Update, therefore hapiness

Well it's been far too long since my last update; nine months is an awful long hiatus in blogging. Though in that time there has been hobbying, however it was around organising a wedding and honeymoon (which were bigger priorities). In that time there has been painting, with more Ariadna being worked on. This is the start of a TAK force, though some of the models I've had for quite some time. There's also some USAriadna I'd originally bought to do a test paint scheme for my Colonial Marines, however I repainted them. 

Not shown here is the Heavy Gear Fleet Scale. It was an impulse purchase circa 2013 that's been gathering dust in to-paint pile. That will be the next update (hopefully soon).

MRRF - Para commando + Warcor

I was kinda intrigued as to how long it takes me to paint something. My usual set up is to have something on in the background (something on the tv or youtube), and then paint by colour / layers. This does become pretty inefficient at times, if I'm watching something interesting. I ended up setting a timer, and stopping it when I stepped away from the painting desk.

I forgot to start it again for the final colours, so it ended up taking about 1.5 hours. I already had a painted base, so that also took about 10 minutes off the overall time as well.
