Hi there,
Yet again, a long time between updates... Past weekends have been quite busy, which means that I've had very little time to try and work out what's wrong with the airbrush.

I worked out the problem! The paint was too thick.

It was that simple. I made the assumption that the paint would be the same as before. I previously used the airbrush back in September (before I packed my apartment before moving). The 200 ml bottle of Vallejo white undercoat must of thickened slightly. With my airbrush being a siphon-type, the paint needs to be a little bit thinner than for gravity-fed ones.

I feel like an idiot, in not realising this earlier.

So, I managed to get out the airbrush, and white undercoat some figures. I've also painted the base coats on all of them, and a wash (since I took the photo's I've managed to get some painting time in).,   I'm still trying to work out just how much of the detail on them that I'm going to paint. There is quite a substantial amount of detail on these, but they are quite small (the grid in the images in 1 cm^2). Any, and all advice in that respect is most welcome.

7 bases down, 11 bases to go

Whilst I have a lot of bases-worth of figures glued down for painting - I also have a substantial number more, which are in various stages of being stripped. Whilst it would be good to try and finish painting all of them, I think it may be a better idea to just get the number of bases I need for a Hordes of the Things army done only. That would mean that this would be my very first completed army for anything, which I have painted to completion.

A major achievement.

Any, and all criticism and advice is welcome. Hopefully I'll get around to doing another post sooner.
