    I actually got a bit of painting done today! :wideyed:


    The skin is completed on my Kroxigor and the scales are almost complete.

    Next are the bone/nail sections, gold trim and stone.

    At first I thought about going with necrons, but I decided to go with tyranids so I can use the space hulk genestealers in games

    That is a fair enough line of reasoning. They are a good looking army as well.

    I did some more painting!!! Sadly, I am an ungodly slow painter.

    Almost done the Krox. Next up is all the gold bits.

    A little more progress. Not much, but better than nothing I suppose. Finished the under layer (brown) and first layer of gold for the gold sections. Plan to wash and highlight tomorrow.

    For my skink... I think I'm going to go with a camo skink. Haven't decided on a colour scheme; I'll probably try something different.

    I'm combining a metal demon prince and a metal blood thirster into a new monstrosity, plugging the holes with green stuff.

    It's keeping me out of trouble, but I'm also not painting shit.

    Almost done the Krox! All the gold trim is complete. Now it's on to the stone section of the weapon and finishing off the base.

    This is the most painting I've done in years! :p


    But first, it's time for UFC 212

    Can I actually change my challenge and instead of painting space marines finish the temple guard unit I´m working on? I´m not really liking the "situation" space marines are now in, and therefore I´m trying to avoid them and wait to see what happens in a year´s time :confused:
    That way I can try to push myself so I don´t take all summer to finish my temple guards :joyful:
