Thanks  I went for a small, single bright point of light, and I think it turned out pretty well.
I bought star wars the old republic last weekend, and haven't painted anything this entire week. I feel bad (even though I seem to have painted more in the past month than some people have done in a year).
UPDATE THIS WEEKEND!

" It says in the rules that if there are no models from one side left on the table, then that side has lost. What it DOESN'T say is that I can't pick my opponent's models up and throw them on the floor, so if I'm losing the game, all I have to do is pick my opponents models up and throw them on the floor, and then I WIN! YAY! Woohoo. Loophole: FOUND! "

Just accepted a commission to paint about a company and a half of Alpha Legion marines.
I should be starting them this weekend, and I'll be re-purposing my blog to cover the painting of them
Should be fun!

First of the alpha legion! only ~149 more to go!
This one took me about 2 hours to finish, but a lot of that was deciding what colors to use where, and changing paints in the airbrush. Can probably knock it down to ~45 minutes once I get a method finalized that I like and go into assembly line mode!

I think purple for the bad guys weapons would look best. Good stuff otherwise!
Quick question in regards to Abrushing, what do you use to clean your gun between colors? Is there a AB thread with all this? thanks mate!

Very sorry for the lack of updates... this has been a crazy month. FINALLY able to get back to work more in earnest... look for another set of 10 finished by the end of this week, and hopefully another 10 by the end of the weekend!
(yes, they still need basing. Materials are on order, LGS was out of required basing supplies).
@Red Corsair - Depends what i'm doing. If I'm doing gradients, like on power swords, I often don't clean out my airbrush at all. If I'm going from a light blue to a dark blue, just spray out most of the light blue, then add dark blue directly in. If they mix, so what, they have to mix on the model anyway.
If I'm switching colors completely, usually I'll hit it with a rinse of hot water, followed by a spray through of airbrush cleaner.
edit - Just noticed I missed a handle on a power sword! GRRR!!!
Will have to fix it now!

Mmmm.. Not all that bad Horst. You might want to work a little on your details though, airbrushing might be nice for the large areas but you do need to get stuck in with your regular brush on the finer parts. And bronze? To each their own but the Legion runs with steel details. Not to be a stickler (of course I will! it's waht I do! ^^ ) but you don't paint your Aurora Chapter orange and pink eh?  Indigo and steel Horst, indigo and steel...

I have a little hobby-thread going in the P&M section. Some say it's the best blog on Dakka, some don't agree, most belive it would be better if I finished at least one project some time this century and not just kept starting new ones.
Check it out, you just might like it.

Had to cancel the Alpha Legion job... I feel really bad about it, but it turns out I just don't have the time to paint them all. School + work takes more time than I thought it would :(
ON the plus side... I painted up an abaddon model for MX as a thank-you for the thunderhawk (which is currently being painted slowly!)

Yeah I gotta say while the electro is not far off from scale that it did in fact end up bigger than I expected too.
I think it was a combination of all the.layering and the inner/outer walls throwing off my size calculations....
