I've done alot this month.
I did nothing with the dark angel chapter.
I built my drop pod and got it all painted. Pia to assemble but it's fully built and painted.
Got not just 8, but 22 fenrisian wolves and 1 cyberwolf. Also decided to do 3 thunder wolf calvary that I had as well.
Got not just 2 tirmagonts(sp) but 12 of them painted.
Then did 2 aegis defense lines w quad guns.
And assembled and painted a pair of knight gallants.
And broke the leg off my metal voltron. I've had since the 80s.. all in all a productive month.. I'll get the photos up tomarrow in the daylight of the then I did for this month's challenge and post pics of the others in my modeling blog for the chapter as well tomarrow.
Again nothing based yet until I've got a whole flanking force or the whole Lance or 'nid swarm put to gether. As far as my da goes. I'm transferring 5th company to 4th company as I already painted their shoulders all in green shoulder plate rims.

Finished: Dedicated to enforcement of the LEX IMPERIALUS, the men and women of the Adeptus Arbites tirelessly work as judge, jury and executioner. (54mm =I= Barbaretta) - Rest of pics under spoiler. The pose was so wonky that I eventually gave up trying to get her face and body in focus and resorted to the "hand hold". :(
(Rest of pictures under the spoiler tag.)

wow Jan, jaw dropping as usual
Midget Gems lmao that's a great idea! Love and will probably be stealing it
Finished my Giant Rats and (tried) to take good pics:
I should probably note, they're not affixed to their bases, after I did those I decided I didn't really like how the bases came out and so I'm currently in the process of rebasing them all onto hex bases.

Mine's finished (I've now painted R2D2 twice, after a disaster - see earlier in the thread for details) but I'm not happy with the photos I took, so I'm going to have another go at taking some pics this evening. Hopefully I'll upload the results tonight.

Here's my finished entry, "Ork Tankbusta w/ Panzerfaust & Can Opener". I still have to figure out the photography bit, but I'm pretty glad w/ the way the Panzerfaust and the paint job turned out. Now I'm just 1 Tankbusta away from having a squad!

Some good entries so far by those who have finished! As for mine, I'm done except for basing and some blood on their weapons, so I will indeed be finishing this month. Not a moment too soon, either, it appears.

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak.

It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

I tried to edit the photos this time to make things look a bit cooler. I changed up the location i took the photos too. The first photo is the one i liked the best, but use whichever one looks best for the challenge photo.

"Who you calling big nose, Bignose?"
Monty "The Runt" Python - Goblin Loony
here is Griblet "Bignose" Ballgrabber, the toe stomping, shin kicking, knee biting, ball grabbing rising star of the Marienburg Muckers...
this was a limited edition run of 125 copies made by Steve Buddle, for his (sadly now defunct) company, Spyglass Miniatures...
he does a nice job on Greenskins, as the AoS Brutes he recently sculpted at GW, and this guy, show...
i had a lot of fun working on this little dude, using P3 Wurm Green for the first time, as well as experimenting with using P3 Murderous Magenta to shade the green...
the Elven Bloodbowl helmet is a carved up Space Marine helmet, which turned out pretty cool looking...
i tried the Mourn Mountain Snow paste from the Citadel Technical range for the first time...
it goes on nice and thick, which will make a nice base for building up deep snow...
unfortunately, it dries very grey, and looks like standard house spackle...
i hit it with a thin layer of white paint, and it looks much more like a chalk line than the initial try did...
anyway, i hope you like him...
now on to the votes...
it's gonna be a tough one again this month...
Vote Ballgrabber!!!
cheers
