Haven’t decided exactly how I will focus my hobby this month but it’s either going to be 

Option 1: Chaos Warshrine & a Chaos Spawn

Option 2: 5x Plastic Fleshhounds & Plastic Karanak 

Decided to go with Option 1 but may be a little slower because I am also working on a Deamon Prince & Skyla Angrimm

Okay, New year, new try. 😉

I will try to paint for this month the Khorne warband for Underworlds and a handfull of grots as a tester for a "maybe" new army. 

Lets do it. 😄

Edit: And one those Fyrslayers that I bought for Silver Tower.

New year, new goals :D 

Paint:

- Finish up my chaos chosen blood bowl team (80% painted already, need to figure out how to cover the holes on the bases to begin terrain)

- Finish up giant for more underworlds shennanigans (60% base coated)

- Start/finish base coats for core BoC army (20 ungors, 20 bestigors, 6 bullgors, doombull,  beastlord, bray shaman, ghorgon, herdstone, chimera, 3 enlightened, 2 chaos spawn)

Stretch:

- Start base coats for other BoC units ( tzaangor shaman, one eyed beastlord)

- Finish assembling remaining BoC army at a minimum (5 centigor, chariot, 10 pestigors, 10 bestigors, 10 ungors, 1 cygor, 1 ghorgon, 10 gors, 3 bullgors, 2 great bray shamans, ) 

When not painting, will be assembling:

- Khorne half of wrath and rapture

-Idoneth Deepkin (aim to get ahkelian king/volturnos, 6 eels, 1 turtle assembled)

-undead blood bowl team

 

(hm.. looks like I shouldn't get any gloomspite quite just yet)

So, I will aim low and hope for the best:

Finish the Maw Krusha: I have completed a wing, about half the other and the underside. Gonna take a while. Not started the megaboss...

If I get that done: Ironskullz boyz from Shadespire.

Edit: Success!!! Maw Krusha complete. Next challenge then is 10 Boar Boyz...Mawk4.jpg.9a1602da83c2c9c35add6036a966b703.jpg

Part of my wider hobby resolutions is to try different techniques. I'm well into Kill Team so I've done some work with washes and technical paints, just as skill building. Did these two today, much happier with the top one. Much quicker too!

No more 40K posts until I've done more AoS! Promise!

The top one is definately the better of the two.

I finished my modular hills (from last month) and made progress on my ruins.

For my hills, some of them were a bit too shiny from the last coat of diluted PVA glue I put on them, so I tried using a matte varnish to tone it down, and couldn't tell a difference in them.  So they are done now.

My ruins have had the drywall putty/filler/spackle/joint compound spread over the foamboard, and then some pebbles and sand glued in for ground grit.  I also spray primed them black since I took the below picture, so they are solid black now.

Less time? Well done you! Always good to take stock of where things are at overall.

For me for January if I put any paint onto anything, preferably Tzeentch, I’ll be happy - expecting a busy couple of weeks and also out of the habit after taking the last few months off. 🙂

Sisters of the watch are well on their way to completion. These have been incredibly enjoyable to paint. I look forward to the next group of 10 whenever that will be. Here is also the test I have so far for how to base the army. It is only textures so far, but I think once I can get some tufts, colours and shading it will really give the miniatures life.  The updated army shot is also in there. Pretty pleased for less than 2 months worth of work. 

Enjoy
