Progress again.

Finished all three of the "counts as" poster board drop pods.  Just bases and uprights with the bottom part of the door and lots of hot glue.  Workable with the right height and base.  The uprights (and base for that matter) are a bit "off", but if I built a circle with five notches I could straighten the top out.  Then adding in the top part of the doors, cover any misc holes with putty or paper and I think I could turn them in to decent homegrown models with a bit of paint.

Pulled out the GW pod, used it to check dimensions and then put it back up.  Didn't feel like doing magnet work yet, I want to paint some.

On to painting.  Did a quick diversion, painted the faces of the Neophytes since I was short on time today.  Also did my "counts as" EC's face (the SGT from AoBR) since he is going to double as my test dummy for washes and I'm hoping to have the "real" EC ready to go, although he is going to be last (since I want to try some magnet work on the GW pod and last DN.

Pulled the red out for lots of red painting goodness.  Another meeting tonight, maybe I can start on the red, but I'm hoping for a clear day tomorrow for a few straight hours of painting.

Pictures I'll try to have by the end of the week.

Oh, the glasses make it much better.

"Oh, the glasses make it much better."

That makes me happy to hear. Painting is hard enough as it is, without adding eye soreness to the problem!

Especially since I'm so used to ignoring pain that I don't stop when a little rest would fix the problem...
