The primer is currently drying on the eagle, I didn't get a chance to paint him up yet like I wanted to. Silly things like reading assignments and response papers on the second day of class are getting in my way. Oh well I think I actually learned something which is a treat.

Anyway I can happily report that the Citadel black spray seems less crappy than the last time I used some. The guys at the shop said that the horrid smell has decreased with the last few batches, and the horribly slow dry times have decreased as well. My initial experience seems to verify this. I sprayed outside my back door at -22C and the paint seems more opaque, less stinky, and I was able to flip the wings and handle the body (carefully!) after about 15 minutes. Not quite the dry time of the older generation spray, but much better than the 60 or more minutes we were having the last few months.

Also? I gotta stop posting at 3-5:00 in the morning. Just because I've been having problems getting to sleep lately doesn't mean I shouldn't try getting to sleep at a normal time!
