Starting March with this Dark Reaper Exarch.

Converted to make him useful...that bolo thing made no sense game wise.

Cheers,

PS: Just noticed the them for March is "Quantity has a quality all of its own!",,, since I have painted my pile of shame my entry this month will be a low number.
All the Exarch’s had strange Weapon options but that was by far the oddest to give to the long range missile launcher squad!!

Yeah, I think I’ve got at least one Web of Skulls in a bits box somewhere…. Snip! Snip! But I think I replaced mine with a sword? Not really an improvement…

Maybe it was like Lion-O’s sword from Thundercats and it could give him “sight beyond sight” - then he could at least tell his troops where to shoot!!! 🤣
 
More work on the 'canvas'.

@Captain Brown how did you do that canvas? A friend of mine is making terrain and was wanting to do some tarp covered items.

On my front, I finished the Sector Fronteris terrain Wednesday. I did the Sergeant's replacement arm and extra Reiver and finished them yesterday. The Chaos Legionaires went back in the box as I kind of lost the drive to do them for some reason.

Instead today I built a GSC Acolyte Hybrid team (the models from the KT 1.0 'Starn's Disciples' box) along with the Acolyte Hybrid Icon Bearer (KT 1.0 Commander model). I've been trying to use the KT 1.0 models I have for 2.0 so they're not wasted sitting in a box. If the weather is nice tomorrow I'll prime them up and start painting.

I also have a set of Hybrid Metamorphs that I'll be building for the team. I know the Wrymblade rules are better but I'm going to use the Brood Coven to start since their rules are easier. Anyway, I should have a few more models to post on this months FYSC thread when it comes up.
 
Greyhart,

They are dried out baby wipes (unused of course). I cut out a rectangular shape that would cover the chipboard base. Then dipped the wipe in a mix of PVA and water to make it malleable. And applied it to the chipboard base. Worked the folds and let it dry hard.

Credit for the idea is The Cult of Crafting.

Hope that helps.

And while you finish up your huge quantity of March goodness, the Spirits of the Mystery Ritual has blessed us with a new theme for April!

Born in the Purple
-finish something with purple on it.

So there you have it, purple is the new orange. Have fun with it! I really should paint something soon...

I have done a bit of making stuff, but not sure I've done any painting all month (something I can at least partly blame on the cold, wet weather). I hope to get something done in April though, possibly involving purple.

Yay! I made the list again!

Guess I have to up my game a bit, stuff competition here.

And why purple for Emprah's sake?! Now I have to find something in my pile of shame that needs purple as a color and finish it in a week! I CAN'T TAKE THE PRESSURE! It's too much.. <faints>

.. fine. <sighs>

So, since the theme is 'quantity has a quality of it's own". My single metal Eldar Exarch conversion has grown with a large amount of scatter terrain.

Two uncovered scatter terrain.

Some blocking terrain.

Scaling ladders.

So a much larger submission.

It's purple because you need it, @Greyhart. The spirits know!

Also, you have all of April to finish something. So a month, at least.

Well.. purple isn't a color I normally use but strangely enough a week and a half ago I started painting the GSC Hybrids from the Kill Team 1.0 Starn's Disciples box. I "should" have them done by the end of the month for something purple - ish.

Purple is the theme for April, so you may need to slow down...
 
Slow down?

SLOW DOWN?!

You speak heresy!

.. actually in my post I meant be the end of the month of April. But I may have at least 3 done by the end of this month.

This might be a challenge as I have no Eschers to paint at the moment and I have not painted Genestealers since the original Space Hulk.
