Overview

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

These look great!

And here are the missing Wytches: it brings my card to 6 stamps now: As explained in a previous entry, this new wytch unit is meant to "legalize" my existing one by adding to it 3 minis with gladiator weapons. When I built my first unit based on the Ynnari Wytches datasheet the option was not defined. Now thta I may also field a small Drukharii army, I felt the need to correct thi (and add at the same time a second Wytch unit). This is how it loooks when all miniatures from both batches are mixed and redistributed: I will make a break for a few days (a.k.a. painting Gobs for TOW or working on custom scenery). But I have plenty of back log miniautres primed and ready for March!

Wraithlord and Guardians finished! Next up, Jetbikes.

As fas as I understand it the only slot that covers scenery is "paint something"...

I have decided to inject some planification in my card. If I comply with the blue and green, it will already be a certain achievement. Red will mean that I succumbed to temptation again. And bought stuff I do not really need...

Is there a place for terrain within the Bingo Card? Could it be substituted for a Monsters and Vehicle slot maybe?

I have finished one side of the Sanctum, and one of the four Statues,

Looking great so far

Every now and then GW does a small boxed game that's exclusive to a specific retailer, like Barnes and Noble or Target, that aren't available from GW directly. They're more board game than wargame, and usually play in 30-60mins, often as co-op rather than verses. Lair of the Beast is all of the BSF Heroes vs the Ambull in a standalone Arena and DOW: Onslaught is most of the Indomitus models (Chaplain, Judicier, Bladeguard Ancient, 3 Bladeguard, 3 Eradicators) vs Orks (tokens) in a Wave survival type game.

Just by way of a quick update, this is where my Black Templar Crusader Squad is currently at. I don't think I'm going to get the whole unit finished by the end of this month due to a combination of losing a whole week trying to take receipt of the parcel from the post office that contained the kit (!!!!!) and then life getting slightly busy for the last few days. So all in all I probably lost a third of this month to delays. But never-the-less, I am pleased with how they are coming along!

This is fantastic! I love it!

The nightbringer is looking great, and I enjoyed reading about the games even though I have never heard of those games before! What are those games? They sound interesting and fun!

I think we may have a contender for the bonus points this month for "the funniest comment" haha!

I have not progressed that much on my last pledge; despite a snowy weather all week end, I stayed stucked to the Olympic games instead (and to ToW miniatures / I needed painting some green). But I've managed building up 5 Wraithguards and Inquisitor Ostramondeus + his retinue during interludes. This will be for next entries, one for "Supernatural" and second for "Leaders and HEroes" I will resume painting 30/40k stuff this week, or at least I will try to. So, at the moment and until Whytches get some progress up to completion, my score card is still as such:

Terminator sorcerer done! Next up, more Eldar:

Next up, my mate got me the Warhammer World terminator traitor sorcerer ages ago and now is the time to finally paint him! There's not a unit in the 40k world eaters this guy nearly fits into, but it's too cool a model not to paint up.

I try myself hard and harder every day. Back on topic; some progress this week with 2 entries planned already done: the "God of War"-lord Titan and the "Something..." entries. I will eventually add details in my blog latter today or tomorrow. (EDIT: Two out of One – something for my plodding along - Bouargh´s miniatures´ closet clean-up - The Bolter and Chainsword) The Wytches have been built and are in the waiting list for painting: The built is of course not that legit vs. rules and WYSIWYG; I explain: I already have one unit built when the datasheet for Ynnari wytches was released, without gladiator weapons. With the datasheet released in the Drukharii codex, up to 3 can bear such gladiator weapons. I therefore built 6 models with such tooling in prder to redistribute between the 2 units and use them in any army. I have used the bladed scourges inc. spares from the Venom crew. Other models were personalized so that they use in priority spare bits from previous sprues (dual knives from Venom and Raider crew, whip from Scourges...). Bitz managment or so: I do rather deplete old sprues from previous box rather than getting half used sprues from all boxes....

Work has started on The Nightbringer, and a test piece for the Sanctum colour scheme,
