February 400 Pts club

[Pheonix]

The goal is to complete 400 points worth of models in 1 month. at the end of the month, a poll will be created for best results. Winner will receive a seal to add to their signature.

Step 1: on February 1, Post no more than 2 photos of 400 points of ANY ARMY.
they may be in any state of assembly, but MAY NOT BE PAINTED (unless you're stripping them and repainting them)

Step 2: on February 1, Post a 400 point list of said models. The list does not have to be a playable army, however, the list must be legal in the strictest sense (that is, you may not list a Space marine with Rending Claws).

Step 3: at any time during the month, feel free to post updates, questions, thoughts, requests for suggestions or advice, etc.

Step 4: Start posting final pictures to me VIA PM on February 26. entries will be accepted until February 31.

(we will repeat the process in March, April and so forth)

SO! Post what you have!

(mods, can we get this thread pinned?)

I figure the painting club is a good way of encouraging me to complete a few more of my Eldar models. Think I might be being a tad ambitious here, however it would be great to get these done:

Nightwing - 285pts
One Warlock with singing spear - 28pts
Two Warlocks with witchblade - 50pts
Vyper with shuriken cannon & spirit stones - 60pts

Total: 423pts

unfortunatly i dont have the money to get models and partake in this one so il'l have to sit it out

[Scizor]

i will be away next week, meaning it won't be enough time for me. so sadly i have to pass on this month

[Pheonix]

@ Shiro i would Recommend upgrading the catapults to a cannon, in game terms it makes the vyper a super potent troop killer with some tank hunting.

Just want to say that I didn't participate this month because I primed & based my stuff already... so I would be cheating. But NEXT month I will be painting my 'Nids. Gonna give Scizor a run for his money!

Well... not really... but I can dream; can't I? Damn it!

[Scizor]

i might enter next month aswell, if i have enough unpainted stuff

[Mordheimer]

Ohh yeah? You want a piece of me? Me and my brushes ain't afraid of your... ahhh who the hell I'm kidding! I go and crawl to my hole.

In all seriousness, I think it would be fun. Some encouragement to finish my beloved Nids.

[Scizor]

yeh. it is really inspiring to do this. sadly as it is now, i dont have enough points unpainted. i just have a tyrant and a biovore. but i might buy a stealer box soon so hopefully that'll do it

Here's what I'm going to paint, it's recently glued, and I'll post the pics sometime this week.

-72 Termagaunts (432)
-72 Hormagaunts (720)
-1 Flying Hive Tyrant (200ish)
-3 Zoanthropes (195)
-16 Rippers

this sounds fun... I'm gonna go prime them...

edit: I should be able to finish this in a month, or at least MOST of the gaunts

[Scizor]

omg! thats many gaunts!

[boristfrog]

Maybe next month - I have too many other projects on the go at the moment
That is a lot of gaunts though OMG. I really hope you do them, I want to see 144 gaunts all painted and pretty and mean.

[Mordheimer]

Auxellion: Dude! Consider yourself officially insane! Go for it... we are 100% behind you. Its about time someone decided to change their Hive colors from Plastic Grey or Primed Black to something else!

[Aux]

yeah I'm actually going to start this next month.... I have wayyy too many painting commissions to do this month, aside from being grounded...

I'll post some pics though =]

[Mordheimer]

A grounded Hive Mind... that is an oxymoron!
