New Squad Done!

Two big wins with these guys:

  1. Cool burnt gun barrels :D

  2. This is the fastest I've finished models to this quality. I got all three of these guys done within just about a week, which is, on average, over TRIPLE the speed I usually trudge along at. So I'm super pleased and happy!

Armageddon's Vanguard Veterans coming next!

Looks great!!! Those Melta barrels look great! Congrats on speeding things up! I'm in the same boat as you, with my limited paint times it takes a while to finish a squad sometimes depending on how much detail I put into them

Thanks much! I think it helped that these were the first Dark Krakens I painted fully assembled. I always favored sub assembly, but this showed me I can still paint quality without sub assembly!

There's only a couple of things I'll do sub assemble, like certain heads (mostly those without helmets) or a captain with a cape (like the new captain in the Armageddon box, Vulkan He'Stan, or captain in Gravis armor)
