Haven't been in this corner of the forums in a while, so much great stuff to catch up on, it's all looking great, folks! I'm going to TRY and commit to five Ellyrian Reavers for the month, but life has been so busy! But I've been playing a few games, and I need that second unit of Reavers to give my deployment some flexibility.

20 Chaos Warhounds done: They don't look great from the front - I should have taken a side photo. Work is ongoing on the Cockatrice, and it looks like I may get more done in April than predicted. Since canines are the order of the day, I've started on the Dire Wolves.

Mist Wreathed swamp is done I got a battered rock lobbed done as well as I hadn't factored how long Sculptamould takes to set I. The tropics... I kitbashed this to be the firmir of the swamp, but I loved her too much so I don't want to lock her into only being terrain

And the Cockatrice is done: Rather more colourful than originally intended. It looks a bit like a demented toy from a nightmarish Happy Meal, but that seems appropriate for a creature of Chaos.

Just some. And well done. Over here, I was planning to paint knights. But this happened. (Knights still the plan)

Super late to this months thread. Anyway!
- More Ogres are on the table, the "one Ogre a week" project goes on...
- ... and I am actually at four finished Ogres this month already.
- The club&fists Ogres are supposed to get their command group...
- ... as are the Gnoblars.
- Maybe some pictures, finally?
In light of the most recent TOW news I also have this weird urge to start a fresh VC army with the newest sculpts and 25mm bases for baseline infantry.

So... This month ny first child will be born. Probably 2 weeks in, if not a little earlier. So what i want to do is to at least finish the many half done dwarfs on my working area. Many of them are at some stage of sub assembly but fully painted, others are actually finished and just need basing. All in all we're looking at less than 20 miniatures. I'm confident I can get them done. After that.... I have no idea if or when I'll have time to pick up a brush again I'm a couple months ahead of you in the newborn department and while it's much harder, I assure you it is possible to get the occasional chilled painting session in so never fear! Best wishes for the next few weeks. I pledge 1 painted mini ready for the battlefield. I didn’t know buddy - congrats!

Gents you are knocking it out the park again. sedge - what red did you use on the cockatrice? wundapantz your output is staggering! From my side, I finished the last 15 but rather than just show them, I thought I’d take a shot of the finished unit, complete with 2 sets of command in case I ever want to field them as two units. I will say it’s one of the most slapdash basic paint jobs I’ve ever done but it works from a distance and this army is about speed painting to get it on the table.

I finished my bolt throwers! I'm almost finished with my 10 Warriors, just have to do their bases and their shields. Waiting for the varnish to dry on their shields so I can apply transfers.

The photos aren't massive, but from what I can see of those classic spearelves, they look good - particularly the shading on the shields. sedge - what red did you use on the cockatrice? Khorne Red, highlighted with the usual Wazdakka Red, Squig Orange, diluted Carroburg Crimson wash, and possibly a little of the orangy Edge paint too. I rarely go near Mephiston Red, which is too 90s space marines for my liking - I only ever use it as a contrast to Khorne Red for a model that has both red armour and red cloth.
