^Interesting! Assembling varied and multipart hard plastic kits is one of my favorite things about the hobby.

This. If I could sell an assembled model for more than it costs, I'd just do that by itself. No armies or game required.

Assembled and started doing some basic painting to a WE dreadnaught.

Last night I built a single eldar guardian, and put it int eh middle of my desk. it is now gone. GHOSTS!!!

Last day of my leave, finally organised my bitz box. Still have a bunch of cron sprues to snip out, will do those tonight around prepping the rest of my son's ghetto deathmarks.

what is your pattern? I see none!

Er...

top row: Necron weapons, necron bodies, necron accessories, flying stands, necron green sprue
2nd row: imperal weapons, arms, insignia, vehicle accessories, vehicle weapons
3rd row: lotr & fantasy bitz, general 40k accessories, tabards & banners, bodies & shoulderpads, misc aircraft bits, misc vehicle bits
4th row: poles and standards, building bitz, heads

works for me

oh I see now.
well I finished this today maybe (it might have been just before twelve last night or just after)

Assembled 10 Bane Knights. Metal. Scrap.

Just finished painting and dipping a flames of war vickers machine go team. Leave them 24-48 hours to dry and then I'll varnish and base them. Not gonna rush letting them dry because I don't want clouding to happen.

Lots of LotR today. 9 Ringwraiths in spectral form from BotFA, 5 Easterlings and a very angry Dain Ironfoot. Also working on some proposed rules for the Hobbit stuff GW has neglected to give us.

That's soem great progress para.

That lot will make 27 minis in four days. If I continue at this exact rate I'll have 2463 minis completed this year.


Yeah, right!

Maybe not 2463... but damn if it doesn't help you on your way to beating that 365 again... Sounds like I need to get myself some ghosts on the cheap from eBay

Building a FW Bombard that I got for Christmas from my good wife. Always liked this tank! I had an old ebay rescue Leman Russ to use for the track sides set aside for when I finally got one of these in my possession, today I've been ripping off the awfully glued on tracks and resetting them, dunno about you lot but the older Russ and Chimera kits were always a right pain to get the tracks all the way around without having the odd unsightly gap - a pet hate of mine, that and the use of polystyrene cement!

Still that's about 7% of your goal in 4 days.

damn it damn it damn it!
my fine line pen ran out of ink and there's no way I can get a new one for the next few days. I'll have to do something else in the mornings...like....jogging, or....star jumps?

Void Shield Genreator



Well, at least the start of one

Assembling 10 Blood Witch Raiders for my Cryx faction.

Current project is assembling a couple of Ogryns, magnets magnets everywhere.

Basing flames of war today.

@Jimsolo, heck I would do it at a loss (albeit not a terribly large one). Putting together models over the years has been one of my favorite things.

I've been getting more into painting lately, due to the feeling of accomplishment looking over my shelf of finished models.. But I still like putting together a good multipart kit.


Finished Esteban yesterday (save for dip/seal/base) and I'm working on a Marauder Commando today. I like the way their scheme looks when they're done... but I could have picked something less obnoxious to paint. It's all well and good when I can airbrush the red to a decent consistency out of the gate... but then I have to carefully avoid it while I cover most of the rest of the model in black =/ After this striketeam I'm through, probably will switch to a classic camo pattern with either leather/brown straps and gear or maybe grey...

painting a Bronzeback and Gladiator to finish off a local commission.

Painting a few of my remaining mars attacks martians before heading off down my FLGS to say a post-new year hello to everyone.

Hate waiting for stuff to dry

Yeah waiting sucks.

I still intend to finish that Marauder but now I've got some hard plastic deadzone enforcers and forge guard to 'unbox', may take my time assembling them though as they're prime candidates for magnets..

Wondering how long I wait for a package that the USPS tracking system hasn't heard from in a week, which was supposed to have arrived 5 days ago, before trying to contact somebody.

Assembled a Seether, Cryx heavy Warjack.
It's a metal model. Adding the spiky bits is a pain.

Building my Treekin (out of old jungle trees...cause why not)

I think that Penny from Inspector Gadget may be one of your creepier avatars

I'm either gonna paint some Mars Attacks minis to use in Pulp Alley, or I'm gonna ball-socket magnetize some Enforcers.

it's what I do.
Next is ... I think Nurse Lakumi (a doll with the most humanesque eyes I have ever seen)
I do have to sew a button on the back of it, should get on that.
