**Asmodai**

Begun the process of updating my Imperial Guard army - mostly painted around 2004. Hitting the tanks with a wash to shade them and then doing some work on infantry bases.

**nobody**

Assembled my Cygnar Patrol Dog

**Point_Taken**

Transferred all my GW paint into dropper bottles.

**Rolsheen**

Stripping and repainting my Death Guard, while drooling over Necromunda

**Rygnan**

Working on some terrain for my Batman Miniatures board, mainly scatter and small stuff but also finishing off my first building. Making a few trash bags for on the scatter bases first and should finish the building and a stand of trees tonight

Playing with my new toy, Ultrasonic cleaner.
Put airbrush in it, its like new now.
Put models in, strips it like new
I even put old paint pots for the fun

How does using the Ultrasonic Cleaner work as a paint stripper? Do you have to use any chemicals first?

Went to the FLGS for a Bullgryn box, but it had been sent to the owner's other store. Instead bought and built a wyvern overnight so I could finally field a pure AM list at 2k points.

**Captain Brown**

Probably not going to get much done today due to no time. But did get items sent for a Swap Shop deal.

Cheers,

CB

Assembled bunch of custodians, worked more on the legs for HQ conversion(think I'll keep this. It won't be pretty and you can see it's my conversion but hopefully not too bad and pose makes it distinctive HQ model. Now just need to wait for remaining bits I need). Base coated new bases and cursed when I ran out of thinner and black. That sucks. Especially when you have 2 weeks delivery time for new...

**Desubot**

Going to start rusting up some mono bikes.

**tneva82**

This little guy is progressing. Blutack holding up so far. Head is provisional one until bitz order comes which also contains power fist for his left arm. I decided to swap arms so shield is on right arm, power fist(or the custodian version of it) on left. Left armed Custodian! Should help separate him from basic guys since I can't do anything really ambitious. Even this one is pushing my converting abilities below. This guy won't look too pretty if you look too close

**Captain Brown**

Continued painting my oop Wraithguard. Still have to do highlights, but they could be fielded as tabletop ready now.

Cheers,

CB

**Captain Brown**

More work on the highlights of the Wraithguard.

Cheers,

CB

**Elbows**

Painted up a stand-in Bonesinger and will put some paint on my 2nd Warpsmith later this evening.

Assembled and magnetized sponson for my second Rhino-Russ predator.

**Asmodai**

Finished rebasing my Guard and a Space Hulk Terminator. Started the red layers on two more Terminators.

**TheAuldGrump**

Helping a bunch of nine year old gamers learn how to paint miniatures.

I was expecting four - the kids in my Kids of War game - but instead.... nine. And one of them is not in any of my games.

Teaching them the Dip method - cheap craft paints and brushes, not our good hobby paints, and a can of Walnut for the dip.

Should give good enough results, quick enough, that I will be able to get 'em hooked.

*EDIT* Miniatures are Reaper Bones, mostly, but one girl is bringing in an ancient box of her father's single posed plastic Chaos Dwarfs - the miniatures are older than she is!

The Auld Grump

**Nick Ellingworth**

Sounds like a fun time Auld Grump, good to hear of younguns getting into the hobby with someone to teach and encourage them.

Tonight I am finally starting to work on the final Sanwar minis I bought from Ironclad Miniatures, the giant lizard cavalry. I think I've definitely saved the most fun minis to paint for last.

**tneva82**

Assembled sons of horus reavers(last sons of horus I have yet totally unstarted) and converted count-as adrasite spear for custodian out of spear and plasma gun. Oh and arranged for nearly certain purchase of chaos warhound...Whoops. Wasn't expecting to buy a titan this quick.

**ChargerIIC**

Accidentally fell asleep twice in a row. I swear I'm going to get this tank painted. Just as soon as I stay awake.

**Asmodai**

Playing a 1500 point league game, then working on Space Hulk Terminators.

**Captain Brown**

Sealed the 6 oop Wraithguard. Another unit completed.

Cheers,

CB

**Captain Brown**

Started on a unit of 5 metal Warp Spiders. I had a unit of 3 painted up years ago, but at some point I decided to trade them or sell them, so starting afresh.

Cheers,

CB

**leopard**

More on my 40k starter set marines, just the 2 junior officers still to do, well and a lot of green armour to highlight but I'm leaving that for now.

Also since thats coming to an end built the next batch so I can prime tomorrow and leave to cure while I paint those marines.

a box of work boyz and a truck...

whoever designed that truck model wants shooting

**4100xpb**

Woke my wife up at 11:30 at night trying to saw my own 50mm base out of some cheapo walmart craft wood.

**ced1106**

Posted a KoW tutorial for orclings! : https://boardgamegeek.com/article/27407707#27407707

**Gordy2000**

Finishing my Macrocarid Explorator (took much longer than expected)

Went with the high-gloss red look from the 30k Modelling Masterclass book

**Captain Brown**

More work on a unit of 5 metal Warp Spiders.

Cheers,

Got them done in time for the tourney this weekend and waargh'd my way to victory.

**tneva82**

Blue coat to remaining not-yet airbrushed blood angels. Planning how to build some terrain though will have to wait for next month. This month hobby budget well spent and some more.
