You hate blue?
Well, I'm doing my Japanese as pseudo-harlequins... I'm starting to hate every colour under the rainbow

.
Nice first couple of units. Keep them coming.
I'm getting very close to the half way point with my army, but it will not be based until the 'end point' as the second batch (the other half) will be mixed in with the first batch.

So does that means there is an errata to the effect... +1 in melee and shooting unless target wearing sunglasses
When I do my 28mm version, I'm going to try and copy the heijin scroll... Going to need to do some test shots on spare random figs to workout how to get the same finish first.

Possibly. I'm having a hard enough time painting the little buggers! I'm sure my opponents are going to suffer similar problems.
I am quoted as saying something similar about novels by Philip K. Dick: "If you understand what Philip K. Dick novels are about you must be taking the same stuff as he did when writing it". I'm hoping that my opponents will feel like they are on some kind of psychoactive substance

... not that I'm on psychoactive substances when painting, but I feel like it... lucky I'm not using oils

Just in time to give the horse meister a bloody nose tomorrow then Nigel. In truth though, bending his bumper at impact would be more than most of us have managed.
Hope you have a great time.
