So the next one November to December will be longer, I think about 20th of December so just under a week longer, the pinks are getting released in 2 weeks and I'll be using those on the tanks and heavy weapon Centaurs. After reading some of the source material I need to check the kanji for kangaroo 袋鼠, I also need my glasses so I can see that as I write this, which will be the name of the Centaur. After getting my glasses, that's going to be fun to try and paint.
And so I don't forget and start something else November to December is the Storm Lord and The Boogers.
My army also calls for some Tempestus Scions and some Valkyries. Let's just say that's probably a 2027 project, before I start on the Exodites.
Okay so the plan for this month, finishing the tanks, all 3 Rogal Dorns, the Leman Russ and the 2 Centaurs, the rider squads and the command squad.
Review Time
Work has been a monster this period, and will be until pretty much Christmas so small steps.
I finished these off with a Mirky Mire wash, just need names for the 3 of them, just the weapons left to go, I just need to find the blue wash for them or maybe Nuln oil...
I'd had these guys in my house for a while not touched so looking at another week of sleep late, sleep, late I broke the cycle with the Lego mini figures.
Over the course of the month I'd thought about next year's Exodites project and was wondering if I could do something similar to the Wraith Lords I did a few years ago with Wraith Guard and Wraith Blades.
So I grabbed a single Wraith Guard and some Kurnoth Hunters bits and a box of them for later, and put this one together. I think it will work with more time applied as this was just a rough up.
I'm still down 1 Rogal Dorn in this picture, I got everything out to try and see where I was up to.
I got the dazzle Centaur done and gave it a wash with the watered down Ratling Grime and was very happy with the outcome. Again it's just the wash on the tracks and bogies that needs doing.
Then there was the preview show with those excellent Orlock Ogryns. Literally cannot wait until I get my hands on those guys, while I wait I got this old relic out of deep storage and, frankly, used him as a test piece for the army "uniform", I also gave the base some of the desert sand basing material I have. I honestly can't wait to get my hands on these Necromunda guys, I'd even pay full retail.
I made a start on the 30 tank riders getting the pink horror on trousers and other bits.
My larger Tiberos had some progress, added some green stuff to the leg and the 0.5 mil ball bearings pushed in as bonding studs. Fiddly little things. Plan is to paint him with the Power and Water section of this army as both will be mostly grey.
I picked up some blue black paint from AK interactive, which is kind of close to Corax black looking at it and used it on my "regular Commissar". I borrowed some arms from the command squad sprue to give this one a plasma pistol and power sword. I still need to finish the arms and weapons off.
These still need a wash plan A is Mirky Mire, thinned a little bit, then it's weapons, hair and matching base rims so I can see at a glance which Centaur they've jumped out of...
