    I appreciate your kind words :)
    We'll just have to see if I can live up to them this time around.

    But if nothing else, we will have had another painting comp. and that's enough for me - part of the fun is to see what everyone else has come up with, and see where others are in their painting journey (which is quite far, the level of painting is high, at least compared to the average miniature I see).

    It's time for my entry.
    This time not an addition to my Order Daemons, but instead a part touch up, and part repainting of my old Slann from my Xlanzec army.
    So behold the highest (and possibly only) ranking Slann of Xlanzec:

    Xlanaxqu Protector of the Southern Sentinels

    I can relate, it's just never as quick or easy as you expect and it's not quite as good as you'd like (at least that's how I always feel), but alas a picture must be taken for a commitment was made
    As I've taken your "maybe" to mean "yes" :p

    Subbed out my previous lights for a better light source, the big one in the sky (thank you Chotec).

    For once I'm delivering on a painting promise! (and it isn't even a Chaos Dwarf) oh my! :eek:

    And your confidence bears fruit!

    Thanks guys. I was happy to get if finished and photographed before I hit my 85k post (17X Slannhood) and its associated customary forum hiatus.
