Sorry Para, I'm dropping out.

I'll post up the sneaky Ghosts when they're done, which will be soon, but my motivation is low and I don't feel like entering a rushed job.

On the plus side I'm beavering away on my machine for the next one, that will have to be finished (as will the Ghosts) for a tourney.

@Talys: I used to think that the Darkshroud was one of the silliest contraptions in the game...then I saw the rules in the new codex and my jaw dropped. I just had to get one. It was a good thing, too, as that thing helped me do better at a tournament. I'm not sure it "flies" exactly, more like it hovers ominously (at least that is what I imagine).

@Januine: Once again, you've created some masterpiece models. You should seriously think about Golden Demon competitions. If I could freehand paint half as good as you, I'd be a very happy man.

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

Here's my entry. Not up to everyone else's standards, but I achieved my aim to create a camouflaged Tau Stealth Suit:
Spoiler:


"He's Behind You!"

"Close-up of Ork"

"XV-25 Stealth Suit Front"

"XV-25 Stealth Suit Left"

"XV-25 Stealth Suit Right"

It was hard to take the photos to show the transition between camouflage and not, the light gauge on the camera was going mental. Hope you get the idea though.

Here's my entry this month. This is all I could get done - the deadline crept up on me. They are actually not completely finished, but oh well, they are complete enough to judge I think. I posed my Genestealers amid a new terrain piece I finished to distract from my shameful unfinished bases (don't judge me too harshly. I am clearly a commitaphobe - I haven't commited to a basing scheme for my Tyranid army yet).

Nice stealers there rollawaythestone. The 3rd pic- think you may have missed a mould line on the arm there. Nice job otherwise though

I don't doubt it. The Genestealers kit is really abysmal compared to the modern GW kits when it comes to production quality and mold lines. Although the sculpt still fits the modern Tyranid aesthetic.
