I’ve left this thread abandoned for over a month huh. I did paint up 3 eliminators that anyone who was at great crusade would’ve seen just haven’t had time to paint recently life gets in the way and all that lol. Maybe I’ll have to shift my goal to a points amount instead of model total if I want to actually reach it. I saw question is doing 5k that might be a good idea since I painted like 2600 points of knights already this year 12k.... you know you wanna

I would love to be able to paint 12k in a year worst part is I for sure have enough/will buy enough to be able to have a crack. If I reach 5k which I should I’ll up the goal to 12k I’m solidarity with your goal!

Well it’s been a little while since I’ve gotten any hobbling done. Kinda really hit that hobby burnout there for a while. What brought me back? Nexus had full boxes of the death guard space marine heroes!! A box that from what I heard sold out in about 4 minutes on the GW store. Reeeeeally wanted that plague caster sculpt since it was Japan exclusive and finally having my hands on it plus seeing the death guard index really got my juices flowing again. Decided to get 4 blightlords done so I could have a full unit of 10 painted up. Also got the lord of virulence painted since he looks decent in 10th and also the stink wizard sculpt id been wanting. Was it a good idea to paint 2 characters and 4 terminators in a batch paint method? For a better painter probably not but I’m happy since I got them done pretty quick. imgur.com/a/V5QBuIF

Woah another post so soon after the last? Has my hobby slump finally passed? Let’s hope so! Painted up my invader atv after so long of me saying “I love this goofy Mario kart” essentially since I got one. Now I think I may need to paint up the outriders to accompany him that I’ve literally had primed blue since a little after indomitus dropped. imgur.com/a/4itO3Uu

Hmm maybe I need to get another one just to paint like a Mario kart! I also finished up a techmarine I was working on while I’ve been painting other stuff. imgur.com/a/q1yG7Iv

Painted up the outriders to go with my ATV. I expected to enjoy painting these guys a lot more than I did. Eventually I got to a point where I was like “screw it just get them done to a low standard so I can move on” they still look decent from a distance and I get to ferry them around with the atv and maybe a chaplain on bike so these guys should see a good amount of table time. imgur.com/a/7q7wKd8

We all have those models that just don't meet our hopes once we start painting them. They certainly look good for the table to me.

Well with leviathan finally out I had to decide which model from the box I wanted to paint up first and while I was building the space marine half I immediately knew it had to be the terminator captain. I LOVE this model. The pose is basic yet super cool. Painted him up pretty quickly but I’m pretty happy with him! imgur.com/a/QZqMyki

Such a nice job on the Captain! I like the head more than the GW scheme The back is also really cool- those vents are great
*Sidenote, I find it funny that details down to the wrinkles on the face are meticulously done by GW, yet after decades of space marines there's no bore holes in the stormbolter muzzles, which together are wider than his head, lol

Are y’all ready for the biggest jump in numbers I’ve had so far? I took my day off to paint all 10 of the infernus squad from leviathan. imgur.com/a/9ylUQvA
