Since ryryak has taken a little break from the hobby, I decided to pick up where he left off with the monthly painting challenge! I really like this and want to see it continue. I'll get us started: I did manage to finish this Swarm of Rats last night. I've also got these projects all over the place that I'm putting together: So I think that my goal for this month will be: Finish Grom on foot (finally), Finish the Balewind Vortex, Finish assembling my Skitarii army, Finish painting the 25 Empire Halberdier detachment, Make more progress on my 20 Longbeards. That should give me a good start for this month.

mottdon, thanks for keeping the monthly challenge going.
Grom on foot is on top of your list and, rightly so. He looks nicely bloated already.
My pledge for this month: a grudgethrower, a gyrocopter and a lord on shield. But, hobby can't be all fun all the time. There should be a certain amount of character-building grind, right? So, I will also do some (~10 or so) Empire state troops. I need to round out some regiments.
p.s. I got a notification: "mottdon is following you". Looked over my shoulder, didn't see anybody suspicious. Social media are so creepy!

To avoid having any 'completed' armies I'm switching back to Wood elves again. Even with the new total war warhammer massively eating into my time (at least until the wife throws a fit with her aversion to computer games) and a trip to Grand Duchy of Luxembourg later in the month, I'm going to, for once, try and put in a realistic pledge to:
Repaint 10 of the first released plastic WE archers Paint 15 of the second released plastic WE archers Paint 1 Lord on Great Stag
If I even get that far (or bored with archers) then I'll add:
Bsb on foot Make a start on the Wildriders.

That's weird he is following me too! How can he be at two places at the same time? 😊 my pledge for this month will be: Finish first varanguard unit/conversion as BSB Bloodsecrator used as on foot BSB Finish skullkrushers (painted halfway by the previous owner) Finish Deamon Prince (painted halfway by the previous owner) Assemble and paint the second unit of Wild Riders And finish my first house!

I think I'll say I'm done on Grom on foot now. I also finished this little Night Goblin Shaman last night as well. I hope you like them!

Fascinating photo....Belakor looks so small in it! Anyway, I'm going to pledge a single completed model once again. Possibly Jabba the Hut or his Warhammer equivalent.

grandmasterwang, yeah feel like the GWs models are growing... had this discussion with my friend. My belakor do feel small next to a varanguard or skullcrusher.

Strutsagget , that's a great looking bsb. One week in and this is the state of my pledge Stonethrower mostly done. Lord and gyro assembled. And then there are state troops in various states of disarray.

I think between finishing the previous months pledges (last batch of Chaos Dwarf Axemen), Total War Warhammer 2 distracting me, and having to move out for a little bit whilst our bathroom is demolished and rebuilt I will probably not be making any new promises this month I did finish my Black Coach though, will post it up once I get a chance to take a proper picture of it
