Hey friends! Here, I'll be dropping some pics of my entries for the "1 Million Miniatures" challenge from GW (2025/2026), as I don't really have another thread to put this hodge-podge of different models. I initially pledged to paint 25 models, but as I am nearing that goal, I've decided to push myself and see if I can reach 50 till the end of May. While my cynical side knows all of this is just a marketing ploy by GW to sell us more plastic crack we don't need, I'll try to circumvent that pitfall by actually working on the backlog of old minis I already own. Ha, take that, marketing people!

Anyways, let's take a look at some pictures now. My first entries were these 5 pieces of the Aquila lander from the Battle for Macragge starter set from 2004:
