Not sure how ill cost Indomitus for points, think this will be the first time ill break the system which isn’t bad for 20 weeks really.

Those alien drones . Wonderful work with the glare on their heads.

Nice Aliens! Their shiny heads are fantastic. I reckon they could pass as tyranids, or maybe play them as an elite bunch of assassins?

Love the xenomorphs, too. Glossy varnish or something else?

Thanks the glares mostly just the light

thanks, yeah 2 coats of gloss over a ver smooth n clean layer of black.


Week 22

Managed to get Fabius Bile built and painted within a month of purchasing him.

Too much procrastination means that the Zoat wasn’t finished in time.

Also got a test mini for my Necrons finished, was aiming for a darker more ghosty take on the classic chrome terminator look.

Starting points 106
Points earned: 26 (1 character finished and refund for Fabius bile)
Total points: 132


Fabius Bile











Necron Cryptek

Quick turnaround on Fabius, he looks great to boot! The fluid in the vials look good on Mr Bile and his thrall. Cool scheme for the necrons too, is this in preparation for Indomitus?

Ta dude, absolutely prep work for Indomitus

Nice work on Fabulous Bill, he's such a great mini and might tempt a loyalist to go to the dark side
Excited to see you tackle the Indomitus Necrons, nice scheme and the glow effect looks superb!

Cheers Viterbi

Hobby hoard clearance Week 23

Points: -129

First time the system has broken, bought a Doom scythe



Which would have been ok but couldn’t not buy Indomitus



and that’s caused me to break the system.
Soo no purchases until I get back on track


Starting points 132
Points earned: 43 (2 minis finished 37 built)
Purchases: 2 -304 points (Indomitus 274 doom scythe 30
Total points: -129

On a positive note
I have managed to build all my Necrons from Indomitus


got a Test Necron warrior done



And finished my unit of Northern warriors with a john snow type

Shame you are on negative points, but you’re right that Indomitus was too good to pass up! The Test-cron really looks great! The dark metals look really brooding and contrast great with the glowing green bit. More ideas for what I’d like to do with mine!

Cheers gobert

Buying Indomitus is never a loss And I think you will be able to catch up, Necron Warrior is looking good!

Cheers dude , ill get there again at the rate the necrons are going probably sooner than i think

Week 24 - Xenomorphs & Scarabs

This week i finished 12 Xenomorphs warriors



and 6 Necron scarab bois




Also I Built the Doom scythe including a canopy (just don’t like the look of the pilot normally)



And while i had some green stuff going i added some straps to my hero forge D&D character so he didn’t have a floating quiver.



Next milestone of 26 weeks on plan coming in 2 weeks at which point ill post another roundup

Starting points -129
Points earned: 58 (18 minis finished 2 built 2 sub assemblies)
Purchases: none
Total points: -71

Those aliens look fantastic, great work as always. The glow on the scarabs is a nice effect too. Solid progress towards getting in to the black again

Very nice xenomorphs! Are you playing them in the AvP tabletop/boardgame/as proxies or are they mostly for display?

Ta dude, Just for display at the moment (Prodos left a sour taste so won’t play the game) planning on doing a fan dex for 40k 9th Ed and chuckin* them into some RPGs

Necrons are looking great, and cracking pace (even with the purchase of Indomitus)!

I love that canopy on the Scythes. I got the same canopy for mine, and in my dreams if I ever get the Forgeworld bomber it fits so much better.

Thanks, yeah will defo fit in better with the bomber

Nice conversion work on the scythe and those xenomporhs look suitably terrifying. Keep up the good work!

Cheers Dude

Week 25 - Necron Lt & Warriors

late posting this week just don't seem to have time it :(

Another 5 new Necron warriors done, really liking the living dead vibe on the new models.



Necron Lieutenant done, got some gold on him cause he’s a fancy lad.




the gang all together



Starting points -71
Points earned: 21 ( 6 minis finished inc 1 character )
Purchases: none
Total points: -50

Quite a lot to do this week to hit my goals for week 26

Great execution of the classic Necron scheme, those glow effects are really sweet! The green molten bit on the skull on the Warden's base is a cool detail.

Great color scheme, the highlights really makes the difference and the glowing rip cages are ace!

Great paint jobs! Also I love the points system, I will be shamelessly stealing that if you don't mind? My hobby backlog has similarly gotten out of hand...
