1,500 pts in a Month: Last Day - All Done

All Done, wow what an experience it has been working on these guys and after day for an entire month. I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to get it done. But here I am, 1,500 pts in the bag all painted to the highest quality I've ever done before.

Let me just say thanks to those guys who helped me get the bits and stuff I needed to get the project done on time. I can't wait for Astro Tomorrow, it's going to be a blast!!!

Well off to class I go, crossing my fingers that I get at least 5 hours of sleep before the tourney, lol.

1,500 pts in a Month: 5 Days to Go - Vet Squads

Hey everyone, sorry for the little progress, but man school has had me freaking busy. Who knew you could cram 2,500 pages of reading into a couple weeks. Well anyways, here's the work I've been doing.


This is one of the Inquisitor vets squads, as you can see it's going to be lead by Bastonne.

And here are the guys done, without Bastonne and two other special weapons that I was waiting on bits for.

A quick picture of my inquisitor with a new Combi-Melta.

Here are the conversions I had to do for the Melta Cadians.

And the conversions for the catachan metlas.

And boom, painted guys... yeah I know I forgot to take pics while painting them, oh well. So here are some finished pics of them, led by Harker, my other interrogator. Enjoy.

1,500 pts in a Month: 19 Days to Go - The LRC

Ok, so I'm so excited to have this one done, I took a break Friday and didn't do any work but then did about 3-4 hours of painting saturday and another 10 or so on Sunday and boom it was done. It took a lot of patients to do and being the first Land Raider I've painted a bit of learning here and there. I'm very pleased with the way it came out though, and the weathering effects that I was able to achieve.

Now I'm going to build and prep my first squad of vets and hopefully have them painted along with my Assassin and Inquisitor by the end of the weekend, that'll just leave me one more squad of vets and a chimera to paint :)

1,500 pts in a Month: 21 Days to Go - GK Troops Done

Hey everyone, so I'm pretty pleased with myself at the moment because last night I finally finished the work on the Grey Knight Troops, a ban of 5 Grey Knight Terminators with a Grand Master and a Squad of 7 Grey Knights in Power Armor. I'm very happy with the way they've come out, and was not expecting the amount of time it would take to get to this point, spending probably close to 40 hours to get the two squads done.

But I think they came out quite nicely, so today I'll be working on the Land Raider Crusader as I just finished gluing it together. Expect to see some pictures on that in the next couple of days. And then I get down to the painting some IG Vets :)

So as always you can click the pictures for larger size, enjoy the ones below.

1,500 pts in a Month: 23 Days to Go

Ok so Tuesday I started working on the Grey Knight Terminators.

It took me pretty most of the day Tuesday to get the silver onto them.

Then yesterday I started adding the trims, here is the Gold.

The reds.

The Scroll work and the whites.

Here are just about done, just a little bit more work to do on the bases, and face (I hate painting faces) and then I'm going to try the new technique for the Nemesis Weapons and they should all be done tomorrow. And if I can manage that then maybe I can manage painting their Land Raider too!

Wish me Luck :)
