Manic Monday #73

 So my last post was April 11th... 2 months, 1 week 2 days ago....and during that time I have painted a blistering 6 models and those were this week!

But otherwise my past few weeks have been like this.....

Like a true Capricorn, I powered through it and back to where I need to be. And Bolter & Chainsword is down for a much need upgrade and I am looking forward to the new digs and being able to post there again. 

Onto the modeling front:

 So Metal Head Armory is doing a Necromunda Campaign....I'm torn between Redemptionist or Delaque and well neither gang is painted or built to my standards for this type of fight.....yet.

On the 40k Front....

I started back to working on my April Vow of Battle Sister Squad and Cherub.....

This is where they ended up after the weekend

Before deciding to continue on the next 5 members of the squad I figured I work on the Repentia Superior.

Finally got around to painting her flames and whips....

Since I was painting flames I started on another model that has molded flames.....Pious Vorne

She got a lot of attention and still alot to do on her. 

I did get my Warhammer+ Year Membership model 3 months early since I was already subscribed to the apps.  I don't think I am going to build and paint him as hes not really game friendly (not a removable model from the terrain)

Its a short week for me so hopefully more painting done this week/ weekend

Manic Monday #69

 

Well another weekend as come and gone. I did get some hobby progress in this weekend but unfortunately it was only on Friday, we will get to that in a little bit.

Created with BattleScribe (https://battlescribe.net)

Which means painting Paladins, Terminator Squad, and 2 Heavy Weapons for the other 2 squads. But they were planned to be painted already and some are in work already.

Or

I may paint some Order of the Valorous Heart Adepta Sororitas as they have been on the back burner for a bit. And I really need to get painting on them. Maybe my Celestians, or Celestian Sacresants, or Alana's Retibutor Squad....we shall see.

This Weeks Progress:

Stormhawk is done just need to do its base. 

Primed the Terminators I built last week and the Grand Master on Foot. And then started painting Grand Master. Down to some highlights and shading and then he is done. 

Manic Monday # 67

 Well another weekend has come and gone and while I dont feel like I did much modeling, I did get plenty of sleep...I needed it too. 

So the plan was to airbrush the Heraldry on the Stormhawk Thursday/ Friday weather permitting. Build MKV Dreadnought arms (Plasma Cannon/ Multi Melta) for MkV Dreadnought. Do some work on Nemesis Skull Reaver. 

I slept in Thursday so painting was out. I did not even leave the house except to take out trash. Relaxed. Later that day I busted out the Green Stuff World Roll Maker and started making some hoses and tubing for one of the 2 Dreadnoughts I was planning on working on. 

I dont think he will live again

So some green stuff tubing and hoses with some sheet aluminum and we have destroyed dreadnought. With the Front of the Sarcophgus open I had to try and to make a pilot

 Yup I think he's dead

Pilot built from Green stuff and zombie torso and head I think. 

As of Friday/ Saturday here is where I left off on the base and pilot

Got wrecked

still dead

So I started on my Other MkV Dreadnought Weapons 

I needed to get some paint on Storm hawk

Friday

Saturday

Panel lining down, Hazard stripping started, gonna try to get weapons casings first coat started 

Did I mention I worked on the Skull Reaver......

Size Comparison

Collar of Khorne!

So I decided my nesxt 2 Terminator squads are gonna be Terminator Squads so I can have 4 Terminator squads as troops since I cna use them more than a 3rd squad of Paladins. 

For Titan! We are the Hammer

 

Crusade

With the Metal Head armory Crusade looming, a few of of us are thinking, retooling, refining our 50 Power Level forces.  With the exception of Flyers, Dreadknights, and few units here and there I have plenty of models completed, so my force is ready to expand as needed. The big debate is who is my Nemesis Hunter and What units do I take.  I can co go big and hard hitting taking terminators or go fast and maneuverable units. being Power Level it is taxign on Grey Knight Players as I can take a Librarian (6PL) 5 man Terminators squad (12PL) and 5 man Interceptor squad (7PL) and thats my list...at 25 PL no heavy weapons. I know I am gonn need some weapons to deal with the other armies and Considering if I am the Grey Knights I have the most expensive base models going to battle. So I am leaning more toward strikes and cheaper units.

Non Crusade

One model I have been looking at, now that he is done, is the Brotherhood Chaplain. I think mine is going to be assigned to the Purgation Squad with Intonement for Guidance in my 1500 pt list. 

So now with that and Sanctuary my Purgation squads can move and shoot at BS 3+ with a 4++ save if the Litany, Sanctuary, and ignore cover if Astral aim is added to the mix. Thats a lot of Dakka.
