Somewhere in south-central England.

I am going to put all my painted ACW 15mm on to new MDF bases.

I'm writing a load of fiction. My latest story starts here... This is the index of all the stories...

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

I am finally going to finish painting the dozen or so walkers for my DzC PHR army. I am also going to purchase and begin assembling the FoW Kampfgruppe Peiper army box.

Okay this month I am super serious in actually getting something done.

1) Finish these darn valkyries. I finally have everything but the paints and one lascannon.

2) Paint a dreadball team

For some stretches: Paint another dreadball team. Paint some blackwater gulch

I intend to finish painting my daemon army before my birthday (11 days to go) when I will get a load of IG stuff to start on. Only 19 plague bearers, 10 bloodletters, a bloodthirster and a daemon prince to go.

“Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls.
The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does.
That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."
– Eighth Captain, Khârn

Its okay, I made a goal one month to paint 1 model, and I barely managed to do that. My problem is I get distracted by other projects. Already off to a poor start on this month. I want to paint dreadball and here I am working on dreamforge.

Oh, and my Paladins have been headless for the last year or so because I never got around to painting up their heads on their sprues... Hm, I should get around to doing that...

I am going to finish these banners:



Then, assemble the Baneblade, assemble/fabricate Chimera chassis for Manticore launcher scratch-build, finish assembling these 8 Kamodo APCs and get everything primed.



There is also a squadron of scout sentinels that needs some attention...I'll make that a stretch goal (with magnetized weapon options...)

Primed my Wolf Guard termies last night so hopefully finish them, got an almost assembled Wraithlord (waiting for some conversion parts) so maybe that as well.

Then there's the Wraithguard box sitting on my desk...

Finish at least 10 of my Kingdom of Men cavalry. They only need little touchups, basing and matte. Finish 12 Blood Bowl Barbarians that were converted to H2H fighters. Finish 7 Savage Orcs. Paint 1 Squat and 1 Forge Father to see if I like the color scheme.

May the dice be with you!

UPDATE:

The Basilisk is completed, just needed some cosmetic work.
All 4 Scout Sentinels have been assembled & magnets applied to various weapons.

The Chimera Convertible (Chimera/Manticore) is under way, I found an inexpensive insert/missile rack so I just need to scratch-build the four missiles.

Well I got the valks even closer. Just need to finish up some painting on the weapons, and add some magnets

And the dreadball teams are primed, but need some touch ups in some spots I missed. Then on to painting.

The first of the partially-pre-constructed Kamodos are almost done! The Manticore conversion is all ready too, but for all five of these models I am waiting for a supply drop for bitz I ordered...aquilas, H Bolters, and such.

I am still thinking about how to best represent the turret multilaser...



14 June UPDATE:

Supply drop!
Received the Manticore Missile rails today, along with the heavy bolters to mount on the hulls and lots of Aquilas. Ordered some Sentinel Multilasers yesterday, now I'll just need to build some kind of mounts for them...
