Now on holiday, and this year we aren’t going anywhere! So to have half a chance of actually finishing an entry, I’d better get a shuffle on!
Progress! Got the blue sides done of the main squad, and the captain primed. 4 of the 5 bases also have their toppers sorted. My GS is the nastiest I’ve ever used. The yellow sides done has partly cured so indeed to pick hardened chunks of yellow out of the mixed material, so the base toppers are a bit grungy, but they will mostly be black anyway.

I live! (Some pretty crappy weather, moderate traffic. I’ve had worse drives, but also a lot better)
Next month’s poll is up. Keep up the good work! The end of December always races up. If you need an extension, let me know.
Happy solstice. Nights get shorter from here on out. Unless you are on the flip side, in which case it’s all darkness. Which according to the fuzzy Void I live with, is a good thing.

Been doing something very different this month.
Here's the proof.
I'm creating a "snow globe" using this Reaper miniature as a gift for a couple whom are close friend of mine and the missus.
Been thinking of this idea for a long while, but after seeing Gabi's entry in Golden Demon (Adepta Sororitas Dialogus in a watery globe) , I was inspired and had to get to it!
Here's where I am now. The model is pretty much painted, but the scary part is still ahead of me.

Looking good, Ezki. Beautiful colours. Good luck with the fun part!
I'm joining late with some tonks that I built a while back and have just been gathering dust on the shelf.
I'm gonna start with the cow tank hidden in the back - but who knows, maybe I'll get a burst of holiday energy and get a few more over the line.
Happy hobbying in the last week or so everyone!

Oh man… I thought that was an autocorrect off a Grot tank, but no. It is indeed a tank running on cow power

Fast then you’d think. It can really moooooove.

Well, went a bit nuts, got both teams painted...
So I guess I just need to narrow it down to 5 now... Automatically Appended Next Post: Of course, I could paint the elf referee, with his naughty list...

Great work on those nids, Piousservant - red really popping. Is that an old school ravener on the right? Nice find!
That's some very impressive productivity inmygravenimage - well done. For your 5, maybe a little vignette of the ball in play between the two sides?
I've made (mooed) some progress too, with some base coats (cowts) and washes and a bit of messy (moossy) drybrushing. I'm pretty confident (cownfident) I'll get these three done before New Years ( Moo Years) - just need another hour or two - I'm not paying too much attention to detail and the grunginess kinda (cownda) plays into the whole TONKS aesthetic. Happy with this output in amongst the chaos (cowos) of the last few days ( moo days)!
Keep it up crew - happy painting!

@tzurk - those are delightfully bonkers! And, thanks, you're a troublemaker aren't you?
So, maybe... Automatically Appended Next Post: Oops...
Yes he's making a list, checking it twice...
... and YOU'RE on the Naughty List!
