This is looking damn good Carlos!
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Thanks guys! I feel the drive to wrap this one up increasing daily... more progress, more urge...

I know the feeling all to well. The danger here is getting in a hurry to get it wrapped up. Keep the progress slow and steady. It'll get there bud.

I hear ya Joe. I’m picking up the pace compared to how it was over the past few months, but still focused on my end goal.

Good point, you are absolutely right!

For me there is like this very thin and fine line between to hurry to get a build done or then the build ends on the shelf of doom.
I really need to stay on the line, focused, which does not always succeed. :bag:

I was able to get several hours in at the bench today. I swear that I spent more time selecting and stirring paints than I did actual drybrushing.

Here are the results

One last bit of detail painting to add, then I can begin final weathering.

Looking better all the time!
