I've recently signed up for the RAW17 and Warhammer Achievements 17 events. Both are hobby events, with a strong Narrative and so I'd like to take the opportunity to redo my bases, and paint (a lot) of new models. I hope to succeed but with real life to contend with as well failure may happen. Fortunately, I have 2,500 points already painted and an appropriate Hunter & Monster for RAW17. Unfortunately, they are not the ones I want to do.

So without further ado, the plan is:

Rebase:

• Gitboss on Wolf
• Grot Shaman (Moonclan)
• Grot Shaman (Gitmob)
• Arachnarock Spider
• 60 Gitmob Grots
• 9 Nasty Skulkers
• Spear Chukka
• Rock Lobber
• 2 Orruk Chariots
• 15 Spider Riders
• 4 Snotlings
• 5 Cave Squigs
• 2 Squig Herders

To Paint

• Grot Big Boss on Spider (Finecast)
• Orruk Warboss on Wyvern (Mierce)
• Arachnarock Shaman
• 20 Moonclan Grots (5th Edition)
• 2 Wolf Chariots
• 10 Wolf Riders
• Snotling Pump Wagon (hopefully converted)
• Gargant
• 10 Orruks
• 10 Savage Orruks
• 3 Ogors
• Blood Sacrifice Tokens
• Objective Tokens
• Extra Monster / Leviathan (Mierce)
• Display Board (possibly....!)

For those who haven't read the Rulespack for Warhammer Achievements, @Stevewren has provided a list of painting achievements which I hope to incorporate into the above:

• Converted Model - Pump Wagon / Orruk Chariot
• Display Board - Maaaybe ...
• 5th Edition Unit - Moonclan Archers
• Freehand - At least one Banner
• Weathering - I think the Arachnarock
• Diorama - no idea...
• Scenic Bases - aiming for Agrellan Earth, Skulls, and the new Vines
• Enter a model into a painting Comp - never having done this, I'll pick the best one when I get there
• Use technical paints - probably rust
• Finecast - Spider Big Boss
• Scratch Builder - Snotling Pump Wagon?
• Greenstuff - Snotling Pump Wagon?
• NMM - sword / weapon on the Wyvern
• Unique Model for Arcane Transformation - hopefully Mierce will help here

So there's loads to do, and lots of weekends full between now and then. I hope to keep my progress listed here - and add some photos this evening.
