Okay...

...what should I paint, a regular trooper? I need to know ASAP because I\'m going into town tomorrow which will be the only chance to get the mini.

Cheers

Your Mission: Paint a quality Vostroyan trooper in a week.

Your Motive: Make up for those who couldn\'t make it.

Your Motive #2: Make it better than the raido operator :bouncy:

Not had a very productive day today, the headache progressed into a full blown migrane so most of today was spent feeling very much like death warmed up :( :possessed:

However I have made a bit more progress, shots below are not brilliant but I think you can see the progress made and what is left to do :D black areas need highlighting, gold and stelel have more work to be done as does the face of the one guy and yes I still have a grenade to do as well :D

Hopefully I will have these guys finished tomorrow so I can carry on with the other bits. I haven\'t shown the cannon as I couldn\'t be bothered to shoot it but it is not far off finished :D

Both have a piece of 1.6mm welding rod stuck in the butt so I can attach them to corks for painting :D They tell me it\'s not painful so long as I am careful when I insert the wire but I shall take their word for it as it is not something I wish to try personally :D

I think youve went a bit to far on the poor little fella though! Cos its sticking out of his fruit pastel head! lol
But nice work though, especially on the reds.

Bill, a regular trooper is what we need, just pick any old trooper so long as it is a vostroyan it will be fine :D
Well, today was the day and I couldn\'t make it into town :( Sorry to let you down like this, but that was my last chance of getting the mini. Add to the equation my zero black primer and there is no chance of me getting a trooper done. Sorry :~(

Bill, Don\'t worry about it . It was very good of you to offer in any case, and much appreciated. :)

I might have the opportunity to get two done in time for Gamesday which will cover us for any shortfall. (They are already primed and based.)

Even if we can\'t get them completed for an entry at Gameday then they will still be used for a Charity Auction, which after all is the main intent.

Oh well, guess it will be down to a last minute panic now between me and DR :D

Think I will have another Guinness before I scream and pull the rest of my hair out :D:beer::beer::beer::beer::drunk::drunk:

Not forgeting I still have troopers part painted, so I will see what happens between now and then :D

Well, I\'m glad it didn\'t matter so much :redface:

*wipes forehead and does that \"phew\" thing that people do in that sort of situation*

I\'m really looking forward to seeing a (mostly) completed squad at GD, keep up the good work comrades :yes:

Cheers

I would of loved to have helped out with the shortfall, but I am so far behind with my entry that i am considering having time off work.

Its a shame some peeps have had to pull out but the participation for this little project is still very impressive. The squad should look great and very unique.

I\'ll do it. If it means that each squad member is painted by a different person and saves time and trouble for other people I can pop into town on the way home tomorrow, get one and paint it up.

Thank you very much for the offer, but at the moment I think we\'ll just hold with what we\'ve got going.
If there are too many people adding in at the last moment it\'s going to get too confusing.
Many thanks all the same.
