It's funny that when I assign myself something to paint, I paint, but not what I assigned myself.  Just the same way I used to read different books than the ones I was assigned by my teachers.  The funny thing is that I have been working on the assignment I intended to give myself in 3 weeks.  I did the three buildings though I chose to paint walls.  Unfortunately, I ran out of the paint that I use for my desert walls. :( So my walls are tan on the front and still white on the back.  So I guess I'm going to go pick up some Trail Tan tomorrow.

So, there's a 4 mini set that's supposed to represent the biggest bad-asses of a Marine Chapter.  The minis are quite nice and I've already painted one but I want to get the others done eventually.  I was planning on doing one in a few weeks but I felt the need to work on one now instead of the bikes.  So I did...

This is the best picture I got of it.  That's pathetic.  I've taken mini pics before and gotten better results but no this time.  So maybe I better find a better way to take them.  Something to work on between now and next week.

I wish you could see all the detail.  It's not the best mini I've ever painted, but it's not bad at all and I did a few things and used a few colors I never use.  I'm happy with the results. 

So, my goal for the coming week is to paint 2 land speeders and and 3 buildings of some kind.  More than likely I'll finish off the walls I started and couldn't finish.  I hope to, in the next few weeks, do this and report that not only did I do the job assigned, but I actually went beyond and accomplished more.  But for now the stated goal will have to do, I guess.
