++ Casual 30K Hobby Challenge - August ++


Kor'Vesh

Recommended Posts

So I managed to miss most of the ETL due to my airbrush breaking. Thankfully the Machine God has granted me its blessing, and (combined with a rare free weekend) I'm now painting ready. I'd like to pledge - 

2 techmarines, 1 dreadnought, 1 vindicator and 5 heavy support marines. 

I may also be against the wall I've been tracked into a last minute trip to Calgary but I got a few days when I get back and only bolters to paint so I will try to crush it out once I'm back in onterrible wish me luck

 

For the VII Legion

After a raid on my bitz box I've managed to finish 2 more Tactical marines.

My Suzerain have arrived so it's happy days! I'll aim to get them built and

at least one painted ASAP.

Really excited about these the kit is a thing of beauty!

Here's some pics of the tacticals:

Update: Well nothing to update really!!

Doing an extra week offshore and packed my paints & models

Got told by security I couldnt take them, so luckily my employer is nearby or they would all have gotten binned.

Will get home 28th, but with house move, I will not get any work done till 30th at the earliest

Wish me luck wacko.png blink.png

What beautiful work in this thread. MOM continues with some excellent mechanicum work, Ironwithout paints an enitire (stunning) fists army, Jud throuws out some stunning Ultras, and jimbo has nearly finished more marines in week than I have in my army! Not to mention two awesome white scars raptors from Kurama, and a host of loyalist vows.

Awesome.

Have an update (at last) for doing so well biggrin.png

I say update, but seeing as there are NO HERETIC COMPLETIONS yet this month, running down the scores seems a little pointless. The loyalists are winning everything.

Right, I'm going to finish my Thallax now, while the football is on.....

A little under 4 days, and I'm finished. Weather (and camera) permitting, I may attempt to try and get some better photos.

Nothing says "get the hell out of my bunker complex" quite like 5 Iron Hands wielding sawn-off autocannons laugh.png

I'm now pledging a 5 strong seeker squad.

Well, after a fun 4.30AM start, my seeker squad is done - apart from the bases, which have yet to arrive in the post. (So old and temporary will have to do).

I'm particularly fond of the team leader (far left). 

 

 

To some in Clan Tellum (and their merry band of other Isstvan survivors), he's a selfless hero, with a knowledge of the arcane dark arts of demolitions that is second to none. However to others, he's a reckless pyromaniac given licence to do as he wishes, and a psychotic who would be more at home serving with Autek Mor's misfits of Clan Morragul.

Rumours and hushed whispers suggest that once, long before the dark days of Isstvan, he was due to become a member of the clan's Chamber Ferrum, the techmarine fraternity - before a misplaced melta-bomb and several irate techpriests put an end to those plans. Certainly, his expertise with technical issues (noted by the modifications to weaponry and armour) suggest that there may be an element of truth to the story... 

 

 

 

Must resist urge to pledge more... 

While I havn't had the time to work on the pledge this month, (uni exams, which I passed!) and wont have time for the rest of the month due to a music festival all weekend I still have a picture of an early, pre-putty wip on what is on my desk at the moment.

Now, let rampant speculation on what I am doing ensue!
(I did manage to assemble and prep the Lightning at least, which will be a nice thing to paint... next month or so... )

Through the struggle that is this month I found an hour/half to make some quick progress on the remaining legionaries:

Not terrible as ive got the yellow on all three and the base coats (besides metallics) done on dallo, but who knows when the next time ill have to work on these may be.

Keep it up lads!

Well I'm guessing either tech thrall, solar auxilia or something from the imperial militia list. As you are  an Iron Hand player, I would guess Tech Thrall is more likely. 

My only real 30K goal this month was to paint a HQ for the Death Guard force i'm starting, and to get comfortable with the colours and feel of the army. Happy to say Calas Tython is soooo very close to being finished.

I think he looks pretty good on the table top. Not great a photographing minis to look good, but hey ho.

Just a quick update on my progress, or should I say lack of! I've had very little hobby time this month, again, as I prepare to start a new job! I have a day off tomorrow so hopefully will be able to get my squad primed, if the weather here brightens up! Pics to follow!

Dear Dantioch,

 

Never stop painting.

Awesome work sir, and thanks for putting a helmet on that model. He now looks brutal. All these ultramarines are looking frustratingly good, you and Jud are doing them proud!

 

Nice Typhon too Amayasu.

Well, here is a thallax that I've gone and done. Not so impressive for a month's work, but I like him!
