Indeed, I’m still working on batch two. These Wracks take freaking ages to paint – so many different textures. This is the other side of Citadel Miniatures getting more and more detailed – painting takes longer and longer, too. These models are close to being finished though. I need to refine the skin and touch up any inperfections, et voila.
Did you have had models that looked easy to paint in the beginning, but took longer than expected?

He transitioned from Lego to Games Workshop models at the tender age of 11 and didn't look back ever since. He is known for bold colour schemes and sharp edge highlights, which he paints with typical German perfectionism (one of the reason he is such a notoriously slow painter).
Everything looks easy to paint! My boy had the same problems with the centurions as well.
Very nice work as always Stahly; your miniatures always look so clean and sharp. Space Marine Centurions are very deceptive – from the front they look simple enough, with bulky armour and lots of flat surfaces, but the back is a different story; plenty of overlapping mechanical detail, cables and pipes. You have to be quite selective about how you assemble them in order to reach all of the detail!
