Took advantage of this nice weather to do some painting. Out of blue like I stated before so I primed the blue panels and painted the red ones for the legs. Blue will have to wait till pay day. Metal Mech attached the following image(s):

Still no paint but I am not wasting a nice day so more priming this time parts for the backpack/wing things. Four photos because I didn't realize the last two parts were for the same build section. Metal Mech attached the following image(s):

Today was supposed to be a model build day with the kid at the grandparents and wife at work. Not so much. Did get some painting done. First the feet, then the legs, and then the shoulder/back parts. Metal Mech attached the following image(s):

Sill working on this and making progress. Due to the photobucket issue I am not posting photos just yet. As soon as I figure out what I am doing I will post new photos and fix all the old ones.

Ok guys I got this sorted out now. I found a photo resizing app for my phone that I like. So no I can resize the photos and upload them here. Now that I have that figured out I am going to start posting up all the progress I made before vacation. I was hoping to make progress after vacation especially with this lovely weather we are having but I really need to spend time fixing the photos in this post. I already started by fixing the last three photos. I have decided to work backwards with newest photos first and oldest last. My goal is to do a few each day until complete. So for now here is the first new post in a while. Basically just some metal detail that needed to be painted. I forgot to photograph the parts before painting so I did a quick shot right after I primed them. Metal Mech attached the following image(s):

Next step if the foot assembly. I resized these photos smaller because of issues with other photos showing without constant refreshing. If this works better I will go back and resize the others. Metal Mech attached the following image(s):
