Progress

And here I am, just a few steps into my insane 30 days run. How am I doing? Could have been better...

Good news are that Gorman is finally done, You can see a rough photo of him on the left. I've painted him using only my right eye, as my left one doesn't see too well. Because of it I was forced to take a lot of shortcuts with this model so I incorporated overbrush and washes as my main techniques. I think that for an amount of attention I've put into him, Gorman worked out pretty well.

The Brass Balls Kodiak is finally assembled, primed and waiting for P3 metallics to arrive on tuesday(-ish). Untill then I need to fully paint my Juggernaut to finally get him out of my head. I'm not moving fast enough with him even though I have to... It's all because of my exams - History Of Polish Cinematography and Theory Of Television on, respectively, thursday and friday. I find it hard to divide my attention at this time of year...

My order for Karchev, Manhunter and Kell came through and I expect them soon - before saturday sun rises up I shall be gently touching His bold head and licking his rusted metal. Your boiler is so hot!

However, before enjoying that glorious moment, I need to DO the Juggernaut. I can't leave unfinished work ...well...unfinished... - I must be methodical in this particular case. With Jugger out of my head I'll have only two contest models to take care of, which should be in within my reach.

During the past few days, besides watching Deadwood (never seen a better drama about 'how the states were build'!), I got back to my old love - The Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3k for those unfamiliar with the series). Oh how I loved this when I was 16! And it still amuses me a lot, it didn't lose it's unique charm in any respect. MST3k is like a delusional dream or a future film critic's ultimate amusement (ie ME!). It's a shame that this show cannot be run on any non-english TV station, and only a small group of people has the opportunity to appreciate this truly outstanding show...

The music of the past few days was mainly Van Der Graaf Generator with the sparkling of The Legendary Pink Dots. And now I'm going nuts!
