Steel Phalanx Painting Challenge: Day Two - I've Given Myself 'Airbrush-Thumb'

Well day two of the challenge, and it's been pretty productive. Still no sign of the base for the Rebot, but aside from that I think I stand a good chance of finishing! Famous last words...

Today has been all about the purple (more like lilac).

Suffice to say, I've given myself a newly invented condition of Airbrush-Thumb. Painters RSI.

Here's the frankly ridiculous sequence of layers you can (or can't...) see in the photo above:

Full coat of GW Naggaroth Night
Generous highlight of GW Xereus Purple
Highlight of 2:1 mix of GW Xereus Purple and GW Genestealer Purple
Highlight of GW Genestealer Purple
Highlight of 1:1 mix of GW Genestealer Purple and GW Slaanesh Grey
Final highlight of GW Slaanesh Grey
Post-shade touch up of GW Naggaroth Night to re-emphasise the darkest shadows

Eighteen models done in a day.

Next: Final shading with pin washes and blocking in other colours
