QuoteMatt, is it just me, or are you one of those annoying people who is still so young that your painting just gets better and better?  I have just been looking back at your earlier posts - the standard was amazing from the start, but your latest work is just out of this world.   I don't know whether to be inspired or discouraged.   Cry

I picked up my first Pendraken about 4 years ago and I hadn't painted anything really since I was a teenager so its taken a couple of years to really find my feet again (also a better camera helps  :)). I'm happy with the results now so some of my earlier stuff will get a revisit. What I'd like to do is keep the standard but get quicker.

and don't be discouraged painting models is really quite easy the more time you spend the better the results. At the end of the day it's just painting by numbers.

Haven't a clue, though it'll be years at least (or maybe never) before these models are used.

Yeah, but in my case they run to eight digits.  :(

If you're talking ships then it'll be the Heller Le Glorieux model converted to the Centurion. It's a bit down the line but definitely on the to do list.
