Category: Painting Challenge

The final Hobby Challenge entry for 2019! Let’s have a look at what the intrepid challengees got up to in December…

Paul got the gnoll bug and painted some for Frostgrave, then realised he needed to paint some Giants. As is a common realisation amongst most people. All of this got derailed however by wielding the world bending powers of a God to forge a field of battle

• 

• 

• 

• 

Adam continued the trend of forging worlds from nothing by making a Frostgrave table

• 

• 

• 

• 

I painted some Stormcast Eternals to finish my army off, finsished my test White Scars for Epic and the Green Arrow as I desperately tried to complete one of my pledges (note: I failed)

The Pledges!

Name	Pledge	Progress	Comments
Tom James Lavers Bevell	1. Finish painting my Dark angels (there currently are at least 200 unpainted models, 80 of which are tactical marines) 2. Actually win a game with them!
Sam Parish	I have four cases of unfinished models. Some need some hobby work done, others just need painting. What I’d like to do, is have the club pick one of my boxes at random on a poll on the Games club page, and that’s the first box I work on.
James Dix	To complete my: Imperial Guard army (4000pts ish left to do) Prussian army Necromunda House Gangs
Alex Ede	Fully complete my heresy blood angels and sanguinius (if when he drops) roughly 1500pts left to go and place well with them in the heresy events And make a proper start and finish my ironjawz to 2500pts and then take them to an event at WHw
Paul Townsend	I aim to complete the equivalent of two elements (character, “troop” sized unit or war machine) for kings of war each month. Included in this at least 3 giants, complete my Frostgrave warband, napoleonic french, and get the Halfmen to a good playable size army. Game on!	I can report for December as being actually completed are eight Gnolls. By way of a roundup, I include a picture of my giants Shame – nowhere near hit that target…But, while not quite the direction of the pledge- one of my napoleonic projects had progressed far more than expected
David Last	1. Fully paint and base 200 models 2. Finish the small projects: Blood Bowl Team, Superhero Team 3. Attend 3 tournaments4. (Attempt to) run a Campaign at the club	14 Stormcast Eternals, 8 Epic White Scars stands, 1 Green Arrow 308/200. Complete! BBowl Team: 0 Supers: 3/5 Infinity Campaign: 6/6 Complete! Tournaments: 5/3 Complete!	I will count 28-32mm figures as one model, 5x6mm figures as one model, 3x10mm as one model, larger monstrous/warmachine/etc. figures may count as more than one model
Ross Packman	I’d like to get a Necromunda board finished, including multi-level terrain.
Mark Collins	I hope to rewrite and finish a third novel, World Without Bounds, for Easter and then write a fourth entirely new novel from scratch in the same series by Christmas.
James Jimmy Pownall	I want to be able to field 3k pts of skaven in 6th Ed fantasy fully painted.
Wes Saunders	I want to work on my painting techniques and at least enter some kind of painting competition
Adam Stallwood	I’d like to pledge a genestealer cult army for 40k. 2000pts (ish) worth	Frostgrave table complete
Eddie Turner	Take on GWs Lord of the Rings Hobby Bingo

And that’s us done for 2019!

Delayed getting this written up so apologies! But let’s see what the industrious hobbyists at the GGC have been up to…

Adam has some new converted Scouts using the Necromunda Enforcer models as a base plus look at that detailing on the bike consoles!

• 

• 

• 

• 

Paul is still building his monster menagerie like some kind of mad zoo keeper…now to wait for his players to actually roll them up on the random encounter tables.

• 

• 

• 

• 

I had a disjointed month, moved house, etc. so only painted 3 models proper. I did do some work to make an MDF army playable though.

I have another load of raptors on the painting desk som next month should be a better turn out for the year end. Looking to complete the raptors for two armies painted this year. Also been doing more frostgrave terrain for club campaign.

Happy Hobbying!

Another month another set of industrious painters at the GGC!

Adam finishes up some more models for his Genestealer Cult and adds to his new Space Marine project. Fantastic work with the OSL as always.

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

Paul has taken on a challenge for a big for Kings of War. That doesn’t stop him painting up some objectives for Frostgrave!

• 

• 

James Dix’s Imperial Guard force grows apace with a huge amount of work being put into it. Those cavalry are especially good but I really want to know how he does that dirty white on the tanks…

And I finished some dwarves for Lord of the Rings, a single Custodian Guard and Tom Bombadil with a custom base to mark his zone of control.

I certainly didn’t make my target this month, as I didn’t technically finish a single playable element….. but…..Tokens for Frostgrave “ulterior motives” all made and painted, and three elements of a halfling baggage train kit bashed together for no good reason or excuse other than I can!
David Last	1. Fully paint and base 200 models 2. Finish the small projects: Blood Bowl Team, Superhero Team 3. Attend 3 tournaments4.

I’ve managed to complete 5 infiltrators for my raptors, assemble and base coat a ‘slaplin’ for my Revilers. On the GSC side I’ve done an abominate who’s been sitting on the shelf for ages and start to upgrade my neophytes to have mining lasers and Webber, which is the current meta for dealing with eldar flyer spam. Need eight of each. It never ends!

With his Genestealer Cult tournament ready Adam could have taken his foot off the pedal. But nothing will hold him back from defending the Imperium of man! Some eminently rational space marines: Raptors!

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

Not to be outdone Paul’s legions of halflings gather apace, backed up by some giant armoured halflings from Italy and never before have I seen such appealing twigs. Just look at those goats!

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

I finished off the last bits of my LotR Elves with Gil-Galad, Haldir and Elrond, plus Gandalf ‘cos everyone needs a Gandalf. Then dove into my WW2 French for Flames of War. Plus some little airplanes for Epic.

Spurred on by thoughts of actually setting up the massive KoW game, the brushes have flown this month. Half an hour after work each day has been the aim, plus I had one day off which I spent painting the Romans. End result : – set of Gabion defences suitable for 28mm Two regiments of Roman Praetorians. Two regiments of half-bill-men (spearlings ). And a troop of goat cavalry to top it off. The green liveried shorties of Aletryon have arrived!

These guys are Raptors. A successor of the ravenguard and commonly known as sensible marine. These guys style of play have seen a massive boost with the new vanguard units and need a little love. I have just been painting the stuff I already have, left overs from dark imperium and shadowspear. Here are some pictures of the entire force to date, some where painted over a year ago though.

Happy Hobbying!

July is checking in with some fantastic work from the Guildford Games Club. Adam is here to dazzle us with object source lighting and some cheeky conversions from Kal Jherico and a Kasrkin to make more mutant pistolero

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

Paul’s halfling horde grows ever mightier with some trolls, ogre bodyguards, a financier and a goat mounted knightly prince. Not to be outdone by those hobbitses the Rohirrim rally to their banners

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

I painted some more elves for Lord of the Rings. Wood elves and some of the many (many many) elven heroes. Plus I added some bright orange and red remotes to my Infinity forces, who needs stealth when you’re the Invicincible Army

Happy hobbying!

June has been a quiet month on the hobby front but even that doesn’t mean there’s been no progress. Paul shows us just who the master of halflings is (as though that was a topic ever in doubt) but also dazzles us with some romans and an ogre.

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

I was rather less productive this month but I did manage to paint a pair of Infinity figures and some cavalry for Lord of the Rings

• 

• 

A new challenger approaches! Adam has more Genestealer Cultists with which to bring enlightenment to all of us citizens.

Lots of expendable brood brother and more abberants! Going for a take on the ‘muscle beach’ style list. We’ll see how it goes! It’s chess clocks and a horde army so going to need to speed up. I’ve still got to complete another kelermorph, 5 more abberants, 10 brood brothers and 20 acolytes for the 17th july. It’s going to be tight!

May is done and there’s been some very industrious work done this month. Let’s have a look!

Adam has built a display board to go with his Genestealer Cult, showing us where they are truly from. It looks fantastic!

• 

• 

Paul comes back swinging with two entire units and three characters. One and all little masterpieces. Just look at that half a Gandalf!

• 

• 

• 

•

I had a productive month, getting models done for several games. Sigmarines and Space Marines, French Recon troops and a mix of criminals and law enforcement.

After nothing at all to report last month, I made good progress this month even if it was polishing off projects already under way for some time! Regiment of halfling spears from westfalia. Converted regiment of “Honour guard” (halflings on GW Gryphon hounds), a halfling wizard from Hasslefree, an Ogre for frostgrave and finishing touches completed on Friar Tuck from Warlord Games!

And we’re back again with some hobby updates for April! Let’s see what people have been getting up to.

First up Adam continues his Genestealer Cult project, transforming some of those primed models from previous months into gorgeous, colourful, object source lit weapons of war! With all those yellows and blues is he some kind of secret Carolean?

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

•

Not to be outdone James brings the thunder! A veritable legion of Imperial armoured might to smash aside any foolish enough to argue the Emperor’s right to rule. Some ace painting too, jealous of that rusted, grubby white!

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

I painted a fairly eclectic mix of things. Some 10mm models to complete my Warmaster army for a tournament, continued building up my Invicible Army and a few Somua for Flames of War early war. Plus a few renegade space marines.

Lots of busy people hobbying this month! Let’s see what they’ve been up to…

First up Paul has used his willpower to resist the calling of halflings to instead bring us Rohirrim for LotR, some of the characterful Anyaral World of Twilight models and a converted Ogre

I have rather less focus and painted an assortment of bits and pieces. Completing two projects though. AoS Orcs (only took a year…) and AoS Endless Spells. As well as adding another few models to my Invincible Army for Infinity and starting some FoW Frenchmen.

The Pledges

Name	Pledge	Progress	Comments
Tom James Lavers Bevell	1. Finish painting my Dark angels (there currently are at least 200 unpainted models, 80 of which are tactical marines) 2. Actually win a game with them!
Sam Parish	I have four cases of unfinished models. Some need some hobby work done, others just need painting. What I’d like to do, is have the club pick one of my boxes at random on a poll on the Games club page, and that’s the first box I work on.
James Dix	To complete my: Imperial Guard army (4000pts ish left to do) Prussian army Necromunda House Gangs
Alex Ede	Fully complete my heresy blood angels and sanguinius (if when he drops) roughly 1500pts left to go and place well with them in the heresy eventsAnd make a proper start and finish my ironjawz to 2500pts and then take them to an event at WHw
Paul Townsend	I aim to complete the equivalent of two elements (character, “troop” sized unit or war machine) for kings of war each month. Included in this at least 3 giants, complete my Frostgrave warband, napoleonic french, and get the Halfmen to a good playable size army. Game on!	Rohan, Anyaral Noble knights, noble, and pack beast, and another beautiful Ogre I’m probably ruining with knife and putty! (And tin can…..)
David Last	1. Fully paint and base 200 models 2. Finish the small projects: Blood Bowl Team, Superhero Team 3. Attend 3 tournaments4. (Attempt to) run a Campaign at the club	1 Zuyong and 1 Daoying for Infinity, 6 orcs to finish my AoS army, the AoS Endless Spells, 6 AMD173 and a WW2 French infantry stand for FoW . Campaign: 96/200. Second round of Infinity Campaign completed	I will count 28-32mm figures as one model, 5x6mm figures as one model, 3x10mm as one model, larger monstrous/warmachine/etc. figures may count as more than one model
Ross Packman	I’d like to get a Necromunda board finished, including multi-level terrain.
Mark Collins	I hope to rewrite and finish a third novel, World Without Bounds, for Easter and then write a fourth entirely new novel from scratch in the same series by Christmas.
James Jimmy Pownall	I want to be able to filed 3k pts of skaven in 6th Ed fantasy fully painted.
Wes Saunders	I want to work on my painting techniques and at least enter some kind of painting competition		In terms of painting, I wanted to push myself this year and have decided to do these as my standard paint job – something to work up from. I tend to do a couple of simple base colours, a good helping of my trusty Army Painter strong tone, neaten, little highlight and then call it a day.
Adam Stallwood	I’d like to pledge a genestealer cult army for 40k. 2000pts (ish) worth	Another group of neophytes, squad leaders and special weapons and a couple of shots of the full squads, 2 x 10 neophytes and 15 acolytes. Also did 6 deathwatch terminators, to try out with the new bolter rules. The GSC really are starting to come together as an army. Only 7 weeks to go and 55 models
Eddie Turner	Take on GWs Lord of the Rings Hobby Bingo

Happy hobbying!
