That maulerfiend is straight up fantastic, good work

Painted Warwitch Siren and Saxon Orrik.

Today I has mostly been finishing my Mars Attacks ruined buildings.



I really like modelmates brick joint filler.

Working on my Chaos Lord of Tzeentch riding a Disc of Tzeentch and equipped with the Burning Brand counts as.



I had a third of a land speeder and had to do something with it .

Still got a bit more detailing work to do, but it is getting there!

been painting some space hulk genestealers according to the instructions on a tale of painters and they're looking great so far.

also got a cultist squad on the go with some conversions i'm really proud of but i'm not a good enough painter to really make it look like i want it too.

finally i'm part way through a converted space marine captain standing triumphant on a downed crisis suit. it's the first time i've ever done anything like this and it looks like it. still, next one will be better!

Neat chaos thing

So what did you do Larva, paint the bricks red and then work the filler into the joins? It's a bit striking but I think it works pretty well.

It's less striking under normal lighting. The flash is a bit harsh on the white.

Like all of modelmates' weathering dyes the brick joint filler remains water soluble (so they need sealing on with a varnish top coat). I sprayed them with red car primer and then pretty much whitewashed them with the white joint filler. Give it half an hour to dry then use a wet cloth or tissue and wipe across the brick surface to remove everything that wasn't in the crevices. It's tragically easy.

That's more or less what I was expecting, sounds pretty cool.

Building a plague-infested tower for Deadzone. Already have one and adding a second one.

Just finished painting my Lancer. Feels good, man.

I just have pStryker, a Journeyman Warcaster, a Hunter, and the Black 13th left.

Privateer4hire screenshot or it didn't happen! But seriously, I'd be interested to know what you did to plague up your buildings

I painted a dang old cabin with a dang old thatched roof. Can't get the roof looking right, though. It looks... flat? Lacking in depth. Something like that.

Just use gorilla glue on every join. It oozes out and then you paint it sufficiently plague color.

Oh lol. Ezmode. I would probably use hotglue cause I like it, but same difference really.

working on the necrons

Had some girls come over to strip for me:










































I had a big vat of Simple Green with about 16 tanks and various Tyranids, Lizardmen, other random stuff soaking for about 8 months now. I wanted them prepared for Winter so I had plenty of projects to work on, and so I called them up! They owed me favors from all the times I've fixed their computers/electronics over the years. We had a lot of fun! Ordered pizza, watched some movies they wanted to see, and I gave some shoulder and neck massages when they requested them! Ha ha!

edit - Forgive the mess in the background. My hobby room is full of my supplies, collectibles, books, and other trinkets/electronics. Also, those black and silver cases, as well as the boxes they are stacked on top of in the background are stuffed full of Warhammer still needing assembly/processing/painting. My backlog is yeeeears long.

I also had my girlfriend do some other tedious stuff. It's funny how people are so enthusiastic to do something their first time around. PAINT MY RIVETS, YOU!:

Lol fun!

I did some weathering on my little diorama piece, need to find some good thematic posters, signs, and maybe magazines for litter.

Well, I had a fun game with my Cyriss vs. Cryx today.
And I bought the new WD as usual.

Night Goblins, strange to do a non scary doll thing

Putting together some metal Incubi.

I sprayed some sherman tanks with plastic soldier company british armour spray. Makes life a lot easier it has to be said. Nice flat even coat to work from

@Jim, the cool metal incubi with trenchcoat-vests? Or regular metal incubi with *real* weapons like punishers instead of these newfangled "klaives".

Spray on basecoats are always nice

I got 5 mars attacks human soldiers dipped today, just gotta spray seal them and they'll be good to go. I also started on a halo themed shirt for my nephew's x-mas present. Packing up some space marines now to hopefully play a game a little later on, we'll see.

Yeah I'm taking the same approach for my infantry too. I sadly don't feel up to painting all that often so I wanted something I can make quick progress on and knock out a large amount of models in a short time. Samurai I love but they take me forever to do. 15mm seems ww2 seems far more forgiving.

I'm assembling 1500 points of Tyranids ASAP. I'm 45 gaunts through The Swarm box, need a new neck

I was the Christmas party today, which meant I happened to be in town on a weekday, while shops were open.

Mistakes were made.

Lol, klaives.

Today, just got a Treeman kit, now I'm trying to decide what to build it as.

Painting my Skaven Warlord riding on his warpstone enhanced Beast of Caerbannog.

Finally finished one arm from my Woldwrath.

This model is taking forever...

On to the next arm.

Also painting a pair of Woldwardens when i get tired of the big guy..

Well goshdarnit now I want to look into that star trek space game if you can have the whole freaking DS9 as a unit

Played 40k. My space marines took a shameful loss to orks who were much better at holding the objectives.

I have finally finished painting my very first Terminator. It was a good test-piece and I'm eager to paint the remaining 4.

Today the hobby will most likely be just assembling a box of Devastators and not much else.
