I lurk from time to time here, but I actually think this might help get the lead off my painting table and on to the gaming table, so I think I'll give this a shot.

Let's say:
- 3 Assault Terminators
- 4 Masters of the Chapter

Digital camera is ordered and will be here on the 19th.

- 12 Terminators are just getting detail should hopefully be done them less their bases by the weekend. However i'll probably keep touching them up.

- Command squad: The Eagle on the arm, Champion's banner, and detailing has slowed down the completion of them. Still in the process of  writing the fluff behind the chapter and making a unified shoulder pad system for my DIY chapter.

- Haven't touched my Assault Marines yet but i'll get to them.

Lol, I finished my Pathfinders already (pics coming soon). Now I'm working on my Crone Lord (Autarch): SH Wings, Power Weapon, and Reaper Launcher.

Alright, first progress report.

I've only really been working on the scorpion, but the autarch and shining spears are all finished being built and undercoated, hopefully I'll have some color on them this week. Since they're just black right now, I decided you guys wouldn't be too sad if I left them out of the first update ;)

So here's what I've got done on the scorpion so far.

Progress report:

I have 5 boyz almost finished now.  All I have to do is touch up a few spaces that I twitched and made a mistake (which is waaaaay too many of them, so it may take another hour to finish all that), put some nice colors on some of their bracelets, do the mouths, add some blood to the weapons, and do the eyes.  So pretty much just aesthetic details.  ETA: Another 2 hours of work.  Time elapsed: about 6 hours so far.  Most of it today... my neck hurts. :D

On another note, my digital camera has gone AWOL, but if I find it I'll post up pictures once the 5 are done.  I'm quite proud of them; they're the best painting I've done on any minis.  Which is probably fairly sad, since they don't look as nice as a lot of those posted here, but I digress...

I will paint 3 masters of the chapter this month (I'm skipping the Master of Recruits, because I'm rather ambivalent about the model).

I've actually already finished one:





I gave this guy the Master of the Watch's storm shield, because I liked it better on this guy. I also gave him a helmet from the ravenwing sprue, because I'm tired of bare-headed marine characters.

@ Magus : Looks good I gave 3 of my Masters of Chapters Helmets. The only one i couldn't was the one that was holding his helmet. With the guy you painted, i gave him a storm bolter and trimmed it (cut off the clip put it on the side) (took all the bottom off and added a curve to fit the wrist). Your conversion or addition to the model looks good.

@ Kiarstill : Scorpion looks good, not my color of choice but anyone with the weapons pointed at them really has no valid comment since they will be atoms in mere seconds, and atoms can't vote.

@ Myung : really clean keep up the good work

Huzzah, I found my camera, and managed to take some really poor pictures!

Here's my 5 boyz, almost completed (with the one on the far left and the middle one being completely finished).



And then the banner, which I also did today.  It's not that great, and the picture came out horribly (the text at the bottom says Guns N' Axes), but it's not too bad for my first real free-hand.  And it looks quite orcy.



So, about 5 down, and about 5 more to go :D

Vows Updated and will be locked in 3.5 hours.

My progress is good thus far.  Saeryn is done, agonizer is pseudo done.  I dipped him and I'm not sure I'm entirely happy.  Considering stripping him, then trying the dip again with a more...known brand like Minwax.  Also my raptor has the metals done.  The cyclops is depending on the results of my dip.

In before the bell!

Can I change my vow to 5 Fantasy Orc Boyz, a Hive Tyrant and a Tyrant Guard?
