For this month:

-get a second dreadnought chassis built
-get the autcannons for the dreads cleaned and put on
-clean and prep the bases for the bikers and storm talons I have built as well as for the 2 dreadnoughts.
-cut the hand off of either a plasma pistol or power sword and replace it with a green stuffed handle.

(I could do more maybe but I don't want to start painting till the weather warms up a bit so my primer doesn't get messed up. I'd build more but funds are kind of limited right now and some of them have to go to other things... dang you eye doctor visits and glasses.)


Done! Except the plasma pistol thing... I ended up changing my list so didn't need to do it.

Looking good! You wouldn't happen to have a Marine with missile launcher spare would you? I need to cut down on the freaking plasma spam in my DA army a little in the event the MG and MM in my Ravenwing and the two chainfists isn't enough Antitank.

I beg of you sarge let me lead the charge when the battle lines are drawn
Lemme at least leave a good hoof beat they'll remember loud and long

Sorry! All out of standing marines w/ heavy weapons. I thought I had the bits from a tac squad for the missile launcher but it seems I'm out of that too.

Good to see that you all are making some progress! We are all moved out of our apartment, busy relocating now, and all of my stuff is in storage...while we look for a place to live. Blegh.

- finish up two test paint schemes for my night lords so I can decide on the final scheme
- paint defiler
- paint chaos lord

stretch goal is to clean and assemble the other 8 CSM models for my first squad

definitely not as productive as I'd expected to be. I got my test models done, but I'm only about half way through painting my defiler. had a few misteps early on and now I'm waiting on some paint I ordered, so I may not finish deffie before the end of the month.

not the banner month I'd hoped for...
- finish test models: done
- paint defiler: 85% done; waiting on VLM paints to come in the mail to finish it
- paint chaos lord: 85% done; waiting on VLM paints to come in the mail to finish him

on the plus side, I found time to convert and prep three aspiring champions for my CSM and raptor squads. should be laying some primer down on them later tonight. I'll have to make up some ground in march, as I'm falling behind and also have a few things I want to paint up for my salamanders.

Alright, this month I am really gonna make a goal I KNOW I can get done.

1) Get all my Black Templar stuff airbrushed black (basecoat)
2) Paint one test mini in new paint line for my IG
3) Finish my 3 valkyries.
4) Paint Clancy Gang for Blackwater Gulch


Well, I had a horrible month with this.

1) I got 1 rhino half built of 4. (interior painting on 2 are almost done, and 1 needs primer)
2) Never got around to finding a mini to test paint
3) No updates on this really.
4) Never finished cleaning them up and still looking for a primer that I like on metal.
