Its Aug 1st in Manila where pops is at so I'll go ahead and do this thread today


So what's on the menu this month?

Getting some work on some Space Pups? Bashing together some Orkies?

For me I'm looking to get some Trollbloods done for a Journeyman League.

Also maybe get some stuff started on a Codex: Chaos Daemon Army for a Tournament next month.

Stretch goals:

Trollblood stuff beyond the Journeyman league stuff

Codex: Chaos Daemon stuff beyond the Tournament

Goal: Prep 150 old school Imperial Guard for painting.

Stretch Goal: Complete my Deodorant Tank.

Alright so here is my main goal thus far:
+Finish the rest of my Dark Vengeance Chaos Marines.
+Build a Orc Mob for Mordheim

Stretch Goals:
+Paint at least 25 points of Mercs
+Get a start on my Orlock gang for Necromunda.

Not much is going to get done this month. I am going to be at work a lot, I might be going to Wisconsin for a bit and I am going to be spending a lot of my free time on a computer game trying to earn myself a free in game plane (World of planes, and yes I really want that Gloster Meteor!)

Although, I will work on some of my Space Marine Bikes.

Strech Goal: anything I can manage to do.

I've put a ban on buying new models for myself until everything I have currently is painted.

My painting goal for this month is to paint up my Big Mek with Shock Attack Gun and Stormclaw.

1. Finish the heads of my Purifiers to an acceptable standard and finish model assembly and base.

2. Get my girlfriend to at least start on her 3 snapfit minis.

3. Get my Khorne Raptors painted

1) Paint my squad of Gargoyles
2) Start painting Flyrant
3) Buy airbrush/compressor
4) Stock up on dip for mah gribblies

I've got a bunch of prep work I have to do for burning man, which is the last week of this month. the only hobby goal I've got for august is to put the final ~2 hours of work into my raptor squad from last month to get them off my table. gotta make room for some LED and EL wire projects

I'm looking to finish up my first squad of Kasrkin and then get my second guard platoon done. If I have enough time I'd like to get one of Leman Russ tanks done up.

Wicked boss... I totally need to go to Burning Man one year.

1. Goal Finishing Both Magnetized Forge/Maulerfiends bases and all.

2. Figuring out what I need to do next for my Khornate World Eater Army.

My goals for August: Buy and assemble

1. Farseer on Jetbike
2. 10 Dire Avengers
3. 5 Fire Dragons
4. 3 Wave Serpents
5. Crimson Hunter

I don't have any painting goals because I can't paint. I'll get a commission when I have the money.

I have my first game at my local GW with the manager on the 22nd of this month so I need to have the following atleast built by then:

1x Rhino
1x 10 man tactical squad
1x Landraider redeemer
1x Drop Pod

Shouldn't be too much of a challenge, although I have to paint the insides of the Drop Pod, Rhino and Landraider before I build them so that will delay me a bit.

Finish all 24 of my Chaos Warriors in Slaanesh theme, finish my stock Chaos Lord and then get started on my part Scratch Built part Kit Bashed Slaanesh Lord.

Should be easily achieved... Hopefully....

Switching my goals a bit since a League for Warmachine came up:

Main goals:
+Paint the rest of my Menoth
+Build a Orc Mob for Mordheim

Stretch goals:
+Paint at least 25 points of Mercs
+Get a start painting my Orlock gang
+Paint the rest of my Chosen Chaos Space Marines

Switching things up... or at least shifting gears... its all about Chaos Daemons rest of this month... gonna focus on that.

Almost 1/2 way through the month!

I want to get about 5 DV Ravenwing bikes done by the 30th

Some Progress!

Daemons built and based... just need to prime, paint, and seal. should be done by this week *crosses fingers*

At the start of the month I thought I would be too busy to paint but plans changed.

So far I've accomplished

5x Hormaguants finished and based
4x Hormagaunts painted awaiting basing
11x Hormagaunts primed and base colors painted
2x Zoanthropes primed
4x Gargoyles primed
1x Gargoyle base colors painted
4x Space Marines bikes stripped and base coated
1x Space Marine bike painted awaiting basing and rider

I hope to finish the above in the last nine days of this month.

Cool beans! Good Job!

Today, hopefully, I'll put a big dent in my Chaos Daemon Army... at the moment I'm applying Army Painter Weapon Bronze... hopefully I'll get some Army Painter Matte Black applied today too.

Well, good news. My Menoth army is almost done with two models half-finished, so I am hopefully getting them done in the next few days. Also have my Orc Warand built up (although will try and make it a little more cohesive at a later time, but for now, I just needed a built one). Also got a start on my Boomhowlers. All and all, my main goals are likely going to be finished.

I actually managed to get this done so I'm pretty chuffed. Just going to use the rest of this month to crack on with painting the 1400pts I have left of my 1500pt army.

So far I've got 1 Raptor Champion done and the other 4 in partial stages of painting and assembly (painting pieves seperate). My Purifiers are finished and viewable in Showcase. My girlfriend is no where close to beginning to learn to paint.

Got 20 Hormagaunts done. Next up Gargoyles, more gaunts, 6 warriors, and the 2 Zoanthropes. I will see what I can do this weekend and the rest will be started/continued next month!

Khorne Chaos Daemon Army is complete!

I'm going to pass on the stretch goals... partly because I got rid of my Trollbloods... also because mom is visiting the next couple of days so I won't have time to hobby/paint.

September Thread is GO!

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/613137.page#7166832

I more than met my quota. Painted up 2 flyers, 2 squads of space wolves, my Logan Grimnar and Krom. As of September, I need to get the Orks done that I got with Stormclaw.
