I'm in trouble.  I just picked up 2 dozen microfighters and a Black Lion (2750) ;D

Okay, I'm going to try to get a lance of RWR stuff painted in time for the next game.

Woot! If you get them done in time, and let Rob know, he might be able to include them in the OpFor. Nothing beats shooting at your freshly painted mechs. :)

That reminds me that I've got quite a few stands of micro-fighters based and base-coated. Wouldn't take much to get them finished, considering the size. I need to knock some of those out right away. I'd like to buy some more minis soon, so I need to get my numbers up.

So far, I'm at 13 finished in 8 weeks. I really want to keep the pace up around 2/week, but I think the key thing for me is just putting a brush on a mini every day. That's where I'm glad to also have the LotR minis to paint, since I'll be going for 'tabletop' quality on those where I've got lots to paint (such as Moria Goblins and Men of Gondor). Even if I end up painting only 1/week that is a huge improvement over what I was doing, which consisted of occasional base-coating followed by "now what?" I should have that Quasit finished up tonight, only need to rework the cockpit and base.

Also, want to thank the new guy that dropped my Shadow Hawk at the last game (sorry, don't remember the name). I was really unhappy with where that paint-job was at, and had been avoiding trying to fix it, so once it was in pieces it was an easy decision to drop it into the Simple Green.  ;)
