Looking for some info on the painting guide rubric for clubs. I saw a few scratch built models. What are the criteria for scratch built. Do all parts have be non gw. Or is there a %ratio. Does 3rd party models count as scratch built? I think i have an idea on everything else. Going to have to practice some non metallic metal painting. Any good videos or sites people have found?

if under 50% of the model is from an actual kit, then I'd count it as scratch built. Just jamming some existing kits together however is NOT a scratch build. There actually has to be sculpting involved.

Thanks. I felt rusty.
This model has like 4 layers of repaint .. but I think it adds to the living metal approach. I also didn’t notice that there was dust on it until I applied paint. Again living metal.
It is very dark. I think I need some thing to make it pop. Maybe yellow edge highlight. Or more brass detail.

Finished this guy off last week. imgur.com/a/Vo3Fpi7I primed my voltanns today. Took forever to put them together. I found it to be very meticulous. I then put together a Doomstalker and it took a less than 15min. Voltann models look awesome though. I did realized that Leagues of voltann are just sontarian from dr. Who. They are all clones .

Well last night i went through my pile of shame and found models i didnt know i had. And a lot of them. I then made a list of all the projects i wanted to do. They were as follows.
Leauges of voltann (beam me up squaty) TOS inspired. Stampeding squigalanche Deathwatch I though i got rid of all my marines but i was wrong. I have lots. (EITHER PAINT THEM AS DEATHWATCH or make a new chapter and learn how to air brush) Yellow camo salamanders (HH) More Tauformers (2 riptides and a tau’unar) + 2 hammerheads a flyer and a devil fish. Lots of crisis (just more decepticons). New camo scheme for guard NECRONS…. oh where do i begin with this. I have lots of unpainted necrons and necrons from sets i have bought from people. They need to be under one unifying paint scheme. (Also a good opportunity to learn to air brush) Szarekhan Dynasty, Have some old pewter raiders and immortals need to paint them up for the silent king. Also need to paint up some Triarch .like 30 of them. Nids. 1500 points of hormagaunts and termgaunts with 4 monsters. And some gene stealers
So i am officially bowing out for 2022 challenge. And just jumping into 2023 with dealing with my pile of shame. not buying new models until i paint and model 10,000 points if this shame pile.

That's quite the pile of stuff to paint Chris! I'm kinda in the same boat!
an airbrush - even just for priming and basecoating the initial main colour, will save you a TON of time
