I want to do:
- Paint Warboss and his bike

If I have Time I will:

Hopefully I will be able to do something on the things I want to do extra, but I mainly hope to finish the boss and koptas this month...

wait wait wait wait... huh..?

By the powers vested in me by the lord Chuck Norris, I vow to bring an end to poverty, hunger, and suffering. To end all wars that break families, and shatter nations, to create a nation where equality is not just a right, but taken for granted as the norm.

lolz... I just had to do it.

For the month of November
1) finish adding chapter detail to LR
2) Finish painting TAC squad
3) Get a life

Not the most productive month for me:

1 Mega-Nob with Kombi-Skorcha
2 Death Guard Raptors
2 Burnas

Nearly done the 3 Warp Spiders.

Not touched:

1 Warp Spider Exarch
1 Death Guard Raptor
1 Death Guard Raptor Aspiring Champion which will probably become a standard Raptor with a Melta-Gun
2 Burnas

Getting sick in the last couple weeks of the month didn't help, but the real problem was that I just wasn't motivated to assembly line paint. And hey, I've been doing it for most of this year already, so not a huge surprise there. So, no November Vows for me, but I'm just going to take a couple of months and paint what strikes my fancy whether I want it for the table or not, see if that puts me back into the painting mood.

Well, there you have it. 4 MOWST and Kroot to do for next month, and possibly starting the AOBR orks (if their new bases ever come in).
