I'm slow, I know...

I am not the slowest painter in the world, but I'm probably in the top ten.
The problem is more that I don't seem to find the time to paint. I've bee working on my first ten hounds for what seems like ages now.
Today I finally finished the hounds. I have a problem deciding if I should paint the "rash" on some of the hounds black like chaos armour or just use a wash to make the cracks in the skin stand out more. I will decide what to do tomorrow when the light improves and the wash is fully dried (so that I can compare the two alternatives). No matter what I decide, all 10 hounds will be done by tomorrow night. Then I can finally start on the next 10. Hopefully they don't take as long as the first batch, as there are 24 chaos warriors and 3 knights waiting to be painted. Also there are the usual lot of 40K figures waiting for completion...

Missing pictures should follow soon, as I bought myself a new camera. At the moment I am trying to learn the ropes, and I think I'll get the hang of it in a while. I take a lot of pics of the dogs, especially the little one. I haven't studied the results yet, but my wife seem to think there are some nice pictures among them so there is hope...

I'm still working out of my portable workstation in the livingroom, as I don't want to leave my wife alone with the dogs for too long as the young one is quite a handful. Still, I think my wife is much better with the puppy than me. I try to help out though...

Time to go to bed now, and hopefully the morning wiull bring some clear skies and lots of light for me to work in thoughout the day and perhaps also in the late afternoon...
