Overview

I've made out my mind: I will add another entry this month under the form of a Nemesis Claw unit (Battleline): The 2 test models I ve made from these guies convinced me to go further - and as I will be "bachelor-like" half of the week, I will have night painting sessions available:

Good morning all, It has been a rainy WE and I have had time for hobbying: One game, One unit painted and One piece of scenery done (even if if is TOW) The unit painted is the Battle line Hybrid for the GSC I do not play... So, 1 Rank &File stamp on the Bingo card: Now the dilemna: to paint (more) or not to paint? CtA26 is coming, so part of my backlog will be set on hold for 4/5 weeks or so until the challenge starts. In the meantime, there are 10 days left in May and I can use them for one additionnal entry. Being a CSM battleline unit and as I do not have more, it is not that critical if I do commit the paint job out of the CtA calendar. I am a point chaser but not that a point chaser. I have already started doing some tests for colour. Will I transform it into a full paint job? I have to think about it overnight.

I have kept on working on my card with some extra stuff for may: Dark Reapers and Yriel. I have just noticed I did not post the pic of unpainted models, but they can be found here: Results (1 x Elite and 1 x Leader) : As may isn't finished yet, I will extend my pledges with 5 GSC models (1 x Rank & File): Let's go to the work bench for these lads that have been undercoated something like 18 months ago... For the moment my card is therefore (as long as GSC remains unpainted:

Forgot to update here for April, 1x Plague Champion, and here's my current Painting Bingo card, no updates to the Gaming Bingo card,

And the Servohaulers are done: Count as a "Machine" in the card: That's it for April. I have primed some Aeldarii yesterday and I am still procrastinating about the AdMech units I have to paint. In the meantime, back to ToW with some fellwater trolls and dwarves (my first attempt with 3D printed 3rd party miniatures)

Update: Proxi Inquisitor finished and pics of the Servohaulers sprues. And here is my BIngo Card so far now:

While decals are drying on my last model, I have decided I will add servohaulers has another pledge for April. Count as « Machines »

Some progress with the first 2 Characters pledged for this month Next will be the proxy Inquisitor. It is already very well advanced. As usual, I will update the follow up of the Bingo card once everything done.

Only the base rim was completed in April, so I'm claiming this one for March if that's acceptable,

April is coming, and while I have some scenery on the bench, it is essentially that, sceney. And as I filled the "Paint something" category already, it will be mainly off challenge. Yet I have these 3 characters: The Visarch, Eldrad and an old Cypher. The latter lost his backpack and left arm, so I completed the model with bits from here or there and he will be a perfect robed Inquisitor for my Imperial Agent allies. Thes will be my pledges for 2 "Leader" and 1 "Psyker" entries. Shall I have time I might then may add something later in the month... I still ahve this sprue of Serberys Sulfurhounds left on my desk for a quarter now. It may deserve some attention sooner or later.

Thanks @Bouargh! With insomnia if I can't sleep I paint, which I've found from doing the bingo results in painting throughput You're making some cracking progress too!

This last WL is very characterful.... And your card is filling so fast you might already decide doing a second one afetr all of that!

A bit of a slower month so far, but the wave serpent is now complete. Not totally sold on the white on the turret but it was such a pain to paint I'm not particularly inclined to change it: I didn't take a WIP photo for this guy so he's not eligible for point, but I was pretty happy with it so I'll pop it in here anyway: Bingo card updated in the original post as always. Next up I picked up an incomplete set of models from the Assault on Black Reach box set, with a view to getting an Ork army started:

Hi all, I have now completed the last unit I have pledged for march. 5 Wraithblades. I have chosen a "reversed" color scheme: I found it very inspiring when I first saw it on someone's else Wratilord. It is not that bad here and echoes a Night vs. Day concept I have used on my Waveserpents previously. More in my blog latter. This makes my rooster card with one completed line now! I will now shift to ToW wolfriders. In parallel I have primed the Serberys riders sprues. I might eventually start them this month as a second contribution for my "March for Mars" Blog entries.

EDIT: Ooops: I posted it in the wrong topic... Sorry to have canibalized your work @ggergnayr...

I’ve got primer and some blocking on the Traitor Bros, and after my first bit swap day at the local WH store, I put a plan in motion. I’ve had the intro set infernus marines for a while doing absolutely nothing and I decided to bash and smash them into some red corsairs and a reave captain for my Sons of Mammon (now fully a CSM army instead of the originally planned CK army). Behold, some real slammed together dudes. Pretty sure one of those arms old as hell based on size.

And here comes Ostromandeus and his Stentor vox servitor: More here:

And here comes the Arcuitor magisterium. In all its martian glory. Soon it will be joined by another inquisitorial character, with Ostromondeus (almost complete), though I will not use him as a named character but rather as a mundane inquisitor for my Ordo minoris travelling along my AdMech... 2 supervisors are better than one when it deals with keeping an eye on exploration fleet in search of arcane technologies...

Next pledges will be characters/Elites/Waystone zombies: Ostomondeus retinue as a Leader, The arcuitor Magisterium as an Elite (at least this is how it was listed in HH 2.0) and Wraithblades as Undead / supernatural stuff.

Thank you, I had a lot leftover after the War Dogs and had fun figuring out how to tie them together.

Looking good! I especially like those traitor guard, that banner is particularly inspired.

Slow and unsteady work over here! Had a massive home project surprise us. Completed War Dogs and a just assembled, pre-primer Brood Brothers done as a Traitor Guard squad. Pretty happy with the new banner for the Iconward. The plan is to paint them up like the War Dogs for a little renegade CSM band outside of KT.

After two solid sessions, a new Imperial Fists Captain is born,

Jetbikes complete! I went with black for the front cone things because orange is enough of a pain as it is, I did not fancy doing it over such a big flat panel. The standard flight stands didn't have compatible magnets from warmag so I drilled holes into 32mm bases, then repurposed the stems. Next up, wave serpent. I've been working through a bit of an Eldar pile of shame so it's been good to see the backlog shrinking.

Whilst I dutifully continue the commission work, I need a palette cleanser, and thanks to Hachette FINALLY launching Combat Patrol in Oz, I've a spare TDA Captain and Tyranid Primes handy. I'm thinking Imperial Fists....I've been wanting to try the scheme using the pink under painting technique
