Scary...yet exciting

So I decided that before I just tackled all my projects at once I would look at 4 things. 1) The armies I have 2) The models I have built and painted for each army 3) The models I have built but not painted 4) The models I have unbuilt still.

The prospect was down right scary however it turns out to be less scary than I thought. So to start out I have listed it as such;

Chorto 4th, IG Army
Built and Painted - 241 Guardsmen(Mix of Tallarns, Cadians and Mordians), 11 Tanks and 3 Super Heavies.
Built not Painted- Nothing.
Unbuilt - Nothing.

This doesn't suprise me as this has been my only fully done army forever it seems.

New Planetary Defence Force, IG Army
Built and Painted - Nothing!(I have chosen a new scheme and order some Pig Iron heads and am converting 150+ lasguns to be "Lange" pattern)
Built - 2x35 Platoons, 2 Bassies, 3 Leman Russes, 1 Command Squad + Commissar and 1 Chimera
Unbuilt - 120+ plastic Cadians(about 14-20 Heavy Weapons), 2 Leman Russes, 2 Chimeras, 1 Baneblade, 2 Sentinals

This is not so bad I was scared a lot more would be unbuilt and I am happy to say that this is my to do project.

Doom Legion, Space Marine Army
Built and Painted - 20 Tactical Marines, 10 Assualt Marines and 5 Scouts.
Built - 30 Tactical Marines, 5 Assualt Marines, 10 Devestator Marines, 10 Scouts, Command Squad, Librarian, Captain and 2 Rhinos, [6 Bikes, 1 Landspeeder, 1 Attack Bike and 6 Termies(I am selling these so they will not get painted]
Unbuilt - 20 Tactical Marines.

I actually thought this was going to be far from being done. I also didn't notice I have almost aquirred an entire Battle Company which is awesome. I think that I will finish these guys up over a few spare weekends I have at my local club.

Unknown Chaos Space Marine Force, Chaos Space Marine Army.
Built and Painted - Nothing
Built - 25 "Inductees"(Conversions mixing Catachans, CSMs and Maraduers to make barbarians inherited into the army) 20 Chaos Space Marines, 20 Khorne Berserkers, 7 Plague Marines, 10 Terminators, Chaos Sorcerer, 3 Chaos Bikers, a Rhino and 10 Heavy Weapon armed Havoks.
Unbuilt - 15 Chaos Space Marines, 1 Defiler(with Bits to make it a Brass Scorpion) and 1 Chaos Terminator Lord.

Actually this army was mostly a series of fun projects that I built for the sake of it. However I have noticed it takes up space and I am attempting to sell it(seriously bryan_lang@hotmail.com if interested people! lol)and I doubt much work will be done on it other than the priming the built models have recieved. I am only going to keep the Berserkers and paint them for a fun project I am going to do.

Host of The Awakened, Lizardmen Army
Built and Painted - 1 Skink Priest, 1 Skink Chief, 10 Skink Skirmishers, 10 Skinks, 20 Saurus with Hand Weapons, 3 Kroxigors, 1 Stegadon and 5 Cold Ones(no riders)
Built - 1 Slann Mage Priest, 1 Old Blood on Cold One, 2 Scar-Veterans on Foot, 9 Temple Guard, 24 Saurus with Spears, 22 Skinks, 10 Skink Skirmishers, 2 Salamnders/6 Skink Handlers, 10 Saurus
Unbuilt - 1 Kroxigor, 24 Saurus, 10 Cold Ones and 42 Skinks.

As this is my chief and really only WFB army I am glad to see so much work is done on it. I will be building up the rest ASAP and then holding off the purchases until it is all painted and I see what I want and need. Obviously the Specials and Rares lack but they will be added eventually.

I should note that any pictures you see of these fellas is not of my own hand. I have actually hired a young painter who is quite skilled with a brush to paint this army for me. I am paying him unit by unit and he has his own armies and other peoples to go as such this army is a slow work I am however more than satisfied with the results thus far so am in no rush with him.

Daemons of Slaanesh, Warbands/Girlfriends Army
Built and Painted - 1 Squad of 5 Daemonettes(Nearly finished only)
Built - 5 More Daemonettes, 1 Masque/Herald of Slaanesh, 5 Vixen Harpies(Furies, converted from Daemonettes to have wings and other bits. Ment to still be Slaanesh) and 1 Fiend of Slaanesh.
Unbuilt - a Further 5 Daemonettes, 1 Pixie Base(Actually count as Nurglings but they are a base of Wood Elf beasties to be painted in our colour pallete and then used with those rules)

As I have mentioned this is not technically my army. I have actually found a girl who likes me and the models and has taken to painting. Although she doesn't play we have been building her a small Slaanesh only army(She loves the new Daemonette models)and I have decided to use it in our clubs little warbands campaign. Of course she does all the painting so any updates you see here is just for pride sake.

Those are actually my only projects so I feel good and I think I can actually manage to make a dent in these by this spring/summer in order to work fully and only on my IG army.
