I was having no end of troubles with my photography equipment today and I\’m still not really sure what was going on.

It looked like there was a film or something over the front of my lens – or there was too much light or some such, but with good olde photoshop I managed to get  something workable!

I\’ve been trying to tie up smaller, loose ends before the end of the year. This particular unit of Space Marines was one of them! I believe they are from a starter box-set circa 1993. Originally given to my husband, by his eldest brother, when he was a young lad himself. They got put into our legendary bits box and I reclaimed them for my Space Marine Battle Company when I only had a tactical squad slot left!

They were also a great few models to use to get the painting bug back – they\’re old so I wouldn\’t feel guilty if I \’messed up\’ – I\’m actually pretty pleased with how they turned out and are some of the better models I have done to date.

It\’s great to see some improvement in my painting skills.

I\’m working on my 5 man Primaris Squad at the moment, so when they\’re done I shall share a picture of them too and hope I don\’t have the same issues with the camera as I did with these ones.
