What does the purple stripe on the base signify? Squad?

[Brother Argent]

How is it November already...? 

 

I've got most of my Orks sorted and will get a pic up soon (hopefully before October cut off).  October has been... difficult.  Hobby times has been hard to come by and as I am considering attempting to re-push myself as a writer and go in NaNoWriMo again this year (writing a novel in a month) my time will be at even more of a premium.  Hate to end the year of a bad note but that may be how things go.

 

Anyway, I'll try to get some finished orks up shortly.

Unfortunately I don’t have time to paint this month so it’s the first I’ve missed since January :(

For the moment i'm thinking company. I'm basically toying with the idea of turning all my silly numbers of firstborn into a single chapter so having elements from all companies with purple being one of the company colours. I'll probably transfer squad numbers into the company bar at a later date... if i can be bothered 

[Bouargh]

I, bouargh, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of November pledge to complete by month's end:

• 2 Inquisitorial henchmen I forgot I had (pile-of-shame is an unadequate term, it should be cave-of-shame; and very dark with low light)
• 2 Castellax
• 1 building from the recently released KT box

 

The dwarves in the background are (of course) not enlisted. But they demonstrate perfectly the depth of my Cave-of-Shame: I thought I bought (eons ago) a Battle at Skull Pass WFB starter set. In fact I rediscovered I bought 2... Time passes and my memory fails. What else, this time 40k related, will I rediscover?

[_Saracen]

I, _saracen, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of November pledge to complete by month's end:

1 Riptide Battlesuit

 

[Dwango]

I've had a bit of a slow back end of the month, so haven't completed all my vow. It'll move on to next month. The blood slaughterer is done though.

 

 

[Grotsmasha]

Had some Scourges and a Knight Dominus added to the Coteaz commission, due pre-Xmas, so November should be those.

[Brother Argent]

Well that didn't go as planned.  Ended up getting stuck out fire fighting all day.  Will hopefully get at least one model finished and up by tomorrow...

[Jolemai]

October Complete

 

Librarian Dreadnought complete

3/3 complete

[Paladin777]

I, Paladin777, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of November pledge to complete the reworking of 6 sanguinary guard, my DnD character (a boxing professor), and my wife's Christmas present mini (a bear reading with a kitty next to her) by month's end.

[nightwing1511]

I, Nightwing, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of November pledge to complete paints (not bases, thatd be overcommitting) on a tactical squad from my oldschool black tide by month's end.

 

 

Pray for me, brothers. These mold lines are something else...

Well this is hopefully not too late to count for Orktober but I have at least got the Boyz and the Runtherd done:

Not the best pics but they will count for now.  I fell well short of the Deff Dread and the Deff Koptas so I guess:

 

I, Brother Argent, vow for the Month of November to complete the Deff dread and 2x Deff Koptas I started last month.

 

I was really hoping to by either pushing through my guard or my to Repulsors for this month but as I am also attempting Nano, perhaps the smaller commitment for now might have to do.

[Bouargh]

With a full WE inc a bank holiday, I've been able to complete 2 Castellax.

 

 

The rest of the pledge has received some serious prep work too, but the core of the paint job remain to be done.

Let see if I can complete the 2 henchmen this week; indeed the scenery, even if I focus only on 1 out of 4 KT-Volkus buildings, is going to require, I anticipate, more dedication. Or rather: more mindfulness and sustained focus. I now remember why I pledged my previous scenery through a Plodding along...

[Grotsmasha]

Ive been given the green light to use the beaten and battered scheme I used on the Orks for the Knight, here's the test panel,

 

and here's the "Chaos-ification" of the Knight,

I've just been asked to undo all the Chaos-ification

 It's not a lot of work, I can switch out the Carapace and crotch for the alternates, but I was really looking forward to painting it.

That's a real shame - I was just admiring the contrasts and similarities of how I had chaosified my own Tyrant.  Any possibility you could keep the model for yourself and swap out a different model for the client?  Heck, if it has the harpoon/flamer thing combo, I might be willing to buy the model off of you and you could buy your client a new one.

I, Dwango , embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of November pledge to complete another blood slaughterer and the failed 6 scyllax for heresy era dark mech and various bits of terrain by month's end.

 

Not sure whether I should keep the head bear or add the mask.

 I've contacted the commissioner and offered to;

a: remove everything but the shoulder spikes as I drilled those in

b: wait for a new kit

 

I'll see what they say BUT I may just PM you later. The kit is fully magnetised. All four main weapons, the four turret options, and at the waist.

[Heraclite]

As planned, I didn't complete my Captain with shield in october, so I, Heraclite, embark once again on the 12 months of hobby challenge and for the month of november vow to paint one Primaris Captain with shield :

[Grotsmasha]

A compromise was made, and here is the chaosification that remains,
