April's Achievement

 Just a quick post to show my progress this month. I'm a member of a forum and they have a 'Finish your stuff challenge' so here's my entry for April. I was struggling to get the camera and lighting set up adequately so apologies for the fairly poor pics. 

First up are some Drukhari Wyches. Nails in combat but wearing wet tissue paper armour means they are not the most durable of troops.

Two Venom transports. When I started collecting this army, Venoms were the troops carrier of choice, now they fall far short of Raiders. Maybe when I paint up the Raiders these will be popular again. Nice models though.

This is a finecast Succubus that I acquired and had her first outing last week using the triptych whip and is a very scary combatant. Narrowly defeated by Nurgle Daemon Prince.

My next set of reinforcements for my Crusade army are these guys. Think I will give them dark lances as they scare the Bejasus out of everyone at the moment. 

These are some Drukhari leftovers that will become themed objectives for my games. All credit for the construction goes to Dylan, as he is whom I got said objects from. I have one more made by him and a sixth one in the pipeline.

A Calladus Assassin for when I want to be sneaky as hell. At her feet is an old Delaque heavy's head painted to resemble a genestealer hybrid, so yes, this update does have a cultist in it (or at least a cultist's head).

Finally an old Orlock with a headswap. He also had his leg removed and the missing appendage is sitting on the second level of a tower waiting for a burst of enthusiasm to get finished. He has some greenstuff bandages and a single toe poking out of them. Not very hygienic but perhaps there are communal foot spas in the Grim Darkness of the 41st Millenium?

So there's a quick and dirty update to a) prove that COVID hasn't taken me yet, and b) add numbers to my painted figures ledger. Anyway, be safe and may your gods (or whatever) go with you.
