Here are the 3 Plasmagun Troopers prior to getting their dip. While taking a photo of my Vendetta in progress, I ended up catching these guys in the background. I now decided to go back to the вЂThe Army PainterвЂ™ brand. Also when I started this army, I used вЂThe Army PainterвЂ™ вЂњStrong ToneвЂќ dip, half way through I had switched to Polyshades due to price. All looked good when they dried and I then continued on each model. I then proceeded with the basecoat of the models. It was time to dig out the cans from years agoвЂ¦вЂ¦ I tested the spray on a junk sprue, and sure enough it still worked. This is where I was worried, I originally started painting this army over three years ago and I used вЂThe Army PainterвЂ™ вЂњDesert YellowвЂќ spray for my basecoat. After assembling the model it was time to spray the base coat on the models. The other day I went digging through my IM bitz box and dug out the pieces needed. I figure IвЂ™d paint up 3 more Plasmagun troopers in case I want to swap some of the Meltaguns out. I currently have 4 Veteran Squads, 2 armed with 3 Meltaguns and 2 armed with 3 Plasmaguns. With 6th edition, it seems like Plasmaguns are the way to go. I am currently working on a Vendetta also for my Imperial Guard army, but thought IвЂ™d also add some specialist weapons to my army. Since I am going to be heading out of town tomorrow for a few days, I wanted to make sure and get something done. Well I could not get back into Warhammer 40K and not have anything painted for the month of January.
