Well sorry about not being told your place in the competition that really sucks (and I can completley understand why that'd get under your skin)

As for the vote I prefer the closed coat, but that is just because I think the open coat looks a bit meh in general.

Thanks Rhivan. I did end up going with the closed coat, I've been really busy lately so haven't gotten a chance to paint but tomorrow I've put aside some time to get some done.

Didn't get nearly as much done today on the Primaris Psyker as I was hoping, had a late start then some life problems cropped up. Oh well some progress is still better than no progress I suppose.

Looking good, dont know if the jacket is done yet but it looks great.

Life. Always getting in the way of living it. But small progress is still progress.

Psyker looks good so far.

Thanks Yorkright and youwashock. The coat isn't done but it's coming along nicely I think. Got a long ways to go with it though as I want to freehand the scholastic psykana symbol on it.

Freehand would look awesome if you feel you are up to it.

Ooh nice freehanded insignia would be damn cool

That sounds crazy.

I really really hope you do it.

Freehand symbol is happening for sure, I'll find a way to make it happen. Time is a luxury at the moment what with running a new business and all so progress is glacial, will update as soon as I get some more brush-time in.

My project focus has gone to lately so instead of what was supposed to be an update on the psyker I instead bring to you an update on the raider I said I wasn't going to finish... Still a ways to go on it but at least the tedious edge highlighting is done.

That sail is a fantastic bit of work.

The Raider is table top ready right now, and you have just started.

Cheers,

CB

Thank you Yorkright and Captain Brown. I'll be out of town for a couple days so no progress will happen until Monday night at the earliest.

Fresh ride. Wouldn't worry about shifting focus around. You're getting good results. Need to get a shot of all the skimmers together when this one is done.

Spare time has been a rare commodity as of late but I managed to finally finish the third Raider. I'll get some proper photos done up later along with the other two.

Nice to see you still painting away. Raider looks good, does need better photos though. It took me 3 tries to spot the sail. But that might be the lack of sleep/coffee talking.

Any big plans for 2018?

Looks Cool man!

I continue to be mad jealous of your Raiders, man.

Better pictures will hopefully be up tonight Nev, I too have great difficulty functioning without my daily ration of coffee. The plan for 2018 is to paint up a Scion army, possibly even as an AoP entry. I've started it but I'll do a proper write up and some photos of the current state of it with lists probably next month once I assemble a few last bits.

Thank you very much STG, glad you like it.

Thank you goblinpaladin, it's good to know they don't fail to impress.

Looking awesome. Bring on the better pics (and a group shot nudgenudge).

Very nice Raider Inevitable_Faith.

Cheers,

CB

Your freehand work is just amazing! Very jealous.

As promised youwashock here are the proper pics, hope they were worth the wait.

Thank you very much CB.

JeffyP I'll gladly trade you some of my painting skills in return for your creativity and conversion skills, your exodites have me in awe.

Here are the proper photos, hopefully they turned out well, I haven't checked them before uploading tonight as I gotta get to bed for work tomorrow.

Childlike glee.

They look really good.

Nice looking batch of boats you have there. Any chance of getting them to the table to pillage something?

Beautiful boats Faith

This is the content for which I came.

Thank you very much Youwashock, Nevelon, Yorkright and goblinpaladin. In fact Nev I did manage to get a game in just tonight with my DE. I've mostly been playing scions but with a third Raider I figured it was worth a shot runnin the girls again. My list was as follows:

HQ: Succubus (Warlord with eternal hatred) Deployed using webway portal stratagem

Troops: 10 Wyches w/ Hydra gauntlets, blast pistol and agoniser
Troops: 10 Wyches w/ Razorflails, blast pistol and agoniser

Elite: 10 Bloodbrides with Blast pistol, agoniser and phantasm

Fast: 5 Scourges w/ 4 dark lances splinter pistol and agoniser

Transports: 3 raiders with disintegrator cannons for all three wych cult units.

The match was three objectives placed essentially in a line down the middle of the board. My opponent was a Dark Angels player. You get 1 VP for holding an obj at the end of your turn and 3 VP instead if you held it the previous turn too. Player who builds up the most VP by the end of turn 5 wins. My opponent went for an early lead by capping all three objectives and attempting to hold them for consecutive turns, my strategy was to throw wyches and bloodbrides at him until he realizes that his traitor legion isn't welcome here. In short it worked. Bloodbrides took out his unit of SS and thunderhammer termies while the rest of my force rolled over his on the objectives like some massive drug fueled tidal wave. Point of note: thunder hammers do a very underwhelming amount of damage vs my wyches 4++. Succubus charged his librarian, failed to kill him in one round of combat but then proceeded to finish the job in the next shooting phase with her blast pistol. I like to think it was done in a one-woman recreation of the boondock saints type of way. He held out strong at first, snagging a good 15-1 lead. Things went downhill fast around turn three though as Power from Pain started stacking good for me and he got all but some scouts locked in CC with the Wyches and raiders neutering his firepower. Final score was 22 to 15 by the bottom of the 5th round and he had nothing but his scouts left. I had some damage on a couple wych squads and one dead raider but my force was still quite strong. Looks like I'm getting more slaves for the gladiator pits tonight!

Heheh, traitor legion. Nice work. Especially showing off what Wyches can do.
