    I'm actually (slowly) working on a Kroxigor. Too bad it's already started.

    Maybe I'll even start up a paint blog... hahaha

    I will enter a Mantic Deadzone Veer-Myn starter set (minus one Nightcrawler).
    Some of the models are already assembled (not undercoated or painted, though). That okay?

    Yeah I don't think we stipulated how the models have to be before painting, I'd love to see some of those painted up!

    From the depths of the web-way in that vaulted city of darkness known as Commorragh, a new power looms. Soon they will foray into real space to raid the Mon-keigh anew, and take slaves for the glory of the Kabal of the Black Heart!

    Happy first day of challenge everybody! 20170501_083954.jpg dark eldar.jpg

    Here´s what I´ll be doing!

    4warlords.jpg

    I´ll do lots of magnetization and hopefully conversions (expect green stuff and maybe casts). I´ll be provably going slow on the first month for two reasons: First, I´m still deciding on my own created chapter (lots of decisions still to do, including names & colour scheme), and second I´ll be having exams in about 1 month. Still excited by it!

    Good luck to everyone!

    I shall endeavor to complete him (alongside a lowly skink; skink not pictured).

    No pics either yet, no internet at new house and terrible phone signal...

    Built 20 models today, going to get all the little dwarves built before I paint anything.

    I have no doubt that you will finish everything. You're the forum's strongest advocate for painting!

    6 more dudes built last night, just one more box of 5 hearthguard and the 2 dudes from the Magmabomb box and I'm all built for dwarves.

    I remembered I had one in the silver tower box as well, so decided to get him done while I'm working on the dwarves.

    I have made progress of sorts! The Kabalite warriors are armless and ready for base coating. I even sorted out the bases before hand, shocking! 20170504_115304.jpg 20170504_115300.jpg 20170504_115255.jpg
