In the past 7ish days I started a small collection of Raven Guard. Almost have a tac squad built all with beakies, will be pinning their feet for some resin bases I want to buy. Started removing mold lines and bits of sprue from 5 used assault marines all with beaks that I got from my brother in trade for some other marines. Also have been working on my first drop pod. I have the interior painted and started work on the outside.
As for today I am going to do some price searching. I want to finish this small collection with a storm talon, 5 assualt termies, Shrike and 3 scout bikes. I really want to find an oop metal Shrike, so this is where my searching will begin.

I've been doing some painting tonight. I decided to go for something different as a break from painting my UCM Starter set.
And I've got a little game for you, before my long overdue bed.
I'm painting my UCM Navy and Special Forces models through a different inspiration and this is me partway through testing out my colour scheme for it.
Have a guess at the inspiration!

The Snotling army, just gotta build the Night Goblin Archers, 50 of them... and by build I mean but them on a base.
I'd also like to make a hand mold for the doll-club and perhaps begin on "Imperial Knight Zoey"

Just working on my fortified wall for the LoER contest.
Basically a Stormraven crashed into a mountain next to a ruined manufactorum/mining operation, and the Space Marines dismantled everything that their techmarines couldn't restore, from their chapter, the mechanics, and other chapters. *cough fists* What it gave birth to is known as the bulwark. Edit: Also ignore the Rhino that is intact, my workspace is cramped and the mat makes the table look bigger than it is. (The mat hangs off by like half...) so I couldn't find anywhere to put it. Also the Stormraven tail is facing the wrong way, naturally speaking from a crash point of view the end should be in the dirt, and the area where it snapped off being pointing towards the main body of the crash.
Oh and don't tell my Pm follows or the Loer guys! I have so much work before I can prime it and that is when I want to give a first look at this for people, and I'm saving my tiny projects for a big update.

I finally painted the last three mummies in my Khemri Blood Bowl team. Three years in the making/painting and now they are ready for the pitch!
A three year turn around time for a small hobby project isn't too shabby for me.

Nothing wrong with taking your time! Worse thing is you might lose some popularity but, it is good to see it through. I left dakka for a year due to military and boom, they were there when I got back.

Formulating a plan to develop a smallish Space Marine force that doesn't follow the Angry Marines or Movie Marines schemes, but at the same time takes a lot of crazily geared up elite space marines and fails gloriously on the tabletop while looking more badass than it has a right to. I shall call them... Blatantly Over The Top Obnoxious Marine s I think the list I'm prototyping only has 20-25 dudes in power armor, some scouts, a handful of speeders, and maybe a chibitalon (cause they're adorable!) at 2000 points. It will fail horribly to win games while achieving me countless moral victories and earning major style points at every turn Plus I think they're gonna be hazard orange, tall scaled, and posed an inch away from being in Angry Marines territory. In your face style.

Working on a complete mixed bag of hobby ADHD-oh-shiny! Currently on the paint desk is a Damned Legionnaire, a Sanguinary Guard, Aragorn twice, and after I've had a cuppa, I intend to add a couple more LotR minis and possibly some more BA.

Celestial fulcrum (soooo looking forward to painting this one...)
Megalith
Shifting stones x 2 + attachment
Guardian stone + evil stick men

Not the most amazing army in play, but i'm in love with the look
Bradigus Thorle is on my christmas list.
I also have a few part-finished 40k projects to finish off on the painting bench, but they are on pause for the right now..

After school, planning to play a game of X-Wing with a friend I am trying to get into the tabletop scene. Debating if I want to keep it Imperial vs. Rebel in a small points game or if he does not mind if I use my TIE Phantoms or Interceptors since we have played a couple games before. Then when I get home, paint some more of my Bronzeback.

Just finished my first platoon of German infantry for Flames of War: Great War.
By raiding an extra soldier here and there from the starter box for the Germans I was also able to make a full Stoss platoon for free (saved me $25).
All I have left to paint for this is another infantry platoon, an MG platoon, an infantry gun platoon and the A7V tank pair. Saving the tanks as a reward for painting up all the grunts.

Stripping paint off some old RT model Rhinos. I hope LA awesome works as well as Dakka members say. It caught my eye randomly as I passed by and I was like "wait, don't people on Dakka swear by that stuff?" So I grabbed two jugs of it.
Sadly the reason I was at the dollar store wasn't fulfilled, I was looking for plasticard for my Stormtalon scratchbuild. (Don't trespass signs, etc.)

Starting to work on the first honor guard that will be accompanying my calgar equivalent. Going to capitalize on the fact that they have bolters and try for a over the top style shooting pose while drawing his relic blade. We'll see.
