Strategizing Grey Knight Chapter Master

2k points of demons looks relatively small, I'd expect it from a GK force, but in my head, demons should have lots of smaller demons!
How long do you envisage the full army to take painting wise? a month? 2 months?

Yeah it's smaller than I thought it would be. I think its because I have Skarbrand, a Daemon Prince, and 2 Soul Grinders eating up points.
I'm about finished with the army. I'd say from building it to sealing it this evening it took me something like 2 weeks. I could probably have gotten it done sooner but I took a lot of breaks to get some other stuff done... also some evenings after work I didn't feel like doing anything. I think I probably could have gotten this army done in a week if I really stuck to it.

I may have to put it off for a while... at least maybe till June. I've got stuff coming in but I'm going to have to turn around and sell it to make payment on a bunch of expenses because some eBay listings of mine aren't going as planned.

Bummer to hear. You are definitely getting better at painting while keeping a tremendous pace, so I enjoy seeing you keep moving forward. I'm sure you'll be getting a pm from me though, you know I cant turn down a good deal.

Here are the 3 final projects before I go into another hobby hiatus:
1. Space Marine Terminator Chaplain - This is for a sort of unofficial contest here on dakka dakka. Still unsure as to what chapter to represent on the one colored shoulder pad. Probably some chapter found in the generic Space Marine codex; maybe Ultramarines.
2. Space Marine Bike - This is actually part of an attack bike that I got from a sale here on dakka dakka. I just found out a couple bits are missing on the side car sprue so I'm just going to build the bike part and paint it. Not sure what chapter.
3. Ork Slugga boy. I pieced this one from spare parts given to me in a trade.
After these three are done, I'm going to have to put away the hobby stuff again. I'm running out of resources. Trying to do an army like I planned is not financially possible.

So enough whining! Am I right?!
On to the work...
Here is where the magic will happen.
Some new items I attained prior to finding that I can't really afford to be getting stuff like this.
Some of the stuff I have left.
My cutting mat. This thing has been with me since San Luis Obispo, CA.
Just some light work this evening. Going to clean up this guy: Phranq da tank.
Here is how he is now.
And here he is after a teensy bit of work. In the light I had to work with it looked like I caught a lot. However after seeing these upclose pictures with a flash, I can see I missed a lot.
That'll be all for the evening. It's a pain in the butt working with the light that I have in my room. I'm going to have to rob Peter to pay Paul and find something somewhere in the apartment I can use.
EDIT:
LET THERE BE LIGHT!
/cliche
Lo and thus Francissicus explored the far reaches of The Apartment and brought back to The Room the legendary Lamp of Desk! For paint, the search continues...
EDIT 2:
Phranq Vs. Warkittie Titan

Is he going to be holding something in the hand? A skull would give him a funny look. Make it a human skull with an Commisar hat, call it "Alas, por Yarrik".

He's supposed to have a kind of "Come and get me!" or "Bring it!" type pose. But your idea sounds good! haha Automatically Appended Next Post: Throwback Thursday!
Here is a Khador Field Gun that I did maybe back in 2008.

Found some stuff to use for my hobby work!
Found a box in a corner of the closet and SURPRISE!... basing sand and some pots of paint. I've done this so many times... buy stuff and forget about it.
I picked up some plastic party plates to use as palettes.
Last night I did some basing. Simple stuff. Glue and sand. I let it dry overnight.
I decided to try the citadels Imperial Primer. I've used brush on primers before and they were fine.
After vigorous shaking, I gave it a try. It was terrible. It was coming on like some kind of ink or wash. Not at all like a primer. At first I thought maybe that its some kind of special thing with Citadel's primer.
After giving the model a coat of the stuff I looked at it and was kind of unsatisfied. I looked online about it and turns out you really REALLY have to shake it good. Some folks mention that they had to stir it with something in the pot and still shake it and still the results were sub par. I took a small stir stick and used it on the pot of primer. I then shook it for maybe 2 or 3 minutes. It came on better but still not as good as say Reaper's paint on primer. Very disappointing
