The Painting Contract - February 2017

Recommended Posts

Hello folks and welcome to the Painting Contract for February 2017 

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, silver tower or blood bowl 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.

With all that out of the way

My February pledge:

This month I pledge to paint up a thundertusk that I have just built

A stonehorn conversion I have just built

and to finish my gargant conversion and paint it

 

What are you all going to do?

I have a mix of projects to work on:
- Finish my human bloodbowl team (mostly done 4/5 partially painted)
- paint 10 graveguard
- paint 10 skeleton warriors and assemble 10 more
- paint mangler squigs

Depending on time, I'll try to get some other bonus bits done [emoji16]

Good luck everyone! See you on the 28th!

I'll go with 30 dryads, a treelord, and 10 witch elves.

 

By late March, I need to get the following done:

  • Drycha
  • Treelord
  • 5 Spite Revenants
  • 30 Dryads
  • Death Hag
  • Bloodwrack Shrine
  • 20 Witch Aelves
  • 20 Sisters of Slaughter
  • 5 Doomfire Warlocks
  • 6 Citadel Woods

Because of that, I will shoot for tabletop quality paint jobs, so about a 4/10.

I'll enter

 

I'm getting 5 Blightkings tomorrow.

I have 6 Chaos Warriors to assemble and paint.

Epidemus that I was gifted.

Whatever I end up getting for Valentine's day.

 

 

Why didn't I think of asking for models for valentines day, Genius!

I'm painting three Kurnoth hunters and five Tree revenants and possibly a Branchwych. Hoping to scrape through a 2/10 on quality of the paint work. Low bar due to total lack of ability O.o

Ooo, I like that addition to the idea.

I'm editing mine and will use it in future.  Thanks for the contribution/idea.

Im totaly new to this forum but i realy like this part so ill join in if thats no problem?

Im in the process of building myself a chaos dwarf army and have started painting the footmen of it. This month Ill be painting;

* 20 Fireglaves 

* Base and paint 2 warmachines with crew. I havent decided what machines yet. This is the part im worried about, theres alot of metal and wood on the machines and this is not my strong side. I have to do something different then just leadbelcher all over and a wash. I noticed that a guy called Ben has a lovely Chaos dwarf army in the gallery so maybe ill steal some ideas from his painting ;)

* 2 Daemonsmiths

Welcome to the forum bud, glad you found us. I love the chaos dwarfs but due to high price point I haven't had a chance to try them yet so I will be super interested to see how your project goes. I think their infantry are some of the coolest in the hobby at the minute. 

 

Good luck, looking forward to your progress :)

Alright this sounds good.

I have two categories:

  • Commission work
    • 10 Bloodletters
    • 1 Skull cannon
    • 20 Barghests (from puppets war, are resin and pain in the proverbial)
  • Tabletop quality for this lot so about 4/10

and separately:

  • Personal work
    • Finish painting a base coated Treelord Ancient - aiming for about 6 here
    • Get the rest of my 2,000 point sylvaneth army glued together (5 more tree-revenants, 10 Dryads, Treelord)
    • Resist tempation of splurging on Tzeentch (although if steamhead are released at the end of the month all bets are off)

Should be enough to get started with, although the commission work must be done even if that knocks personal stuff on the head.

Personal work:

  • Some work done on Treelord Ancient - probably 50% done.
  • I am waiting for my preferred supplier to get the Sylvaneth Start collecting box in, so currently no progress.
  • Pictures of the Treelord:
