TheOtherJosh Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Hello folks and welcome to the Painting Contract for May 2018! If you don't know the rules they are: Each month you post an amount of models that you agree to try to paint/build/convert/sculpt. This can be terrain, models, Warhammer Quest Silver Tower/ Shadows Over Hammerhal, Blood Bowl or Shadespire as well as AoS of course. On the 28th of the month the contract closes and you can then post your progress images so that they can be critiqued, shared and boasted about. It is a great way to get involved in the community and to get inspiration. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone share their progress! Enjoy! @Mohojoe & @TheOtherJosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOtherJosh Posted April 28, 2018 Author Share Posted April 28, 2018 I'll start off! Last month wasn't successful as I'd like, but I ended up with some nice terrain! This month let's see what can be done to remedy that: Goals: Build Magore's Fiends & Skaven Packmaster and 10 rats Complete painting of WHQ Doomseeker Paint a major either adversary or hero for whq (Horror of Tzeentch, Magister, Bloodsecrator) OR Shadespire Warband Stretch: Kairic Acolytes (3 primed) Prime 10 bloodreavers Prime 5 Putrid Blightkings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artobans Ghost Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Looking ahead I will not be doing the last months volume ? i have a few little projects I can work on. Budget still is unrelenting but I have a box of 10 shadow warriors, 10 spider riders, or some duardin warriors , miners and a couple of characters still undone. Plus a high warden on a griphon if I get carried away. I will also be converting my old Dark Angel army to my Guardians of the Covenant colours but that for another forum. My real interest is my first true AoS army which will be stormcast and vanguard together. As I need to buy it all, that will take more time. Just put a bid on a lord Relictor as I love the model and the fluff. That will start the slippery slope of a new army ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valenswift Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Illness prevented me from fulfilling much from my last pledge, so only managed 2 Fulminators and some Azyrite ruins This month it is looking like mostly Idoneth Deepkin. Initially I'm saying Lotann and 10 Namarti thralls but could add to this once I've been to Warhammer Fest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praecautus Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I pledge to paint my Khorne marked chaos warshrine and 10 blood reavers. This gives me more options for 2k mortal Khorne lists. I expect this is about 3 weeks painting so Stretch goals would be I have about 40 minis that need basing. So some of them would be good. Some chaos heroes, so one or two of the following Gaunt Summoner Slaughter priest Exalted death bringer Aspiring death bringer Should the mood take me then I may paint some stormcast allies for my sons army (and future allies for my idoneth). It's a lot and I will be happy w shrine and reavers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Praecautus Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 So as way of inspiration for anyone considering doing this. For the past 3or 4 months I have been painting the Hammerhal set, just a few models each month and documented progress in these threads. What seemed daunting back in January is now done and being actively played with, wth these threads and feedback driving me on. Here are the heroes I painted over the past few months.

Charles Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Ok it’s time to get serious. I have had a stretch goal for months now that I have failed to complete, but it’s time. My pledge is to finally paint Skarbrand, hopefully he hates paint & will remain incandescent I’m not recording a stretch this month because I am only focusing on Skarbrand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookiez Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 My first pledge also... Idoneth, here I come! I need to finish my Eidolon. I got the coat and armour done, finally, after many days of blending and glazing for a TMM on the iron and good blend on the waves, but I can see a light in the tunnel. Volturnos. 10 Thralls? Should do. This is the absolute minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
