    So... I reprimed models and wanted to preshade them when I found out that I left paints at home :D

    Then I realised that I am sitting on about third of all my spare bits that are not from big dinos and I decided to do what I should have done months ago. Astrolith bearer cnversion from start collecting :)

    I need to get additional bits from home, but what do you guys think so far?

    I wanted to do it "default way" (meaning same way as in "how to get most of SC" thread), but I need all my drums, so original idea it is:

    Also, I have my paints at work, so today is gonna be a good day :)

    Thank you :) I bet on nobody looking too close :D
    I had to wipe dust on shelves today, so I at least took badly lit photo of collection so far. About 5 months of painting at one place :)

    Work continues. Both Astrolith and first five warriors are finished.

    And I also primed second batch of five warriors.

    Thank you both, I am really glad for speedpaint solution, otherwise it would have taken me at least same time period, but with 1-2 hours of painting every day :)

    Nice astrolith! I appreciate how well you painted those feathers.

    And of course I am always a fan of green-painted saurus warriors too :D

    Thank you, that is why I love speedpaints, it makes transitions really effortless.

    If you like green warriors, then you are in for a ride, because there will be 30 of them :D ... yup, my blog is going to get really repetitive soon :D

    Thanks, that is because paint scheme is really basic. No shenanigans, just single coat and move on.
    I really hope that composition is correct for AOS, each group of 5 there is drummer and banner. Could somebody confirm that? :)

    That is correct by the book at least, and I don't think that is something that is usually adjusted.
    I also love the colour scheme, really nicely done.

    I bloody hope not, because I am not keeping track of which paints I mixed in case I need more :D
    Thank you.

    Third unit finished. Again, nothing fancy, just tabletop to get those old cold ones ready :)

    I finished priming second unit of warriors when I realized that I might need Alpha if I decide to run them as separate unit. So I quickly bashed one from parts at hand and primed him as well. Work was still loading on PC, so I wanted to at least prepare tools for lunchbreak... I looked for my drybrush and couldnĀ“t find it, so in half a hour I basically cleaned and reorganized my whole cubicle looking for it. :D

    Of course it was in brush holder, it just fell a bit down and between longer brushes :D

    Here is progress photo and on-topic brush holder from workshop spare parts.
