Painting an Exorcist tank

Threw some paint on a Knight and cleaned and started assembly on a Heirophant Bio-Titan.

Giving this old guy a much need paint job. Only 10 years late!

He looks really nice!

Thanks, I've got the other FW one on the way, with the helmet that sits in the front. Figured I better get onto it.

Painting two Eldar Wave Serpent turrets and a Dire Avenger Exarch...cannot believe I am painting Eldar after a break of about 10 years with that army.

Also going to start the very long process of repairing my older painting logs and their sudden lack of images due to Photobuckets ransom.

Cheers,

Trying to figure out how the hell I'm supposed to make Wraithguard look... like models.

It doesn't help that my "Armour Colour" is matte black with red sections.

Yes, I consider WG to be "Armour" units.

Painting my first Blood Raven model.

Finishing off my last dark souls mini, the gargoyle. But now have consumed more wine than would be sensible to attempt further painting.

Also, in the greatest game of them all, have levelled up another year.

Risking my converted Wraithguard's life on a layer of Flesh Wash to bring some muted and musty colour to the otherwise featureless landscape that is matte black.

Hopefully it'll be alright in the morning...

Started the moving of images to Imger. More painting of the Dire Avengers (these are going to take a long, long time).

Cheers,

Building a Canoness.

Finishing building the Death Guard half of a second box.
Still debating on whether I'll plunge in with two sets of Primaris still on the sprue.

I undercoated my first few Eldar models, and I'll hopefully paint the Wraithlord today.

Today, I am beginning work on painting an Ironclad Dreadnought, assembling a Land Raider Crusader (it may become a Redeemer, depending on how my already assembled crusader performs), and also getting a 2000 point game in at the shop.

Today, I am thinking about writing up some custom narrative campaign stuff for my local AoS players to keep excitement up for AoS, since 40K has taken so much of everyone's attention.

Also, I am about ready to make a purchase on the couple of Hirst Arts molds I want to start casting with. So maybe I will order my first molds tonight or this weekend!

Painted up a bunch of green stuff bits,x10 Aquila Eagles,x5 Necron Scarabs,x5 Bike Hubcaps,x5 Water Bottles,x6 Krak Grenades,x6 Frag Grenades,about 20 Cables/Mechadendrites,add to that things being painted right now x5 holstered bolt pistols,x13 pouches of various types,will post them at some later date in my green stuff album,then later going to update my pirates CSG thread,while watching lost "again" lol

Edit:Raincheck on that thread update,there are 300+ pictures left to upload,that first.

Continued moving images to Imgur and repairing damaged images in one of my many PLOGs.

Primed my second and final batch of DG from the starter.
Primed and finished painting, decaling (everything but dull coating) a second-hand Leman Russ for my GSC.

Bought some some 40&25mm Bases,with which my last several sets of objective markers will be made,as well as some green stuff just in case I want to make more bits,and checking out the new warhammer stuff,think i might actually buy that first strike box due to its semi reasonable price.

Got my first 8th edition ITC tournament today. I'll be running Dark Angels with most of my Primaris marines. Probably not terribly competitive but hopefully it'll be fun.

House hunting...

but what has this to do with the hobby you ask? Well I'm hoping to finally get space for a gaming table, todays attempt which I hope I actually get provides an oversized garage which would allow two 6'x4' tables with space to put them together as a long or a wide table...

Also painting orks...

I'm currently magnetizing some stormbolters for my wolf guard and pack leaders since in 7th edition I didn't see any reason to take them but now they're a super cheap and helpful anti infantry tool and I need 8 pieces.

I have to convert some arms with chainswords, bolt pistols or boltguns (basically cutting them off) since in any SW kits there only are stormbolters for left hands, and I need a couple of them to be equipped in the right hand.

I'll probably convert a couple of frost swords in some right arms too for the same reason.

Going to try and find time tonight to paint Dire Avengers.

So what are you are all doing today for games like WH40k, WHFB and other war games? Me, I'm planning on making a Skaven army list and talking to my friend a bit more to try and convince him to purchase a dwarf army he's interested in, how about the rest of Dakka?

Looking at the painting I have to get done and procrastinating.

Wondering whether it makes any sense to varnish a Wraithguard model...

I don't to it to tanks because it's just too much, and I do it for infantry for shine and shade... But WG are in-between...

I am painting an ork in purple and gold, a noble ork.

Found UCM Praetorian Snipers and Resistance Occupation Veterans for criminally cheap on amazon so I ordered them.

Still cursing the fact that my state has continued to be a rain forest for last week and looks to remain one for the rest of this week as well, so I can't prime stuff to paint.

Did some work on a pair of my OOP FW Wave Serpents.
