=] 12 Months of Hobby 2024 [=

[Tyriks]

Finished my tactical squad! I'm working towards a Sagyar Mazan list so I have plenty more of these to paint. This is definitely more work than I'm used to doing for basic troops! Might work on something else for a bit to take a break before jumping back in. I'll have to think. I also have a ton left to build so maybe I'll work on that. Still need to source some transfers too.

Oh yeah, forgot I need to post these here too. Sorry for the duplication; that’s 3 threads now. August models completed and then a few more:

How are you painting the yellow? It looks great!

How are you painting the yellow? It looks great!

Haha thank you - I was just complaining in another thread about how bad it looks 

 

I followed this video, but I wouldn’t do it again as it was pretty time consuming:

 

 

[Brother Christopher]

@TheArtilleryman Good job. Yellow is, well, you've painted these guys so you know way more than I do: it's a pain to get right. I like these guys!

 

@Tyriks And another brother facing the evils of painting and pulling off some nice heresy models. Good job, mate!

 

@Grotsmasha I have a question regarding the criteria for what constitutes a finished base. In order to qualify for a completion, the models should be based. If I don't plan on doing textured bases for my dudes, could restoring the bare plastic base to a black/grey base colour count?

I've never dis-counted anyone's completion if the bases weren't done, all it has a real effect on is consideration for the Month's Favourite

[Tyriks]

Jumped into a Tactical Support Squad. Meant to take a picture before I started, but forgot. So, for August (or more likely September), I vow to paint 10 TSS with Plasma:

 

 

When the previewed the new Mk3, I hated it. Now that I have some, I really like it. The helmets are still not as good to me as the old ones, but overall I think I prefer these.

[Trokair]

I could have finished one of these yesterday, but i really wanted to get the entire unit done, I think I am in time for August overtime.

 

Anyway, 10 Rough Riders for the 7th Rhûnish Dragoons. That’s another part for mu plodding along and another part for the Call to Arms, slowly I am getting there.

 

 

The Ordnance field battery is the last part of the Call to arms I have not yet done, so they will be my September Vow for here, though really i wanted to get them done in the next two weeks.

 

Call to arms starting point, almost all done

[Kennyjapan]

Just about done for overtime, not happy with the quality of them but between being busier for this month than I thought and a general lack of motivation for painting at mo... they're painted which is better than not so that'll do (I know the invictarii bases are just a single piece of plastic drybrushed but i'm planning a big interlinked base idea to go with Gulli... and I really am beyond bored of doing city bases now)

 

EDIT: Anyone know how to add spoilers now? my message box no longer has the button it used to for it

[Boc]

I, Boc, vow to complete for the month of September:

1x Maulerfiend (stubborn)

2x War Dogs

1x Knight Rampager

1x ballistus Dreadnought 

Lion El’Jonson (I've had this since release but have been too intimidated to paint him) 

 

Edited September 2 by Boc

[Brother Argent]

Okay so I am possibly over the window for August but I have had these guys done for a few days but didn't get pics up.  So the completion of my second August vows:

 

1x Chaos Lord

 

2x Chaos Rhinos

 

And the Maulerfiend (also from my Plodding Along)

 

So now (due to a new computer and thus finally being able to play new games, so a lot of my time going into that) I am in a bit of a situation.  I need to paint my entire CAll to Arms Xenos vow as well as convert and paint 3x characters for the IRon Gauntlet Challenges in the Liber.  All this in 14 days...  Its not going to be easy.  But I think I will give it a crack. Now I just need to stay out of Hogwarts Legacy and Cities Skylines 2...

 

I'll get a vow in the next day or so.  It will likely be a big one.
