So, I'm painting Bushido Risen Sun now, yep. Good news are, the game has a very low model count, so I can actually put more effort into the painting without resorting to my usual extensive corner-cutting.
Tried out some new techniques, practiced NMM, had a lot of fun in general. Besides a very painful mold-lines cleaning, the model is super nice and was a pleasure to paint.
(Had an unreasonably hard time picking between the Descension and Inari boxes, ended up with the tengu simply because they seem marginally easier to play)
