Inc. WIP, completed projects and, I hope, the models in action back on table tops (after a gaming break other the past 3 editions).

CTA2024 - First and second vows in the Xeno Forum

Hi Folks,   After painting most of what I though I could in the Imperium forum, I added 2 almost "last minute" vows in the Xeno Forum: - 5 Incubis and their objective marker - for 5 or maybe 6 pts - the Yncarne   No surprise, these are a way to increase my Asuryanis though Ynnari faction play. See previous entry and probably some future ones too.   In both cases I aligned my scheme on the ones promoted on GW boxes. I am chronically lacking of creativity (t

Call to Arms 2024 - 2nd vow progress report

Hi Folks,   A very rapid update of my progress on my second vow. The Attaché and the plasma containers were completed earlier this month; the same with de Sydonian dragoons. All of these were all done in a quite a decent amount of time. But I am struggling a little bit more with the Serberys units. Yet, after a rainy WE, I've got some time to progress. Mounts are now all done for the Raider and the Sulphurhound units.     The cyberhorses were done exactly qs th

August hobby projects - a progress update for CTA & 12 Months of Hobby

Hi Folks,   As we reach mid of August soon: it is time to get an update on my pledges for both challenges. Shared pledges in fact, at least partially.   I indeed vowed for 12MoH 2 Ironstriders and 2 Plasma Generatorium while enlisting in CTA24 5as a second vow) the very same items plus - Serberys and 1 Attaché.   So how does it goes so far? I, of course, started by the stuff pledged for August in 12MoH. I am currently making some paint tests on the Generatorums but

Call to Arms 2024 - 1st vow complete

I Folks,   After a small break to recover my sanity after almost completed Pteraxii decided to take q shades bath (leading to a full stripping and repaint for 2 of these bat-cyborg-men) I finally completed my vow. It took me quite much time than usual in fact. But these Serberys and Pteraxii are really really requiring calm and concentration for... everything - from painting to assembly to detailling... The final result is OK, the models are gorgeous but it is definitively not a C

Call to Arms 2024 - 5th progress report

Hi folks,   I will not make it. My target of completing the last unots of my CTA24 first vow before end of week will not be achievable. Current temp rise and high humidity make any painting or modelling attempt catastrophical. paint dries on the brush and in the pot once opened, gets thick, crackle while drying...    Anyway, I have been able to complete the painting of the separated items of the Skitarii just before this hot summer time really appeared, so I have been le

Call to Arms 2024 - 4th progress report

Hi Folks,    It has been a busy week. I managed to progress quite a lot on my pledge, although it is not yet 100% completed.   At the moment I can had to the rooster the 3 Serberys and the Manipulus. The latter was supposed to be the last miniature to be painted but in the end it took over the Pteraxii.   The Raiders were configured in the standard tooling for a unit of 3: sticking to the manual. I have some others on their way and when I will expand the gang, the 3

Call to Arms 2024 - 3rd progress report

Hi Folks,    After 5 weeks of challenge, and a welcomed holiday break, I am back to the brushes since last week. these past 10 days I managed to have some progress, although less lighting fast than it isued to be last year at the same period in the previous challenge. But, hay, it is an endurance run afterall, and I may eventually boost up my productivity latter.   I started with the Serberys mounts. I have been excesively enthusiatic and I did not consider prepainting a

Joint Progress Report - CTA24 and 12 Months of Hobby

Hi Folks,   I had a dream, a dream where I could enlist different stuff for CTA24 and the 12 Months challenge. It will remain a dream. Time being what it is, a rare and limited ressource, I had no choice than enlist a comon entry for the 2 challenges in July. This common entry is the Negavolt Cultist unit (x 10), to be used as a proxy for Electropriests. I will call them Corpuscarii Zealots. They are designed as something inbetween the electrofists and the power staff, so, up

Call to Arms 2024 - 1st vow and progress report

Hi Folks,   CtA 2024 has been launch and it is time to set a first progress report.   For the moment, I decided to focus on my AdMech. This New Year New Army project started in 2023 still need to be strengthened. My first pledge is therefore oriented i order to egt some supporting troops that were missing on the rooster. The pledged models are:   1 Admech Patrol box inc. 1 Manipulus (5pts), 3 Serberis (6 points), 10 Skitarii (10 points) and 5 Pteraxii (5 points) -

KitBash Time! EngineSeer at work

After grabbing "accidentally" a GSC patrol box, on purpose to use the body to kitbash some IG regiment, I am potentially left with some bits inc. mining tools.  I then remembered this pic, unless I decided that GSC bodies would do better base for IG than Orlock gangers BECAUSE of this pic:     I am already the happy owner of enough Engineseers to fill all the slots in my AdMech army. And I have been left with one extra (remaining from a Patrol box), in desperate need for

The cost of 10th - One year later, where am I heading?

... Or almost one year later, what is the status of my "legalizing" effort to adapt my armies to 10th?   This used to be one of my first entries in this blog and I feel like it is worth setting a kind of progress report.   Remember, last year, after launch of 10th, the state of my armies was more or less: - AdMech (New Year / New Army 2023) - to be redesigned. - Eldars - requiring a big refresh.  - Death Watch, - claiming for love for the Veterans
