Quick and blurry sleepy wargamer photo. I've at least got some proper basecoats on the last of these guys. And the Iron Father! I've not ignored the suggestions you guys put forward about the grav-gauntlet, I just A- got overzealous, and B- was kind of tired of having him sitting grey since Christmas. He needed done!

Finished my 39 Breacher assembly, finished my Sicarian Venator, working on a few conversion pieces to turn the Sicarian Battle Tank into anoither Venator, but that's 90% done. Finished my Spartan, Finished assembling the other 9 Terminators, just gonna get the five Contemptors built, still waiting on the arms for most of them, the shoulderpads for the marines and the 40th breacher that I'll have when I get my last 5 man marine squad so I can fill out a couple of special marines as well as soon as my last FW order comes in. If it comes in soon enough I might even be able to eke out a Deredeo assembly for this, if not this month, definitely next month.

I'll have pics up by Tuesday, that's my next day off where I get more than an hour or two after work to do stuff without sleeping.

Do I have to Base them to count as assembled? I wanna do special things with the bases, so I'd rather not even attach them if I don't have to.

Aside from some missing panels and weapons, my lightning is finished. The transfers are not as bright/vividly white in real life - the camera/lightning doesn't show the weathering off too well. Or the cockpit, which is actually a very dark, red.

- Designation D1MD1M*, Interceptor/Strike aircraft. X Legion, Fleet Air Arm, assigned to Clan Tellum. Post Isstvan Massacre. 

The above image displays an unknown pattern of fighter aircraft, believed to be based upon the Lightning Fighter design. The aircraft was one of several liberated from the (then neutral) Mechanicum cargo vessel [01001111 01001000 00100000 01001110 01010101 01010100 01010011], by survivors of the Isstvan V Massacre.

UPDATES LADDIES! On to the the highlights on the blood angel, and here is a shot of the three previously finished marines:

@Iron, loving the flyer, and not only because we bear a uncanny resemblance msn-wink.gif

@Poom, you just came all dressed to impress didnt you? biggrin.png

Back to the highlights,

Hey Guys!

 

I'm still here - apologies, I've been somewhat preoccupied with real-life distractions, such as trying to find full-time employment. Things are getting sorted now though, so I should have time to paint again soon. There has been some great painting on here in the last two weeks though! I'm off to log all the progress!

 

++ EDIT ++

 

Blimey. Well that was eight pages of awesome. I mean I've been keeping an eye on things, but it all looks pretty special when you look through the whole thread! A few questions first:

 

Frozenfoods - could you clarify your vow for me please? I think you pledged 20 breachers to build, but you are talking about 40 on this page, and I'm not sure how many tanks you are putting together.

DimDim - As the postal gods have frowned upon you, I have ammended you vow to just the 4 marines and the built russ.

Lanky27 - your Sallies contemptor was stunning, but you said it was finished but there were no guns. Will it get some weopons, or shall I score it without?

Nevindar - you said your apothecary was finished, but I've either missed it, or you haven't posted it. Can you stick it up here or point me in the right direction!

zedmeister - your finished alphas look great man. I've scored you for five complete marines and the shoulder pads so far. Is that correct? Its a bit hard to keep track!

depthcharge and LionofJudah - Can you guys just clarify for me how many completed models you have. I have you both down as zero, though you've clearly been busy!

palak - are you adding that contemptor to your pledge or is he just there for fun?

jeremy - where are you, you old ninja?

 

OK. I'd better do a quick break down on the scores!

 

Completed pledges

Traitors 6 - 1 Loyalists*

* with three risked by Slipstreams, ROBOcaster and Chaplain Mortis

 

Points Scored

Traitors 139.75 - 63.5 Loyalists

 

Percentage completions

Traitors 40.19% - 18.5% Loyalists

 

So in summary, the loyalists are taking a pasting, with only 7 days to go! There will need to be some serious activity to turn this one around guys!

 

The top scoring traitors are currently: Rage of Khorne with 66 points

Sup00sed with 30.5 points

palak with 12 points

 

The top scoring loyalists are currently: ROBOcaster with 18 points

 MindofMetal with 7 points

 Raktra and Ironwrought Huw, both with 6 points

 

Last push before the ETL guys, lets see some action!

Making Progress on my 10m tac squad. The other 5 are almost at this point, Arms and Guns are drying and Backpacks are next.

 

Again, apologies for my Potato Phone Pics.

Hi everyone,

I've started the painting of my 5 IF Templars, here is the proof :

Still working on enlarging the images a little bit, unless it is enough like this.
 
More updates tomorrow, I plan to finish them by the end of the week.

Blah... So I'm approximately 24 hours late posting these... Don't ask.

WIPs!

Command Squad -

Breacher Command Section 1 -

Breacher Command Section 2 -

gallery_67188_8872_141483.jpg

These guys just need a little bit of a tidy up and basing, which hopefully won't take long and will give me time to focus on Polux and my MotL Thousand Son marine...

spu00sed - Good eyes mate! It's actually two things. What you can see in the pic is the Grenade thing from the Breacher Squad. There's a bolter chainblade on the other side of it. I like the idea of stunning an opponent with a blast of grenades and then ruining their face with a chain-shield. Maybe a little more World Eater than Imperial Fist, but hey, if it works, why not?

Well, promising a painted Apothecary and not delivering a picture or two... -shakes head and slaps hand- Well, WYSIWYG he is more of a Primus Medicae but.. tomato/tomato (I do realise that quite does not work in text!)

Also, the previously mentioned addon pledges do stand, ETL is coming after all!

I have 6 of my 10 terminators done, these ones are the ones I started from the ground up. The other four I just need to base and then they will be "done".

 

I dot expect to have my two HQ models "done"...but I'm pretty happy with their progress.

There you go, chief.

 

Hope that helps. Looking forward to seeing your Fists.

 

Dallo

Thanks a lot, Brother ! I edited my post with my first pics, some will come soon.
