Yesterday's model... today!

Right, my one thing a day challenge is already off to a bumpy start. Life got in the way of painting a model yesterday, but I made up for it today! Even though I did cheat a bit :P

First off, here's the Necron Lord with the green rod added:

Then, here's the Grey Hunter I promised:

He's actually part of a Kill Team I've painted up for my local GW's 'Tale of Many Gamers'. We paint 200pts the first month, then another 300 next month, and from there 250pts each month, up to 1500. Here's what I've done this month:

A Lone Wolf with Chainfist and Stormshield
Grey Hunters pack
- 4 normal Grey Hunters
- 1 with Meltagun
- 1 with Mark of the Wulfen

And now for how I managed to still paint one model for yesterday, and one for today, without it costing me all day long:

Scarabs are models too ;-) As always, thanks for reading!

Day one: Necron Lord with Warscythe

By the time I finished this guy yesterday, there was no proper light to take decent pictures, but here goes, my first achievement in my one thing a day challenge:

I'm pretty happy with how he turned out. Painting the right eye was a pain, couldn't reach it properly cause his arm's in the way. Green rod will be added at some point today :)

Today's model will be: a Grey Hunter

One thing a day!

Because of my recent graduation, I've moved on from being a student, to being unemployed! Stepping up in the world ey?

Anyway, since I now have all the spare time I want (or don't want) I figured I'd challenge myself to a 'One thing a day challenge' to get my models painted.

So, I've decided to try and do one model every day (or spend 2 hours on a larger model) and post my results on here.

Coming up later today: Necron Lord with Warscythe.

Necron release date published?

Just saw this on BoLS:



This probably means Necrons advance orders will be up this Saturday, one week before the rumoured release. I for one, can't wait! Add salt to taste...

Updated Loganbomb

Wew, been far too long since I last posted, but between graduating university and travelling from one end of the country to the other (only takes about 2 hours, it's tiny) twice, I havent had much time.
