Touching up my Bullgors and assorted Chaos Monsters with a fresh coat of some paint here and there, and rebasing to rounds(finally) in anticipation of AoS 2.0. I never bothered prior to now because I felt they were too expensive points wise in previous GHB's but they were mentioned to be getting a points reduction in the Brayherd faction focus. I'm hoping to be able to field a large Warherd force with accompanying Gorgons and Cygors, and Ungor Raider allies.

While waiting for my Astrogranite Debris to dry on my hellblasters, I'm putting together some more Primaris marines. They are the newest additions to my army and I want to see if the intercessors can replace my tacticals.
I'm a huge fan of tactical marines, so if they do end up being better I will be quite sad. (I will play tacticals in friendly games, but I want to use what is best at events)

Today has seen an effort to clear some part finished models from my desk, 8 ork boyz getting the final dust dry brush they have been waiting for for weeks (took half an hour) and then 13 tyranids got the dry brushing and highlighting completed.
Moved on to the next project, some 28mm SS... I last touched them in 2015..
just need to remember how they hell I painted these
I did write it down.. and since that was 2015 I have no idea where the book is.

Done about half of the DW Knights. I ended up breaking the glue in a few places to better paint them. I'm trying something new where I basically paint the legs and base first, then paint the inside of the chest and shield, then glue the torso to the legs and finish off the easy to reach places. It's working well. Also noticed that my wet blending has become much faster. I read something from a pro painter who talked about just getting stuff done and moving on to the next piece. I'm trying to work faster and not worry about every brush stroke as much.

Been remodeling the Unisystem to suit the current campaign's setting a bit better. Current house rules for magic are atrocious, since a fireball is actually weaker than a punch. Also found a simpler way to keep track of ammunition, which is good when your alcoholic Kermit the Frog character stocks up on too many SMG clips.
Also trying to set up a dreadnought-only 40k campaign. Thought it would be cool to have a planet where old Horus Heresy dreadnoughts were entombed from both sides, and then have them reawaken centuries later. Armies would be primarily dreads, but with one or two "visiting" units for auxiliaries.

Fixing and tinkering with my Dark Eldar from 3rd Edition. I picked up three "modem" Raiders for $5 that were languishing in an FLGS drawer two weeks ago. They were assembled and primed but hard living had apparently broken off everything (even the rudders). The hulls were in decent shape, though, so with some Bitz box work they are approaching being table ready. Most modelling fun I have had in a while! The flight stands were a challenge, though, as the previous owners had filled in the connections.

Yes, SJ Games OGRE. We will be playing using OGRE Miniatures Lite, included in the box and a free download.
I also have the re-released OGRE pocket edition, the 1970s hex based board game.
The original OGRE game is pretty decent esp considering it's a 1970s game.
OGRE Miniatures Lite can be/should be played on a small table since the longest range of anything in the core is 16".
What I'm doing today is actually playing the miniatures version.

So with that said, today I put together 2 more AOS 'Start Collecting: Beastclaw Raiders' boxes(2x Huskards on Stonehorns and 8 Mournfang Cavalry) and 2 Mournfang Cavalry from an old WHFB 2-model box that I had in the stash. So much destruction!

Touchups? Done. Balthasar Gold (now my fav paint in the whole range) on all the little icons of Nurgle? Done! Nurgle's Rot (aka. the greatest technical paint ever invented) liberally coating tentacles and running out of vents? Done. And ew! First test of texture paint for a base? Drying as we speak. First use of the new Nighthaunt Gloom paint? Looking great! New superglue used to put the last few bits on (yes, I used sub-assemblies for the ones with guns across their chests)? Done, and I'm not covered in dry superglue, which is a bonus. My first 10 Plague Marines are nearly done! Truth be told I only need one of them - the Plasma Gunner - for the start of this weekend's Black Crusade campaign, but if I'm gonna paint one, why not paint 'em all? Tomorrow, assuming the base test works, I base the rest as soon as I get home, drybrush the bases later on, paint the rims black... and we're done!

We screwed up so badly we ended up almost setting our master on fire whilst invading the wrong space station... And on Friday I built and painted, from start to finish, my first ever Finecost minaiture - a CSM Warpsmith. I am so glad they want away from that soft pseudo-resin cap. It's awful to work with, and so many connection points to the wonky sprues. Still, the Warpsmith looks ace. Need to base him though.

Wrapped up six Poxwalkers using a minimal selection of colours to get them done as quickly and easily as possible for Kill Team. Ten more to go (six easy to build and the remaining four from Dark Imperium)! Though chances are, we're going to need a lot more for future last stand scenarios, so I've primed the remaining twenty two as well, just in case.
It's not golden standard, but they look good on the table.

I hope to have it in place and ready for operations in a little under 8 weeks (I have to do some yard prep-work first, and then put the formwork in to get the slab poured).
It's only 10'x8' so it's not meant as a man-cave gaming space - but I will have the capability to hang a shade sail between it and my other garden shed so I'll have a shady area for outside bbq or gaming (it'll fit 3 6x4 tables in, or 4 4x4s under it).

I foolishly decided to make a squadron of three using the Aquila wing decals and I hate them. ). Sadly out of matte varnish at the moment, so it's sitting looking oddly shiny and with no canopy.
That gives me three Valkyries, a Valkyrie Skyclaw and an Aquila Lander for landing troops, with a Vulture, Thunderbolt and Lightning for top cover and clearing the LZ.

Today I am going on a glue run so I can finish my Mantic Battlezones boxes and put together some Berzerkers. I get my glue at dollar stores because it's so much cheaper and does the same thing, plus they have a great gel and thin variety that mix well together. The thin stuff is great for filling in seams like on these Battlezones buildings. I use a lot of the thin glue. I always get funny looks when I buy glue cuz I'll get $10 worth at a time. At the dollar store that's a lot of glue and no one ever believes the tattooed guy wearing all black ISN'T somehow making drugs out of it.

The fun bit is that nothing from the first picture is in the second picture.
The piles of in-tact sprues actually, when combined, make up three complete Galvanic Magnavents. When Renegade was rereleased, some bits sites broke the boxes up not by bit but by kit, so I got them for, like, 40% the regular cost of buying it boxed.
There is actually one thing missing from that picture - two more Munitorum containers (not boxes, just the sprues) that I got a while back.

Secret Weapon Miniatures just started their 20% off Anniversary Sale, and here's a WIP base I rummaged from their Bag-o-Crap deal. $40 for a pound of resin, mostly bases, that didn't meet their standards. The base is on the left, and, after priming white, I pre-inked it with Secret Weapon Miniatures washes: Concrete for the rune column, Stone for the stone and ground, and Green for the moss. Concrete had the best results. I prefer to use Stone for wet underground rock, such as the base on the right. Green looked too bluish and not natural, so I'll try it on green Space Marines instead.

Today saw a five man squad of whatever they are called finished and the three flying ones also finished, just the plasma ones (well four of them) to finish and the two junior officers and they are ready to roll.

Building the Redemptor Dreadnought from Tooth & Claw. I'm probably going to use it with my Dark Angels, and give the ETB one I bought a while back to my Wolves, which will mean respraying it with The Fang instead of Caliban Green.

Assembling a not quick-build redemptor dreadnought - I'm starting to suspect they make these quick-build kits so they can have the freedom of OCD-out on the other kit. Seriously - it's three frames of bits. I don't know if I'm estatic or terrified.
On the plus side, I did score the quickbuild Castigator kit and made this guy:
Got to figure our his chest-hole. The greenstuff is close to the cloth, but obvious enough to need covering up.

Did some additional work on the new Redemptor. It's a ton of parts, but being able to open/close the sarcophagus armor is pretty sweet. Wasted a lot of time magnetizing the foward weapon pods to find out they fit and work without magnetizing *sigh*

more work on some marines, unit of five terminators had the last few details added then on to six of the "conquest" issue 1 Interbananannnannas.
now all but the final layer of green for the armour finished on five and one even has that, will finish up over the weekend.
Was going to merge them into the existing squads, but think I'll actually just buy a box of normal ones and add two to each group fo three for two more five man squads.. Brings me to four, six when the rest of Conquest arrives

Finally actually got around to painting something
4 of my 8 Nolzur Deepcuts chests
Pulled the treasure blocks out of the open chests and cleaned up a couple mold lines.
Did a simple brown base coat and bone colour drybrushing on the wood.
2 chests were done with bronze metal strapping and the other 2 iron and then shaded the lot in agrax earthshade.
Painted the treasure blocks black, bronze then finally gold with a few gems painting on before hitting it with a light sepia wash.
Its not much but I am notorious for not getting any painting done. Paints wither and die in the aeons between my painting sessions.
Also still got the other 4 chests that have skull locks so Im still figuring out which colours I'll use on them. Probably going to attempt glowing eyes on them too. Something I usually screw up badly.

Got my primaris painted up in my take on the black templars, I'm going to make my army Black templars for the Subscription so it's a quick and easy paint scheme. Also my new theodon model on horseback got painted yesterday making a start on the new Lord of the rings boxed set. Plenty to keep me going in that set that's for sure.
