Picked up the Vivio model from Hobby Link Junction, where it was on sale for 60% off; didn't think it was worth what they originally wanted for it, but it was worth what I ended up payin'. Also got a Mio, who will probably figure in the next one of these pics I finish.

The purple-based lootas on the left... man, I've been working on those guys for months! The detail on the models is crazy, and honestly I didn't really do them justice for close-up shots. But I picked up a few tips at the friendly local gaming store and I'm confident that the next few ought to come along faster and much nicer. I'm getting a little better at it and that's helping my enthusiasm level when it comes to working on more models.

I -am- glad that I did them relatively early, though, because lootas are one of the better ork units, and these boys will be seeing action pretty much every time I play. And I can always go back and add some extra highlights if, some time in the far future, I run out of models to work on.

Next up: deffkoptas! (Mostly because a friend of mine finds the idea of one-ork helicopters bashed together out of junk to be hilarious, but I don't mind - they ought to be fun to paint.)

Watched the first three eps of Madoka Magica, and it deserves its own post. Shinbo, you're a bastard, but you're a magnificent bastard; let's see if you can pull this one off.
