Well, I've already managed to knock one (1) goal off my
New Year's resolution list. Sure, it was low hanging fruit - a handful of the ubiquitous Dark Angel terminators from the Dark Vengeance box set. But, hey, celebrate the small victories, am I right? Am I right??
Ahem.
Well, anyway, I didn't even think to put these guys in a light box, so the pictures are . . . weak. But, here they are, to celebrate my first goal achieved:

| Post Minwax dip on the 4th! And a few hours of highlighting, today. |
I've had a lot of recent success with mixing ink, distilled water and matte medium. Frankly, that's what I ought to be using. But, I had bought a can of
Minwax Polyshades Tudor Satin and the stuff works just too well
not to use on quick and dirty projects like this. Check this out:

| The Magic of Minwax. It even makes your pictures less blurry! Seriously though, for bits like the studs, it really brings out the details. |
