rudra34 Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Alright everyone, how close are you cutting it to the wire this year? We still have months to go, but I'm sure some of you still have huge amount of painting to do. I'm no different, but I'm cranking out as much as I can with a full schedule. To be ready, I have this much to go: 30 Gors 10 Harpies 5 Centigors 2 Razorgor 1 Chariot Doombull Great Shaman BSB 2 Big Beasts for Transformation 6 Trolls Ghorgon (Mostly complete) A long list? Yes. Am I worried? NEVER! Everyone buckle down and get those brushes out, because I'm sure that I'm not the only one with a long way to go! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatdave Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I've been too busy not painting to post this thread, but I have thought about doing it.... I still have exactly the same number of models to build and paint now as I did when I came up with my list 8-9 months ago. Actually, now that I think about, it I have more as I decided to pick up and paint a new Hunter rather than upgrade the one I have mostly done. My list: Build and paint: Hunter 4 Sabertusks Stonehorn (still on the sprue :( ) 20 Gnobbers Conversion work on my Leadbelchers Finish painting 20 Gnobbers Highlight my characters, Ogres and Leadbelchers. And work on one of my Giants. That's it I think. I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to paint: 20 orcs 2 boar chariots 5 boar boys 2 doom divers And I need to base maybe 50 models. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Somebody is always more behind than you. Every year I find myself up late the night before the event, finishing models or trays. Or worse, I just show up with still-wet, freshly finished infantry :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentP Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 1 Giant (half done at this point) 1 Stonehorn 1 Skaven Warlord on Brood Horror (for Warlord Ghrom) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach_5 Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Shorter list than some here, but I've got:Convert and paint a Corpse Giant (NecroColossus) Build and paint 6 crypt horrors. And I'll go ahead and add to the list that I have to play a few games so I can remember how to play this game. ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewgeddon Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Hmm, lets see here... -6 Maneaters (already basecoated) -1 Sabertusk (also basecoated) -1 Giant (need to purchase / assemble / paint) -1 Gorger (^ditto) Also need to make / magnetize 2 new movement trays, add static grass to the entire army, and figure out if I'm going to make a proper display board, or stick with / modify my "cork board with painted sand" that I threw together the night before last year. Also: PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE! Need to get some games in for sure. Not super overwhelming, but I refuse to start on anything until finals are over next week.

Murphy'sLawyer Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 I have been slacking but not that bad. The big challenge will be my 40 man Halberd unit but my knights are half way painted. The Griffon I want to bring I still need to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kremmet Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Thankfully I swapped armies so my paint load is rather low. Just gotta convert up a dwarfy Truthsayer and twelve Irondrakes, paint em, and make a new movement tray for the drakes and I'll be ready to go.

Paint and finish building the Luminark (50% done with bulid) Paint and finish building ambulance war alter (80% done with build) with Arch Lector Paint Hurricanum Paint 2 Witch Hunters, 2 Priests, Wizard Build and paint Captain BSB Paint Captain on pegasus Finalize and paint movement trays Create and paint movement tray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
