Basically the idea behind this is to get people involved more in the modelling aspect that is D-co. You might have seen similar things on other websites and this is kinda looted from those, but this of course is only D-co stuff.
On a monthly basis, I am going to be posting challenges for myself or any D-co members on projects that will be done in a certain 30 day time period. These 'Challenges' can be anything that has to do with modeling of anykind, 40k, FOW, Battletech, Warhammer fantasy, terrain, etc., etc. Pictures should be posted in the Army building projects section, if there are any. I am not going to be handing out prizes or anything, but it would be nice if we could keep them out of this part, so that people without cameras can update us on how they are doing.
We are going on the honor system here, so if you say you've done it, I'll believe you.
I will post the challenges in the order that they happen on this main page and recycle the months accordingly.
If you have any questions, post them or PM me and we will get everything sorted out.
'Challenges' for the next month will begin on the 27th of every month, and will be closed by the 5th. There will be, of course exceptions to this rule, and that will be handled on a case by case basis. Challenges will be colored black when given, and turned violet when they are accomplished.
WARNING: It is understood that everyone is not at the same level with modelling. Please keep this in mind if you are critiquing peoples work. I am trying to show off D-co's awesomeness with this, and if we can keep the flaming down to a minimum, I would appreciate it. Non-compliance with this very simple request, will be handled with force. The Hammer of Dawn will be unlocked, and used with impunity on anybody who abuses this, and will be driven off the site posthaste. You have been warned!
Here are the links to past months:

On the ork side, model kustom stompa, I didn't get to that last month and paint a 30 strong boy squad.

Paint as many tyranids as I can in preparation for the new dex! I have just repainted my Carnifex that I originally posted earlier in the year with a newer, easier paint scheme. I will post pics on it shortly!
For the challenge, as far as a number is concerned, I'm saying finish my other two fexs and 14 termagaunts. The new paint scheme should make this quite possible as its pretty simple in nature but still looks cool! more pics to follow...

I added a little to my list. Finished my land raider redeemer, and my two FW deathstorm drop pods.
Will be spending significant time on thunderhawk assembly for the remainder of the month.

| Keep up the progress posts on these first set of boys. It keeps us in the loop and it keeps you focused on the job. The first squad is the hardest. Good work and keep it up.

Well, Warboss Iron Gob is almost done, just need to finish his base and little more detail work and hes done.
One nob squad just needs one more nob to be painted and the painboy to be painted.
The other nob squad has 2 nobs and a painboy to be painted.
Then both squads will be done.
Next up is an 8-man tank busta squad and an 18 man ard boyz squad.
If i can get some work done in the next few days, the nobz will be all done.
