Managed to win an auction for a motorised chassis last night (and has a DCC chip already fitted which makes life simpler when the planned railway upgrade occurs in a few years time) so once it arrives and has been tested I'll be able to build the first mockup armoured hull for the locomotive in card. It's only got 6 wheels rather than 10 though, if there's enough space I'll find a way to fit two more axles and add the remaining wheels so long as it'll still run ok on the existing track. Next I just need to find some old cheap wagons that I can strip the bolsters and bogies from for the other carriages, already got some on my watch list ...

Latest updates to the project will be posted in my blog here: blog/Spack/ So far got the basic shells of the loco and tenders modelled, and will be adding details to them during the coming week.

1. Finish painting DKH: Dead Rising
2. Put together and paint DKH: Green Menance
3. Assemble all my Mantic Orcs
4. Paint my krudger on slasher
4. Paint some Ultramarine bits

Bonus stuff might creep in too :)

Things have changed somewhat.

I completed Dead Rising and also Pandora (which wasn't on the list). Now however, because I'm a Pathfinder for Mantic I'm participating in the Clash of Kings ("tale of 4 gamers"-esque) painting and army building project. The full blog is on the Mantic forums but I'll post finished pictures on here.

Final 6 gargoyles. This is all the tyranid stuff until any new releases, so I finished with a couple of weeks to spare before I get the whole army out for a photoshoot. I did run out of a few paints doing this, and after adding the new stuff up realised I've painted 2300pts worth in the last 3 months! I then sat updating the master army list, and noted that without pimping stuff out with abilities, biomorphs, etc and with magnetised models only counting base cost and not including spore mine clusters or broodnests (variable point costs) I've got 19669pts of tyranids. :oops: It would be dead easy spending the points to top 20k on useful wargear. Anyone fancy a game?
