YAY!!!!

 

....er....what to paint?  LOL

 

/edit/  Being short on funds (so not going to do my pair of thunderbolts and marauder destroyer this time around...maybe next year), I'll probably restrict myself to models on hand...slim pickings...I could do 10-20 more kasrkin and a tank for IG...but after that, I'm low on new kit.  I do have over 100 guardsmen with 15 year old paint that would love to be redone in my new (only seven years old, lol) paint scheme, but that's labor intensive and won't bring much glory, and I also have three sentinels in the old scheme that need repainting.  Overall...not much.  For sisters, I could do about 15 repentia to go with the 4+1 that are already done out of the two full squads that are planned, but five of them would give me no credit, since they'd be joining an existing squad whose mistress is done.  Add to that my fourth and last battle sister squad...blech, no points in that well at all!  For tau, I have a NIB riptide, a piranha, and about 30 fire warriors sitting around.  Not really eager to work on that...for DA...not much there, but it might be the most important thing.  I'm about 25 models away from completing the 5th company (needing a 6th tactical squad, a second assault squad, and the guts of a second devastator squad (I have a few basic marines and one of the weapons, need 3 weaps and a sergeant, so if I paint an extra model, it's a five man dev squad)...I've been toiling (infrequently) at this full battle company for over a decade...to finish it....would be stupendous.  Given that I'm not going to contribute many points to any faction this year, I'm leaning towards the DA project.  If not that, then maybe the repentia.  Both of those options would be in the spirit of the event, which is to motivate us to get stuff done that's been neglected...but it still pains me not to be going for huge points, lol.

YAY!!!!

Join me in the stripping club!!!

 

You'll end up with tubs and tubs and tubs of models on the go.

Lol ... That's about half of them. ;)

The commissariat expects that every Guardsman will do his duty! Complete your vows no matter how big or small - or die in the attempt ;)

 

I spent some of the weekend starting on my magnetised Shadowsword, good job too as I need to acquire some more magnets before I can finish building it!

Race you - I will be starting my baneblade build tonight but I may get sidetracked with a chimera Jagdpanzer conversation my son has talked me into doing for him :(

Hmmm ... A super heavy paint off to start things off?

Count me in on that!!!

If in doubt - hit them with a hammer - HellHammer msn-wink.gif

So far - 4 Super Heavies bid.... do we hear 5 smile.png

Initially I thought you'd miss counted and we were on just 3 but then spotted:

I'm looking forward to this. I have a Baneblade and a couple of tanks that I've been holding off on painting so they would be available for this event!

The mighty wulfgar (same wulfgar as swchq?) stepped in before us. :D
