Well, its been a while

but I finished all of the Gaels I had, and have done a unit of Sidhe archers. (Still have some more Sidhe warriors to do).
Am still impressed by how much quicker Army Painter lets me get a unit done. I just need to concentrate on a clean & tidy base coat (what i-Kore always referred to as Block Painting), then AP does the rest.
Will try and post some pics later. One thing I found, was that the Army Painter matt varnish seems to have "crackled" on some of the Gael models. Seems to have been due to doing it in a shed during the freeze we had recently. (Will get a close up pic of that as a warning to others).
The models aren't "ruined" - not enough to need stripping and starting over, and when they're in the middle of a unit they shouldn't stand out too badly.
Lesson learnt - next time I've got to varnish, bring the can indoors a few days before and let it get to a good temperature.
