WIP of the Troggoth. Still need to shade and highlight everything and I should be fairly close to being done. Unfortunately I also have to wait on a good light source and some circular bases I had my wife ship.

Great work Para, love the painting and the model

Your models have a really good Necromunda feel AUGmaniac, well done for getting them finished

Looks really good queen_annes_revenge, especially the cloak, any change of bigger pics so we can see all the details?

Argh. I built up.a good bit of momentum at the start of the month, but between waiting for some paints that haven't worked as inhad envisaged, family holidays and sickness it's all gone a bit static. Hopefully be able to wind back up over the next few days and get my forward team finished. I bought a new airbrush, so having a bit of a play with that is high on my agenda when it turns up.

My Command Section as a Breaching squad and a Commissar to make certain they succeed.







The Plasma Gun backpacks are scratch built, and every model is converted in some way with the exception of the Commissar. I am very happy with the Commissars trench coat that shines like leather despite being covered with a Matt varnish. All the "Spiders" have their gang patches on their right sleeves.

Cheers,

Some more work done on the Big Mek conversion. Painting is pretty much done.
Still need to do the base and take better pictures.

I believe I'm done.
I was feeling pretty confident, until I looked at some of the entries starting to come in already....


Love the Theoden, Para, the red leather on the horses barding looks awesome

Proof Pic time at last! Here we have 3 Custodian Guard, 1 Vexilla and a Shield Captain, I doubt you can get more into the breach than the Emperors finest!



I have had a lovely month to be honest, finished off the 10 cultists that were in my queue ready for Ebay. I also moved over 100 paints into dropper bottles which took me an Ice Age to complete... hence the late upload of these guys!

Here's my proof photo for the month. I've got my PC working again. I bought a SSD and did a complete reinstall of Windows on it. Meanwhile, my wife went a bit mad and bought herself a new laptop!

Anyway, I'm planning on painting some Aggressors. I say planning on, I've been painting them for a couple of weeks already, having started early in Feb. Here is the proof pic -



And here's a WIP on how they look so far. I've spent hours and hours highlighting the power armour.

Sigh. New job is kicking my ass and killing my patience for dealing with DKoK melta guns (seriously, who designed that weapon with the hand, gun, and bracing arm as three separate parts) so I'm going to have to sit this one out after all.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

Aww thats a shame Peregrine

The base looks very nice Flinty

I'm liking those Salies already Felt, they need some love after Istvaan V

Really cool model Power Elephant, looking forward to seeing it completed

PossumCraft your entry really reminds me of Gears of War, excellent work on the conversion

I've been really busy at work for the last week & 1/2 and then ill for the last few days so progress has been very limited (and why I haven't posted much) here is the current WIP. I'm away all week on a training course so its all or nothing now, trying to pack everything I need to carry on.

Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?





UK

Since it is a shorter month and a couple of people have asked me about later submissions, I'm happy to officially extend this to end on the 2nd March if that helps.

The next round (the annual Space Marines one) will still go up on the 1st as usual, but I'll take submissions for this up to the end of the 2nd.
