Well with all the visitors, outings etc, I was somehow able to finish these (no idea how so please do not ask) :)

Before I painted these I looked at all others examples and found that they did not fit my idea of Daemon Engines for this force. What I wanted was:
1. Individuality between all the machines - afterall they are all different, no?
2. No stark reds and clean whites (my red is dark and my whites are dirty - may not be evident by the photos)
3. A machine look

So below is what came out and I am really happy with them. With a pallet of about 4-5 colours I was able to meet my objective. Also, yes, the daemon faces have been painted half darkish-red - this was an idea I have for these guys making a mess by coughing up blood for all their kills - somehow it transfers - just work with me on this one. :D

Also I used green stuff to re-work the front of the cannons to give them edging as I did not really like the Blunderbuss look.

So with the Khorne Support Engines (Cannons of Khorne) adding another 275 points, this takes my total for this month alone to 1425 points.

Not sure whether I will get another 75 points done to take me to 1500 for the month - let's just see how we go ;)

Note: I have no idea whether the models I painted above were originals or recasts but I was missing detail on just about all of them. I used the idea that extra armour had been hastily fitted over these areas (battle repairs?) so as not to encourage people to pick out the lack of detail where it was evident.

I just got caught up on this thread and saw that "swab your decks" thing that might become your BB. I need to get a couple of BBs for my fleet and was wondering about that model (the big one):

1. Is it metal, resin, plastic or some alien organic material? (please don't say the latter)

2. Do you have a link for these models? I'm unfamiliar with GZG.

I would say that I am a big fan of BFG, not that we play it that often. It is one of the best designed games GW ever came out with (which is why it ended up in SG). Very clean and consistent.

Cheers,

The Ground Zero games fullthrust lines are all metal. The Nation that perticular ship is from is the New Swabian League.

Thanks Cuban. I was going to get to that ... eventually ;)

Well I am happy to advise an addition of 187.5 points (World Eater Legionnaires from the Berserker Retinue) to this months total.

Image

I am going to downgrade one of the Dredclaws to 50 points (to be used by Chosen and not Berserkers) which then brings my total for this moth alone to 1562.5 points - Woohoo! Made the target set at the start of the month :)

For the entire TOEG2010 I was able to complete my full allotments of points (Aug - Dec 5 months @ 500 points = 2500 points). My actual points are as below:

August: 550 points
September: 600 points
October: zip
November: zip
December: 1562.5 points

Total achieved over TOEG2010: 2712.5 points

Here is a pic of the entire force so far (~3400+ points)

The thing that makes me sad is that I probably have just as many points (or more!) sitting there to paint/convert to finally finish this force :(

Cheers all!

Nice job ! Very convincing. I am really ashamed by the state off my TOEG results.

I am still painting. I hope to get 8 Doom Blasters finished by the end of January.

They are easier to paint than the cannons, however not sure if they will look as neat as them - so little areas of difference ::)

I am still going with it - just not posting anything until it is finished.

Should have more towards the end of the month
