About three more bits and I will have the death guard built from the new starter box. Our game store was letting customers buy just the models for $100 (they would pull the hardcover rules out and give you the rest) so I have another full set still on sprue to build.

Well been painting sons of horus models a bit and assembled contemptator assault cannons and 3 scimitar jetbikes magnetizing everything so that I can swap out guns for bikes and arms for dreadnought at will. Have just CCW for dreadnought as alternative for now but will get more guns in future. But for bikes FW is friendly enough to provide every gun so from all meltas to all volkites to heavy bolters with one heavy gun for FA I can do it all!

Beautiful models too so can't wait to get them painted up.

Still working on Shadow War terrain - hoping to have it all done by Wednesday when I get my Dark Imperium box.

**GrimDork**

Made a quick pilgrimage to the not local gamestore yesterday to get index imperium 1. Been going through my marines and deciding what's good and what I want to use.

Looking to make up a list of 52 models to paint before allowing myself to pickup DI.

**ced1106**

More orcs!

Mantic Orcs Army with the Army Painter Greenskins paint set (and ochre Skeleton Bone).

Better pics when I base them and they don't topple over!

**Asmodai**

Finished the Shadow War terrain, now I'm prepping some heroic bases so they'll be ready when my Primaris Marines arrive.

**Elbows**

Goal: create and paint a Chaos Space Marine sorcerer.

**moodster95**

Organizing all of my DKOK bits since I now have the impetus to start getting my guard assembled and primed. Also need to see how my special weapons numbers are holding........

Anyone have any suggestions for a unit of conscripts that might fit with the DKOK range? One of the problems I am running into is that they are much smaller and proportional compared to the current guardsment line(cant wait to see them next to primaris marines) and most of the rest of the GW human line looks cartoonish next to them. Any advice for third party models that would fit as conscripts with the current DKOK? I definately cant afford to make a conscript squad or two from FW...

You could actually try to go old school and get the old metal Cadians.

**tneva82**

Just base spraying today most likely. Maybe assemble rhino for blood angels and wash the FW bits for second but house cleaning eats time.

**Leth**

Just ordered about 100 bucks in 3rd party bits to make my 30 noise marines......

Started getting my bases started by putting down the GW texture paint and then priming them. Gonna get the Rhinox Hide Can of Primer afterwards and then its two layers of dry brushing....Prepping like 300 bases so its gonna take a bit haha

**Desubot**

Shiny and chrome. that happened over the weekend.
did it with alcad 2 black chrome and it looks way cooler in person.

thinking going fluorescent red for the energy stuff.

oh also whipped out the light box for once to take a picture.

**Future War Cultist**

Assembled an Ironclad, then realised that it's too heavy for its base:

so I spent a long time trying to figure out what to do. Still not there.

**War Kitten**

I assembled the Primaris half of the Dark Imperium set. God I love these models

**Elbows**

Well, accomplished my goal - kitbashed a Chaos sorcere w/ jump pack...primed/painted/dipped...and will hopefully flat/base him later.

**ZergSmasher**

Assembling the models from Dark Imperium. They are pretty elaborate for monopose sculpts.

**Selym**

Basking in the first few days of enthusiasm I've had for 40k since 7e. And making 20 eldar guardians while waiting for my xenos 1 book

**Captain Brown**

Started some terrain for our gaming groups Sunday battles. Built some more Big Shootas for the Battlewagon.

Cheers,

CB

**ScootyPuffJunior**

When I get off work this morning I'm going to keep chugging away on my FoW mid-war British force:

I'd like to have it more or less done in time for game night on Thursday, so hopefully I can make some headway.

**Desubot**

Banana marines

gona paint the other colors today then maybe get highlights in

**EmberlordofFire8**

I built some Wraithguard and did, um... other stuff. I can't remember what.

**TheBigDeal**

Chipping away at my Shadow War terrain. truly awesome kits. I'm having a lot of fun. Can't wait to run some games on them.

**GrimDork**

I've mostly been considering lists for SM/DA though my dark eldar keep trying to tempt me.

Been going over my space marine bits to see just ejsr I can actually build.

**Elbows**

Out of nowhere I just sat down...assembled...primed...painted 10 cultists. I'll finish them and dip them later tonight, base/flat them tomorrow.

**nobody**

Finished painting my UCM Broadsword and 4 bases of Mortar teams.

Missed my window to prime my Longbows before the humidity rose too high.

**Captain Brown**

Painted the Big Shootas for my Battlewagon.

Started working on the solution to attaching old FW aircraft to the new plastic GW bases.

Cheers,

CB

I'm contemplating how I want to paint my Primaris from Dark Imperium. I don't really want to just paint them up as Ultramarines, as that sounds incredibly boring to me as I've been painting Ultramarines. Going through some other chapters and trying to decide which one I want to go for. I'm currently stuck between the Scythes of the Emperor and the Mantis Warriors. Both have ample reason to want Primaris in their ranks, it's just a matter of finding a good way to do the color schemes for either of them.

**Desubot**

Banana marine with 10% more red and black.

**Zach**

^ So the new guys have shoulders fixed, or are they separate from the torso?

Gotta build me some Eldar today, two of my least favorite kits at that. (Wraithguard and a Wraithknight)

**EmberlordofFire8**

Dude, I LOVE wraithguard!
