    Hello boys and girls and welcome to Let's Get Motivated - July 2022

    This thread is too get us motivated each month into finishing projects that we have on the go, the rules are fairly simple.

    At the start of the month post what you intend to try and finish this month, it can be models/terrain/conversions of any game type. No pressure if you don't finish anything this is for motivation nothing else.

    Around the middle of the month post your progress, no images please, if you have want to share your progress with images, upload them into your blog and supply a link.

    Around the end of the month post your progress, again no images, if you have finished a piece upload the images into your blog and supply a link.

    The reason I don't want images in this thread is too get everyone that takes part views in their personal blog where the community can critique, etc.

    You don't have a paint blog? well get one started in this forum section.

    If you need advice etc. post here and the community will try and answer.

    I'm looking forward to seeing everyone share their progress

    Grrr, Imrahil

    My goal this month is simple, pick up what I left last time and finish these cursed stormcast. They overstayed their welcome in my Pile of unfinished models and I just want to be done woth them, so I can move on to thing that I will actually enjoy painting. If something elese comes up I'll post any updates here

    Painting goals for this month:

    1. As many of the skorne as I can.

    I really need help with this one y'all. I've been painting red and orange on personal models too, and it's hard to sit through these.

    2. At least 10 fully painted models for the guild Myrmidian, exclusive of the 5 sword and shield boys I did last week.

    3. Finish outstanding warmaster lizardmen.

    This includes:

    1 hero model on foot
    1 behemosaur (carnosaur proxy) without rider.
    3 more regiments of Saurus warriors
    1 regiment or partial of skink skirmishers
    2 fire lizards and handlers

    Sure thing.

    Just to manage expectations, I'm not using the ridiculous base that the model comes with as I'm putting it on a standard 8th edition monster base.

    Due to various unforeseeable "challenges", the goals this month are unfortunately rather small. :confused:

    1. Reorganise my Bitz boxes and organise them better.
    2. Bring some colour to the Skinks unit.
    3. start a new game of Total War Warhammer with the Bretons.

    UPDATE:

    1 & 2 are kind of being done concurrently right now. I've done the basic painting of the Giant and cut the various armour pieces to size (including making Chaos Dwarf runes out of green stuff and sticking them on).

    Next step is to attach the armour pieces and then paint them.

    Aaand they're done, now the only thing left is their gryph hound, but since I don't have a good color scheme for it I'll just let it be until I figure something out.
    For the rest of the month I'll start working on some Saurus and attempt to Save my skink priest, that fell victim to some poor planning.
