I've been painting hats. Tall hats, short hats, odd hats.

Primed 40 models.

Rebasing some 60mm bases

Once the post office delivers my package today, I'll have several different blue paints to test out to find The One that will make my new Ultramarines army look just right to me. High hopes for the Coat d'Arms Marine Blue.

Worked on four old metal Howling Banshees last night.

Cheers,

Been basecoating my dunecrawler.

Done! Well, might decide to hit it with matt varnish later.

After spending 2 weeks subbing japanese tv show got back to painting and finished these.

First 3 Dark Eldar lads, been sat unfinished for a few years since my last aborted attempt to get back into 40k. Pretty happy with them, except for getting the splinter cannon gunner's arms in the right position, anyone else have trouble with that?

Building a Universal Carrier from Bolt Action.

Learned a simple CAD program, drew up an ammo belt now trying to print it

Began work on a squadron of Grot tanks this afternoon

Started work on these and continued last 21 infantry for fs 2k list.

Been working on my Noctolith Necrons and discovered that they are not the same colour as my previous ones


Yay.

Built an official Ork Truck this evening for my Grot force.
Not at all impressed. Giant chunky overwrought ugly arse thing. I will definitely be mounting my grots in German 1/2tracks &/or 1/72 scale Universal Carriers*.

* (sadly the BA one from the other night proved a bit too small :()

I've started painting the magical hafling dog things.

Painting some passed out dwarfs to be waver tokens and some magical artefact tokens.
For Kings of War.

Finished 4 more Liberators! Had these guys since 1st Edition of the game and finally on my way of completing a 1000pt army that is now significantly more than 1000pts due to the new point costs 2 Editions on. I am soooo backed up on my paint pile.

I'm going to take a quick break from Stormcast to paint up some old Metal Skaven for WHFB 6th Edition Skirmish.

Priming gaunts in my parking garage

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Played ba vs de, assembled sloggoth and 3 stone trolls. Love these guys. 15 and not single duplicate and indeed even without heads think i would need to build like 60 before starting duplicates even without thinking about heads that multiply it like by 27.

Finished four old metal Howling Banshees.

Very nice work, Captain Brown!

I've been painting up more halfling cavalry, trying out different colors for dog coats

Seeing how little work I can do to see details on a miniature.

Tamiya Clear Smoke on *unprimed* grey plastic. Miniature is Jerry the Jello from Archon's Dungeons and Lasers line.

Finally got around to getting all the bits of army I've been buying, stripping, fixing and priming, then hiding in various parts of my house all together in one place. Bit of an eye opener, I'm not really sure how this got away from me to quite this extent! I am now going to have to try and sell half of it, as it's ridiculous. I need to delete the ebay app from my phone, I obviously cannot be trusted to be sensible.

Writing up a 2k pt Necron list for tomorrow.

With this list I aim to;
A) use stuff out of my case that hasn't seen much table time recently, (happens when there's almost 6k of stuff in the case). Time for the OG Immortals & Lord to come out & play.
B) show our new Tyranid player some stuff the other Necron players at the shop often shy away from.
Triarch Sralkers, Doomstaljers, assorted named characters, the Monolith.....

I don't know what sort of Necron list he's envisioning facing, but I'm willing to bet this definitely-not-meta-list isn't it....
Likewise I've no idea what flavor of Tyranid I'll encounter.

Built some goblins.

Today I'm hoping to paint my first Eldar in 20 years.

Made a statue of goblin hero.

You're not alone!
Looks like a nice collection of one army to me.
I wouldn't get more Stormcast though.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
15mm archers. Almost... there... just a few more.

I really dislike the current Ork truck.
So I converted my grots a new ride!

They get to motor about the table in a 1/35 Tamiya Universal Carrier Mk.II.
At 1/35th the crew crew & driver compartments are waaay to deep. (The gunners side worked fine)
So I just built up platforms for them to stand on from some card stock.

Painting & further orkifying to follow....
