Just varnishing some craters now, then I'll base them and those will be done. Need to prime the heroic base pack and get a couple of them painted up for my Custodes Tribune and Primaris Captain.

After that, I've got a Baneblade to finish and a Vindicaire Assassin on my desk.

Basing up more Sons of Horus and undercoated Horus himself! I'll paint that up next. And now I have extra pressure to paint him well as Forge World sent me replacement head for the one I had lost(mega thanks) and in return customer service guy asked for pic of finished model.

GULP! Already was model I had been dreading to paint as it's the one that drew me to Sons of Horus! I don't want to do it badly!

Making excellent progress the last few days. Currently, I'm working on test models for my Custodes and Sisters of Silence. If I get those done, I'll probably get started on the terrain from the Shadow War box.

I'll finish assembling the three Reaver Jetbikes, my Succubus conversion and the last five Tau Pathfinders.

In the evening I will try and set up a small game with my Tau and Dark Eldar to get familiar with the 8th edition ruleset.

I just undercoated 15 marines... and then remembered you can't undercoat with GW sprays when the temperature climbs above 30º. Can I use alcohol to strip FW resin? Yes, these were FW minis.

Well, if the primer has stuck I do not see any reason to strip the models.

I use Simple Green or DOT 3 to remove paint from FW Resin EmberlordofFire8.

Applied the transfers and sealed the two Elysians.

Headed north to Janco Toys once more, first game with my New Kingdom Egyptians in Hail Caesar, they lost, but fun regardless.

Pre-ordered rulebook and Chaos index for 8th, gives me one usable army on launch - the Tyranids, IG and marine stuff can wait for the proper books

So, today I got my first tournament win! Not many players and we weren't playing super competitive armies (I think I may have brought a shotgun to a knife fight...), but hey? I also bought some used minis and preordered my 8th edition stuff from my FLGS. If I do anything else with the hobby today, it's going to be putting some gold paint on Guilliman.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/7/24, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~16000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Imperial Knights: ~2300 | Leagues of Votann: ~1300 | Tyranids: ~3400 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000 | Kruleboyz: ~3500 | Lumineth Realm-Lords: ~700

Making a Japanese Chi-Ri Tank Destroyer. Warlord Games sell a good few Japanese "paper panzers", but none of the heavy stuff unfortunately. The Chi-Ri was the Japanese equivalent to the Panther, though only one was built (which disappeared after it was sent off for inspection at Aberdeen). I'm making the planned casement mounted gun version.

Painting Sons of Horus like no tomorrow. Finishing up touches to 30 tactical marines and some heavy support guys and veterans(rest waiting for bases to be painted which I have also been working on). Finished 5 tartaros termies, started on HORUS and doing progress on 2 vindictor laser destroyer, sicaran and 2 contemptor dreadnought.

Multitasking? Yeah Keeps me sane in mass painting mode as I can switch between different models in different stages but still do large amount of similar task(all vehicles are progressing on same stage for example).
