On what will be my last real chance to play before Apocalypse commences, further progress has been made. The figures are not pretty.... but they're playable.

| The Havocs and their ride, all based and shaded. |
Yesterday evening I have the figures a coat of paint on their bases - Mephiston Red for the texture, Rhinox Hide for the trim. The actual basing material is a mixture of fine cork dust along with some chunkier bits to vary it up.
 |
| The Autocannon-wielding chap, the only heavy weapon I couldn't now play a Horus Heresy-legal unit of. |
Today meanwhile it was shading: Druchii Violet to the pink & purple, Dark Tone Quickshade to the metals. A watered down Rhinox hide was used on the yellow to try and preserve the shade I'd needed so many coats to achieve.
 |
| Closer detail on the wheels. |
Obviously I don't have dry-brushing or transfers done but I reckon with a spray of varnish tomorrow, these guys will be acceptable to throw on the table - and allow me a chunk more heavy support on the table when I go up against the Tau/Sisters/Marines mish-mash I expect to face on Friday.

| Flakk missiles - expensive but one of my few anti-aircraft choices. |
Dave has been doing some more work himself, so I'll be encountering some new sisters in my end of week escapades.
