Norman Paperman Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I, brother Norman, vow to continue getting paint on these Thousand Sons Terminators. I got some more trim done on one of them last night after I took the photo, which was the first time I had touched the hobby tools in two weeks. The paint you see above is the only hobbying I've done in the last month. We moved house and our Chaos Spawn has manifested, so there hasn't been any hobby time. But I've got some time off work to try and raise the little tentacle monster, so I might have room for more hobby sessions as the routine develops (I'm taking nights so the wife can sleep). Tzeentch knows if I'll get these models done, but I sure don't!

Heraclite Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Having completed my initial vow for may, I'll had Shiv from the last chancers as an extra, and maybe some other minis if I can find the time to work on them by the end of the month Tallarn Commander, gaurdian31, Grotsmasha and 2 others 3 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387206-may/page/2/#findComment-6171540 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heraclite Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 (edited) Sorry for the double post... But Shiv is done Just waiting for his base to dry and crack Editing my vow to avoid triple posting.

Trokair Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 My local Store is running a mystery mini build and paint competition this month. Below is what I had in my mystery bag, and then to the side pre and post priming of what I ended up with after some light conversion work. Post conversion I hope it is sufficiently board appropriate to include it here, added a purity seal to the jump pack thing, a aquilla to the gun, a frag greande on the belt (not visable) and use a Thallax Face plate and chain attachment to change the head and gun. As I have been mostly working on more Old World stuff it is likely the only 40k (adjacent) miniature I will paint this month. So hopefully it also counts a Trooper for the Campaign.

Tallarn Commander Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Wonderful progress everyone! I finished my vow for May--early for a change. Spoiler Daughter of Anarchy, The Banshees Raptor Squad, Third Battalion, The Night Lords, House Nightfall Daughter of Anarchy is a stalwart member of the Council of Eight's Unionist faction. The Unionists strive to improve pay and working conditions for House Nightfall's workers. But The Daughter of Anarchy is also a member of a secret Unionist sub-faction within the Council of Eight, the Anarcho-Syndicalists. The Anarcho-Syndicalists seek to overthrow all authority within House Nightfall, including the Council of Eight, and to replace it with autonomous worker collectives organized around the anarchist principle "No gods! No masters!" To that end, the Daughter of Anarchy has personally completed dozens of assassination, espionage, and saboteur missions against various enemies of the Anarchists. Their next nefarious plot is to set off an explosive device at a Council of Eight meeting. Daughter of Anarchy indeed!

Khulu Posted Tuesday at 02:22 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:22 AM (edited) I fell far short of my goal this month, but still did get a lot done. The primer I used for the Thousand Sons has been a bit of a pain (rubs off on my fingers, doesn't seem to take paint very well) so I probably need to find something else. I ended up finishing 20 Tactical Marines and a White Scars Leviathan I did to take a break from the TS: I'll be going out of town shortly so no chance I'm finishing the rest.

andes Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago I finished building Wazdakka -- lots of sub-assemblies, and not really optional if you want to get paint on details with intent (so many details...). Gonna have to get masking fluid on all the connecting points before painting or he'll never go together straight. Now to get the 'koptas done before I run out of month Trokair and Madao 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387206-may/page/2/#findComment-6173120 Share on other sites More sharing options...
