I am now in my third month of the Tale of an Epic Gamer painting project.

It has been fun and I've made really good progress so far. For March, I've decided to focus on Tyranids.

My goal for the month (NetEpic Gold) is a Hive Tyrant Brood, a Tyranid Warrior Brood, 2 Genestealer Broods, 2 Hormagaunt Broods, and a Termagaunt Brood.

I'm hoping to surpass my goal again and get a few extra models painted. I'm hoping that the washing will go quickly.

I've made some good progress and have gotten lots of infantry painted. Most are glued to the bases and now I just need to texture the bases.

It was a productive weekend.

VERY crisp work on what I find to be quite difficult old plastics.

I'm a bit late finishing my March goal, but better late than never.

I like how these turned out. I mostly based 4 models per 40mm x 20mm base. For the stealers, most of them have 3 models per base and then a piece of a rubble building. This is to help me stretch out the models I have. I thought about doing it for everything, but decided against it. I might add rubble when I do the next batch, but I'm not sure.

The army includes:

Hive Tyrant Brood
Tyranid Warrior Brood
2 Hormagaunt Broods
1 Termagaunt Brood
3 Genestealer Broods

In NetEpic Gold, this force gives me a total of 1,200 points. Not a bad start for an army.

More can be seen at my blog. http://gamingandshooting.blogspot.com/2015/04/tale-of-epic-gamer-march-goal-achieved.html

Overall good stuff - especially nice dark vegetation contrast on the bases.

First of all, I would like to thank everyone for the kind words. The encouragement has really helped me keep on task and working toward my monthly goals.

I've made good progress and have completed about 5,000 points of models so far this year. I'm going to be taking April off so I can work on finishing up a terrain project. I'm making a sink hole table for BattleTech, but it will also work for Epic and other games.

You can see details of the sink hole project here. http://www.tacticalwargames.net/taccmd/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=29366

I will be back to the Tale of an Epic Gamer in May with some Imperial Guard.

I really like the idea of the sink hole terrain, makes me think about the landscapes you get in Dwarf Fortress.

After a month off, I'm excited to get back to work.

I will be working on Imperial Guard this month and have a decent start already. I've got an infantry company in the works and pulled out some sentinels and Leman Russes to get them ready for the paint table.

Below you can see a sample of the colors I will be using. The helmet color will change for different units.

You can see more of my projects and the goal for the month on my blog.
