-Finish painting on Wracks and do their bases
-Get my Scourges assembled and basecoated
-Clean up my Wyches and Warriors (they were my first units, so they ugly)

FAIL.

I finished the wracks and their bases (for the most part), but I didn't do jack squat with my Scourges and only did a bit with the Wyches and Warriors.

Finish building my Tantalus kitbash.

Convert another squad of Grotesques from Rat Ogres.

And as a bonus, 40K permitting - finish painting and installing the new baseboard and door-frame trim upstairs in my house!

Voidraven and Grotesques done - see my army thread.

Tantalus - was always going to be a bit of a stretch last month, so no surprise that it's not done.

Baseboards & house trim - Grrrrrrr!

Overall, I am happy with what I realistically achieved.

But I promise I'll build a couple of miniatures at least, probably a scourge and a haemonculi.

I just managed to come half-way on four scourges.

Actually start a project log.

And if Tamiya's factory in Japan comes back online- buy and apply the Teal Clearcoat to these vehicles and last month's Venoms/Ravager.

Rough month of grad school and teaching. Managed to get the sail on the Wyches raider done and a couple of other details, converted and almost finished painting my Blasterborn. Started a project log. Still no word on the availability of the Tamiya Clear colors.
Nowhere near done on converting the Wrack's raider or assembling(let alone painting) the Ravager. My wife is leaving to China for three weeks. Hope to get some painting done next month. Damn I sucked this month. Mad

A day late on the October deadline, but I managed to paint 10 Wracks, 10 "count as" Wracks and 10 Scourges.

I also managed to convert a Trueborn squad of 2 Splinter Cannons and 6 Trueborn with Shardcarbines. Just one more to finish the squad.

If only I could get to start on those vehicles...

I got what I outlined done. Then Western MA got rocked by a sweet Nor'Easter, and I haven't had power since. Still won't until Sunday or so, relocated with the family to my sister's in Boston Wink

I really need to get some sort of camera to post pictures of what I have done so far. Not having one has been a really limiting factor on my participation here lol.
