Catching Up With The Arkab Legion

Now as mentioned in previous posts I had run out of the Callejo Tan Earth that I was using for the basing. After a misship earlier this month which got me a few bottles of Vallejo Tan Earth but was the Glaze instead of the Paint. So a quick reorder and I now have the right bottles to get caught up. 4 Skulkers, 4 Pegasus, 4 Drillsons, and 4 Harassers are all now based and completed. 2 each of Grasshoppers, Wolverines, Commandos, and Locusts are almost completely based as all the rain and snow the last few weeks has meant I couldn't gather any of the twigs I've been using for the mech basing.

I also have started on two Galleon tanks and two Shadowhawks have their base coats with the rest of their paintjob to come later this week. I'm hoping to get the twigs I need to finish all the mech basing by the end of this week. This should get me in good standing with the rest of the queue line with the 4 Warrior VTOLs, support vehicles, and 15 Heavy and Assault mechs for my Lyran Regular force to go.

So that is where I am at for now and hopefully we'll have a new update at the end of the week. Thank's for stopping by and I'll see you all next time!

Scouting For The Arkab

Alright, the four Packrats are on the block this go around. I had received a package and thought I'd be able to get the basing caught up but upon opening it, I found bottles of Vallejo Tan Glaze instead of Tan Earth Paint. So a quick follow up and I've got the paint coming to me now and should have it early next week. Following the normal routine, the platoon of Packrats got the base layer of Vallejo Dark Sand.

After that was the Vallejo Bronze Green and Cavalry Brown for the camo as well as the Gunmetal Grey for the weapons and a few other small details.

Last step was the Vallejo Black on the tires and the Citadel Nuln Oil wash.

So at this point the Packrats go into the still need to finish the basing when the right paint arrives queue that is starting to get a bit deeper than I had hoped it would. At this point what is left to paint out of the Kickstarter to paint is a pair of Shadowhawks, pair of Galleons, two bases of Savannah Masters, four Warrior VTOLs, three each of Long Tom, MASH, and HQ vehicles, and then lastly 15 heavy and assault mechs that will be going into my Lyran Regular force. Considering how much was in the Kickstarter, I feel like I've made amazing progress in roughly two months. So that is all for now and I'll see you all next time!
