Inactivity, Motivation, and Warhammer

Ready, Aye, Ready!
Heyo! ChapterAquila92 here!
I'll admit that I haven't been particularly outspoken over the past few months, mostly due to Navy work (it never ends...) and other things away from social media. It's also been part and parcel with a lack of motivation on anything furry-related at the moment. Rest assured however that I'm not dead and won't be packing up and leaving anytime soon.
In any case, I've been predominantly focused on my other expensive hobby - tabletop wargaming - as of late. Up until this past month, I was engaged in a slow-build league for Adeptus Titanicus, of which I've already posted a photo of two of the titans back in February. I've since finished painting a total of five titans in preparation for a local event at the end of June, whereby I won 3rd place out of 16 by points scored over the course of the three games I played.
With that out of the way, I've resumed painting up my Salamanders for Horus Heresy, as I've got another event lined up this October. Thus far I've got a full 10-man flamer support squad painted, and am currently working on one of two 10-man tactical squads that still need their gold trim done. Of course, this is a little easier said than done when the models in question are Mk III space marines, so I'm having to spend some more time on the trim than I usually would, but luckily there's only three squads of such units in the army I intend on bringing - the third is a missile support squad.
I'll be doing my best to post progress on these and other projects in due time.
