Built 5 more 13th NuEarther models to replace the Cadian ones. One of the local TO is going to force everything with a cadian helmet to take the cadian doctrine, so it was a good time to start the conversion process.

Continued to work on my OOP Wave Serpent, did a top-side sealing to dull down the shine of the newer paint to try and make it the same as my first two painted a decade ago.

"Dipped" my final third Rhino-Russ...cut out and cleaned my Fire Prism (using an old Falcon model instead + bits). Then it started raining really hard...so there goes my plan of priming and starting on it.

Looking at the corrupted doctor acolytes from The Others sat on my painting table and thinking I cannot be arsed to do anything with them this evening. Sometime you just want to sit down, drink tea and shoot robot dinosaurs in the kidneys with fire arrows.

Last night worked on bases, bit more on justicaerin, assembled 2 blood angel rhino(minus tracks I paint separately) and predator up to point I need to start putting in resin pieces that are still in process of either being cleaned or drying up and did first attempts to paint blood angel armour with preshading technique. Not 100% sold yet but I think issue was too little white plus careless with airbrush usage leaving dots here and there(forgot to turn off paint flow before cutting airflow and then started next go pointing toward model).
Today less time but hoping to work on assembling predator and paint some more blood angels and continue with bases. Slow and steady. Getting home between 7-8pm puts dent on hobby time. Especially airbrush that I don't want to do that late due to noise issues.

Got whole bunch of bases advanced to various stages. Assembled the predator minus tracks I'll glue later once basic colours and tracks are painted. Put on first coat for the two rhino's plus bucket of MKIII and MKIV marines for blood angels and couple terminators. Not too bad result seeing I had less than usual time to do due to going to donate japanese study books.
edit: Also assembled two leaders for the blood angels. Terminator captain was built as is but the power armour one got kitbashed to have MKIII helmet(personal habit for him to use MKIII helmet with MKIV armour!) and not one but TWO close combat weapons! Power sword/paragon blade(depending on do I have points to spare) plus thunder hammer. Not most effective options but I like the look

55 bases got all the stuff I glue to them before painting. Just need to sand off bit and they are ready for painting. Also painted 2nd layer for bunch of blood angels and did undercoat for predator and more blood angels. Plus 3 layers out of 4 for cloaks for the HQ(I do these first before painting armour as I figure cloaks are easier to cover for airbrushing armour than otherway around. Maybe mistake).
Busy day especially as I had limited time due to train cancelled resulting in bus which left off later than train would have and was lot slower to boot.

Continued working on the alternate turrets I have for my OOP Wave Serpents. Corrected some errors on the third one I have almost finished. Since I just got some Eldar water slide transfers any suggestions on where they should go on the models?

Built the Taurox.At this point the only thing in the Militarum Tempestus Start Collecting box that isn't a spawn from hobby hell is the thrice damned commisar.
Have Bullgryns arriving (hopefully) today so I'll be quick assembling those with the Slab shields and some nice mauls.

I have 11 models left to paint and I am all caught up.
Those 11 are zombicide black plague zombies from the core set.
I hate painting them 
My next buys will likely be OGRE miniatures set 1 and the new Necromunda release.
