Done about half of the DW Knights. I ended up breaking the glue in a few places to better paint them. I'm trying something new where I basically paint the legs and base first, then paint the inside of the chest and shield, then glue the torso to the legs and finish off the easy to reach places. It's working well. Also noticed that my wet blending has become much faster. I read something from a pro painter who talked about just getting stuff done and moving on to the next piece. I'm trying to work faster and not worry about every brush stroke as much.

Been remodeling the Unisystem to suit the current campaign's setting a bit better. Current house rules for magic are atrocious, since a fireball is actually weaker than a punch. Also found a simpler way to keep track of ammunition, which is good when your alcoholic Kermit the Frog character stocks up on too many SMG clips.

Also trying to set up a dreadnought-only 40k campaign. Thought it would be cool to have a planet where old Horus Heresy dreadnoughts were entombed from both sides, and then have them reawaken centuries later. Armies would be primarily dreads, but with one or two "visiting" units for auxiliaries.

I was going to prime a bunch of stuff due to the temperature being much more mild than the past several weeks, but it was too damn windy all day. So I guess I'll work on some more Dark Angels stuff that's already primed.

Finished painting, base texturing and painting base rims for the infantry from OGRE Miniatures Set 1. All that remain are the vehicles and the OGRE, all of which should be pretty quick based on previous smaller scaled vehicle projects.

EDIT: Also play 750 pts of 40k today. My buddy's Death Guard versus my GSC. He killed my Patriarch the turn after he came in from ambush. Used Smite to blow him up completely for 6 mortal wounds. Ouch!

Are you referring to OGRE as in the Steve Jackson game about the giant robotic super-tank? If so, I'm curious as to if that game is any good.

As for what I'm doing today, probably just more work on my Knight.
