It has been some time that I have picked up a brush but I'll try
to paint


• 10 man imperial guard squad

and if get them done I'll try to get the other 40 man squad
with command squad

I have a fresh new Necrons army list for the Conlict this month. For the GT I'm borrowing the army from a friend but I've already begun modeling my own army. By the end of January I'm hoping to have the Necron Lord and the Deceiver completed along with one full unit (20) of Necron Warriors and some Destroyers/Scarabs.

Whee January!

I need to:

-Clip & Clean my Space Hulk set
-Finish modeling work on the Weirdboy
-Plan out modeling/painting for the rest of the army to be done by the end of summer! (gulp...)

Get at least the first half of my Daemon army completed. There's a good possibility that will happen since I'm already done 1 squad and another one will be finished today

Ahhhh Quickshade. I'm beginning to really love this stuff

Mine are to tidy up my DE army and get it too 2000pts and fix that hydra!! Also I'm hoping to buy and paint 1k worth of 'nids before the summer.

1. Sort out my painting desk and tidy all my models etc.
2. Convert/paint etc. my inquisitor and retinue.

I'm in the process of pinning and tidying up Typhus, then get him painted before Thursday next week.

Try and get as much of the below done as possible

Last 5 Veteran Cadian Guard (Just need to finish detail)
5 Ratling Sniper Squad (Basecoated)
1 Sentinel (Requires Assembling)
15 Stormboyz
1 Warboss
6 Kommandos
10 Nobz
20 Boyz (Primed)
3 Deffkoptas (Requires Assembling)

By the end of the month I want to finish off 5 AOBR nobz, they just need the final shading, highlights and details. They are Goffs so all those checks and dags are going to take the most time.

I also want to get 10 ork boys (already put together and primed) painted up in Evil Sunz colours to go with the trukk I just finished.

My goal for the month is a 3 man unit of stealth suits and one hammerhead for my Sa'cea Tau Army. I just got done with the suits, so i just have the hammerhead to get done before the end of the month.

Assemble 10 guardsmen, paint 30 guardsmen, assemble and paint 2 L.R.E, assemble and paint one L.R.D.

Assemble and paint 5 Heavy Weapon Teams.

Sigh.

Well I am making progress.

Early this morning:
Half-painted: massive pile
Massive pile: massive pile
Needs mold lines trimmed: pretty good sized pile

Progress thus far:
Half-painted: massive pile
Needs priming: massive pile
Massive pile: still a pretty massive pile
Needs gun barrels drilled: pretty good sized pile
Needs mold lines trimmed: probably finish tonight
Unassembled: Maybe three or four boxes, probably staying that way. Don't want to do the mold lines.

Oh and I have some Orks I am working on, maybe get them finished and moved to the needs priming stage. Maybe about another couple dozen Orks.

I'm currently working on getting 1000 points of both Eldar and Orks, an ongoing mission, I can tell you.

This month will see me finish up my squad of 10 Dire Avengers and at least have the wave serpent transport under construction (warped resin = fail)
Also planning to finish off the 33 of my 48 orks, most of which have basic colours done.. just a few highlights and details to go, but 33 hurts.

I have an Ork submarine for Apoc I need to finish for a friend. Basic shape is there so it needs armour plates, periscopes, gunz and harpoonz!

The plan is to have a fully painted army on a fully painted table with fully painted scenery! Maybe another 2 months, I reckon...

Ultimate goal - finish my Green Tide!!!

Jan goal: add color 5 and 6 to all 100 Orks in the Tide (Hawk Turquoise, Chainmail)

General goalage for January:
-turn 18 and get some paints
-find and paint rest of Honour Guard squad
-build and paint gatling gun walker
-finish Space Marines Squad at least to Razorback worthy strength
-get a job and make some money for 40k
-work on/ finish Imperial Guard squad
-fix Land Raider's hatch
-base all Space Marines
-paint some orks and/ or necrons
I think that's as lofty as I'll go this month, lol

My New Years Resolution is to get all of my SM's (all 8000 pts worth) painted before school is out, and to the highest quality I can achieve!

Hello all, put together all my tau army.

2 Monoliths 12 scarb swarms 6 Destroyers 3 Drop Pods(Pain in the to build but fun to paint).

Sorry Dimmy52 was logged on my computer See next post.

Got to complete my Checklist this month for a three day event on the 23rd:
1. Complete 15 Burna Boyz; 2/3rds done
2. Build a Battlewagon; umm... next
3. Scratch build two battlewagons
4. Finish painting Ghazghkull and assemble him properly this time
5. Convert the bitz for mek boys from 4 Burna/Loota boxes into a Big Mek with KFF and Burna
6. Finish painting and reattach wheels + axel to my only Trukk
7. Get/convert a painboy
8. Get 4 PK armed nobs/convert 4 AoBR nobs to have PKs
9. Paint the only PK Nob I have
10. Build a PK + Boss pole nob for my tiny little Trukk Mob
11. Paint, build and konvert 3 killa kans to have grotzookas.
12. Build carry case that can fit in overhead luggage on plane
13. Practice painting flame designs for the Burna Boyz battlewagon
14. Build 3 Deff Rollas that don't look like pissed off bog rolls...
15. Do all this in time to catch flight to Canberra

Doesn't help that I ran out of undercoat spray and still need to source material for most of the conversions.

Done!

Also played through the first mission, and holy crap the game is just as good as I remember.
Making good progress on the Weirdboy, blog update coming in the next couple days.

1 Ork Boy/Nob a day (week days) until all of my primered yet unpainted boyz are done.

Same for me. I've been planning how to paint and building my Ork horde for some time now. It will be my first completely painted army if I can go at it steadily, and I'm excited to field models that aren't black. Plan is to get 10 Orks done per week starting this weekend (first weekend I've been back in town) and the finished ones look great in their blood axe camo pants (counting the camo the models are 11-13 colors each). If I can maintain this rate (which is about all the time I have to spare between school, work, and social life, not to mention maybe actually playing now and then) then I should be done with my 1k force in about 2 months, my 1850 point force in 4 months, and my 2500 point force in 6 months, plus a few weeks perhaps given the complexity of biker models. In there I'm going to have to work in building/doing some minor conversion work for 6 killa kans and 20 gretchin. Gonna be a busy Spring.

Updated and Official Goals:
1) Assemble/Paint Trygon Prime-Assembled, Partialy Painted
2) Convert Warriors to have boneswords/devourers-DONE!
3) Paint Hormagaunts-DONE!
4) Turn Carnifex into Hive Tyrant-DONE
5) Assemble/Paint Hive Gaurd (Last 3 in the store, yay!)-Assembled
6) Convert Warrior to Tyranid Prime-DONE!
7) Repaint the following to fit with the new paintscheme:
-6 Warriors and Prime-DONE!
-16 H. Gaunts-DONE!
-8 Genestealers-DONE!
-2 Tyrant Gaurd-DONE!

Incidentaly, my reason for not getting this all done is that I have exams in a couple weeks.-DONE!

Im Going to finish Purchasing and painting m way to 2500 points of space wolves... and one of those models will be ragnar blackmane and logan, the great wolf himself.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
If I can I want to get 5000 Point of SM Space Wolves before june... Better find a job at that rate.

1) Finish Leman Russ Squadron
2) Finish Senital Squadron


If time permits:

Make my guard look cohesive instead of each squad having its own camo pattern and armor color.

Update: One leman russ to go!

Still need to buy 2 stenitals, dont think its gonna happen in the rest of the month though.

I did manage to finish my vets though, a goal which wasnt on my list originally, so i guess everything works out.

I wana get a few traitors done up in my new colors.

I've set the goal of building a mini every night for all of Jan. So far I'm behind by two guys.

It's been a while since I picked up a brush, but I'd like to finish a Tryant Guard brood (3), my Trygon, and make progress on my Baneblade.

I am actually making pretty good progress. Never primed anything new this month but should have some units finished for the month's end. Bought new knives but forgot to get jeweller's saw blades so assemblies are on hold but the Home Hardware is just down the road.
