>both wings painted, along with both scything talons - pics will be up later, once my battery is charged. and now that i spent 45 minutes mixing a baby food jar full of Hormagaunt Purple (took a while to get it just right), i can start painting the harpy herself. just realized, she needs a name too...<

>well, thanks to the generosity and overall awesomeness of our good friend Rad in giving me all his paints along with the models i bought off of him, i have no need of Leviathan Purple ink - one quarter bottle of Baal Red + three-quarters bottle of Asurmen Blue = 1 full bottle of Leviathan Purple! in other words, the Harpy is drying now, and pics will be up in a few hours. hopefully they'll be better than the last two, but as it's storming here (and doesn't look like it'll be stopping any time this week), the daylight is in short supply. time will tell.<
>P.S. camera battery is charging.<
