Welcome, Creeping Death. We all love some creeping death sometimes, right?
A hobby habit I have ingrained into my daily routine is to paint at least one color on one item (Blaster, whips, reaver blade, spikes, etc, etc,..). I usually do this at night as I am quite worn out from the day and a lot more calm (steadier hand). This works for me because I paint in squads and that can get very tedious at times painting the same armor color then shading and dry brushing and on and on. So, 1 color a day works for me And It allows you to focus more on the details.
Good luck with your Painting and enjoy the City.
