Sorry I'm late!

So November is here! What are your projects? or rather ... What are 'not' going to do this month because you'll be spending all your time playing Call of Duty Black Ops II/Halo 4/(your game of choice here)?

My vow this month is to go to GWs website and try not to shake my head or pull out my hair.

the november plan:

- complete painting two tac marine sergeants (have them base-coated now)
- base, weather w/pigments and varnish 2 ML tac marines, 2 special weapons tac marines and 2 tac marine sergeants
- clean, assemble & paint six more tac marines with some fun options (grenade arm, auspex arm, some bolters w/scopes, etc.)
- re-record all my painting formulas since I've drifted a bit from the last time I wrote down all the color recipes (e.g., how *did* I do that red last time?!)

Paint my Helbrute, help my brother paint as much of his Black reach set as possible, repair my broken Nids

Paint my squad of Striking Scorpions and Dark Reapers (not including bases).

Ah!!!!! Awesome

HELLBRUTE and termies.

Get my tau firwarriors done.
and finish the broken landspeeder.

I'm not going to copy over what I was planning to do last month as I failed.


Miserably.


So for this month I plan to:

1.Keep working on my Dakka Bommer although it is not my main focus now.
2. Start buying the models I need for my IG army - 2 chimera's and a Valkyrie
3. Fully build and basecoat the 2 chimera's, valkyrie and a box of troops.

This month I intend to:
1: Finish work on my Big D (Big O Megadeus inspired bipedal Defiler conversion)
2: Round off my CSM force (needs my C.Land Raider to arrive... (already 10 days after it was meant to arrive...) and for me to build that)
3: Start work on 'updating' my Classic DE Raider / Ravagers (need to make 14 or so Lances and 21 Dissies)

oooooo I like this! Yes, this is what happened

I try to paint all the survivors from the Zombicide Board Game this month.
That's not too many models, but I try to put some effort in this so... we'll see. ^^

Just starting a Black Legion chaos army so far it is comprised of the following:
-20 bezerkers
-1 Blood Thirster
-5 possessed marines
-1 sorcerer
-1 Predator Tank
expecting to paint all these guys within a month and then add some more marines for some backbone and after that...well i don't know.

Ok, this is fun. Share your goals for accountability. I like it!

November means -
1. Finish Death Guard CSM - 2nd of 2 squads plus Havocs and Predator and Typhus
2. Construct and paint a frikkin awesome scratch-built Baneblade for Steel Legion IG

That's probably ambitious enough...

Try my best to finish (including a sick base) a new captain for my marines.
Must....open....box....

I'm pretty new here, (I stalked a lot ) so i think here is as good as it get to start posting!

This month, ill try to do;

1- reorganize workspace for my new arrival to fit( brand new and first ever airbrush)

2- try to upgrade my new legion of everblight scheme and finish my 3 others shredders.

3- learn how to paint with this newtool... this might take the rest of the month only for this one


I think that's ambitious enough coming from me

Been here a while now, and never posted in this reoccurring thread.
This month I will finish out 6 Biker Nobz to get my all biker army a little closer to reality.
These will join three already finished bikers, and my epic warboss.
I am also going to crack the shrink wrap on my three Ork fliers and start eyeballing them for magnetizing, and maybe get started with the cleaning, and initial planning for them. All in Badmoon colors.

Time for that mid-month update goodness!
1. Complete my Sisters of Battle Seraphim squad 2/9 (remaining figures are about half way to phase 3, lots of white to put down on these girls)
2. Complete SoB Rhino - Complete, can't even recognize it as a slagged Salamanders Rhino any more
3. Complete SoB exorcist conversion - Complete, Iron Warriors Whirlwind? Nope purifying MLRS of the Sisters of Battle
4. Clean and reorganize workspace - Complete, switching my paints to my right has been really nice and I feel like I have a lot more space over all
5. Acquire transport/stowage for SM and SoB - Complete, KR Multicase is awesome. just over $130 for three cases that provide transport for my entire SM, SoB and Infinity forces.

Mid update review from me, not doing to bad.

1. Dakka Bommer - Done a bit more painting, I should have a full base layer on all of it by the end of the month.
2. Model Buying - 2 Chimera's are bought, haven't really got the funds for the valk but we shall see
3. 1 chimera built, 2nd to be done this weekend. One set of troops done, 2nd will be done by the end of next week.

I'll follow suit:

slow progress this month:

- completed tac marine sergeants with magnetized chainsword, powerfist, bolt pistol, plasma pistol and combi-flamer options
- varnished all 6 marines

hoping to get those 6 marines based and finished tonight, with pics posted this weekend to my P&M blog. then I'll get started on cleaning & assembling the next 6. if I manage to get them base-coated by the end of the month, I'm going to call it good :p

Death Guard CSM are all done! (Well, not the termies, but they weren't on this queue...)



More on the project blog here http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/482833.page
Also, I changed the Baneblade project into a Crassus project, as the tracks were not really long enough and it would have looked silly. So, I present - the CRASSUS ARMORED ASSAULT CARRIER (search Dakka for that term and check out the hilarious thread)



Typhus and the Nurgle Predator are on deck!

Finish up my Space Wolves Pack!

I started out airbrushing them as single pieces which went quickly and very well. Painting small parts by hand I even went to great lengths to drill tiny holes and attach to toothpicks. THIS TAKES FOREVER! So I just went ahead and glued together them all in various stages of hand painting.

I have almost finished my GK army so that will be done within 2 days, then I'm going to strip my Eldar army and begin painting them. I may even finish them because I'm going to brush dip them. The goal is to simply have them to play with as opposed to look perfect so that seems to be the way to go! Plus I want to try it anyhow.

Oh and eagerly await my terrain I've ordered...

Its kind of a late vow, but my goal is to finish the box of Firewarriors I won!
