Squaduary Week 3- Painting complete

This week I have finished the third week of Squaduary, completing the painting on my Deathwatch Veterans. 

Squaduary is a month-long Hobby challenge to get a squad painted up over the month. The event is being run by Rory at Stepping Between Games

This week, real life has got in the way, so I only got the painting finished yesterday evening. I am quite happy with how the squad has turned out. There were a few errors In noticed when taking the photos, so will try and correct them this week. 













All I have left to do is the bases on the models and they are complete.

  1. Lovely. Just bases to do? Small observation rather that criticism, I'd have painted the 'slug' end of the shotgun shells Leadblecher as 'Brass' is generally for the casing... but completely arbitrary as normal shotgun shells would be plastic casing and lead shot etc... but just my preference I guess :)

    1. Cheers Siph. I'll probably leave them as they are, as they match my other painted ones at the moment.

    2. The Tree Revenants are done. Waiting to reveal them next week. My nights off start tomorrow so I'm aiming to finish the Kurnoth Hunters tomorrow night. I may go for a bonus round and try get the Spite Revenants finished. They will not be as time consuming as the Tree Revenants. They don't have weapons and I figured out how to paint the skin. It's been a good #squaduary.

  3. Hey Michael, you know those Deathwatch look all nice and well - but when's the Genestealer Cult coming? I've been watching another video batrep and they're a really really mean army. Can't wait to see them HERE :)

    1. Good to hear from you again Chris! Don't worry, Genestealer Cult is the next big project coming in March. I'll be doing a run of battle reports while I try to get them painted, so hopefully you won't mind reports with a sea of grey.

    2. Thanks! I haven't played 40K in a while but keep checking in here now and then. March sounds excellent, and the Grey Tide will drown quite a few enemies I'm sure, so it's all good!

    1. Thanks Pink! Not a patch on your skills, but I am very happy with them. Only a few more to do until the army is complete (at least for now!).
