New paints, new project

So now that the weather has decided to cooperate, my next job is to do some Assault squad work.
I've got them built (except for heads) but I made the STUPID mistake of attaching the jump packs before basing.

Now it's going to be a huge pain in the ass to get the packs painted properly. Ah well, live and learn I suppose.

I picked up a couple new paints on the cheap, one of them was something called "sequine metallic black". I thought "metallic black? how does that work?" so I bought it. Maybe I'll use it as an experiment, or maybe I'll throw down a Space Marine chaplain with it. We'll see how it turns out.
I picked it up at Walmart (of all places) for about a buck a bottle. Seems like it's not too bad of a quality, but I haven't used a brush on it just yet, just opened it up and took a gander.

I'll post again with pics comparison soon, but I'll paint up a test miniature to see what it looks like first.
