Well another weekend has come and gone. House still is disarray. Working OT every week. Vicious cycle...
New purchases
So I had to do a hobby shop run as I near the Raven Guard build project completions. I ordered a metal cup for my oil washes, and Vallejo Metal Color Exhaust Manifold to follow this paint tutorial Form Cult of Paint. Then I needed new sanding sticks and some other things so I hit up some local hobby shops for more paint, Plastic rods, and plastic cement. I did order more Pop Goes the Monkey stuff too. Along with another plastic Contemptor and more RG dice along with a 2nd Sword Praetor.
My Warhammer+ voucher arrived and on Saturday I preordered my Proteus Land Raider.
My Forgeworld, Forge of Mars, BattleBling and etsy orders arrived also.
Modeling
So on the modeling front I was able to build my Master of Signals, and my 3 Tactical Support Squads (Rotor Cannon, Plasma rifle, and Meltagun).

Basing
I also continued basing models....like in this video from Tabletop Skirmish Games. It looked a little bland and when the vallejo pumice dried you could not see some areas so I added my standard basing material fine/ coarse ballast mixture and red bricks to the wooden stir sticks, cork board, skulls, and pumice on bases. I began running low so I mixed a new batch. Once mixed I noticed it was different as i had made it years ago and figured I try something new I learned from Luke at Geek Gaming Scenic and threw some (ok a lot) Tile Grout into the mixture.
It gives it a nice war torn look. In the Pictures below you can see the pre and post second dipping in flock.
