I have two weeks remaining until the tournament. Here’s what remains to be done.
- Finish Deathrains. The flats are done. Either tomorrow or Tuesday, I’ll start on the detail work, which should only take an hour or so per suit. Edge highlighting, lenses, some dry brushing, and then painting the base.
- Finish Piranhas. I finished the flats on these this morning, save for the pilots, who just need some minor work. Then they too move to the detail stage. They have the extra step of having the pilots (or at least their upper halves) glued in place.
- Assemble Devilfishes. My two Devilfishes shipped on Friday, so I should have them no later than the 12th. I’ll have them assembled that night. I do need to pick up some fresh glue, which I’ll probably do tomorrow on my lunch break – thank God for gaming shops a few blocks from my workplace.
- Get in practice games. I need to test my list against some other armies. Fortunately, I can run them against Dennis’s Eldar and Richard’s Orks, both of whom are going to the tourney as well. It’ll help me see if there are any weak spots.
- Make any final changes to the list. There are a couple of minor changes that I’m contemplating thanks to the feedback the list has been getting from various sources. I’m holding off until the practice games, but I’ll have a couple of alternate models (mostly different drones and vehicle weapon layouts) ready just in case.
I think I can get that done in two weeks, no sweat.
