I forget if you explained this before but I'll ask anyway.

Do you hold each component as you paint it or blu-tac/pin it to something to avoid transferring skin oils?

Beautiful work, Knightley! I really love the pose with the pointing finger. The reds and whites on the tabard are very nice, too.

Dying's the easy way out. You won't catch me dying. They'll have to kill me before I die!

Looking great man, this squad looks much more 'action shot' than the others I think.

Yeah the pose'ability of the new GK terminators does lead to a much more action based look
