these days I batch paint the models of a single squad... this has helped me keep everything uniform... I air Brush the base color then I build up with highlights .. the air brush gets this done so fast...this takes about 20 minutes and has does light direction better than hours with a brush... Prime I really think you should let me paint your Scaven if anyone nees something painted fast and clean I can get it done in no time... I am about to start my Kroot keep your eye on the Tau Alien Cadre hobby log... :D :D

Thanks for the offer, but I have some ideas of how I can get them done fast without needing an airbrush. I've been working on speed painting some bits and pieces and I think I am getting the hang of it.

You wouldn't like it though. Too much of the ol' Dev Mud for your tastes.

I've taken to making notes about how I painted a particular unit. It means when I come back six moths later to paint the rest, I've got a half-decent chance of having both units match. :) As opposed to the Heavy Gear army I painted and now need to repaint because I forgot which shade of green I painted everything. :x

If it were easier to get hold of, so would I. I can pick up DM at Yellow Submarine on my way home from work.

Thats not a bad idea. I have done it once or twice and it is usually very helpful. Especially since my memory is not so good.
