Hence I decided to punch out half a Guardian Defender squad.
7.5 hours all up including prep and clean time for brushes / air brush. Since I generally don’t have time to sit and paint for long periods, this means the actual painting time here is probably close to 6 hours. The blue is alot lighter than the first squad I did several (read many) years ago. I also left the shoulders white, I figured this would help in terms of squad identification. The eyes I butchered – too much drying retarder in the yellow paint, and a bit too think, thus it ran out of the socket in some of them. Could have cleaned that up – but hey, its a basic troop squad, so good enough!
