Tuesday night I get a phonecall from my podcasting buddy Conrad asking me if I am free to paint a model for Salute, which was in four days time! Not one to shirk from a challenge I decided to partake.
We had three new releases to paint, a Cryx Scavenger, the Ragman mercenary solo and a Menoth Flameguard Cleanser. I got the Ragman (Nick was also joining in the fun and is a good painter of white, Cryx is my chosen faction so I didn't want to spoil the fun of painting a scavenger for myself).
With such a short deadline (bearing in mind I have a job and was taking my partner out for the day for her birthday) I had a very small window of paint opportunity.
Three hours of frenzied painting later, this was the result:
Not the best work ever, but I had so little time I felt I did a reasonable job.
Hopefully I will be getting my own Ragman soon enough, so will get a second shot at the model.
Till next time...
