Re: Burning Up the Backlog.
Nice work on the nerds, Konrad.
As for me, I did actually manage to paint something this month, although not the Hungering Darkness I had hoped to get done. I have made progress on him, mind - he's base coated, and basic a/b work is done. I still need to do his pale bits (which is most of his back), and his teeth, which are many, varied, and found pretty much everywhere except his mouth
Anyway, what I did do was this. A salutary lesson in what happens when you go down to the basement of the honeypot. Drugs are bad, mmkay...
also, due to the potatocam nature of the iphone, you can't really see, but the eyes are chrome. It seemed like a good idea at the time...

Re: Burning Up the Backlog.
Looking great, @Konrad and @me_in_japan
Re: Burning Up the Backlog.
@Konrad - Those nerds are awesome. Paper rulebooks are still the best format.
@M_i_J - Those are some seriously creepy minis. Well done.
As for my own backlog, I hit my target.
First of all, 3 bits of scatter terrain.
13 steampunk-ish miniatures.
Doctor Grimwell and the Asylum crew for Malifaux.
Angel Eyes and the Half-Blood crew for Malifaux.
The Midnight Stalker and some old 1st Edition puppets for Malifaux.
And a Zombie Dragon for D&D.
And as if that weren't enough, 147 counters and tokens for Malifaux.

Re: Burning Up the Backlog.
Well, I said I would get a Plague Marine Kill Team done this month and here they are in all their gross glory.

Re: Burning Up the Backlog.
Nice work, Prim, as always your throughput is extremely impressive!
Also great Death Guard, @Tarkin - already dreading getting anywhere near that fist/plasma champion.

@Tarkin - Those Death Guard look great. Well done on hitting your target.
@Jye - Thanks, though 30 models is kind of a slow month.

Re: Burning Up the Backlog.
Well we are into November now and it seems we are missing a few posts.
Maybe folks have just been to busy painting to share their progress.
Anyway, to keep things chugging along, anyone wanting to play catch up can do so, and may even add a few minis to their pledge if they wish.
As for myself...
Come December I hope to be entering the annual Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge again, so I need to focus on getting minis prepped for that this month. As such, my pledge will be 5 painted minis and to assemble 100 minis and bits of terrain by the end of the month.

Re: Burning Up the Backlog.
I’m going to keep on with my honeypotters. I’ve got Graves, Tannen and two Beckoners on the bench at the mo. Hopefully I can finish them plus more this month.

Re: Burning Up the Backlog.
Well, I've got my 100 minis assembled for the month. The getting 5 models painted might be a challenge though.
39 models for the start of a 30K Space Wolves army.
10 Dark Angels Legion assault marines, thanks to Archmagos Jus for the figures.
6 World Eater Legion bikers.
11 Reaper minis.
15 WW2 US Airborne.
19 WW2 Waffen SS.
