Here goes! I hereby declare that in 2022 I wish to paint all the remaining Chaos Dwarfs in my possession, taking sanity breaks where appropriate to tend to my beloved Greenskins. And Slayers. Can’t forget the Slayers.
Ah very clever, I see what the reserved posts are for.

Thats pretty ambitious @rollforwounds Cant wait to see the progress!
Thats bearly 200 models, and an indeterminate amount of greenskins
Noice!
Can’t wait to see these man-eaters! What minis are you using?
Oh I don’t expect to paint them all, but they’re noted for posterity. This time next year I’ll look back on this and shudder.
Those are from Technolog. They’re Ogre-sized Orc-looking things, so I’m going to proxy them as Maneaters/Golgfag’s Mercenaries. That’ll be a lot of fun.
Update #1: The great Malakai Makaisson, his Goblin Hewer and 2 crew. Also a moustache-less torch-wielding feller. He’ll serve as my BSB (yes, even Slayers need them)
As I write this I have 11 Pirates awaiting highlights. Will post pics in the coming days…
Love this thing, and you’ve done a great job with it! I also really enjoy that bsb, the fire on his torch looks great.
- 11 Slayer Pirates. Yargh etc.
Promising start, if not for the fact that I bought almost as many Slayers as I painted
Added to the pile: 15
Painted: 16
…and so January ends on a modest score of -1. Next up, BATG.
(it’s fine, the phone goblins will redeem me. Trust in the phone goblins)
The prospect of a skirmish game next week prompted me to paint this angry feller. Add it to the minus pile
A simple month. Golden Hat (not pictured), 5 more pirates, a Daemonsmith, a mage and a bubbling lava pit. The hard work was dutifully offset by the addition of Russian Alternative’s fire warriors and 2 x birthday models. Look forward to painting them soon.

Spring should be a good one. I’ve chipped away at several regiments thanks to various work meetings. March may be the month I finish them. And unless The Old World drops suddenly, I think I’m done for additions thank you very much.
March bore the fruits of 40 goblins that I’d been painting over Zoom/phone calls. Keen-eyed observers will notice the banner (from the tribe of Boognish) heralding the birth of the best crossover to date: the Weenskins.
Elsewhere I finished some more slayers, blunderbusses, a handful of Oathmarks, a proxy Gotrek and a hopping mad Orc shaman.
Not accounting for a small troupe of boars, that spells the end of my zoom-call-backburners. Everything henceforth is either naked grey or primed. Lots of fun to be had though! Bring on April.

Odds and ends this month. Made a breakthrough in how to paint Chorfs faster (bright silver spray and contrast/shade down) so hope that speeds things up a bit. Finished some boars, a Dread Squat Dreadnought. Oh and an Orc baby.

I really dig your painting style. Very clean, classic colours, looks great!
Thanks very much! Painted so many Savage Orcs it’s become muscle memory although I do intend on giving them a tattoo makeover…someday…
Nice work!
Loving the Felix!
