6 Month Challenge: More Scrap Dog Raiders in progress!

Well I didn't make a lot of progress on the 6 month challenge this week.  I've been spending most of my hobby time working on some campaign rules for my next Solar Empires, No Limits campaign.  I did manage to work a bit on another unit of Scrap Dog Raiders but I still have quite a bit to do on them.

6 Month Challenge: Ghost Legion Pirates!


Well I finally finished the first few squads of my Ghost Legion pirate crew for the Solar Empires setting.  These are all Reaper IMEF and NOVA troopers because this pirate force split off from the Star Guard mercenary company.

6 Month Challenge: Battlesuits and Riflemen.

Okay so I haven't had the best start to the 6 month miniature painting challenge.  All I have managed to do in the last week was assemble some new stuff for my Hell Knights mercenary army.  I didn't pick up a single brush this week in fact mostly I just went to work and slept.  I've really been wanting to get both of these squads put together for a while now.  I've only been running with one Battlesuit in my Hell Knight army and that character was taken out of the action for our home campaign so I don't plan to filed that one any time soon.  Also these are converted from toys made from some type of vinyl material and when I painted the first Hell Knight battlesuit I used a clear coat that caused it to off gas.  I plan to strip it down and repaint it soon.

The riflemen are pretty important because I will have a full platoon of these troops when I finish them and that has been a goal for a while now.  I have over 50 troops in the Hell Knight army but they are mixed between several types of squads.  I want to have a platoon of core troopers then expand to a platoon of veterans, heavy infantry, and scouts.  This will finish up the first platoon.

6 Month Lead Mountain Challenge!

Okay I've joined a 6 month lead mountain painting challenge to help me clear some of my project backlog.  You can find the rules here:  http://wastelandminiatures.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-6-month-mountain-reduction-painting.html

They have a facebook page if you are interested in joining here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ConqueringTheLeadMountain/

This one will be kind of difficult for me because I was planning on starting two new forces and I won't be able to buy those figs during the challenge.  I'll just have to do some heavy hint dropping around my birthday and the holidays.  :)
