But have been enjoying all the little differences between the versions too, like black cabling, the odd chest unit light or even just a second wash of "Citadel" Nuln Oil.<br /><br />S'funny, but I actually find my productivity decreases when I'm not going to work. I guess I look forward to my snippets of hobby-time and that makes me make the most of them.
