Painting a Forgefiend for my Chaos Space Marines.

How was that kit to put together? It seemed like a major pain in the arse more than anything.

Tonight, I'll probably be cleaning up my hobby hole. I need to get some priorities straight in terms of what I have and what I need to do... Also throw some models into simple green because I think my primer fethed them up (paint is beading up like sweat on a well oiled lifeguard).

trying to figure out how I should go about customizing my Thunder wolves, the stock figures are nice, but I want something a bit more individual.
beside that I am planning to put the last few touches on my RUne priest and perhaps one of the Contemptor Dreads I have standing around waiting to be finished

The kit went together very easy, but I fethed up the neck. I have it looking too high, and it interferes with the "back armor" that goes on top. Things you learn.

I'm finishing up an Iron Snakes tactical squad, just a little work to go on the bases. The Snakes shoulder insignia's I got from BoLS look ok. Ran out of transfer paper so the tactical arrows will have to wait.

Finally got round to taking some photos of my German Grenadierkompanie, Tiger tank and other assorted bits and pieces completed.

Also, thanks to some prompting have added a link to my blog in my signature! Please feel free to click, C&C very welcome.

Painting eldars for a friend... A wraithknight and two hemlocks.. for free .

Tonight i'll be continuing to basecoat my Tau. Maybe prime some kroot and some kitbashed death cult assassins.

The ships are in drydock getting a new paintjob

Bleeding. Drinking while gaming is fun and amusing. Drinking while removing plastic mold lines is less of a good idea.

Assembled a ravager for my DE.

Will be sorting my DE bitz box tonight.

You are still bleeding? If you are trimming plastic models, where in the world is your superglue? If you are *still* bleeding, you had better take care of that business army style

Putting an Avenger together. One of 3 I ordered before the Sisters Codex came out....Sigh...I can still use them with my Elysian Army.

Yesterday I flocked all of the enforcers I had painted already, today I'm flocking my suppression team of them. Will put me at 22 painted and based by the end of tonight.

Sounds like you are making some headway But didn't you say you had 70 or 90 or something before deadzone? Oh well, 22 less than that now

Haha. Too true. I have 2 5-man strike teams done: one with a blast rifle and assault blade, one with a missile launcher and energy gauntlet; one assault squad with a flamer; a suppression squad with 4 missile launchers and 2 Enforcer Captains done. Except the final color on one suppression model and his base.

That's a fair force already of enforcers You will have to loan your opponents Enforcer allies just to use even a modest portion of your eventual super human horde Maybe not though, warpath 3.0 is supposedly going to have 100 models on a side, or what 50 enforcers :p

Trying to finish magnetizing my Predator and finish his paintjob, anyone got tips on what tool to use to get the magnet holes right? I have a dremmel tool I can use but I dont wana go at it all willy nilly till I can be sure it will do the job right.

I'll post pics in the Mantic subsection, Grimdork. Might give you an idea where to cut the arms to put the energy gauntlets on without looking abnormal when your enforcers come in. No greenstuff necessary, they look like the gauntlets are naturally on the model.

And I do hope a game of Warpath lets me field all my enforcers. I might have to lend an opponent all 200 or so of my marauders when that happens (including Deadzone marauders).

I'm trying to trim down my Wyches, so if you need to talk about swapping DE bitz, feel free to give me a holla!

I'm trying to bling out my models a bit, but we get a bit spoiled for choice with the gorgeous DE sprues. I just went for basic assembly, and now I'm going back through to finish them up before painting.

Might drop you a line when i figure out what i actually have

Busy with a metal nurgle daemon prince.

Making around 60 Salamander Marines out of 60 Blood Angels Marines with Death Company bitz on them.

Tonight I will be painting some guardsmen for my allies to my BA army. Also, probably gonna try to work on some Chaos hounds I've built but haven't done anything else to. I need to at least get them primed I suppose.

Just finished clear coating my first squad of tactical marines.

Have to take a break from painting 40k to paint more 28mm samurai for Ronin. Need 2 mounted guys and at least 1 foot with katana to give my lists more teeth. Using Perrys and figuring a way for those mounted samurai to look like hatamoto with a minimum on extra bits. Where there's a will there's a way.

The fiend kits seem easy to assemble from what I've heard.

OT: I will be using my new deathwing box set to make some DWKs in Cataphractii armour.

As I mentioned earlier, the kit is easy to assemble, but I modeled the neck too upright and it now interferes with the armor back plate.

Nice!

Planning a tabletop surface to put over my billiards table to wargame on.

Basecoating 5 GK strikes, 5 Paladins, and a Dreadknight.

Priming my wall of martyrs kits.

Stripping the paint off a boat load of Warmaster Dwarves.

Just finished my Contemtor dread for my SW and also got my last Rune Priest done. I am now entering a loong break from painting power armour,
