6 in 24

I managed five models today! That is probably an unrealistic pace for the rest of the week. My normal goal is four models a day and to paint at least four days a week - the great coats tend to speed up the process so we'll see how it goes...

 
Damn! Speaking of great coats, I just realized I forgot the third highlight on guys wearing the gray coats! I generally don't bother with the third highlight on small items, like a rolled up great coat, so I skipped the third color! Well, I'll remedy that tomorrow in addition to anything else I get done.

  1. Nice work Clarence, six models is a 'cracking' pace, but coming from a painting sluggard like me maybe not such a compliment. The result is what counts not the blogging braggadocio that some seem to get into with the numbers of figures painted and how quickly they did them.

    A good job is a job well done if you get my drift - and I like what you've done thus far. Besides, what's the hurry? There's always more figures to paint!

    Cheers,
    Doc

  3. Heh, you're right, Doc. In this case, however, speed is of the essence because I am hosting a game in a couple of weeks and I need these buggers to finish off the last brigade.

    I also have a s**t-load of models (not an actual historical level of organization)to paint for Historicon. In any case, my painting style is the same whether I paint one model or five models at a time. Some characters may get a little more detail, but for the most part I paint to turn out armies and more often than not, I paint two armies for any period I wade into!
