I thought I should show everyone my progress since I got really frustrated tonight with my lack of progress.

Maybe some of you share the same problem. I set out to "finish the rhino, then paint the next three space marines". But then I get sucked into an abyss of "oh, since I already have RED paint out I'll paint all the lenses on these other 30 space marines". Then it's something like "well I might as well paint gemstones on these models over here since I have the purple paint out. In this manner I I found myself later this week with nothing finished. It's very hard to concentrate on one model kit it seems. I just want to play the darn game with some nice models I'm happy with, I guess I have too little patience at the moment and too much perfectionist dilly dally.

Anyways I'm learning a butt load of do's and don'ts. Luckily the 1st time we paint a squad the process get much quicker, easier, and nicer-looking.
