To boldly be eaten where no grot has been eaten before!
Time to go big or go home, and not crash in flames like I normally do. I've got better with my painting, time to really kick it up a gear.

I, Thundercloud, oath the following.

5 Cataphractii Terminators, from GW.
5 Tartaros Terminators, from GW.
5 Space Marine Scouts, from GW.
1 Chaos Hellbrute, from GW
1 Dark Eldar Jetbike, from GW.
1 Stage 1 Plague, from Mantic.
12 Cybermen, 8 individually based Cybermats and 2 Cybermat swarms from Warlord Games

For a total of 40 miniatures




This is an entire force of Cybermen, 2 miniatures I am painting for my youtube channel and my projects to get sorted before 8th edition drops.

I'll be making painting videos for the Tartaros Terminators, Scouts, Helbrute, DE Jetbike, Stage 1 Plague and Cybermen. The Cataphractii I will paint in store and may take them with me on a training event to get them finished there.

I'll be taking mine down to the wire. I've painted 39 out of 40 models, I only have the Chaos Helbrute left and I'll be speed painting it tomorrow night. Wish me luck guys.

Oath Complete.



A recipe for success - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zglKWkfaYvU
A flying start - DrewCarey Jetbike
A faithful replica - Cybermen

Monster Mayhem and There's more than one! - Stage 1 Plague from Mantic and GW Helbrute.

Easiest thing to paint this month - The Cybermen.

Hardest thing to paint - Ten Terminators. That's what I spent most of the month painting. However my Carcharadons now consist of Tyberos, 2 Venerable Dreadnoughts, 15 Terminators, 20 Tactical Marines and 5 Scouts, so I think I'm about ready for 8th.

More videos to follow when I have the time to edit and upload them.

Plans for next month - the terrain from Shadow War Armageddon, more terrain and enough Nurgle stuff to make 1000 points in 8th ed 40k. Possibly also more Doctor Who stuff ready to do some video batreps. I am really hoping I don't do 40 models again.

I, Thundercloud, oath 3 1/100 scale Zvezda Panzer IIs and 2 bases of Battlefront plastic Desert Rats infantry in 1/100 scale, undercoated using DAK spray from Army Painter/Battlefront.



I, Thundercloud, have finished my oath and claim Speed Painting.




Turns out desert colour tanks and infantry on desert bases are quick to paint.

I'll start making additional Oaths tonight. I don't want to be left rushing at the end of the month, so it'll be small additions throughout the month.

The biglys went together nicely and are a joy to paint. Not sorry I have two sets of the starter biglys.
