I took advantage of some extra free time during the New Year’s weekend to stay on top of my painting. First up for 2010 is a trio of Deathrain crisis suits. I’ve had these particular minis primed for over a year now, so they’re long overdue to get some color. So far, I have them basecoated in Knarloc Green, with the team leader having a splash of Mechrite Red as well. Next up is doing the flats, which will mostly be a coat of Goblin Green. I’m hoping I can have these guys knocked out in a week or so. After that, I have a Helios HQ/Team Leader suit that’s basecoated and ready for more work, and after that, I’m not sure what I’ll be painting next. I might switch things up and start working on my Berzerkers.

(As a side note, re-examining these guys makes me wince a bit when I see how many mold-lines I left, especially on the missile pods and shoulders. When I assembled these, I was less experienced and not as attentive when it came to pre-painting clean-up. Oh, well; live and learn!)
